I like the sound of the SG version - saw one in the flesh yesterday and looked really good. All I could find was this (hopefully I've posted correctly).
400 ST review
Love the legs on the 600 but not sure the price difference is worth it (although could get rid of my cooking table) but there's also the cost of the regulator and gas to think of (we'd probably have to get the 904 bottle). The Vario has really come down in price now but the grill doesn't seem that good.

Probably a bit late for the OP but wanted to add my thoughts, which to be honest are not very positive. Yes the boil time is awesome and wind has no effect on it but and its a big but, the build quality is, to be frank garbage. We have only used ours for a 3 day stint so far and at present it now has one broken leg, the catch is broken as is the handle. It would seem that all the plastic components have been used are far too flimsy and brittle. I am just waiting to hear back from Yeomans where I bought mine from how they are going to deal with at its clearly not fit for purpose.

iv got one of these - not impressed by the lack of a low heat setting!
when im heatin up baked beans even on the lowest setting, the beans are boiling away furiously and i need to turn the gas off - this was same on my older camping gaz double burner / grill cooker - why isnt the low setting lower?
