The Thuros looks like a very nicely built bit of kit, and may well be worth the money. I like the ability to use it as a cold smoker, or a hot smoker with charcoal. An alternative is the Masterbuilt 30" electric smoker for £219, which offers automatic temperature control, for a similar or cheaper price. The Masterbuilt smokers are not solid stainless steel, but are still seemingly well made. I have the 40" model for £299 and am very happy with it. Any hot smoker can of course be used as a cold smoker with a cold smoke generator.

I use a Webber Go anywhere as my smoker hot and cold. Costs less, small size so easy and 10 guarantee. What’s not to like as I only smoke small items

I do like the look of this. It looks well made, and is a good size for a hobbyist cold smoker like myself. The issue I have is the price, I use the ProQ stainless steel cold smoker and I love it. Is it the same build quality? I doubt it but the ProQ is larger and less than half the price. I use my ProQ a lot but I expect to get many more years out ot it yet, I will probably be pushing up the daisies when it hits the recycling center so would I invest in the Thuros? Probably not. Like I said, it does look a quality item but not a lot more quality than my ProQ for over double the price. How did the eggs taste?

Nice informative video. How long will that generator burn for fully filled? The only problem I've encountered with this type of smoking is you have to be wary of drips .Any drips on the dust , even the smallest of drips will stop the burn. Subsequently I've adapted my smoker and position of generator to eliminate this possible problem. Even after curing and drying food to be cold smoked moisture can still be present

Good point. the thuros smoker does have a drip tray which can catch any drips. the generator smoked for 4 hours in total which is perfect for so e eggs or cheeses

But drip tray is above smoke,subsequently due to lack of holes distribution of smoke isn't 100%

Indeed this is true, but there are cheaper ways of achieving the same result.
