Yeah I spend too much on the fire smoke to afford a smokefire, lol. Not a dick at all, I think a couple people here have them, and will chime in soon enough.

Here's a thread from back in February discussing some of early problems with the Smoke Fire.

@pbe gummi bear can probably give you some more current insight.

Unfortunately this grill is a disaster and I would not recommend anyone purchase this thing until weber sorts out the issues. The auger design and shutdown procedure cause it the pellets to jam, the pellets do not slide down the hopper unless you add in the “ramp” which reduces your pellet capacity by 2lbs, the app does not offer full promised functionality, the drip path is too shallow and doesn’t collect grease well, has trouble reaching temperatures above 400F, and on and on.
