At first when it worked it was awesome. Everything I could ever want in a grill. My husband loved every meal prepared with this grill. But thenfter about 8 to 10 months it would go straight to Manual mode and would not let me select a program. I unplugged the unit and started over and over again trying to program the grill. Each time as soon as I pressed the POWER BUTTON it went STRAIGHT to MANUAL. I'm so DISAPPOINTED.
