New pellet pooper on Indiegogo

[RonB]

I took a peek at this, but since I'm not really interested in using pellets, I did not read the fine print. But I thought some here might be interested:

Looks like a cheap non-PID controller

My first thought was that it is aimed at people who have no clue about smokin'.

I'm a big pellet grill fan, so I quickly followed the link. If you look close, the controller appears to be a black receptacle cover with vinyl decals, there's a screw loose below it, there's poorly cut gaffer tape over the pit probe wire on the top edge of the hopper the hopper, and the right side shelf appears to be anything but straight. It makes me wonder how much duct tape is inside holding it together.

Man.......this pellet market sure is getting crowded these days. For the most part, they all look the same. Usually with the same, thin construction.

[texastweeter]

the one made by PitMaker seems to be of much heavier construction.

Let's hope so. texastweeter

Z Grills has a strange history. I thought they would have disappeared into the sunset by now, but they keep coming back.

[Huskee]

Indeed. 'Buy 1 get 1 free', or 'buy our grill and keep it for 2 yrs get your purchase price rebated.' Strange.

[Max Good]

Huskee That was nuts. They aren't doing that crazy deal any longer to the best of my knowledge.

What a terrible marketing video. I also noticed the duct tape on the hopper.
