Rated 7.2/10 on its documented specs. Made for set-it-and-check-your-phone smoking.
The Traeger Westwood next to the two pellet grills rated closest to it.
Fed by an 18 lb hopper. Listings usually count the upper rack too, so measure your biggest cook against the main grate.
The sweet spot for most backyards: a weeknight dinner for four, or a Saturday brisket with room for a few sausages next to it.
Check the pit and the meat from the couch, and on most apps nudge the temperature too. Gold on a 12-hour brisket that starts at 5 a.m.
Enough pellets for a long afternoon cook. For an all-nighter, keep the bag close.
The big change is the leash: with the WiFi app you start the brisket at dawn, go back to bed and check the pit from your phone.
A family of four, with room for guests on Saturday. 653 sq in fits ribs and a tray of wings at the same time, without being so big that a Tuesday dinner looks lost on it.
The 18 lb hopper is fine for an afternoon cook; keep a bag close for all-nighters.
These points come from the seller's own listing, so read them as the brand's claims.
Assembly day. Plan an hour or two with a second pair of hands. Most manuals ask for a first burn-in before the first cook.
Its spot. Level ground, a few feet from the wall and anything that can melt, an outlet in reach. A cover keeps the pellets and the controller dry between cooks.

Feeding more people? The Pit Boss Navigator 6-Series Vertical lists 2,224 sq in of cooking space (9.2/10).
Steak night matters more than brisket? The Pit Boss 500 FB2 adds a direct-flame sear (7.9/10).
Need one for the campsite? The Traeger Ranger is built to travel (9.3/10).
Our favourite thing about the Traeger Westwood is 653 sq in of cooking space, closely followed by WiFi control from your phone. No buyer reviews yet, so the Traeger Westwood has to win you over on paper. The catch with this Traeger pellet grill: no stated temperature range, while most models here give one. We'd pick the Traeger if you cook for the family most weeks and for friends now and then; otherwise, put it next to the Pit Boss 1600 Navigator first.
Before you order the Traeger Westwood and wait for the delivery truck, check the temperature range: the listing gives no range, so ask the seller how low and how hot it goes.
653 sq in is stated, often the main grate and the upper rack added together. Measure your biggest cook (two briskets? six racks of ribs?) and lay it out in our grate area planner.
It plugs into a regular outdoor outlet for the igniter, the fan and the auger. A grounded outlet close by beats a long extension cord.
The hopper holds 18 lb. How long that lasts depends on the temperature and the weather, so keep a bag next to the grill for long low-and-slow cooks.
Plan to vacuum the ash out of the fire pot every few cooks, and keep the grease tray clean: that is where most flare-ups start.
How the Traeger Westwood stacks up against the closest alternative, the Pit Boss 1600 Navigator.
| Criterion | Traeger Westwood | Pit Boss 1600 Navigator |
|---|---|---|
| Our rating | 7.2/10 | 7.2/10 |
| Cooking area | 653 sq in | 1,593 sq in |
| Hopper | 18 lb | 30 lb |
| Temperature range | Not stated | 180–500°F |

Both score 7.2/10. The Pit Boss 1600 Navigator adds more cooking space (1,593 sq in) and a bigger hopper (30 lb).
We rate it 7.2/10 (good). The rating comes from its documented listing alone, as no customer-review record is captured yet.
Its listing states 653 sq in of cooking space, WiFi control from your phone, an 18 lb hopper and 6-in-1 cooking. Those are the seller's figures; how it holds temperature in your own wind and weather can't be read from a listing.
How much you really cook: 653 sq in is stated, often the main grate and the upper rack added together. Measure your biggest cook (two briskets? six racks of ribs?) and lay it out in our grate area planner. Power at the spot: it plugs into a regular outdoor outlet for the igniter, the fan and the auger. A grounded outlet close by beats a long extension cord. Pellets and long cooks: the hopper holds 18 lb. How long that lasts depends on the temperature and the weather, so keep a bag next to the grill for long low-and-slow cooks. Cleaning: plan to vacuum the ash out of the fire pot every few cooks, and keep the grease tray clean: that is where most flare-ups start.
