Landmann DIY Charcoal Barbecue

Perfect for the barbeque.

Exactly how it is advertised, very pleased. Good value.

Finally built the bbq! Tested this kit out last weekend and does the job fine. The charcoal grid is high enough from the hearth (base) to allow for air to circulate and ash to fall in which is good because it burns hot, and coals that burn twice as hot burn half as long!However, there is no way to remove the ash in use without removing the hearth as its edges fold in against the length (to stop the ash spilling over). So not sure how marathon bbq's would fair (yet).Also after first (and so far only) use there was some warpage on both the grid and hearth from the sheer heat. In addition some of the powder coating had come off the grid. I'm not expecting this to be an issue - hopefully it has bedded in now and won't warp further but it does mean this kit could not be left exposed to the elements as I reckon it would rust fairly quickly. I put mine back in the box after use and store under the prep area.The grill is fine - not top quality stainless steel you get on a Webber but chrome plated by the looks of it but at this price that is fine. So long as I'm not too harsh with the wire brush and, again don't leave it out too long, it should last a few summers.Here's hoping the fine weather continues! Cheers

Great for what we needed

Having to send back

Excellent

Delighted with my purchase good quality already had a couple of BBQs

The picture here and on the box is a bit disturbing. I wouldn’t recommend using ‘block paving’ bricks to build a barbecue, nor would I recommend building a brick structure this high without securing it with mortar! Following the instructions (with mortar!), it’s quite high but ideal for garden chefs in the region of 5’10 as our old barbecue always gave me backache!The mortar I used was 1 part cement and 4 parts sand, and for estimation (because it depends how much you use for each brick) I used a whole standard sized bag of cement.In use, it works very well. I installed the support bricks as pictured in the image here and on the box (centrally positioned so they stick out on both sides) rather than in the instructions (flush from the outside with half the brick sicking out on the inside). I attempted to follow the instructions but the physics were all wrong and as soon as I put another brick on top, the weight of the overhang was too great. Now that we’re using it, I’m glad I didn’t persevere and make the outside flush because the larger overhang inside would have made it more difficult to move the position of the grill rack during use.The poor instructions and images have lost this 5-star product one star because if the structure isn’t right, it’s not going to be a 5-star product!!

Fits well

... erfüllt seinen Zweck ohne Tadel! Störend ist der im Nachgang erforderliche Heimwerkerteil ;)Da muss ich noch ein wenig tun bis zur ersten Wurst!

produit très bien emballé,super grande grille,pratique pour grand barbecue: grille et caisson à charbon, facile d'utilisation.attention ! les briques ne sont pas fournies avec, vu le prix.

a recommander

Completo di griglie è la base per il mio nuovo barbecue . La lamiera di cui è costituito è troppo leggera e con il calore si deforma leggermente a barca . Comunque utile per non mettere a contatto la base del barbecue con la brace.
