Weber comes out with a new pellet grill.
It's high time you take a pellet grill plunge.Is it only me, or does the picture of the SearFire look like a much smaller barrel shape? Looking at Greg Ross-MN's great looking EX4, there looks to be much more head-room for the 2 shelves in the EX4. For things like cooking a turkey whole, headroom is at a premium.
I have a hard time comparing as I don't have a SmokeFire, but I do have a Genesis E335 Gas Grill that I smoke on as best I can.
Sure but I assume they will continue to have parts on hand for some time.SmokeFire is definitely fading away when present stock is exhausted. In fact, there will be a whole field if new grills appearing; I can't remember when Weber had so much coming out in one season--new Summits, Genesis, Mercury (griddles), Searwood. Plus new griddle accessories beginning to trickle out and a new Q and compact Traveler.
Oh yes. That’s the standard for Weber.Sure but I assume they will continue to have parts on hand for some time.
Not necessarily. They left me in the lurch with my Summit while it was under warranty. So don't bet your last $$$ they will support your grill throughout the warranty period. I learned the hard wayOh yes. That’s the standard for Weber.
Plan to do that. Have very limited room. Like the gas convenience so was thinking of a Camp Chef Apex. They are out of stock with no hints of a new model. Looked at Smokefire, liked what I saw, but Apex looked better. Re-looking at Weber and new searfire. We will see what spring brings.It's high time you take a pellet grill plunge.
KZL Fabrication, LLCTell me about that bottom shelf.
Oh yeah? I have the exact opposite experience. They replaced a number of things that were out of warranty like the gas assist on my Summit Charcoal.Not necessarily.

Wasn't they "refused" the warranty, they said they could not supply the warranty parts because they did not make or stock them any more even though they KNEW they had products out there like mine who's owners were told the parts were covered under warranty. Their remedy? They sent me a coupon for 25% off a new Genesis or Summit ONLY good if I ordered through their web site link in the email. Which linked to a page with the grills I could order but the prices were MORE than the difference of the coupon HIGHER. IOW, if I ordered say a new Genesis 4 burner grill (as close as a product would be to my Summit 450), I would have paid 25% MORE than if I just went to a store and bought one and brought it home (even with the coupon).Oh yeah? I have the exact opposite experience. They replaced a number of things that were out of warranty like the gas assist on my Summit Charcoal.
Mercury griddles? Tell me more…SmokeFire is definitely fading away when present stock is exhausted.

Good eyes on the cutout! Now, will that be available in our Region, lol?Check out too what appears to be cutouts on the lid for a rotisserie option. The pricing sure shows it will likely displace the SmokeFire as well.
