I have a call coming from Zach soon. I just don't know what "making it right" in this case would mean. So I will talk to him and find out what he has to say. I hate to ship it back and wait another 2 Weeks...Just call rec Tec they should make it right
Thanks buddy. I feel better this morning. Zach from Rec Tec is going to call me in a bit. I don't know what to do. I don't really want to have to ship it back and then wait another 2 WEEKS... Many say they will compensate me in some way. Not sure.
That is a very good take on things. I am not the type to be cleaning and shining it. Now my wife has a 7K WOLF stove... I leave the cleaning to her... so I don't mess it up! Any thoughts on compensation though? It does bother me that it came like it did.One thing to keep in mind is that the pitting is not going to affect longevity or performance. I know it's still frustrating, but as you use it I think you'll find stainless doesn't look as nice as your old Traeger anyway, which I assume was powder coated. All the soot and grease shows and as others mentioned it scratches fairly easy too. That's the tradeoff for not having to worry about corrosion or paint problems years from now. You'll see most of the grills here look well used fairly quickly. There are a few people that keep theirs looking pristine but that requires a good bit of effort. That's just the nature of a stainless smoker.
Hey do you have one that starts with a G? hehe GGGG. Like a GHarley or GHonda?I've got Motorcycles In That mix too
Grills, guitars, girl (coming up on 17yrs), guns, and motorcycles (road GLIDE) for me tooHey do you have one that starts with a G? hehe GGGG. Like a GHarley or GHonda?
Just had a nice conversation with Zach and they are working on giving me a good solution right now. I am glad I have taken the time to deal with it. I feel pretty good about things. It will either go back and I get one he is personally going to inspect or a fairly large company credit.When I received my bull it had a minor blemish in the power coating on the cover. I had called Rec tec because I had a question regarding the app and during that process I had mentioned it. I wasn’t asking for a discount or really complaining 4 days later I get a package delivered with new lid and some swag. I would give Rec tec a chance to do the right thing. There a great company. It sucks yours came with the cosmetic issues it has. Good luck. I assure you that the Rec tec is worth the hype.

Hey Brian. I’m looking into the SmokeFire. Can I ask why you returned it?I appreciate your kind words, but after a bad Traeger, a returned SmokeFire, I am not sure I am in for the ride.
I am a member of the Weber SmokeFire forum and I had ordered mine from Weber. While waiting for it to arrive many people had received theirs already and reports on the forum and on YouTube with videos were showing everything from complete controller failures, auger issues, hopper feed issues, to greasefires. Even some of the most solid Weber fans were saying this unit is not ready for primetime. So in the midst of seeing all that I just decided to save myself the trouble and refused shipment. I then decided to get the Bull. I am very happy I did! There are happy SmokeFire users out there. I just did not want to deal with a beta product. I am sure Weber will be giving the competition a run for their money. In fairness to Weber I know many people have had someone actually go to their home and fix things! That is pretty amazing.Hey Brian. I’m looking into the SmokeFire. Can I ask why you returned it?
