Without a doubt, yes, you will get a better smoke flavor with a MAK.
Our MAK puts the amount of smoke flavor that I always strove for, even when cooking with charcoal. It's a good clean smoke flavor that you get with that light blueish-gray smoke, not that nasty over-smoked flavor you get if you don't control your fire properly (you know the kind that has you burping smoke rings).
For homemade smoked sausage, homemade bacon and the like, I get plenty of smoke flavor running in "Smoke Mode" (which is a hot smoke) when I want it, and a slightly lighter smoke for pulled pork, etc. and a lighter smoke for grilling temps.
