So, it has been more than a few months since this post started and I am very interested in how the rec-tec has performed. Especially as I will more than likely pull the trigger on a pellet unit in 2014.  So, talk to me Goose! :-)

My brother has had my Rec Tec for almost a year now with no problems at all. The only problem we had early on was the fan spinning freely on the motor shaft but their has been a design change and this is a very good pit. Give Green Mountain and Camp Chef the hairy eyeball as well. Both are solid performers and I have reviews of both in the product review section

Not long after I posted to this thread back in August 2013 - I bought a Rec-Tec. And I have not regretted it all. There is nothing else on the market that offers the combination of practical features and quality of build for the price. Period. Get it, and a set of Grill Grates - and have all the fun you can stand!
