This is one of the newer PID versions of Z-Grills excellent pellet grills. I did a lot of research and reading of other buyer's reviews and settled on this one after nearly making the mistake of buying a PitBoss. First off this 700 2f2 (now the 2c2 on the Z-Grills site) is built like a tank. Very high quality, sturdy build. The set up of heat baffle and drip tray is almost identical many Traeger. In fact the Traeger BAC520 drip liners fit perfectly. As I understand it, the Z-Grill folks have over 30 years experience building grills for other companies which may account for the similarity. It's a heavy duty set up that seems to work very well. I was extremely pleased with the evenness of the heat. I did a bread test and the only hot spot was near the front right edge, and that was only slightly hotter. No searing vents on this grill but I really wanted a quality pellet grill not a flame broiler and with the hot spot problems searing vents give PitBoss owners I'm glad it doesn't have one. I can sear on my charcoal grill, which I still use, and many Z owners have claimed that adding a Grill Grate gets plenty hot enough to sear, if thats something you require. So far I've done wings, burgers, dogs, an 8lb. pork butt, 2 chuck roasts, pork chops, and chicken breasts. All just delicious and no issues with the grill.
A couple of quality control issues I'll mention incase Z-Grills reads this. The instructions have typos and are poorly written in places. It seems some of the steps are logically out of order. A leg was slightly dented which caused the holes to misalign with the barrel making it really tough to insert the bolts. The main power coupling INSIDE the control box was not connected. So when first plugging in and turning on there was no power to the unit. It required opening up the main control box to reconnect. From that point on its been great!

What Makes Wood Pellet Grills So Great?
1. Flavor: The reason professional barbecue chefs use wood is that it provides the best flavor. Pellet grills use all-natural hardwood as fuel, delivering unmatched pure, hardwood taste. Try it and taste the difference.
2. Ease of Use: Pellet grills have controls that allow you to simply set and forget. One button start-up eliminates lighter fluid.
3. Versatility: Unlike gas or charcoal grills, pellet grills have an adjustable, wide temperature range, allowing for 8-in-1 versatility. That means you can smoke a rack of ribs low and slow, or grill a wood-fired pizza hot and fast, and even bake a berry cobbler, all with the same grill.
4. Efficiency: Pellet cooking typically costs less than a comparably sized gas grill.
5. Value: Pellet smokers might cost more than the grills you find at a big box store, but a pellet grill is a smoker, oven, and grill in one!

Make sure everything s assembled.
After receiving my new grill I was Excited to assemble it and to be able to use it for the first time.Assembly went smooth with a few minutes of having to reread some of the instructions. After assembly there is the start up you must do before you cook for the first time. Well plugged in the grill went to turn on the controller and nothing happened. Tried other electrical outlets with the same outcome. Had to call their help line. They were very nice and was going to send me another controller unit. After some thought I finally opened up the inside to where all the electrical connections were and found that the main power supply to the controller was not connected. It is a push pin connector.With the help of my wife and her smaller hands got it together. Presto like magic it works. So that is the reason for the four stars.
