Yes. I've used one SM055 for about 14-20 years. Just bought the SM045 model (essentially the same, but with electronic controls). The older one had a rheostat for temp setting and was pretty crude. The SM055 was very well built. Stainless steel welded assembly. Before the sM055, I used a ECB and managed to burn a hole through my deck (dumb!). Cookshack people are very friendly and their customer service is excellent. Eventually, I had to replace the thermostat and wood box, but the parts were inexpensive.
I decided to buy the SM045 because of my experience with their high quality, larger grill size (I cook 25 lb turkeys), and better heater controls. The SM045 will arrive this Wednesday.
It uses very little wood, because the unit is sealed with the exception of a 3/4" hole on top. I have never opened the door during cooking in order to baste the food, but I'm going to try it. When I do so, I will replenish the wood blocks (2-4oz).
