Got one at the autumn NEC show. Not tried it yet.

I've got one

Only used it once for a test pack of burgers, as I only got it recently.

Awesome piece of kit IMHO, I spent a lot of time looking for a decent portable charcoal BBQ.

The snuff out bag is way cool

Still waiting for a review before I commit to buying one but they do look like a great piece of kit.

Am interested to see what you both think when you have used a couple of times.

at www.mode.co.uk   50.00 incl postage  had to order one

a friend of ours had one last summer and we used it constantly, it was great and held its heat for ages. once we had cooked we folded it up and used it as a heater in an awning it was brill. would thoroughly recommend them especially with their size too

I bought one of ebay last year but am still to use it. As everyone states looks a good bit of kit. 3 on ebay at the moment two with postage are over £50 but one has just over a day to go and is £21 plus £10 postage at the moment

Received mine today (ebay £40)
Put it together in 5 mins
Had it lit with a few bits of kindling in 2 mins
was cooking pork chops on it 20 minutes later (could have been sooner but they reccomend 1st use leave it to burn off for longer)
It is the easiest thing to light I have ever seen and did its job perfectly
I cannot imagine anyone who goes camping not wanting one of these
Oh and Deb says its very cute !

Used mine this weekend, Top kit is the verdict from me!

Lit using a screwed up piece of paper and was cooking inside 10 minutes. When finished I folded it up and let it burn hot which burned the grease off and all the charcoal was powder in the bottom tray in 20 minutes, then placed it in the pouch.

Also a deceptively big cooking area!

Did you pack it away lit when you finished cooking or did you let it go out or perhaps you are still cooking on it!? I just wondered how easy it is to pack away. I have manged to show great restraint till now regarding the purchase of one but I am quickly weakening. I really want this and/or a Yakatori table bbq but common sense (and wallet) keeps telling me to stick with the cheapy bbq from Wilkinsons - damn that common sense

Used it once so far. Works very well, but if you use it on grass the heat kills it. Now looking for a siutable stand/table etc. Easy to light, fair sized grills etc.
