The Masterbuilt Smoker has generally favorable reviews but with a few performance and design issues. Customers generally like the electric functionality and the ease of assembly and use. However, some users were encountering difficulty with temperature control, with the smoker fluctuating outside the set ranges, and required modifications to work optimally. The size of the wood chip tray was also raised as an issue for some users.

Should I Buy It?

Just keep in mind that some users reported needing to tweak the device for optimal functionality, and you might need constant refilling due to the smaller size of the wood chip tray.


  • Worth it! Great smoker
Size: 30" Window & Legs
So far this has been an amazing smoker. I’ve only used it twice so far in the two weeks I’ve had it but I plan on using it often! It was easy to set up and it held the temperature well. It fits perfectly on my patio with tons of room inside for a lot of food. It’s already paid for itself in my opinion. ... show more

  • A simple, solid smoker that does the job
Size: 30" No Window
I have purchased this smoker twice. The first one ran great for 3 years, but finally the heating element burned out. It's now in my garage awaiting warm weather so I can install the replacement element that I ordered online and will serve as a backup when the heating element burns out in my current smoker. The elements will burn out after a time, particularly when you use a smoker as often as I do (3 or 4 times a week year-round). Unboxing and doing the minor assembly required for this smoker is quick and easy. It took me less than 30 minutes. Spending more on an electric smoker with a window is a waste, in my view, because the glass quickly gets fogged with steam and smoke residue. Besides, you should be cooking to internal temperature with a good remote temperature probe instead of opening the door periodically (letting heat and smoke escape) to check on progress. Speaking of not opening the door while cooking, I'm a huge fan of this smoker's external smokewood loading feature that allows you to add wood without opening the door. Pre-heating the smoker is important in cold weather. Up to a 30 minutes may be necessary. Pre-heating is not so necessary during the warm/hot spring/summer/fall months if the outside temperature is above 60̊ F. In fact, there is a good reason to skip pre-heating entirely on really warm days (over 80̊ F.), as explained in the next paragraph. Of course, the Masterbuilt electric smokers rely on a electric heating element for heat. The element automatically turns off when the smoker reaches the target temperature you set. It then turns back on when the temperature in the cabinet drops several degrees below the target temperature. While the Masterbuilt smokers are pretty well insulated, they are affected by the outdoor temperature. You will find that the element stays on much longer during colder weather, so there is hardly ever a problem getting enough smoke in such weather. However, particularly when the outdoor temperature is over 80̊ F. or so, the element will not stay on as much, which can decrease the smoke production. I have two approaches to this problem: (1) In hot weather, I never pre-heat the smoker. I just put the meat in the smoker and start it "cold." This maximizes the initial smoke until the smoker gets to the target temperature, which can takes as little as 10 minutes in really hot weather if you're cooking at, say, 225̊. (2) Every once in a while if not enough smoke is being produced, I open the door for 30 to 60 seconds and let the temperature in the cabinet come down, forcing the heating element to come back on. This hardly ever results in extended cooking time because the temperature recovers pretty quickly, and if not enough smoke is being produced anyway, you're not letting out a lot of smoke. A lot of my meat smoking projects are under 3-4 hours, and I always use the Masterbuilt for those. I'm only tempted to fire up my Weber bullet charcoal smoker for longer smokes such as ribs and brisket. Tips for easier cleanup: Line the bottom tray of the smoker with foil and be sure to poke a hole in the foil to match the hole in the tray. Also, foil the water pan before every use of the smoker, which makes it super easy to clean. Try it just once without foil, and you'll be a dedicated water-pan-foiler thereafter! Also, get a protective heat-resistant mat to go under the smoker and protect your patio or deck because there will be occasional spills of grease no matter how careful you are. The photo shows my smoker in operation on Christmas Day 2020 -- doing a twice-smoked ham. If you look closely, you can see the clean smoke coming out the vent on the top right of the smoker. ... show more

  • Makes good food, but it's not perfect.
Size: 30" Window & Legs
Not too bad. Good temperature control but a small complaint, the heating element just doesn't really get hot enough for a deep smoke infusion. But even with a weak element, it technically does still infuse some smoke flavor. I'd almost say it's best to consider this a small oven with a smoke infusion rather than a full-on proper smoker. That said, I've found that with the cold smoke attachment rippin full time while you smoke, you can usually get great flavor. I've cooked a lot of good food in this, even did a brisket to great effect running it for about 16 hours (even though there wasn't a true bark, it was juicy and tender throughout). I think the thermometer on this isn't as good as it should be, so supplement with a food thermometer for better results. ... show more

  • Never really worked properly, then the controller shut down
Size: 30" No Window
I've been consistently disappointed with this model, and today I finally decided that it probably wasn't "user error" on my part. My smoker always seemed to take hours longer than it should have to cook, resulting in several delayed or scrapped meals (including on Christmas and a brisket that came out completely dry -- and I've smoked many briskets successfully in my previous Masterbuilt smoker). For example, a pork shoulder that should have taken 12-15 hours would take 26-28 hours. My guess is that the unit wasn't getting as hot as indicated. Yesterday the control unit stopped working mid-cook -- the temperature setting dropped by about 100 degrees without me touching it, I couldn't adjust the temperature any more, and it would turn off completely when I tried to change anything. I had to transfer the meat to my regular oven, and there was less smoke flavor than I would have expected after all the wood I'd burned in it up to that point. It always mystified me that the controller on this unit required you to set a timer for it to work. This feature is not something I ever used or wanted … and if I needed a timer, I would have just used my phone. Since this unit worked so slow, and the timer only went to 24 hours, I ran into several situations where the timer ran out and it turned off in the middle of a cook, further delaying an already slow process. I used to have a similar but simpler earlier version of this model, without the cheap-feeling plug-in control unit on top. That older model was easy to use and reliable, and although I had to replace the heating unit after a few years, it kept working along until a door hinge snapped. These beginner smokers aren’t very solidly built. With this new model, besides that fact that it seemed to run colder than indicated, Masterbuilt made things needlessly complex, resulting in having more things that can break (or never work properly in the first place). ... show more
