That's the Masterbuilt analog. Not the best for finite temp. control or low smoke temps., but I've been using it hard for over 6 years with no breakdowns. Simple & reliable, since it's really nothing but a file cabinet and a hot plate. Out of the box best smoke made by putting dry small chips like Little Chief brand, or better yet sawdust in pan directly onto heat coils. But if you want to get into more serious smoking with greater ease do one of the mailbox mods. in the other posts or do as I did & cut a couple of vents in box & pick up an Amaz. smoke gen.
