Rec Tec Grill Reviews

REC TEC RT-700 Pellet Grill

View on Amazon

Starting off with our list is the REC TEC RT-700 Grill. This one in particular is the largest here but it does pack in features that a pellet grill should have but more advanced. Let’s see.

First of all, the 702 sq. in. cooking space is huge. However, with the optional second shelf, this increases the space to 1054 sq. in. This is maybe too much for many people but if you desired a grill that has a huge cooking space, this maybe for you.

The grill is equipped with a HotFlash Ceramic Ignition System. Hopper Capacity is also big that can carry of around 40 lbs. or 40+ hours of continuous cooking. In terms of controlling the temperature, the RT-700 has advanced features like Smart Grill Technology Controller which uses proprietary PID algorithm. Apparently, there is WiFi Technology included. This can be used to adjust and monitor the grill through your wireless device. A very interesting feature that is surprisingly useful.

What I really like about this grill is that inside the lid, there is an interior light (dishwasher safe glass lens) that is usable when grilling at night. In terms of build quality, the RT-700 is made from heavy duty stainless steel material. It is nice to have it because if you are going to store it outside, it needs to withstand heavy conditions.

For design, the grill has a black and metal finish on the outside. An interesting design take on the handles that it now looks like bull-horns which represents the logo of Rec Tec. Of course, due to the nature of the size, it is big and heavy.

With a retail price on a bundle with wood pellets, that seems like a lot for many people. However if you really want the biggest pellet grill that can cook a lot of food and has advanced technology, then the RT-700 is the one worth considering. But if you are looking for a smaller one that may fit your budget, then the next two may be a good choice.

PROS CONS
+ Advanced Temperature Controls + Large Cooking Space
+ Interior Light
+ Great Build-Quality
+ Large Hopper Capacity
– Big and Heavy
– Expensive

REC TEC RT-590 Pellet Grill

View on Amazon

Moving on to our next grill which is the Rec Tec RT-590 Grill. This one is the smaller brother of the RT-700. It has some similar features with it but some are unique to this one.

Starting off with the inner features. The cooking area is fairly big with a measurement with around 592 sq. in. and with the optional 2nd shelf will increase it to 772 sq. in. This space is good enough for small to medium sized families. Like the RT-700, it is equipped with the HotFlash Ceramic Ignition System. The Hopper Capacity is around 30lbs. which can mean it has a continuous cooking time of around 30+ hours. For temperature controls, it is the same features found in the RT-700 like Wi-Fi and Smart Grill Technology Controller.

Unlike the RT-700, there is no included interior light. Which is not much of an issue unless you desired too cook at night.

In terms of build-quality, it is made out of heavy-duty stainless steel that is durable and heavy at the same time. While the RT-700 & the RT-340 has a barrel shaped construction, the RT-590 offers a unique octagonal shape instead. This gives it more headroom and space in a smaller package. Overall, the build quality and design are superb.

With the price with wood pellets and accessories, the RT-590 is a great grill in terms of price to performance. This is a great grill for grill enthusiasts or if you are grilling dishes for a small to medium sized family.

PROS CONS
+ Advanced Temperature Controls
+ Unique Octagonal Shape
+ Great Build-Quality
+ Good Cooking Space
+ Good Hopper Capacity
– No interior light
– Big and Heavy

REC TEC RT-340 Pellet Grill

View on Amazon

Moving on to our last grill on the list, the RT-340 is no doubt the smallest of the bunch but this does not mean that it is not a great performer. I find this to be a mini version of the RT-700 but retains most of the internal features it has.

The cooking space is smaller with a measurement of 340 sq. in. but with the added second shelf seemingly increases it to 511 sq. in. with the optional second shelf. The RT-340 still retains the HotFlash Ceramic Ignition System and temperature controls like smart Wi-Fi controls and Smart Grill Technology Controller. The exterior features is also great,

With the price for a bundle, it is a great kit overall. If you are looking for a grill that is small and compact, but brings out the same performance as the RT-700. If the smaller size and hopper capacity does not fit your needs, then this may not be for you. Otherwise, the RT-340 is a great grill and will serve you best.

PROS CONS
+ Advanced Temperature Controls
+ Great Build-Quality
+ Good Hopper Capacity
+ Affordable Price
– Average Cooking Space

Wrapping it up

These pellet grills are no doubt, great performers, does have a good set of features like Wi-Fi control and temperature technology plus amazing build quality. Each grill we have discussed on the list are great for every needs of the individual. In terms of overall winner, the clear one would be the RT-590. Why this one you asked? The grill is just the right size for many people plus the octagonal shape gives it more space for many dishes to cook. It also has the advanced features that the RT-700 has.
