Hey everyone, Looking at a used 575 for $350. It comes with the insulation blanket, front shelf, and cover. This would be my first pellet grill so any tips/advice would be appreciated.
Thanks everyone!

Somebody that doesn’t take the time to clean something before trying to sell tells me to just walk away. That’s just me.

That’s basically half price off a new one.
The grill works well.
You might lift up the grates to look at the fire box to make sure it looks good.

I’d offer $200 or walk.

Hard pass from me. I’m generally a minimum 75% discount kind of guy on something like this because if it doesn’t work, it’s useless and worthless. A fix could be $100 or more, which just gets you closer to new retail. $150 is the most I would pay and I’d have to REALLY want it.

150-175. Pellet grills have moving components and electronics made as cheaply as possible that fail relatively often. 350 is to much risk for a used pellet pooper.

I agree with most. Everything on this grill can pretty much be replaced for less than $100 except the controller which is $400. Unless you get this grill for $200 or less, I’d pass.
Edit: looks like you can get one for $175, but I’d still ask if they’d take $200-250.

I just got a used ironwood 885 for $500 that was newer and in better shape than this one (it wasn’t clean either but works great), if you want to use that as a reference.
