Weber Smokefire Series
Verified2 reviews
Good but not perfect – After saving up the $2999 over 12 months I was pretty excited to receive my Weber SF EX6. I have had it for 8 weeks now and have experienced the following; 1. It’s very easy to put together but due to its size is probably safer as a two person job. 2. Is a lot noisier than I thought it would be, due to the heavy duty fan unit used to fuel the fire with air. 3. Can reach a top temp of 315 Celsius in around 15 minutes, and 4. I was surprised at how quickly it burns through a 9kg bag of pellets. Roughly 8 hours cooking time at top temp.
The cooking results in my opinion are amazing and the smoke flavour takes most things to a next level. I have used it as low at 110 Celsius for low and slow pulled pork and as high as 315 Celsius to sear a steak.
Easy clean up with a great fat and ash tray.
I would highly recommend this BBQ to all comers and I think for the extra $500 the EX6 is worth getting over the EX4.
Purchased in at Burning Log for $2,999.

Same issues as GEN1 – Have the Gen2, grease still doesn't go into the drip pan on long cooks, had a grease fire, a few design issues with sharp edges under the bench , grill is solid built and when it works its good but to many issues to recommend this product.
