MASTERBUILT SMOKERS

Roger A — Thu, 09 Jun 2016 16:39:13 GMT

I just wanted let you know . I purchased an Electric smoke from QVC Mastercraft . I used it a total of 5 times. Was in my storeage shed when not being used.

Well it broke down . I called QVC . They gave me a phone number to MasterBuilt. I called them guess what ? It wasn't in warrenty any more.I dissgused with them the problem. Bought a controm mudule from them $30.00 plus tax. I installed it , guess what it did the same thing , would not heat and just buzzed and tic'ed. Called MasterCraft back . And they were going to send & sell me the hole cabinet or box. For a deal &99.00 plus tax and shipping.

I didn't do it. I had to throw it away... I had $370.00 into this smoker I used 5 to 7 time. then it turned in to a boat anchor......

You win and loose some. I lost on this one. I'm not trying to be funny. I just trying give a true story of what happened to me on this purchase from QVC & MasterCraft Smokers.

I am in the process of finding a new smoker now.

You keep saying MasterCraft. I assume you do mean Masterbuilt. Sorry you had problems with yours. We have been using ours for several years with no problems. We love ours. DH bought it at Lowe's when they had closeout sell after the summer one year. We keep ours outside on the patio in the backyard.

I don't know why you felt it necessary to post this 3 times. I'm sure the moderators will delete the other 2 or I would if I could.

I am wondering if Roger is related to the "horrible customer service at QVC" prolific poster.

Mine is okay, nothing great. Even on high it doesn't peg more than 170 degrees.

I wish mine did. I'm almost afraid to put meat in there with such a low temp. I think I just got a crappy one.

You can safely smoke meat at 225, although I don't own a Masterbuilt. We smoke over wood

Another troll, or the same one with the multitude of CS complaints. "Roger" has reported his defective smoker in several other categories.

Just goes to show ya - Even though these thread-bombers always do a hit and run, they come back to see the damage. That's what gives them their jollies, eh?

This has been going on here for years. I think it will take a lot more than that to take down the board.

I just think that the way they handle it could use some improvement. Boards (everywhere but here) will tend to just ban the poster, which automatically removes all their posts and threads.

Trolling is usually an easy thing to make go away, but if they won't ban trolling posters, then it's a free-for-all I guess.

If the late night porn-o-rama spamming from a year or two ago (anybody remember that?) didn't shut down the boards (eventually they did lock them at night before revamping the whole boards), then I doubt that what happened today will cause the boards to be shut down.

Yes, I remember that. Unbelievable.

You can make your own smoker, for about 60 bucks and they are the BEST smokers..........I've been smoking meat this way for about 10 years........after you make it put it on a plant stand so the pot isn't sitting on the cord and you are set....................................raven
