Works
This is a review of the 12" smoker tube as I used it. I have a Masterbuilt sportsman elite electric smoker. In order to cold smoke cheese or other low heat foods you need a cold smoke attachment, Masterbuilt sells one for about $60. I saw this tube for 1/3 of the cost and after reading some of the other reviews decided to chance um. To smoke cheese I used a full tube of pellets. Lit the pellets with a propane torch till they had a good burn going the blew out the flames, and placed the tube the near the bottom by the fire box. Filled the water pan with ice to help keep the heat down. Closed the door, top vent wide open, let it go for 3hrs. Had a steady stream of smoke for the 3hr cook time. Opened the door took out the smoke tube with a pair of pliers. 4 inches of the pellets were unburned 1 inch smoldering the rest gone. Used in this way the full tube would have burned 4hrs maybe a little more. It burned a little hotter than I expected and I should have checked the ice after 1hr. Tube put out a lot of smoke 2hrs would have yielded better results (not as heavy smoke flavor), but that is not the tubes fault. I keep a journal of everything I smoke, time, temp, type of wood and so on so when I get it right I can replicate it. I can't say how it would work in a gas or charcoal grill as they leak more air in and out, but the tube puts out smoke as advertised. Tube seems well built how long it lasts time will tell. Aloha

Quality product, works better than expected
This is a fine quality product, especially for the comparably low price, and it works great. I like the hexagonal shape to keep it from rolling while I'm trying to fill it and to help it stay put in my smoker. I've always been skeptical of just how big a difference a tube smoker (don't ever Google that phrase) could make, but I am sold. I have noticed a big difference in both the amount and the quality of smoke taste added to my cooking and I really love using pellets. The tube and pellet combination is a winner! My shipment arrived very quickly and in good condition. I would definitely buy this product from this seller again.

No instructions in package - help please!
I'm not sure how to contact the seller, so I'm leaving feedback hoping someone can help. I got the Pellet Smoker Tube for my father for Father's Day. He uses a charcoal grill and sometimes adds soaked hickory chips to the coals because he likes the flavor. I thought he'd really like this (more smoke flavor, pellets don't need soaking). Unfortunately, this item came with no instructions at all. How full do you fill the tube? Do you just light it, set it on the grill and light the grill? How do you put it out when you're done? Do the ashes from the pellets get on the food? Is there a way to prevent that? Any information is very much appreciated!

Adds smokey flavor to BBQ
This is a great way to add smokey flavor to BBQs. I have had trouble getting a new smoker grill to work, so ended up using this with my trusty Weber gas grill, and while the smokey flavor was not deep, it was definitely there. I am going to buy a smaller one for those times when I don't want smoke for as long a period of time, as I ended up wasting pellets because I couldn't figure out how to stop burning when I was done grilling, even having turned the grill off. The piece is strong and solidly built, will last a long time.

Good Add On Smoker Box
Great product! I used it on my Weber Genesis Grill and. Even on my Weber Summit Grill which comes with a great built in amoker which because of its position on the far right I feel does not reach all foods on the grill. When I make ribs I use this product and place it in the back of the grill filled with chips to fully flavor all!

Very simple and works well
I use wood chips instead of pellets in this. It works pretty well, holds quite a bit of wood. I am still learning to use it on a gas grill. You need to soak most of the wood chips (10 min), or else it turns into a torch on your grill. That's operator error, not a design flaw. The open end makes filling and emptying it very simple.

WOW !!! Just what I needed.
My wife got this for me as a Fathers day gift that I got to pick out. It is made well and will hold enough to smoke the Cherry/Apple can chickens and bratts we are having this weekend. I tested the unit using Cherry pellets on Green Mountain grill and started the smoking pellets with heat gun. WOW !!! THANK YOU SMOPET. PAUL

NICE BLUE SMOKE
My smoke generator went out on my Bradley Smoker. After only using it 5 times. Much cheaper to do it this way and uses product. I bought two of them. Each one last about 8 hours with pellets. It produces nice blue smoke with the pellets that I'm using easy to light with a butane torch a torch it for about 2 minutes. I let it burn about 5 minutes. Then I blow out the flame. And I put in my Smoke Box. The temperature only Rises about 20 degrees from my ambient temperature outside. I give this product 5 stars
