Eh. I'm not in agreement with that. I know it's 2020 in America, but we still have to use our brains and take some personal responsibility for simple physics. If Porsche puts out a claim that the new 911 is a top performing car that is also comfortable, then I know it's just marketing fluff. It can't be both. It doesn't mean I then get angry and wage an internet war on Porsche. I either buy one for what it is, or I don't. If you buy a 911 because you think it's going to be a comfortable ride, then that's on you. Sorry. If this SmokeFire didn't do what a pellet grill was supposed to do, then I'd agree that Weber really screwed the pooch. Based on what I'm seeing, it just doesn't accomplish the few claims that are above what other pellet grills can accomplish. Are they guilty of embellishing for marketing purposes? Yes. Does it mean the entire company is going under and they should redesign the entire platform because Mr. Angry can't sear a steak on it? That's ridiculous.
But, like I said earlier, that is just my opinion and it's worth the bandwidth used to post this thread, or less.
