The quality of the new ones being made has gone way down hill. I have an older version that has been great but it is a smaller one so I got the biggest one they make about 2 years ago and the paint was peeling off the front shortly after and it doesn’t heat up as fast and won’t get up to temp unless it’s summer time. I have buddy’s that have the gmg’s and the quality is much better all around. I think traeger got there name with a quality product and once they got it the quality has gone down hill.

It will not only get to temp faster but maintain a more steady temp (speaking more of winter time cooking). My experience with GMG has been the exact oposite. We bought one for work to save a few bucks and it drives me crazy to cook on it. I'm sure there is a learning curve, but it appears to distribute the heat very inconsistantly. The wheels on the GMG have almost fallen off and overall quality appears to be poor....the temp guage on the lid stopped working after the first cook. They even mount they logo crooked.

I have looked at them as well, but I like the GMG Davy Crockett a little better.
