This machine is magical. Ease of operation. Beats Pitboss any day. Great product.

This pellet smoker is BOSS. I LOVE IT. Assembly was as easy as it gets. It was delivered really fast. I downloaded the Traeger app and connected it to my WiFi & smoker very easily. Seasoned the grill then cooked some Ribs. It's so nice to be able to monitor the process with your phone from anywhere. What a time savor. And the RESULTS ARE CRAZY GOOD. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND BUYING THIS. TRAEGER IS THE BEST OUT THERE!

I put off purchasing a Traeger for years. This past summer I went to the county fair where they had a Traeger booth and I spent some time. They were pushing hard the newer Timberline and Ironwood XL. I wasn't ready to spend over $3,000 for one though. They did have the Ironwood 885 there also but because they wanted to sell the newer more expensive models, they acted like it was an unwanted step child and made you feel like a fool if you were to buy it. They did demonstrate all the grills well and did finally sell me on the idea of a pellet smoker though - so I came home and bought the Ironwood 885 on Amazon for $300 less than their "Best Price" at the fair! I have no regrets. Its been 6 months and I use it regularly. My favorite part is turning that bad boy on and the smell of smoke in the air. It is not real smokey - but it is like a campfire, it smokes the most when you first fire it up. It is like a convection oven and being able to set the temperature and let it maintain the temperature control and just sit back outside and drink a beer and smell the smoke in the air is GREAT! Anything you can cook in the oven you can cook on the Traeger and get a great smoke flavor in it. I cooked my first brisket over Labor Day weekend and all my guests loved it. Ran it almost 20 hours straight and refilled the hopper only twice. I am looking forward to doing a Turkey on it in a few weeks for Thanksgiving. I normally air fry my turkey, but going for a spatchcock turkey on the Traeger this year. If you're like me and been putting it off - just do it. I have a hard time making large $ purchases because I am a cheap butt! But Amazon made the impact easier with their 4 month no interest payment option which helped me get over my cheap attitude! :-)

The smoker works perfectly and, after three different meats / recipes / efforts we are very happy with our purchase. I gave 4 stars only because getting the Traeger and the downloaded App working with our WiFi was a three-day exercise in frustration. Online support wasn’t much help. Trial and error (not documentation) finally worked and the App is great. All three smoking efforts yielded A+ results. I’ll be using it often.

Amazon front door delivery! Big Amazon box truck arrived, two very friendly workers removed from truck and placed in our garage. I Assembled a week later. Grill was in perfect shape, super easy to Put together. Grill is a lot more sturdy than our Pro 575, and the Ironwood was a bigger cooking space. Pros: nice square, textured grip for opening main door. Fireproof rope on door where it closes (to keep heat and smoke in). Hopper is large enough to hold an entire bag of pellets, light inside of hopper where there is now a pellet sensor. No smoke stack! We got the bundle that came with the folding front shelf and cover. The “Traeger” brand cover for the Pro 575 was junk, we ended up getting an aftermarket that was a lot better. However the new “Traeger” cover that came in the bundle is an upgrade! First cook, was beer can chicken! Perfect. Ohh, the super smoke option!!!! This is game changing. )Only works between 165 and 225) Cons. I wish Traeger would make a handle light for cooking at night, we bought an aftermarket magnet one. The probe that came with the grill is ok, but I never cook one thing, so we have a 4 probe, probe! Wish there was a better option for the grease catch, we use a mason jar in the tin can, as the foil liners always leaked. And we always use tin foil to cover the drip pan, as the Traeger liners are over priced. Overall it is sleek and sexy compared to the Pro with the smokestack. Totally recommend if you want to upgrade, kinda pricy for your first Traeger, but you won’t regret the cost of this if it’s your first pellet smoker.

I NEVER write reviews of products, but this purchase was so disappointing I just had to write something. I second another review that refers to the Ironwood 885 a smokeLESS convection oven. This thing never produced any smoke once it got through its start up cycle. None. You can't even smell the aroma of pellets burning with this thing. I was in disbelief. I emptied the hopper since the pellets I was using came out of my previous pellet grill, thinking maybe they had dried out too much in the old smoker, and went to the store and purchased fresh pellets. Nothing different, the same result of no smoke or aroma. My wife even asked why she couldn't smell anything while this thing was operating. I tried super smoke mode, no difference other then the larger temperature fluctuations. To add insult to injury, the Traeger app has not functioned properly since owning it. The app stops updating the cook data when it goes idle and then you have to force close the app and reopen to get your updated temperatures and everything else, which is completely worthless. Apparently that began being a major issue around Thanksgiving 2022. Don't believe me? Go check the app reviews on the play store. Traeger drove the app off a cliff, making this anything but a smart grill. $1,600 and the app doesn't even work for months at a time? No thanks. The only way I can see someone giving this a positive review is if they have never owned a pellet grill/smoker before and didn't know what to expect. Even then I can't imagine being satisfied with the purchase at this price level. My old $400 Pit Boss vertical smoker from Lowes smokes circles around this "premium" grill. If your willing to spend this much on a pellet grill, do yourself a massive favor and save a little longer and get one from Lone Star Grillz, Yoder, or one of the other companies that produce actual premium products that SMOKE AND HAVE WORKING APPS. Otherwise, save your money and go buy a cheaper unit from a big box store that will still give you more flavor and a more enjoyable experience. I truly hope I just got a lemon and this isn't the actual experience everyone else is having when it comes to smoke production and flavor. Hopefully Traeger fixes the app so it actually functions for all their customers some time soon, but they sure don't seem to be very concerned with it or be working with any urgency on it as it has already been 2 months of misery for everyone.

I ordered this after my electric smoker had an internal grease fire and burned up. Its easy to assemble and quite large so make sure you have room for it. I felt the smaller one would have worked fine but the additional cost for a bigger one was minimal. First, it makes smoked brisket ez. I've done 2 and both were better than most BBQ places I've been to anywhere in the country. The supersmoke option provided a great smokey flavor and ring. The first brisket was into cooking only 6 hrs and it started to rain. I ended up pulling it off, wrapping in paper and finishing in the over. the bark held up, and it was just perfect. As it's actually burning wood instead of smoldering chips, the flavor is so much better. I'm still working out the reverse sear for steaks, chicken, chops. Starting them out at 225 to just under the desired internal temp and then crank the grill up to 475. Last steaks were great this way. Clean up is easy, simply clean the grates, dump the grease bucket, and vacuum up the pellet dust. The wifi app works really nice, so much better than my other bluetooth smoker. They promote not having to deal with propane tanks but when you think about fueling the grill for long cooks, you use up alot of pellets at nearly $20 a bag. I've done the 2 briskets, and 4 other shorter dinner cooks and have gone through just under 3 bags. Not a complaint, just my experience. The preformed foil drip liners are also pricey but you can use regular foil to save money there. If you have the money, enjoy the flavor of wood cooked foods, and a passion for outdoor cooking, just get one. You wont be dissapointed. I'm very happy with th
