WADEO 1500 Watt Heating Element Compatible with Masterbuilt Electric Smoker and Grill, Adjustable Thermostat Cord Controller, Masterbuilt Smoker Parts for Smokers & Turkey Fryers

This is a great kit at a great price, and I say kit, because it includes all of the replacement parts needed to repair your smoker, not just the element. I bought this for my Masterbuilt 30”. Yes, it’s 1200 rather than the original 800 watts, but I long ago replaced the truly lousy controller in my 2016 smoker with an external pid. In my case, this is a major upgrade, so I’m glad my original element burned out. Installation is simple, and this thing works great!

Appreciate the words of scripture 🙏🏻

Smoker started to trip GFCI outlet and I was like 99% sure it was heating element. Takes about 15min to replace and smoker works again like new.

I used this to replace the original element in my Masterbuilt 30 in smoker. It had become unusable, tripping either GFCI or the breaker within minutes of starting the heating cycle. Install was fairly straight forward, though it was tough to connect the ground wire. This really isn't any fault of the replacement part, rather the design of the original unit such that it requires holding a small nut behind a metal plate with about 2 inches of clearance between it and the back of the inside of the smoker and then try to start a small screw into that nut.The instructions could be more helpful, a lot of "do the reverse of step X" and illustrations kind of vague, but if you're willing to try a project like this, you're probably mechanically inclined and will be able to figure it out. There were 2 small nuts in the hardware pack that I never did figure out a purpose for, but since everything works, I guess they weren't essential. Also note that one step requires assistance, so if you live alone, plan on inviting a friend over. One person has to hold the unit in place inside the smoker cabinet while another starts 2 screws into threads on the plate from the outside back of the cabinet.I don't know why they included temperature control as an item to rate, this is just the element that heats, the control is provided by the digital control unit (my old one was still OK), but I will say that, as the instructions asked, I turned the unit on before reinstalling the wood tray and cover. I set to 200 and the temp rose from 86 to that in under 10 minutes and continued to read something like 203-206 for 20 more before I shut it down to finish reassembly.Overall, a good value to salvage my investment in the smoker and the external wood chip hopper that I have come to rely on for brisket and Boston Butt cooking!

My smoker "Masterbuild" was reborn. The heating element is easy to install. A new batch of sausages is ready. I recommend it for use.

Great product and fast shipping.

Worked perfect in my cabellas smoker had no issues just finshed smoking some wild boar and st Louis style ribs and still have not had no issues since i installed this element! Better than spending the money to replace smoker!highly recommend
