GE Profile™ Smart Indoor Pellet Smoker + Accessories Bundle, Includes Four 1lb Bag, Strainer, 20-pack of Drip Pan Liners, and Prep Tray, Stainless Steel, Carbon Black

EXCELLENT ... EXCELLENT ... EXCELLENT ... cooks perfectly / smokes incredibly well ... especially for indoor use ... was SUPER hesitant to try this inside our small apartment - but - it's not that bad. There & will be "some" residual smoke smell in any normal indoor space - "if" we had a separate area with a fan - like in a normal house - you could use it in a attached garage - or - laundry room etc ... or use it in a covered outdoor patio & you don't want/need a full size smoker then this little guy is your Perfect answer. Not huge inside the cooking space - so - you need to plan accordingly & I was also hesitant about not getting the same cooking results between the three layers - but - this little guy's internal heat circulation & smoke circulation was really well engineered & I've yet to find a fail between the three cooking levels. It's cook & smoke just as well with one tray as it will with all three loaded down. In my first go - I cooked & smoked 10lbs of Brisket divided between the three layers & didn't fuse by shuffling the various tray's during the cooking cycle. 8 hours came & went & the Brisket turned out perfectly. Tasted like it was cooked in a professional grade smoker & being served out @ a $100 a plate - our guests loved ... loved ... LOVED it. Next I did a whole chicken - same deal - cooked perfectly. Chicken breasts next - came out perfectly. The soft app which you can get download & installed on my iPhone 16 without issues - there have been various posts about the app having issues with iPhone 12's & lower versions of iOS - my 16 originally was iOS 18.x - installed without issue & then when I upgraded to iOS26 - the app upgraded without issue. Some folks complain it's a pay app - it's NOT - you can Choose to buy a subscription - which gives you access to generic smoke recipes - the same recipes you can find on the web for free - so - ya - the Subscription is NOT worth it ... the App works just fine for the basics of monitoring your cooking - the smoking process etc ... in the 4 months we've had this little counter smoker - it's NOT that little when it's sitting on the counter - about the size of a half sized mini fridge - but weighs more ... I use the term "little" when comparing it to other patio sized smokes - or - "other" outdoor sized smokers. The BIGGEST advantage this little smoker has over other products on the market ? - it TRULY is an indoor smoker :) ... & it works VERY well ...

You're buying an indoor smoker? This is the only one you can get on amazon right now, and it is priced accordingly. I see a few of these reviews saying the included recipes are not great or overcooked their food and don't mention the marvel of smoking indoors. If you've never smoked or cooked anything before you might find those same results. Do some research and make adjustments to the recipes as needed. Lower and slower is a safe bet almost always. The hot air expelled by the smoker smells like you're smoking meat, it smells like smoke and meat. If this is a problem for you it is because you don't like smoked food, what are you even doing sitting there reading this? There is no visible smoke coming out unless you open the door without clearing the smoke, which can sometimes be janky when clearing smoke near the end of the cook cycle (takes 10 WHOLE minutes) if the cycle ends before the smoke clears you have no way of knowing if the smoke is actually cleared or not, but I think it's fine because my alarms never went off. Cleaning took a bit of elbow grease to get it like new, foil in the bottom tray helps, but it's not absolutely necessary to get every rack like new after each use, dishwasher works wonders on those, I like cleaning the glass every time to be able to see in with some degree of certainty, use a flashlight because if the top rack is full it is hard to see into the bottom, but your phone light works fine too so it's a weird complaint. Yes it uses a lot of power, it's an electric oven, the pellets are for smoke only, not heat. I had it on the same circuit as a small chest freezer in my apartment and when the freezer kicked in it tripped my GFCI, run it on a mostly empty circuit for long smokes to be sure it doesn't get tripped. I won a 500 dollar gift card from my employer and it went on sale the same week as if it was meant to be, I've done several batches of wings with the included recipe thar were flawless for the flavor, cook time, and cook temp (minus like 5 degrees but still damn close to perfect there). Ribs recipe was overcooked but still edible, but the second batch of racks I did lower and slower turned out perfect. Going to be doing a bigger roast this weekend using a recipe straight from the internet recommended from a colleague that I'm sure will be great, will update if not. This is an amazing tool for anyone looking to get into meat smoking from an apartment. Even considering there are zero alternatives for this product they made something special here and I would be shocked if China could make something better for less. Maybe if the market stays strong other companies will compete for the space, that would help everyone with that kind of competition and I think this unit will fare pretty well until major improvements of design or major cost savings for same quality happen. If you want to smoke indoors the price is only based on what you are comfortable spending, if you can or already do smoke outdoors you should keep clutching your pearls and act like your above such a product. I will be buying a house this year and will continue to use this product until I need to cook for more than just me and the wife because it is only really able to cook for two people (maybe 4 if you eat as little as she does). Looking forward to smoking some veggies after the roast!

