Anybody use a Masterbuilt cabinet smoker? Looking at a 30" electric digital model for Christmas presents for the kids. The more I look at them the more I want one for me. Any opinions?

This is a great smoker. For some good recipes and rub go to Texas bbq rub.
Try the smoked meatloaf. UNBELIEVABLE
I got one last year for Christmas...I love it, wish it was a little bigger though.
I've got a Masterbuild stainless one with digital temp and a viewing window. It does an excellent job, it seems weird to smoke something with all the vents closed but that's how it's done and you get a good smoke flavor using it.
Got one and love it. BPS will be running a very good sale on them Black Friday. I believe it was 179.00
Lowe's has them everyday for $179.00
Not quite apples to apples:
Lowes is the standard black model
BPS is the stainless one with a window.
I've had mine for about 3 years. I LOVE it. It's the one with the window and thermometer. Works well, had no problems. Ribs will be in there tomorrow. Going to get one for my dad.
I bought one about four years ago - I don't know how it ever got UL rating - the wiring in the back of the unit got too hot and shorted out - they may have made it better since then but that thing was dangerous
I have owned one for three years. They did have a problem with the wires on the element burning in two. Mine failed on me but was still under warranty. They sent me a replacement with the updated element and it works great. It looks like they have taken care of the problem.
They did not take care of me - poor customer service - it was nice while it worked tho
I have the 40" Stainless Steel with window and meat thermometer. It works great and no problems what so ever. I use it at least once a week and I've had it for a year. Set it for what ever temp level you want and it stays there until meat is ready. The remote control is very handy too. Highly recommend. http://xs-s.com/zf/images/smile/emthup.gif

Sam's has had the 40 for like 299.00, regular price i have seen is 399.00 http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/wink.gif
Well I pulled the Black Friday thing and raided BPS for two of the stainless/window models for their blow-out price of $179 each. That's the greatest deal I have ever gotten at BPS and was worth the Black Friday effort. On the way home I swung by Academy and they had one Taurus PT640 left and I took that off their hands too.
Now maybe my kids can make me some smoked jerky for once.
