The bbq is great and big. It also produces very tasty bbq, best I have made. Not too smokey and keeps temps stable whenow and slow (under 300). However It struggles in the semi cold (40 degrees) to keep temp and eats pellets quickly. Also had a grease fire already which hurt the enamel of the grill because the hot pellets are thrown all over the bottom.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My Weber EX6 was delivered 3 weeks ago. Packaging was great and assembly smooth (45 minutes). I have smoked 4 slabs of baby back ribs, 3 brisket points, 4 pounds of sausage, a pork tip and even a salmon filet. It all was absolutely FABOU!!! This grill has performed great in every aspect and a lot of fun!!!

I smoked a 12 pound bone in rib roast on my SmokeFire on Christmas day in Chicago and it was delicious. Very easy to use and the food tastes great.

I have used it about 8-10 times so far. Only issue was on a very cold (10 degree) morning where I hadn't cleaned it out. It does low and slow wonderfully. The high heat function is great too. We have done both reverse sear as well as high heat steaks. All the food has been fantastic. The app is great.

It still needs improvement, they call it 2nd generation, but it’s not its more like 1.5 ... the pellet hoper has a piece metal screwed on the the original... rather then improving the hoper they just modified the original.. which is a let down now the hoper box is even smaller and doesn’t even hold 20 lbs... the ash tray has a gap between the top of the tray which allows sparks to fly out... which makes me worried because my pellet smoker sits on a wooden deck... the software seems ok ... I haven’t had any issues with it other than not being able to set the temperature from the phone on the initial start up ... when it’s cold out side I wish I could start it up from inside the house.... rather than having to mess with the dial...
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

As an owner of several grills and smokers, I consider the Weber Smokefire EX6 to be a great smoker and grill. It's a beautiful grill, shiny black with tasteful additions of polished stainless steel. In fact, I haven't fired up any of my other cookers since receiving the Weber 3 weeks ago. We usually grill/smoke our dinner around 3 times a week and the EX6 has performed to expectations and then some. I've done 3 briskets to perfection, steaks grilled with perfect grill marks and taste, a ham, chicken wings, several vegetable dishes and 2 turkeys. It seems the only thing we haven't done on the Smokefire is grill a hamburger.
The ease of lighting the grill, setting temps, and use of Smokeboost makes it easy to turn out great food, and the wi-fi feature enabled me to monitor and then turn off the grill when the food was done while I was 40 some odd miles away was great.
While others are reporting some problems with their grills, I have not had any problems whatsoever. The add-on shelves, on the other hand are flimsy and are hard to put in place, and when collapsing them, almost come off in your hand from their mountings
I religiously clean the grill at least every other cook, if not every cook, depending on the type of food I've cooked. I do vacuum out the ash including the residue in the burn pot after every cook.
All in all a great purchase.
