We have only used the grill one time so far and the food was excellent. The one problem we had was we were cooking at 170 degree setting and the grill would not go to 170 and ran between 180 and 205. It was a little windy where it was sitting so we moved it out of the wind with little change but it was a hot and humid day and the instructions said that would effect the temps. Hope the next attempt will be better in line with temperature setting.
