During the height of the pandemic fueled grill buying hysteria, Weber bought indoor smart oven company June. Even prior to the acquisition, Weber collaborated with June to develop the tech behind their Weber Connect platform and the SmokeFire pellet grill. Times have changed since then, and it would appear that June smart ovens are no longer on the menu.
Weber has gone through a transformation since they acquired June for $142.2 million in January of 2021. They’ve had an overhaul of their leadership, they took on high-priced debt, and ultimately went back private.
