Anyone know if the SmokinIt is still building #1 smokers?  I can’t find them on the website and have not gotten an email reply.  Would like to get a nephew one for Christmas as I really have enjoyed cooking on mine.  Is there another company that makes a comparable smoker?

When units are out of stock, they pull them off the website.  They showed #1 a couple of weeks ago so I suspect they are out as of today, 11/17/2020.

If I were in your situation I would wait for Steve to get re-supplied which right now is 1 to 2 weeks.  The smokers are top notch quality!  And a 3 year warranty is hard to beat. While there are other companies, I cannot say there is a 100% comparable model. A similar item has a shorter warranty, smaller wattage heating element, shorter power cord, wheels are optional, no carry handles.  Also, the final cost  from a competitor may be higher.  The Smokin-it forum, compared to other forums is very active and that is important for a lot of folks.  Here is a link to the comparison chart, a little dated, on this forum.
