I have an offset for smoking these days but have used a weber for many years. Still do for quick stuff. I have a Slow N Sear for it so I can separate the charcoal to one side. I can smoke with that as well using the water pan that comes with it and the snake method with wood chunks. It does a great job of reverse sear method for steaks and chops.
I have another gizmo called a TipTopTemp that sits on the top vent on the lid. Has a spring operated damper you can adjust and it'll regulate the temperature really well. I like it---no moving parts. Slow N Sear + TipTopTemp + snake method is just about as set it and forget it as a pellet grill is.
Don't have a pellet grill as these two get me what I need. I'm a whacko that likes to play with the fire so I love using the offset. Just pressing the button would kill all my fun! I should be out there today. Perfect weather here. Dodgers have a double header.! Women have other plans for me. Dangit!
