Not a bad size for a couple of burgers or bangers,

some how,when I read the thread title I was expecting something like a 2 foot diameter dish! I was ready to be impressed

 

[petrochemicals]

actually, I looked at it a few times, its only 3 inch high and 5 inch wide at the top. The grate is 8 inch, but I for one an now less impressed. Quite small when you think of the taper on it.

Doesn't seem much for seventy quid.

Anyone paying £70 for that should, when reality dawns, retire to the study with a service revolver and do the gentlemanly thing.

I'm not sure that many Constabulary Firearms Depts would regard 'Buyer's Remorse' as 'good reason' to possess a revolver.

Eh?

"Grate size: 8 x 8 inches (205 x 205 mm)"

Where do you get 5 inches from?

the grates bigger than the stove ? And about 2/5 ths wider than higher. Its only like a honey stove without the expantion pack, but with narrowing sides

Me too, though I'm not sure I would find a big fire bowl more impressive in Titanium than anything else.

Looking at the shot of the stainless one, the overlap is a bit less than an inch, so the top of the box would be 6 inches or so.

Even at 6" it's still a bit naff for the cost.

Wasn't saying otherwise. Given the size of the base (3 to 3.5"), it looks inherently unstable. Overpriced nonsense in my view.

I didn't say you were saying otherwise.

Oh and my guess is it's 5.71" across.......

And the main blade on my SAK is 2" long...

Hey Rik, get off the fence and tell us wether you like it or not!

Actually, as a portable BBQ, I quite like the design. It offers more cooking options than other portable wood stoves. Like most of these things though, I think they missed a trick in the overall design. The grilling surface needed to be, at least, 2" bigger and they could have incorporate a better alcohol burner windshield/ pot stand combo when the stove is inverted.

And 70 sheets! Sheesh!

 

[ammo]

It's a nice bit of kit, but at 70 quid, i'd want the seller/shop to cook my first meal.

AND clean the thing out afterwards, and offer me their daughter's hand in marriage whilst they were about it.