Wouldn't use it in my kitchen, but inside the garage works well. While it doesn't leak smoke, it does have a rather strong odor which is probably from it treating the smoke. It's exactly the size I was looking for that will handle meat capacity for 2 - 8 people. Easy to clean. Good phone app control of the temperature / probe temperature, remaining time, etc. Decent value for the money. Amount of smoke inside the chamber and smoke flavor absorbed by the food is acceptable. Capacity is good for a few people, but would need larger if you're cooking for a larger get-together.

If you are seeking a real smoke flavor on your foods do not get this. I just had one which I returned this week after embarassing myself making wings and pork butt for my super bowl party. The wings and pork butt turned out great but there was absolutely NO smoky taste and I made sure I did customer settings regarding cook time AND level 5 smoke which is the highest it goes. Maybe it was the pellets that came with the Smoker but it was a major disappointment. I live in Michigan with horrible winters so I thought this would suffice for days I cannot use my big Traeger smoker outside. For the price I was not keeping it because I don't need another oven. If you don't mine no smoke flavor or extremely mild smoky flavor it's a great oven.

My husband and I both love smoked meats and fish. We have 2 outdoor smokers, a Weber for larger foods and a Ninja Woodfire Pro XL. This fall, I smoked a number of meats, a large turkey, 6 pork roasts, 6 chickens, 6 lbs. of chicken wings, 8 racks of ribs, and 2 bison roasts to be frozen for future winter dinners. After all of this, I was thinking how nice it would be to have the ability to smoke some of these and smaller portions indoors as needed. Then I found this oven. Before buying it, I watched a number of YouTube videos and read numerous product reviews. The videos made it sound like a great appliance and the product reviews varied (poor reviews are common that don't always blame the product). Although this smoker is far from inexpensive, I decided to take the plunge. When I received it, I did all of the manual's recommended cleaning and priming of the auger using the supplied wood pellets. For my first smoke, I decided to smoke salmon filets. I downloaded and used the app to set up this smoke that was really easy since there were no problems connecting the smoker to my network. I have to say my first experience with this smoker was a total disappointment. I set up smoking for the salmon in the app using the probe, an oven temperature of 225 degrees, and a done temperature of 130 degrees. Preheating of the oven took about 20 minutes. I put the salmon in the smoker and connected the probe to the oven. To my dismay, there was no smoke before the salmon was done cooking. The salmon was cooked well, but no smoke flavor. Determined to find out whether the problem was me or the smoker, I did 8 tests of this oven that night and the next day. What I found out was that the 20 minute preheating of the oven was not igniting the wood pellets and after preheating, it took an additional 10 minutes for production of smoke. This is the reason my salmon was not smoked since it was cooked before the smoke started. Since I wanted to find out if this was normal, I called GE support for this oven, and the agent I was connected to was very helpful. She felt that my smoker was defective because of the excessive preheat time and the time it took for smoking to start, and suggested I return it. She told me this smoker is still being improved, and GE would replace defective smokers with the newest versions and not refurbished units. She also told me that this smoker does not fill the oven with smoke as suggested by some of the videos - most of the smoke is at the top of the oven. So, placing foods at the top of the oven will produce more smoke flavor. I talked with this rep for about 2 hours and have not described everything here, since this review is getting very long. I was left with the feeling that GE is totally supporting this smoker even if it is past the warranty period. I have decided to exchange this oven since it is still within the return period with Amazon. Even so, I did find a way to smoke foods that don't take much time to cook. I initially set up the cook as a timed cook for 25 minutes at the desired oven temperature. Once I start the timer, I wait until I can see smoke coming into the oven. Then, I connect the probe and put the food in the smoker, change it to use the probe, and set the probe temperature. By doing this, the smoke is going as soon as you put the food in and continues throughout the cook. If the smoke lessens, it helps to use the included brush to poke the pellets and loosen any possible clogs. This smoker is the perfect size to fit on the space allowed portable cabinet. Since I have a replacement oven coming, I will update this review if some of the problems have been resolved. Update 12/25/25: I did receive the replacement oven from Amazon, and it is an update version of the first oven I had (serial number ends in 2BB vs 1BB of the previous oven). Results of my testing were slightly better than the testing of the 1BB oven. 1) Preheating of the oven to 225 degrees took 23 minutes. I set up the oven initially to use the timer for 25 minutes. After it preheated, I pressed start to get to the smoking mode. Some smoke was visible after 5 minutes. 2) I waited a couple more minutes for smoke to increase before toggling from temperature to probe. 3) After toggling to probe and setting the done temperature, I plugged in the probe and the smoke continued. 4) The smoke seemed to fill the chamber with more smoke than the 1BB version. In conclusion of my testing of the 2BB version of this oven, the quantity of smoke was slightly better. I found that it helps to use the provided brush to push into the pellet chamber to make sure it is not blocked. For foods that don't take much time to cook, the method of preheating and starting the smoke with a timed cook and then toggling to using a probe works well. For longer cooks, such as roasts or whole chickens, the 5 minute lag time for smoke shouldn't make much difference when set up with a probe. Another fact I did find out from customer service is that a defective or broken smoker can be replaced by customer service if you are not in a service area. If you are in a service area, they will send out a technician to repair the oven or determine whether the oven should be replaced. I did smoke a couple of salmon filets using the method described above, and they were perfect. After toggling to use the probe, setting the done temperature to 130 degrees, plugging in the probe, and putting the salmon in the smoker, the salmon was done in about 15 minutes. The salmon filets were moist and had a smoke flavor. - just perfectly cooked. This indoor smoker has a lot of potential, and hopefully, GE will continue to improve it to make it easier to use for items that don't take much time to cook and to do a better job at creating more smoke to fill the oven. . I hope this review was helpful for you.

