Is Traeger still worth the price, or has the competition caught up?

Specialist subreddit consensus is mixed. Reviewers we read consistently praise Traeger's app ecosystem, build quality on the newer Woodridge line, and resale value, but r/pelletgrills threads frequently note that recteq, Pit Boss, and Z Grills offer comparable cooking performance for less money. The case for Traeger is strongest when WiFi reliability and warranty support matter to you.
