Convenient and effective portable BBQ
I have never seen anything quite like this little barbeque before. It works by burning a remarkably small amount of charcoal in a small metal basket in the centre of a stainless steel bowl. Air is pumped up into the basket from below, using a tiny battery powered fan. This makes the charcoal heat up very quickly indeed and the BBQ is ready for cooking in 5-10 mins. Then you can control the temperature on the cast iron cooking plate by adjusting the speed of the fan, using a rotary control. This works really well so, unlike many other barbeques, it is possible to cook food slowly on a gentle heat. Speeding the fan up raises the temperature in about 20-30 seconds. The design of the cooking plate stops meat juices dripping down into the basket, so there is hardly any smoke at all whilst cooking. Best of all, the outer (white) wall of the barbeque stays cool during cooking, significantly reducing the risk of burns. Cleaning up is easy - the stainless bowl just wipes and rinses clean. The cooking plate might need a soak to soften any food deposits, but it isn't non stick, so you can scrub with a wire brush if needs be, without causing any damage. Usually though, it too rinses off quite easily after just 10 mins under water. The whole unit comes with a neat carrying case, so it is very easy to take it with you on a picnic or to have a tasty barbie on the beach. Recommend.Read full review

Good but with some limitations
Pros: light and portable. Cooks well and for an hour or so whilst using very little charcoal
Cons: took 3 lots of lighter gel applications to get the charcoal fully lit and initially it would only catch on one side. It was a slightly windy day and nothing cooked until we brought it under cover, so avoid using in the wind. Really only usuable for 4 people maximumRead full review

Great bbq
What a great bit of kit. This was ready to cook on in just over 5 mins. Cool to touch so ideal on a table top or a picnic. Definitely would recommend.
Tip. Only use a very small amount of lighter gel otherwise it's difficult to get the charcoal lit.Read full review

Small with good performance
Does what it says on the box! Easy to light, quick to reach full heat. Smokeless when fully lighted but the lighter gel I purchased is very smoky.

Love this little bbq
Lights quickly, cooks well for 2, can be tricky to wash the large metal bowl, thought it would twist out, but no luck.

Brilliant invention
Quick & easy to use cooks very well it's easy to clean but you can not separate the outside from the drip tray which advertise that it can all go in the dishwasher but that's not too much of a problem.Read full review

Great in cooking awful in washing or cleaning
Great when you cook the food on it but after cooking, very very very difficult to clean after 3 times cleaning it, so many burned particles still stick in the pan and imposible to clean all of it.
