I had really good luck with Turkey's in them, just keep an eye on the water pan or the heat can get away from you.
The one in post 9 is the one I have now, and I really like it. Not the best, but good enough.

I was reading today that the offset smokers are not the best to use because the smoke tends to rise, no transfer horizontally. The reason expensive horizontal smokers work better is because of reverse flow. And others say the temp difference between the different sides of the box are much too great for even cooking.
Don't know how much any of that makes sense but a few articles I have read have made those comments.
