I was on the phone earlier looking to order a YS1500 and the salesman on the other line mentioned that pitts and spits model is quite good and has PID controller and is fully welded. I know people have asked the question before about the PID and the general response has been that the yoder firmware is better. Can someone explain why its better? Also does yoder YS1500 come fully welded?
I think the smokers that you are looking at are in two different classes. The YS1500 is a dump truck. Since you don't mention a S&P model, then I can only imagine that it's a pickup truck at best. This is like comparing a fine chop house in downtown St Louis, to a Starbucks in SanFran. I'm out on this one. Can anyone help?

The off-brand cooker is a Traeger clone, with a small round firepot. Heavy metal construction will not overcome this, nor the difference in the controllers.
