I first purchased the YS640S about 3 years ago after doing a lot of research on different pellet grills. After I decided to make the purchase I never looked back. My 640 did everything and more from cold smoking, hot and fast smoke and over the flame cooking. After 3 years I finally out-grew my 640 and upgraded to the YS1500S! This beauty gives me the capacity to handle everything I need at home and for large gatherings. I couldn't be happier with my purchase!

I purchased the YS1500 on early 2018 and i can say without hesitation that this is the best pellet smoker on the market! I use it to operate my bbq food truck, so it gets used 6 days a week 12 hours a day EVERY WEEK FOR 5 years. I upgraded to the newer ACS control box so i can keep track of/adjust my temps without even getting out of bed late at night. The 20# hopper will last an entire cook during the summer months and about 30# of pellets during the cold months for roughly a 10-12 cook. I promise you will not be disappointed with the purchase of this unit. You know the saying buy it cheap buy it twice. Stop wasting your money on these thin 100 pound units and get yourself an american made tank of a smoker that WILL stand the test of time!

So I have owned this nearly 3 years and I can say that I have put it through it's paces. I have HUNDREDS of cooks on it and it's an amazing BEAST. It's built well and holds temps so good. The smoke flavor is fantastic and clean tasting. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't get a GREAT smoke flavor off of a pellet smoker. I did have the thermocouple go bad fairly quick but I called yoder and a tech got on the phone, face timed me on his own phone to help diagnose it and had the part overnighted to me and even facetimed me to help install it. AMAZING customer service.

I bought my YS1500 (#18334) at the Fiery Foods Festival in ABQ, NM in 2015. It has performed flawlessly and is still as beautiful as the day it was loaded into my F-350...what a load! I upgraded to the ACS last year which was straightforward and works great. It's good exercise dragging the smoker out of my garage to the patio. Simply said, I love it.

I’ve owned this smoker for over two years now and it has been my favorite cooker since I took possession. That being said I had an issue with the thermocouple. I contacted customer service, and they sent a new thermocouple overnight to me under their three year warranty. This was the easiest, smoothest warranty claim I’ve ever dealt with. The smoker and the company gets 5 stars from me!
