Summit Kamado E6

The Summit Kamado E6 is Weber's standard-ignition ceramic-style kamado grill with a 24 inch, 452 sq in cooking area on a stand.

$1,399Approx. MSRP

Good kamado-style performance for someone willing to double-check the base is stable and level, but be aware the caster/base design has caused real tip-over complaints.

Pros

  • Excellent temperature control and versatility once assembled correctly
  • Steel build avoids the ceramic-cracking risk of traditional kamados
  • Generally well reviewed by owners overall (4.7/5 average)
  • Ceramic holds heat and moisture — grill, smoke or bake

Watch-outs

  • Base/caster stability is a real, documented weak point
  • Warranty support for base issues has been inconsistent
  • Limited third-party accessory ecosystem
  • Charcoal means a learning curve vs push-button gas

Known niggles

  • Caster/wheel base has a known design flaw, and Weber has denied some warranty claims after about 3 years
  • At least one reported case of the grill tipping over backward due to base stability issues
  • Some units shipped with an incorrect bracket, causing base assembly problems
  • Cosmetic QC issues like misaligned logos reported
