Seems like a decent starter grill. I don’t need anything huge but want to be able to throw something decent on it size wise.

Just bought the 590 and using it for the first time today, so far easy to use and no issues. I'm not even a grilled, I bought it because of peer pressure from Toof

Yeah my main concern is I will get it, love it, and immediately want a bigger one. This just seems very easy and cheap.

I picked the 590 just because it has enough room to cook more.... I playing on it today doing chicken and burgers and next weekend I'm going to try a couple of racks of ribs.

I've had one for 3 months and love it. It's a 22 inch pellet grill (does that number ring any bells? Hint -- the old classic Weber size)

Let it roar for 15 minutes to get the temp that you want stable, and it'll stay within 1 degree of that temp for as long as you have pellets in the hopper. It does exactly what it says it does, and even includes an internal temp probe. You can switch between projected temp, actual pit temp, and probe temp with the press of a button. I usually use it to smoke meat, then reverse sear with Grill Grates, and it works perfectly for that purpose.

People on this board love to say get the biggest grill possible, just like the OT says get a F350 King Ranch Super Duty. The Bullseye is big enough for most people, just as the classic 22" Weber has been big enough for most people for decades.

I got one for Christmas and I absolutely love it. I like the layout of it and feel like I can get plenty of food on it at once.

If you want more of a grill, it’s the one to pick. It’s capable of smoking, but it’s more of a grill. If you’re wanting more of a smoker, than is capable of grilling look at the 340-590-700
