It's a lot of money to spend on a grill that doesn't perform out of the box. I'm really thinking about camp chef or a different company. I also asked PB about the upgrade on the controller so we have more options for setting instead of the 50 degree increments, they said it not getting an update anytime soon. The 1600 controller I would say it's more like the 1150 controller from what I have seen. I know with my old smoker would have be able to make it to 500 no issues. The first night I cooked on it I could not get it to go over 300 to cook pancakes on the griddle. I had it set to 250 and the main grill was not getting above 210 (190-208) it was 40 outside with a lite wind. I have noticed that there is big temp different on the main grill near the firepot vs the system temp probe. Seeing as there are no listening modes and. I like the space the wifi and bluetooth and the features is nice but the app stills seems slow and glitchey. This is basically AirPods -level battery life and a lot shorter than category leaders like the Elite Active 75t (7.5 hours) and Powerbeats Pro (9 hours). I'm not sure if I want to keep it for almost $1000.

Hey everyone I pick up my PB1600 last weekend and have cooked on it a few times.
