Folks love their Green Eggs, and I cannot say anything bad about them. However, as an owner of a Camp Chef Woodwind pellet grill, I will give you my opinion, since you asked.
The Green Eggs are great, but you do need to keep an eye on them. This is what I love about my Camp Chef Woodwind;
1) It is totally set it and forget it. They now have a Wifi controller that constantly monitors the temperature AND the smoke level. When you cook a big brisket or a Boston Butt for pulled pork, you may be cooking for like 18 hours. With the built in high and low temperature alarms, you can sleep soundly. My iphone tells me if I need to do anything.
2) You can use different pellets. Apple, Cherry, Oak, Mesquite, Pecan, etc., etc. I buy a 20 lb bag at Rural king for $8.99, or $4.99 on sale. Lumberjack pellets are the best.
3) Easy to clean.
4) With the Searbox or the Sidekick (sidekick is better), you can reverse sear steaks, cook eggs, onions and peppers, pancakes, etc. The pizza oven accessory is amazing. It also then allows you to cook anything, like a quick hot dog or hamburger while you are in the middle of a 18 hour cook.
5) With the different temperature settings you can smoke cheese, cook Salmon, bake a cake or a pie, even make smoked chex mix. Do beef jerky, cook a great pizza, etc. EASY. NO BABY SITTING. If you're lookin you're not cookin. Basically set it and forget it.
I extensively research everything I do pretty much. I think the Camp Chef WIFI PID Woodwind with the Sidekick is the best choice by far. You can do WAY much more with it, and it is WAY easier. Camp Chef customer service is amazing. The Camp Chef Smokers Facebook group is huge and very helpful. go to

I cook all of our turkeys in it, brisket, steaks, salmon, pulled pork, amazing chicken wings, ribs, tri-tips, meat loaf (great), etc., etc. I used to be a weber grill, burn everything guy. Then I learned that you cook by internal temperature. Life changing. I gave away my weber. Now I am a GrillGod. Love my Camp Chef Woodwind!
Hope this helps...if you have any questions feel free to PM me or call or email.
