Product Description
Picture the scene. It's the height of summer, or what passes for summer. You're off to the park with your chums. You've just had a big night out and you've got the serious 'munchies', as we believe it's called. You now have a choice. Run off down to the Co-op for a few tubes of Pringles... or run off down to the Co-op for a few chicken drumsticks, sausages, veggie skewers and massive fat burgers. At Gadgetshop HQ, we know which sounds infinitely more appealing, which is why we searched high and low for this intriguing little contraption. It's a compact, folding barbecue that's designed to be taken anywhere. Here's how it works: 1. Fold it out. 2. Fill it up. 3. Light it up. And that's it. No complex gas bottles, no heavy lifting and no rummaging around B&Q for those 'instant' types that you can use once and once only. Now the spirit of summer can join you wherever you are, or even sit permanently in the boot of your car, ready for action whenever the mood takes you. Fully collapsing to just a few inches thick, it's ultra-light and ultra-portable yet robust and sturdy wherever you choose to put it. Just plonk it down, light it up and you're a twisted firestarter, as my nephew likes to put it.

 Simple, sleek, efficient October 10, 2008

I took one of these camping last June. It folded up so thin it could lie on the floor of the car boot taking up practically zero space. On site it was up in about twenty seconds, fill it up with quicklighting charcoal, drop a match in, sit back and open a beer. In 5 mins I was cooking pasta in a big pan and in 20 I was grilling steak. It was brilliant and simple and ideal for a no-fires camping ground as it kept the heat off the grass. I have to admit I broke one bar of the grill by poking it too hard when it was hot and brittle. Also after a week of using the unit as a bbq at the start of the evening and bonfire the rest of the night it was looking a bit grey and warped. But I was delighted I'd brought it and was sorry when I had to leave it behind (my mate lumbered me with his son's suitcase! Tchoh!)
 Be very wary of using this BBQ! May 13, 2008

I purchased this BBq for a number of reasons. I wanted it mainly for doing family Bbq's at home but, I liked the fact that I could use it for picnics/holidays and also thought it'd be really easy to store! First impressions were mixed. It was easy enough to assemble BUT the metal side 'flaps' kept swinging inwards so you HAD to put the grill bit in place to keep the Bbq open. I quickly realised that this would make lighting it a bit tricky. Other than that was impressed with the overall size & was eager to try it out. It certainly was fiddly to get it started and was starting to bug me as one of the side bits kept swinging in as I was putting the coals in & trying to light it. Once lit, all seemed to be going well & after a while I started loading the food on. HOWEVER, at this point I realised flames were coming out of one of the cooking SIDES of the Bbq!! I was using the Bbq on a table and had I been stood round the other side I could easily have been set alight! I abandoned everything & put it all out (much to the disappointment of my family who were now geared up for it) & took it back the next day. Am unsure whether the particular one I had was faulty ot whether there is a serious design flaw. Would be interested to see how other people get on with theirs but if you have purchased one recently please be careful. On a plus side it folded away really easy for me to return it!!
