Good points

Good Points

  • Very good cooking performance result.
  • Very easy rolling, large lockable 4 castors can roll in independent directions, may need more guidance (like shopping trolleys) for the aimed direction.
  • Cooking plates are divided into three and are OK to clean in a domestic sink.
  • Thermometer in hood is accurate.
Bad points

Bad Points

  • Only OK for ease of use.
  • Smoke is directed into your face.
  • Hood is fairly heavy.
  • Side burner control is positioned between the 2 right side controls and can be confusing.
  • Restricted viewing of controls, need to bend over to view.
  • Some stainless steel on exterior requires extra attention when cleaning.
  • Assembly instructions may not be self explanatory.
  • Fairly basic instructions.
  • Gas bottle can be hung from hook on side of BBQ, considerable effort required to lift.
  • Hood and side tables can become dangerously hot.