If there is one thing my husband is committed to, it’s the idea of being a Pitmaster. The reality? He’s more of a "Master of Ordering Pizza." When he insisted we needed the GE Profile Smart Indoor Smoker, he sold it as a life-changing culinary revolution. It was going to be brisket for breakfast and smoked salt on everything. Fast forward three months, and this sleek, high-tech cube has spent more time looking at me from the counter than it has actually seeing a piece of protein. The "Husband Logic" Breakdown The Sales Pitch: "Babe, it has Active Smoke Filtration! We can smoke a rack of ribs in the kitchen without the fire department showing up!" The Reality: We have, in fact, smoked exactly one rack of ribs. They were delicious. They were succulent. They were also the most expensive ribs in history when you factor in the "cost-per-use" of a $700 appliance. The Current Status: It has become a very expensive, very shiny pedestal for the mail and a half-empty bag of pretzels. Why It’s Actually Great (When He Remembers It Exists) To be fair to the machine, it’s a feat of engineering. If you’re married to a man who treats kitchen gadgets like Pokémon—gotta catch 'em all—at least this one works: Zero Smoke Signals: The filtration is legit. You can stand right next to it and not smell like a campfire. It’s perfect for people who want the flavor of the South but live in a condo in the suburbs. Set It and Forget It: It’s so "Smart" that it basically does the work for you. Which makes it even funnier that he can’t find the energy to press the "Start" button more than once a fiscal quarter. The Pellets: It uses tiny little pellets that are adorable and easy to store—perfect for taking up space in the pantry next to the air fryer he "had to have" in 2022.

Hands down the best appliance I've ever had, and I just had a complete remodel of my kitchen with all new appliances, and this is still the best. I love smoking ribs, wings, & fish. I also love smoking corn 🌽 asparagus, brussel sprouts and even bread! Plus, I love the way that it works with your phone and it has controlled lighting too. It's so easy to use. There's no smoke smell. You typically will have a slight wood potpourri, smell. The smell of fresh cut wood, not the smell of smoke. That's if? ... you smell anything. I truely wish that I had this appliance back when I was in an apartment. Because I couldn't grill or smoke at the time unless I was to drag my grill outside my apartment. Do everything all the B.S... then I have all the cleanup later inside and outside. With this its so .... much easier, it's pretty much set it and forget it. Monitor it with your phone if you want to. It even has a time reminder you can setup with your phone. The app is very basic, a child could set it up for you. G. E. couldn't have made this easier and better unless maybe they attached a camera to it. There's nothing like throwing ribs or chicken in the unit. Setting it for 2-4 hours Only coming back. When the phone tells you, it's done. * Then press smoke out. And you are set to eat the best food ever! There's even some great smoking vegetable recipes that you can use with this unit too. Like smoked asparagus, corn or Brussel sprouts. If you wanna get the best use out of the unit, you have to think of it as a smart air fryer with smoke. You can watch it just swirl the smoke around your food. Infusing the best smoke favor. Things that it could have had. 1.) I think it could have come with a brush. To clean out the under waterbin area cause sometimes, when you pull out the water bin, you have some remnants of wood that falls into that area, this will cause an error that the bin is open. It would be nice to have like little paint brush style brush sweep that out. 2.) It would be nice to have a wood scoop too. 3.) A small pan with holes for air frying and cooking in general * Kona. does sell net like screens for it, but it's not a pan. Everything on this appliance works to A. T... it's just a matter of getting it at the right price. *** For all the reviews, that says it smells like smoke. They obviously did not read the instructions. * You must push, " Clear smoke " before opening the unit! * Also time to time it doesn't have smoke. If that is the case, you have to push the clear smoke button. It seems to eject all the wood pellets, or lack of pellets. Push. Resume smoke and then it will start on a new batch of pellets. If that doesn't work. Clean the interior smoke outlet on right and then "toggle" the unit by pushing toggle. This cleans the wood auger that pushes the wood to the flame. After that it smokes like it was new again.

It stopped burning the wood pellets after 9 months of ownership, maybe about 20-25 uses. It was replaced under the one year warranty. The new one they sent me is already having issues after 2 uses. It got stuck in preheat mode and then wasn't burning the pellets again, tray was full of unburned pellets after smoking at smoke level 5 for one hour and then it started burning them. GE will not give you a new warranty if they have to replace it. I paid 600 dollars so I feel like I got hosed. Do better GE! Imagine buying a dishwasher and it stopped working inside a year there would be a recall right?
