Purchased this smoker 2 months ago and worked very well. I did use an aluminum tray under the grates to collect grease and have had no problems with fires or clean up.
i own a bbq business and have been cooking over 30 years and this is by far the best home grill i have ever owned
I would recommend this to a friend!

EX6 gen 1

I’ve had this grill since it was first released, my EX6 is OUTSTANDING! Although Weber sent me EVERYTHING that was known to be problematic, e.g. hopper slide, glow plug, auger motor etc. I am still on all original equipment from the motor to the glow plug. I’ve literally had no problems with this grill. In fact, four years later I’m so happy and I feel that if it were to stop working at this point I’ve definitely gotten my money’s worth out of it. I love this grill, it looks like the only updates this grill has seen is a light inside the smoker and an included sear grate. I have purchased the front folding shelf and a cover. My previous pellet grill rhymed with prayger so I’m familiar with the usual snafu’s that come up i.e. flameouts, pellets not sliding freely inside the hopper and that has helped in my expectations of any pellet grill. I also own a BGE XL a mini BGE a Weber Performer, a 22” premium kettle, a Weber Big Joe, a Smokie Joe, a Weber Q300 (for when charcoal grills aren’t allowed i.e. tailgates) and a 10’ Santa Maria bbq trailer. I am definitely at the level of grill master and I get down with each and every grill I own
So far so good, after making pulled pork, beef plate ribs, baby back, spare ribs, prime rib roast still determining best rack placement for meat and water trays. Hoods a little lose now but the rest of the grill is in great shape and working really well.

Everytime I use this it shuts down. I wish I could rely on this because I like the concept. I use Weber Brand pellets and keep it clean but it doesn't help. Disappointed in the Weber Brand
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

They are already on their 3rd g generation of pellet grills. That should tell you something. I fell for Gen 2, and I am telling you to avoid the mistake I made. Even when you keep it clean, replace all the parts they tell you to replace, it is a headache. Steer clear and Weber, stay in your lane. Stick to gas and charcoal.
