Best grill ever you better get yourself one
The best grill smoker you can get. The one I have now I bought in 2010 and was criticized for buying it by my family. They have all gone through multiple grills and my old trusty treager is still kicking it 16 years later. They are awesome for pulled pork, steak, pizza and even chocolate cake. If you haven’t owned one no better time. I love mine and looking so forward to getting the new model XL

I love it, I use it for everything
My son talked me into getting this. I'll admit I was a little hesitant at first it seemed a lot more complicated than just throwing something on the gas grill like I've always done, my son kept chastising me for not using it. But once I final made the switch it's been fantastic I throw everything on it now and it's super easy. I do have to check and refill the pellets more than I would the propane tank on my gas grill but the easy temperature control and remote management more than make up for it in terms of ease of use.
I still haven't found the time for the big elaborate all day smoke that led me to purchase it (I hope to soon) but just being able to make everyday things from burgers, to chicken breasts better with 0 effort has made the grill more than worth it. Its made it super easier to consistently make everyday meals taste better.

Holy Smokes!
I have the Westwood XL and love it. The temperature holds consistently. The temp ranges from 180°- 450° so you can go low and slow or hit and fast. Love the versatility. There was a nice smoky flavor but not overbearing. The smoke flavor is more of an additional seasoning on your meat and not trying to steal the show. 10/10 highly recommend.

Impressive Smoker!
We've had this Traeger for a few months now and are really enjoying it. Main reason is the flavor of the food, it comes out perfectly, every time. We had a big variety of foods we smoked, including meats, seafood and vegetables. Everything always comes out great. We love using the app to view and control the temperature, to know exactly when the food will be ready. We've used different flavored pellets to, for variety. Easy to add pellets to the hopper. This is a great smoker. The quality of the unit is impressive. It also looks great visually, we're proud to use it at parties and everyone loves it! We love it so much, we purchased an awning specifically for our smoker!

Love the versatility
I’ve been using the Westwood XL and it’s been great. The capacity is huge, so I can cook full meals at once, and it’s really easy to use whether you’re a beginner or more experienced. It’s also easy to move around and easy to clean, which makes setting up and cooking outside really convenient.
I love how versatile it is. I’ve used it for everything from simple cooks and baking to longer, all-day cooks, and even quick grilling for easy meals, and it handles it all like a champ. The extra space also makes prep and cooking feel really smooth, and I’ve been using the side shelf a lot when I’m prepping and moving things on and off the grill.
Overall, it’s a solid, reliable grill that’s easy to use and works for just about anything I want to grill, bake, or smoke.

All the flavor without the big price tag!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This grill brings the best of new tech and amazing flavor at a reasonable price point. I've cooked things from chicken to baked potatoes on it and the consistency in temperature is rock solid. Having control via my phone over wifi is super helpful. My family loves the food cooked with it because it imparts the perfect amount of smokiness... not too much, but enough to bring every dish to the next level! This grill has quickly become my "go-to" because of it's ease of use and consistency. The Westwood XL is the perfect size to feed my family of 5 and then some! I absolutely love this grill!

Assembly and first good went amazing
I love the appearance of the Westwood Xl. The fixed side shelf and bottom shelf will come in clutch for setting down food or storing pellets. It was really easy to put together. The instructions were straight forward and made it easy to assemble solo.
Initial seasoning was a breeze and the first cook wend awesome. Did our Easter ham on it and it turned out amazing. The color of the ham was one of the best looking ones I’ve done. Really awesome grill and held temperature everytime I changed it. The smoke flavor was on point as well.

Traeger Westwood XL Pellet Grill
I can’t say enough wonderful things about the Traeger Westwood XL Pellet Grill! This grill offers precision results with nearly zero adjustments needed while cooking. It’s as simple as set it and forget it while using either the wired probe, or the wireless probe along with the stress-free, user-friendly app. The selected temperature is maintained throughout the entire cooking process. Also, the grates on this grill can’t be left unmentioned. They are sturdy, of superior quality, and are quite easy to clean. That’s a huge plus! I have grilled many different kinds of foods on this grill, and I’ve been absolutely impressed that none were less than perfect. Two thumbs up for the Traeger Westwood XL Pellet Grill!

Love The Taste of Food On My Traeger!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best grill that I have ever had in my life. The taste of the food that I make on this grill is A1. The meats are extremely tender, and have a mild smoky flavor, depending upon what flavor of pellets that are used. The grill is very sturdy and was made of high-quality materials. Putting it together was pretty easy. It took two people to do so, and the instruction manual detailed every step of the way. I had a little trouble connecting my grill to my Internet. I had to try multiple times. I recommend putting a sheet of aluminum foil under the grates on the pan. I started out not putting foil down, and when I tried to clean it, cleaning the pan under the grates was not easy. Foil will catch the drippings but make sure the foil is changed regularly. Filling the pellet hopper was also easy, just remember to check the pellet level before each use. I struggle to keep the app connected to the grill. Sometimes it disconnects, and I am unable to get it back online after following the instructions in the manual. Using the app is extremely convenient. You can monitor the grill’s temperature and watch the timer right from the app. The wheels on the grill are plastic, I think there is an opportunity to make them more robust since the rest of the grill is made extremely well. Be sure to regularly clean your grill so a fire does not occur. It is important to keep it clean and well maintained. Love my Traeger!

A truly great smoker
I love this smoker. It is easy to operate with intuitive controls. Pairing with the app and wireless thermometer make it so simple. I have tried a variety of meats and recipes and have loved each one. It is fun to experiment with flavors because the smoker truly does all of the work. I would recommend to everyone.

