Weber Searwood 600 Porcelain Coated Steel Pellet Grill - 1500120

This is my first pellet grill. I decided to go with Weber because of past experience with their great customer service. This grill doesn't disappoint. It heats up fast and maintains temp very well. I've done multiple cooks in the past month of I've had it, they all turned out great. The only gripe I have is that it tends to dry out meat a little. I would suggest using a water pan when cooking to keep the moisture up. I am confused as to why Weber has all these great accessories (water tray) on their site but none of them are available. I have used this as a smoker and cranked up the heat to sear a tri-tip, which worked great. Definitely invest in the rotisserie for some great chicken. With the searing capability and extra accessories you can convert this into multiple grills. Build quality is solid and I look forward to using this grill for a while.

The Searwood does not maintain temperature set. It has error E18 multiple times during long smokes. Temperature dropped as much as 60 degrees without lid being opened. I disassembled the motor and auger by Webers request and there were no clogs or debris issues. This did not resolve the issue. Their customer support is 5 stars. They were very informative and respectful. In the end they said that those temperature fluctuations was within their parameters as long as it didn't drop 100 degrees.

I've had pellet grills for quite a few years now (you know, the one that begins with a "T") but have never been totally satisfied with them. Not enough smoke flavor, dealing with a drip trays that warp after a few uses, covers that rip after a couple of years, not enough heat to sear properly, less than ideal smoke rings and flavor were all issues that caused me to look elsewhere. After a lot of research, I settled on the Weber Searwood 600. To say I'm pleased is an understatement! All of the things that caused me to look elsewhere have been resolved with the Searwood and then some. The amount of ash the grill generates is much smaller. It's easier to clean. The accessories like the rotisserie are game changers. I get the grill marks and sear that I only dreamed about. Smoke rings are perfect as is the smoke flavor. Gone are the days of wandering temperatures as the Searwood controller is steady as a rock. Needless to say, I am very happy with this purchase.

I owned the Weber Smokefire for 3 years and had many a good cook. I wanted something easier to clean, with a rotisserie. I also like the fact that the upper rack sits further back and makes it easier to flip items on the lower rack.

It has met every expectation I had for it. Great smoker even better barbecue. Easy to use

The grill works well as both a pellet smoker and a grill. I was looking a have both a grill and a smoker and glad I got this. Only issue I had was the wheel axle was not in the box. Weber got me one in about 1 week.

So far, I have only cooked Barbecue Chicken, Jerked Chicken and rotisserie Peruvian Chicken. All were awesome.

Grill was fairly easy to assemble. Startup is easy. App control is easy. Pellet jams are infrequent and appear to clear themselves before grill temp dips more than 10 degrees. The smoke flavor is good. Cleanup is pretty easy as well. No complaints. I'm very happy with purchase. Much easier to control the grill than when I was smoking on the kettle.

You can always count on Weber to provide the best products, this grill has put my burgers, steaks, fish to the next level of deliciousness.

I've owned several pellets grills over the years and this one is definitely my favorite so far. Great build quality and makes great food. Manual mode is a nice addition as well.
