Not sure if it is the same as the one we got but we found that it went out of shape after a couple of uses due to the heat. also found it really difficult to clean all the ashes out once it had cooled.

the cooking surface is rather small on our one

We only paid about 10 pounds for it so it may have been an inferior copy.

Bought one from John Lewis a couple of years ago, used it for about 10 days in France, it lost it's shape and would not go back in the box. Needless to say it did not make it back across the Channel.

Get one of these. They cost a bit more but they are very sturdy, well made and fantastic. Used ours all last summer.

I bought one of these last year as it looked like a good space saver. Didn't even last the whole holiday before I binned it.

Mmmmmmm, that Son of Hibachi looks interesting, but heavy. I wonder how difficult it would be to build/create your own portable bbq. We need one too.

I have one and havnt had any of the problems as mentioned above. I use some extra thick foil with holes punched in it on the lower grill under the charcol and it means its easier to keep clean and to then dispose of ash etc. We have used it loads. Only used it for 4 (very hungry) adults though so if you have a large family then it might not be for you... its excellent in terms of space...
