Firsts off I am a huge fan of Weber products, now for the bad. I bought this at the end of the grilling season last fall. The first time I tried to use it, I installed all the components and batteries, and it would not turn on. Had to cook without it. waited 4 days for a response from customer service before exchanging for another unit (exchanged before I was contacted).
Second time it worked perfect, was very happy with the results.
3rd time trying to use was early spring, turned it on, connected to my phone and all is good. I hooked up a temperature and it was reading 244 degrees before the grill was lit. Hooked in a different probe, and it worked fine. This could be an even more expensive device if you have to buy a new probe every time you want to use it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Connects to iPhone but doesn't want to connect to my pixel 3xl. I am forced to beg kids to use their phone every time I need to BBQ. PLEASE FIX YOUR BLUETOOTH CONNECTIVITY, ITS NOT MOST CHALLENGING TECH ISSUE.

I used my i grill 3 proves for the first time the other day and my stalls came out great but the color coating, red/yellow caught on fire from a flair up. Is this normal? Did I use them wrong? Can I still use them?
I would recommend this to a friend!

A good thermometer that fits great on the Genesis II. It works well with my iOS app and allowed me grill the perfect ribeye steaks.
One thing that could have been better understood is the sensitivity of the probes, which appear to be more fragile that I anticipated. On my first grill with this product, one of the probes was under direct exposure to flame for a minute which not only caused the colored band to completely melt away but also permanently damaged the probe’s sensing capabilities and rendered it useless.
So especially when using on a gas grill make sure that exposure to flame is minimized for the probes.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've used this sensor twice and both times the meat has been cooked to perfection...I wish I would have bought this accessory immediately upon receiving the grill as a present!
It works. A rich neighbor has one. He has everything. You can get wireless thermometers for $20. But to have that all important degree reading show up in your smart phone, you have to pay $100.
Disappointed fuel sensor not working. I like the probes but am concerned about longevity due to sensor not responding.
