Intermittent and flaky
Decided to give the Gravity Series a go after weighing it up for a while. Made up with the build quality of the BBQ. Shame I can’t say the same about the app. For the cost of these BBQs and a key selling point being able to remotely control your BBQ via the app, this part is extremely poor. To the point it has soured my overall experience and I’m extremely disappointed. I’ve had a new control unit and I can’t even connect it to the app. I seen someone reference it works 15-20% of the time, I’d say this is somewhat accurate. When it does work, it’s excellent. But I know it’s only a matter of time before it goes out of sync or won’t connect. I know the issues are not with my WiFi as all other devices have no issues and apps that are both 2.4GHz and 5GHz have no issues…just this one. On this experience alone I’d say to avoid buying a Masterbuilt BBQ - which is a huge shame given how good they are. If you’re buying one for the app feature…don’t bother. And if anyone from Masterbuilt is reading…get this reliability sorted!! It is letting down your product massively!