Fantastic Pellet Grill with Tech
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was able to test this grill and fell in love with it. I love that it has a thermometer probe that connects to ensure a perfect product each and every time. The app is a wonderful resource that allows you to choose a recipe if you desire and loads the temperatures and cooking times automatically. Of course, you can always manually adjust through the app or the touch controls on the grill.

A MUST HAVE! I'm Hooked!
This pellet grill can be described as AWESOME! I am in love with the way it cooks food with such consistency. Everything that I have cooked on this grill has turned out juicy and flavorful. It has won my husband over! We constantly try new Trager recipes on the grill and they result is fantastic! The grill is so easy to preheat, use, and clean. The temperature is consistent throughout the cooking process. The pellets last a long time no matter how long I cook on it. This is my FAVORITE grill!!!!

Amazing Grill!!
I was thoroughly impressed with this grill right from the start. It came well packaged and was very easy to assemble. Time from unboxing to burn-in was less than 2 hours and we were off to the races.
The app was very intuitive and easy to use. It allows for temperature monitoring and adjustments remotely without having to touch the grill. The guided recipes are amazing.
As for cooking on the Westwood, it couldn't be easier. It really is set it and forget it. My cooks consistently came out great. The smoke from the pellets really infused that smokey flavor that my family loves. Switching from low heat to high heat cooks with just a simple button push makes this grill super versatile and easy to use.
I would recommend this grill to anyone!!

Consistently good
I’ve done around a dozen or so smokes on this so far and it’s consistently performed how I needed it to. The temperature stays consistent with little to no fluctuations, making each cook a smooth experience. The technology on this Traeger is a highlight for me. It’s fast, responsive, intuitive, and overall super easy to navigate. Each item I’ve smoked comes out brilliantly. Overall I’ve been very happy with this smoker.

A Great First Step Into Pellet Grilling
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Westwood XL Pellet Grill is my first pellet grill after years of cooking on a propane grill, and the switch has been a really positive experience. I was a little unsure about moving away from propane, but after spending time with this grill, I’m glad I made the change.
What stood out immediately was how easy the Westwood XL is to use. Temperature control is simple and consistent. Once I set the temperature, I can trust the grill to maintain it without constant monitoring. That reliability has made longer cooks, like ribs or pork shoulder, much less stressful. And the app allowed easy monitoring when I did want to keep an eye on the temperature.
The flavor difference has been another big upgrade. The added wood‑smoked taste is noticeable without being overpowering, and it’s something I could never fully replicate on a propane grill. Everything from burgers to chicken to low‑and‑slow barbecue has come out with better depth of flavor.
The XL size is a big plus as well. There’s plenty of cooking space for family meals or entertaining, and the layout makes it easy to cook multiple items at once. Build quality feels solid, and the grill holds heat well even during longer sessions.
Cleanup has also been easier than I expected. While pellet grills do require a bit different maintenance than propane, the process has been straightforward and manageable.
Overall, the Westwood XL Pellet Grill has been an excellent introduction to pellet grilling. It’s user‑friendly, delivers great results, and has made outdoor cooking more enjoyable than ever. If you’re considering switching from propane to pellets, this grill is a strong option and a great place to start.

Incredible consistency and unmatched flavor!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been incredibly impressed with my Woodridge. The consistency it delivers is unmatched, taking all the guesswork out of my weekend cookouts. Whether I'm doing a low-and-slow pork butt, racks of ribs, or a whole turkey, the temperature control is rock solid, so I never have to babysit the grill.
It provides the perfect amount of authentic wood-fired smokiness, elevating the natural flavor of the meat without overpowering it. The versatility of this grill makes it easy to tackle any cut I throw at it. Highly recommend it to anyone looking to level up their barbecue!

One of the better ones
I have loved every minute of this Westwood from the time I opened the box !!
I have 8/9 Traeger Grills and this by far was the easiest fastest build ever !!
I did not even get past the 2nd beer !!
From the first cook - the famous “chicken cook” to a 21lb prime brisket I have done - this one is my new favorite!
The grill does not have the super smoke option but you would never know !! The bark and smoke flavor this grill creates is as good as a lot of the other grills I have !!
The cooking space is stellar - the fold up top shelf is key for packing the Lower grates and getting all the way back to flip that protein
From big game meats to desserts and everything in between the consistency of the grill and the cooks are 2nd to NONE
The controller is so easy to use, the options with timer, the temperature control, the Internal Temp probes and the keep warm is as good as any other Traeger Controller
The hopper is the perfect size for this grill !!
My only issue with this grill…….. the lower shelf install is a pain in the butt (it throws the grill off balance if you follow the exact directions - use a prop and it’s perfect)
This grill is a 10/10 all across the board in my book!!
OUTSTANDING!!

Excellent, reliable, quality grill!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an excellent smoker, just get it! I've never owned an electric smoker like this before! This one produces deep flavor, tender and juicy meats and consistency over all of my cooks. The smokiness level is just perfect as it forms a delicious and juicy crust around all the food. The temperature is easy to set and adjust from the unit itself or from my phone, and raising the temperature is just a few clicks of a button. When compared to my weber, the metal used on this grill is considerably thicker and better quality (no rusting!) I have yet to experience one issue with this grill. In addition, the XL size has been perfect for my family of 6. It's been able to accommodate any size meat that we use without issue. My only advice, if you get this grill, is to make sure you choose quality pallets and buy the wireless Probe (or the wireless and the wired probe if you want to monitor the temperature of two different meats at once).
