Regal Pellet 400

The smaller-cookbox version of the Regal Pellet 500, with a 500 sq in primary cooking area and the same WiFi/Bluetooth control and 22 lb hopper.

$1,199Approx. MSRP

A reasonable compact pellet smoker for a beginner wanting hands-off smoking, but go in expecting occasional controller quirks.

Pros

  • Smaller footprint than the Pellet 500 while keeping the same core smoking performance
  • Good smoke flavor and consistent results when the controller behaves
  • Simplifies smoking for beginners compared to a stick-burner offset
  • WiFi/app control — watch the cook from your phone
  • Big hopper (22 lb) runs long unattended cooks

Watch-outs

  • Shares the same controller reliability concerns as the larger Pellet 500
  • Fewer racks/less capacity than the 500 for large cooks
  • Electronic components add a failure point a basic charcoal or gas grill doesn't have
  • Heavy (220 lb) — pick its spot and leave it

Known niggles

  • Same controller line: temperature-holding issues and occasional random shutoffs reported by some owners
  • Firmware/calibration complaints similar to the 500 model
  • Auger jams reported occasionally
