The shipment experience was exceptional. It arrived on the date that was estimated. The assembly instructions were straightforward and easy to follow. So far I have smoked four briskets on it and they turned out beyond expectations. This smoker has held temp like a champ all four times and did not waiver. I would recommend Z Grills to anyone looking to buy a new smoker grill.

Great smoker for the money.
I ordered the 7002C2E smoker as part of the “Buy 1 get 10” deal on Black Friday. The unit arrived in about 2 weeks, and it was remarkably well packaged. The instructions weren’t perfect, but they were decent. They could’ve been a little more detailed, especially in stating where some of the parts could be found. For example, it took me a while to find the axels for the wheels because they were tucked in the box with the chimney. Assembly took me about 1.5 hrs, and the components appeared to be of good quality. Initial burn-in was easy. The next day I cooked a spatchcocked chicken, and it exceeded my expectations for a first try. The temp probes and WiFi feature made cooking the chicken a breeze. It’s probably my favorite feature of the smoker. I did burn through a lot of pellets, but I live in Northern Michigan, and it’s winter. I think I’m going to have to spring for the thermal blanket. It’s still early in the game, but so far I am very pleased with my purchase.

Easy to assemble, good burgers
The grill was simple to assemble, took me a little over an hour doing it by myself, could have been faster if I had waited for an extra set of hands. Fired it up and did a 30 minute burn off before tossing burgers on for that first cook. I'm coming off a gas grill, so the pellets give it more flavor, similar to charcoal, but also adds that smoke flavor to it. Burgers were excellent and had a decent sear. Looking forward to many cookouts with this thing.

Surprisingly good grill
I decided to give the Z Grills 1100 a shot because of a promotion they ran: buy 1, get 10. For just under $900, I was curious but skeptical. A deal like that made me think these grills couldn’t be all that great.
For context, I started with a Traeger but wasn’t impressed, so I moved to Recteq and absolutely loved it. However, upgrading to a Recteq of this size would have cost me $1,299—just for one grill. So here I am with the Z Grills 1100.
After 3 months of use, I’ve smoked Boston butts, pork chops, burgers, ribs, and even four turkeys for Thanksgiving. To my surprise, the results have been on par with my Recteq. There’s a slight learning curve with this grill—particularly avoiding the bottom for longer cooks, as it can burn—but once you get the hang of it, it’s smooth sailing.
Considering the price, I highly recommend the Z Grills 1100. It’s an excellent value for the quality and performance you get.

The 700D Zgrill
I recently bought the 700D and I'm totally impressed. It keeps a even cooking temp throughout the cook for low and slow and high heat. It has one of the biggest hoppers for the all day cook. This grill looks great, cooks great and the price was right!!!
