I've used this as a grill and a smoker so far. It's okay as a grill. It works great as a charcoal smoker. I did a rack of spare ribs and they turned out tender with great flavor. Best ribs I've ever made. The only complaint is in how it arrived. The smoker body came out of the box slightly flattened on the sides even though there was no visible damage on the box. I used a rubber mallet to tap the body back into a circular shape before assembly, and everything fit together after that. If Amazon or Meco beefed up the box for shipping I would have no complaints. Otherwise, the smoker itself is a great value.

If you're going to put out such a poor quality product it would be better if you just passed. Materials are as cheap as you can get. Top of smoker does not fit securely. No integrity to retain smoke in smoker.

The workmanship on this product is just awful. Really sucks!

Overall the body of the smoker is structurally stable. However, when I was putting it together, I noticed the barrel was bent slightly and affects proper application of the lid. It is a very simple product to use, but requires attention to ensure the temperature remains stable.
