Love the grill. Only issue is the WiFi and the needing of 2.4 instead of the 5. But oh well, love my purchase and excited for the every 5 year incentive!!!
I recently received my grill and so far, I love it! Shipping was quick, assembly was easy and the grill seems to be of good quality. I have used cabinet smokers for years and they produce good food but they require a lot of babysitting. I love the set it and forget it nature of the pellet grill. I cooked two pork butts for Thanksgiving and the experience was great. I put them on before bed and woke up to delicious smoked pork. No babysitting required. I also love the ample space on this grill and the front shelf is very helpful. I look forward to using this for another 5 years and then getting another brand new grill! If I had one critique, it's that I can only set the temperature in increments of 25. I usually smoke at 240 but that's not possible with this grill. 250 is as close as it gets. It's not a huge deal but it would be nice if I could set it in increments of 5 or 10.
The grill works well, not so much the wifi app. One of the primary reasons I bought this model was for the convenience of monitoring the grill over WiFi using their app.
I'm not sure if it's the grill hardware that has issues or the app but sometimes I lose connection to the grill in the middle of using it and can't get it to function for the rest of the time I'm cooking. That's a big let down for me.
There were a ton of pieces to assemble, but it was not difficult for 1 person to do alone. Setup with the APP was easy. I immediately cooked my first brisket. It was a 14 lbs brisket, and they say 1 hour per pound. It was completely done, tender and juicy in only 9 hours. The quality was amazing. If you are thinking about doing it, do it.
I already wrote a long in depth review of my experience. But this morning an ad fell in my lab that clearly represents that this grill should be buy 1 get 10 free. The information is very misleading! Z grills is scamming people.
