Pros & Limitations

Pros

  • 880 square inches across a 4-rack vertical design is large for this format
  • WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity plus an included meat probe
  • Wood chip tray adds real wood smoke flavor to what's otherwise an electrically-heated smoker

Limitations

  • 100-300°F range is narrower than a pellet grill or gravity-fed charcoal unit, limiting it to low-and-slow smoking rather than grilling or searing
  • Based on brand-level Pit Boss research: WiFi/app connectivity issues are documented across the brand's connected product lines generally

What Owners Say

Summarized from customer reviews and independent owner write-ups — see sources below.

Common praise

  • Independent reviews call out the large 880 sq in 4-rack capacity, WiFi/Bluetooth connectivity, and included meat probe as strong features for a vertical electric smoker.

Common complaints

  • Based on brand-level Pit Boss research (primarily from the pellet-grill lineup, since this specific vertical-smoker model has a thinner independent review history): WiFi/app connectivity issues are a recurring complaint across the brand's connected products

Overall owner sentiment

This specific vertical-smoker model has a thinner independent review history than Pit Boss's pellet-grill lineup, so sentiment here leans more on its feature set (capacity, connectivity, wood chip tray) than on a large body of owner reviews; the WiFi connectivity concerns noted reflect the brand's connected products generally.

Best For

Likely to suit cooks who specifically want a dedicated low-and-slow vertical smoker with WiFi monitoring, rather than a multi-purpose grill/smoker.

Watch-Outs

  • –This unit's 300°F max means it's built for smoking, not grilling or searing — pair it with a separate grill if you want both
