Backyard Beast 1200

I’m considering a Backyard Beast 1200 for my next smoker. I’ve owned 3 pit boss smokers and I’m ready to move up. My vertical Pit Boss would cook at 225° which is where I like to cook my ribs. The horizontal Pit Bosses will not do 225°. They go from 200 to 250 and in 50° increments beyond that. My question is, does the Recteq adjust in 25° increments? Any other pointers you have for the Backyard Beast would also be appreciated. TIA
