Weber Searwood XL 600 Pellet Grill w/ Cover, Front Table & Rotisserie

Enjoying the smoker / grill. First pellet smoker and this thing is awesome. Smoke for hours or sear in minutes. So easy to use and food is cooked to perfection.

Unfortunately the grill stopped working after the second use. Once the temperature was set the Searwood would start for a moment but then turn off and the screen would go blank then return to the initial mode. Using the chat feature, it was suggested that the jumper cable to the module was loose. There was no explanation or direction as to how to find the jumper cable connection. When calling for technical support the tech was not able to identify the problem and seems to suggest the problem was the grill was not shut down properly and warned not to touch a hot grill. It is certainly frustrating the grill won't work, it was great for the first use where a chicken was cooked using the rotisserie. Hopefully there will be a solution to the problem but haven't heard back from support as of yet.

Smoke is excellent and the Weber app to manage the grill is very intuitive / user friendly. Can't give the grill 5 stars because despite its wheels it is essentially immovable. The bottom shelf gets in the way when trying to over the grill. This is especially a problem when you attach the side table as I did. There is no way to lift the grill without serious pain to the hands and then your legs are hitting the bottom shelf. But the cooking is great!

Love it versatileness how it can handle just about anything you throw at it

I read a lot of good things about the Searwood and was excited to give it a try. I can definitely say that it lived up to expectations. Smoking is a breeze and using the grill to sear was easy as well. I would recommend purchasing the Weber Crafted kit for a better normal grilling experience.

I am a former owner of a Daniel Boone GMG. I was never impressed with its smoking (or lack of). Its build quality was a disappointment as well and it started rusting within two months of buying it (less than three years ago). GMG customer support (if you could call it that) was non existent when I tried to get help when it's rust issues became must worse (always stored inside and never in the rain). Anyway… I called BBQGuys and they were more than willing to help out. I told them the issues and they were great in recommending this Weber. It's porcelain enameled so should be better with being rust resistant. It was easy to assemble (recommended two people but I did it easily by myself). It is an impressive smoker. I did a couple burgers on it after burning it in and they were incredible. The difference just on these (between this and the GMG) was incredible. Followed up with a few slow cooked 10oz filets and they were amazing as well. It gets to higher temps quickly. Manual mode is a great feature as is the smoke boost (though, even without the smoke boost this thing really kicks out the smoke). It's a quality built product and exactly what you'd expect from Weber. Haven't tried a brisket yet but that will be next. Ive only used it 4 times so far but I have been impressed.

Works great. Love how the Weber Connect application works with the grill. Why I chose this grill is because unlike a Traeger Grill you can actually sear a steak with the Weber Starwood XL . It also surprisingly gets up its temperature up even though it's a pellet grill. I love this grill. I highly recommend it

I have been a weber customer for over 40 years. All the prior grills that I had were charcoal. When I would want to smoke meat, I would use a landman big box wet pan propane smoker. I had that for over 12 years. When I decided to upgrade due to my charcoal grill, and my smoker, having lived a full life. I looked into pellet grilling. The first unit I had was a complete debacle. Poor design, poor results. Luckily I was with a company that took care of their customers. They tried to work through the issues with me and the unit I had to no avail.. They then sent me the upgraded new model version. Now I am a happy griller with a unit that does everything that he claims to do. Whether I'm doing low and slow or searing meat at 600° it does everything I commanded to do. If you're looking at pellet grilling, that will take care of searing steaks to low and slow Boston butt and briskets. This is the ticket! I highly recommend the Searwood from Weber.

After waiting 2 weeks for shipping, the barrel showed up cracked. Waited another week and a half for the follow up delivery. Haven't even gotten the replacement part and they are asking me to give them a review.
