Masterbuilt® Portable Charcoal Grill and Smoker with Cart Black

I own several grills at home, from Weber, Kamado Joe and Masterbuilt and was keen to have something relatively portable that could give the same results away from home. It doesnt dissapoint. For less than the cost of 57cm Weber, this is an incredible piece of kit. It uses so little fuel that a single bag of briquettes would last for months. At one point I lit the grill at 08:00 for breakfast whilst camping, then due to heavy rain, shut it down barely 15 mins later. It happily sat at 90c for around 5-6 hours (in the rain). Then I added just 5-6 more briquettes, fired the fan back up and it instantly rose to 200c where it stayed for the next 4 hours. An incredible design & worth every penny!!

Update: I replaced this with another to see if the bent frame was a result of shipping damage - it was not. They have some serious quality control issues at Masterbuilt and reports of electronics failiing as well are ll over the internet which means this will be goign back. The legs on both are noticably bent on more than one part. If you remove the base you can see that parts that shoudl lie flat do not and are siginisficantly out. it would be almost impossible to do this via damage in shipping so this is how they leave the factory. Perhaps Amazon is getting factory seconds, perhaps Masterbuilt just ship their junk to the UK, maybe all their products are just rubbish. Defintiely don't spend money on something that can't bbq anything thicker than a chciken leg anyway.After assembling per the instruction the bbg is noticably bent with an obvious slope forward. The legs are not square and there is no obvious damage so this is either poor build or poor design. It lloks as if the frame is just badly welded together. For the price this is ridiculously poor quality control.In addition the cooking area is far smaller than they claim. The surface area may be what they say but there is only a few inches of vertical space so chance to put a single chicken in there let alone the 3 they claim. I suppose you could limit yourself to pigeons. For somethign they were selling for £400 I would expect a little better build quality at least.
