i cant ancwer yet but i can say if he spent £130 on the a safari model he was done, as most of them are about the £70 mark, the carri chef deluxe is going for £109 from tesco.
it sounds like you have the hp one with the cartridge type gas, alot of people have moaned about the plates not getting hot enough.

we have previously had 2 cadacs and tried a cobb but it wasnt our cup of tea,far to many parts etc for our needs not to say they are not good just more then we needed, anyway have just ordered a cadac safari low pressure model and cant wait i think like everything it comes down to personal preference i like the cadac as heat is instant and up to cooking temp in mins and cool in mins to wash up, where the cobb with a cobb stone burns for 3 hours far to long for me the wife and daughter and its a pain to wash up

Ya cant beat a Cadac IMHO. I really dont see how people cant get on with them? they are brilliant. If it's windy, put a flipping wind break up. Simples.

Hi Yamster.
Sorry to disagree but the Cobb will NOT scorch the grass !! You can even pick it up whilst cooking and i have even used mine, sat on the dining room table !!

We've had a cobb for about 3 years and used it about 3 times - it's rubbish!!
We're contemplating buying a portable BBQ for our motorhome and won't be buying a cadac either, too many bad reviews of late. They sound a bit over rated IMO.
OP - you could have got the safari chef for just over £50.00 online with Tesco, send the other one back!

another hear hear! from me too.
I love my cadac it's a safari chef used with a 907 cylinder, never had any problems with it blowing out, or food sticking to non stick surfaces, uneven heat or anything else. I use it camping, picnics home BBQ-ing. Paid £49 for it including P&P brand new.
Others, however, want and choose different things. Vive la différence!
