Got mine in a trade on here, but like many found that the wires warped quite quickly and just isn't suited to anything larger than a very small fire. Then again many people love them so I guess you'll have to make your own judgement on that!
Shame really was thinking I wanted to buy one. No point if it warps after the first use.

I have one (not use it in ages) and it's not too fiddly from what I remember. It is heavy though...
Ive not had any significant warping in the half dozen times I've used it but it does suit a smaller fire right enough

I had one, used it once then gave it away, did'nt like it at all. Got mine in a sale at Millets, i got for £10, i think it was bushcraftman on here who had it.

Design wise it's a great idea - reasonably sized self supporting grill which packs down into it's own supporting cylinders, taking up next to no room in a pack. But...
The strength to weight ratio of this thing is rubbish! There are cheaper, lighter, stronger alternatives out there. I wish you'd asked the question before ordering - I'd have said stay away!

I found mine to be impractical. Fiddly, not terribly strong, awkward to clean with all the loose parts. Heavy for what it does. Mine never warped, but it never got much use either. Gadget factor is high, but I think there are simpler and better alternatives.
It seems to me quite a good idea. Don't know about the warping though. Where did it warp on some people?!

Yes but I don't take it backpacking. I chuck it in the car with the firebowl when we go on a pic nic. I also didn't pay full whack.
