There is a reason they were on clearance for $80.00!! I have had one for about 11 years! but sadly the company went out of business....I have tried to find parts for them so IF and when my unit needs repairsI can get them, but so far no luck!! they are a very well built unit and mine is still going strong, but the time will come!! I am just really glad the they put such a great burner assbly in them, the brass should never wear out!!!
This is a Masterbuilt 7 in 1 smoker:
It can handle up to 50# of food, runs on charcoal or propane, has a brass burner, and smokes moist or dry. It can also do deep frying, boiling, andgrilling. You can get one from Bass Pro Shops for $179, and Masterbuilt carries all the parts you'll ever need at:

I've owned their 7 in 1 mini model for a number of years, and absolutely love it.
