What are you thinking of using it for? low and slow? I would also look into gravity charcoal, I have been using a masterbuilt 560 for a year or so, and it has been really good. The benefit over pellet is the ability to crank the heat right up and sear stuff as well as low and slow.
Low and slow, yeah. I can do it in the weber but it's a bit of a pain to keep and eye on. I'll have a looks at the masterbuilt. Is it pretty much set and forget?
Yep, no different to a pellet grill in that sense, light it, set the temp and leave it to cook, I have done 24 hour cooks on it, all I have had to do is refill the hopper once during the cook.
There is also a basic app, so you can monitor and change temps from your phone as well.
