HyNoon Report post Posted July 17 Ok , I think this was thread I was actually looking for.... i'm resurrecting this thread because i'm in the market for a smoker and a new grill. Is a three n one combo too good to be true for the camp chef apex? Grill , griddle, and pellet smoker in one... anyone have one ? Good or bad ? I am still on page 3 here so please forgive me if this has been mentioned already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NewlyMinted Report post Posted July 17 I shelled out for a Yoder640 last year.. things a beast. Grill and smoke on it. Built like it’s the last grill I’ll ever own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm worried this is a close out model too and if it does break, I won't be able to get parts for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a 1000 cabelas bucks I was looking to spend Yoder is factory direct, and you’ll need more than double the 1K. Look at the Recteq. They don’t have a unit that smokes and grills with a griddle, but they have a pellet fired griddle. I ditched Traeger, gave my two away and bought Recteqs. Night and day in the quality and function of temp control. Plus they get hot, my Bullseye model gets to 1000 degrees supposedly. I turned it off when it hit 850 when I tried it out .

Holy cow 1000 degrees is hot. Ya I started looking at them last night. They are pretty pricey. But they look like they are very well built. Also the reviews on the camp chef apex are not good and they did discontinued it. I've heard some reviews say that their custom service is less than stellar. So gonna pass on that one.

NOTAGS Report post Posted July 17 The big difference is their heat exchangers are cast iron so once they get hot they stay hot and have very minimal temp swing compared to the other brands stamped steel. Although the overall metal thickness in the barrel etc is very noticeable too. You won’t be disappointed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

J/k it is amazing to watch traeger quality just shiiit the bed over the years. Are you sick of your new Recteq yet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NOTAGS Report post Posted July 17 Nope, still in love with it. Even after the honeymoon phase wore of... The Traeger I sold you actually was pre cost cutting, it worked fine for what it was designed for. It was just that cold weather start thing drove me up the wall. The one I replaced it with was a POS, and I fought with Traeger for 4 months before giving it away. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelney Report post Posted July 17 I also splurged on a Yoder. I will probably have to put it my will as it will outlive me. They have a woodfire pizza attachment that makes great pizza and a blast to use. For those that may have an interest, there are 2 places that I know that sell them locally. Gilbert Fireplaces and BBQ and Scheel's. I also was considering a Reqteq but could not find the model I was looking for locally. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HyNoon Report post Posted July 17 So getting a new traeger might not be the way to go either ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
