Chefhut Cocktail Smoker Mini Smoke Infuser for Meat, Food,Drinks, BBQ Handheld Indoor Cold Portable Smoking Gun…

Works fine, does the job

Does not come with the dome, bit other than that it's good

When you try this out of the box, it works great. It smokes your sous vide steaks or burgers or your cured salmon just the way you want, so it seems like it came off the grill or out of the smokehouse. But there are two major problems with this particular model -- I bought it once, encountered the problems, bought a replacement, and the same problems showed up again. First is that it simply stops working after somewhere between 5 and 15 uses. I'm not sure why, but I suspect it has something to do with oils in the smoke gumming up the motor or the fan it's connected to? Either that or the motor is just made with something so low-quality that breaks down or melts or who knows. But this has happened twice to me, with two units bought in two different years (I only use it a few times a year), so it seems to be a fundamental design problem. Second is that if you leave the batteries in, it uses them up. I used to leave the batteries in and every time I'd go to use it after a couple of months, the batteries would be dead. Replacing them made it work again. So it's got some design problem where it's always drawing some kind of low-level current that kills the batteries. So if you use it infrequently, you've got to remove the batteries every time after using, and the re-insert them when you're ready to use it again. So the idea and the price are right, and while the battery replacement is a major inconvenience, the motor breaking is a total deal-breaker. This device doesn't last, period. I'm trying a different model now (the onces that sit on a base that take two AA batteries) since their reviews don't have people mentioning it breaking the way this one does.

What a fun gift. I don't taste a lot of smoke flavor but think that's because I don't wait long enough lol. We smoke everything fish, chicken, veggies, eggs YUM!

Smoked well but need different hose adapter
