The Cheapest Wood Pellet Smoker & Grill on Amazon! / Honest Review! / KingChii Wood Pellet Smoker 

I got one of these for my dad as an entry level smoker for Father’s Day special at Walmart. Nice review thanks!

First time hearing of this brand, popped up on Amazon. Cool to see someone already has a review on it!

Just saw this on Facebook marketplace $200. Like new. Local for me 😁. Thanks for the review.

Ordered mine today. Thanks for the review.

Great review! The internals look exactly like my old Traeger Junior!

I think it's interesting that so many of the partsh look like the ones you find in the name brand units. Thanks for the first look Tom. Looking forward to you telling us how it cooks...

I am looking to get a beginner pellet grill and loved your review. I am going to buy this one.

Interesting grill! Thanks for sharing.

I have a Country Smokers pellet grill, which I believe is the same design as the Asmoke and PitBoss. Can you tell me the size difference in the grilling area? Mine is locked away in storage at the moment.

If you know its 15 or 20 degrees cooler than the display, you already fixed it. That's why you did the test. You have to learn every pit.

Great video. Good constructive feedback. I agree that without compromising the function of the temperature reader, maybe it could be bent towards the back 45° I wonder if it can go to the opposite side of the heat source.

It's cool. Have a good week!

Just bought mine for $225 on a black Friday sale. Excited. Smaller than i thought though.

Tom U Da Man! Thanks for all the videos. I think I'm gonna get this little grill too. Is there a way to manually adjust the setpoint of the controller temp input up or down to compensate for the variance? like a potentiometer/rheostat on the circuit board?

I just bought one for $110 on eBay brand new can’t wait!

I looked up replacement parts for King Chii and almost all are Traeger interchangeable which makes me that much more tempted to buy. Wally has on sale for $256 currently.

$235 gamble. Replacing a 5 year old pb340 that has clipping issue. The height is a concern but think will work. Bigger surface area and 2nd shelf sold me for the cost.

My grill is spot on on the temp but when coming to temp it reads much hotter then it is but settles into the temp accurately over 30 min.

Been digging and cannot find an answer maybe you can help? I bought the King Chii KPG-341 only complaint it only has the one rack for cooking and a second top rack be added?

Mine will be here soon

are temperature probes universal for these or is the a type "t20" that fits it ?

Thinking about getting one of these. Have you made all of the improvements? I'd like to see what you've done before I purchase this😊 Thank you

What about the "smoke" setting? I just got a Damniss which is exactly like the king chii and I want to smoke some meat but when put on the smoke setting temps drop and it doesn't smoke much. Am I doing something wrong or is that not a useful setting.

@tom I just picked one of these up on Facebook marketplace for 150 bucks putting it to use tonight. Kind of watched your video in a few others how to do it. My brother is a smoker and got his help again I ran into some trouble with the temperature. Think it was what you’re saying about the probe did you make a video on how you fixed that issue, if so, could you please let me know and what was the site I could find replacement parts for this item

As far as the thermostat goes, if the problem is not accurate…you could slways drill a small hole in the lid and put a thermometer on the lid

Nice overview Tom. Question, do you notice a big difference in flavor from the B&B hickory lump vs the oak? I love the oak lump and briquettes but my Ace does not carry the hickory. I might have them order me a bag to try out if so. I just had them order me some char logs and have yet to test those out

How is it treating you bud and do you recommended for a low budgets smoker? I just layed my table top pitboss to rest.

What did you find out to fix the temperature discrepancy?

Traeger’s folding pellet grill looks just like this

Would it be possible to put a Wi-Fi controller on one of these?

Is there anyway to hook up a grate clip and extend the thermometer to the center, or where you want it for that matter??….maybe a diff thermometer could plug in the controller somehow to be relocated… if you do this n find out let’s us know

It will be interesting to see if isolating the temperature probe from the direct heat of the burn pot solves the actual/set point discrepancy. It’s no surprise the parts on these pellet grills are interchangeable. This one looks just like the one from the “T” brand except for the price.

What probes do I need to get for one of these? Been reading and see that not all are identical and compatible with all smokers.

Is there a way to dump the pellets for storing?

Could you make like an aluminum foil snake and stuff it between the grate and wall front to back to block the excessive heat getting to the probe? Would be easier than trying to relocate the probe.

Would a 14-16 pound brisket fit in there? Looking to get a pellet smoker for convenience sake and don't wanna break the bank

Hi - how has this smoker held up long term? Would you recommend it or would you suggest a different smoker? Looking to get my first one.

Do you know what the "2023 upgrade" was? I am looking at Walmart website with one on sale, but I can't tell if it is the new design - whatever that is.

Got another question. Have you ever heard of Halo smokers?

Z grill plant makes several other brands of pellet smoker/ grill

The fan makes that much noise? I think my fan doesn't work then

Any updates on making it better? I bought one the same just different name and I can't get the temperature accurate

I have one. Using it for the first time today.

Did you ever move the temp probe, would love to know.

Thinking about buying 1.. How's it holding up?

Would this be ideal for a first smoker or should I spend more and get something better

One of the Pitboss models had the same issue. Where they put a metal bracket in to block the heat

It's a Barbie sized Pellet grill. Too low for me for routine use.

To me it looks like a no name version of a traeger tailgater

This looks like my Grilla Grill Chimp, about the same price I paid. No smoke flavor from these cheap grills, just doubles as an outdoor oven.

Now $245.99 at walmart

Looks very much like my chimp. For half the price.

I need the bouncing ball!!! I can't understand what he saying 😢

Better if they called it the Kim chii pellet grill Korea style rather just the king chii
