It's a charcoal bbq, not electric
Thought I'd do my part in making a joke, but apparently people don't get it. Ah well
@GRP: Upvotes or downvotes are imaginary anyway, real shooters don't stop sending zingers even after a few misses.
@frowny: Speaking of Zingers, Colonel Sanders was rejected 1009 times before selling his first franchise
@frowny: Not when someone may have read and made a purchase based on your comment… (ie. make it clear it's a joke so ppl aren't mislead)
@The Hobo: I dunno mate, if you read a comment that says a BBQ that's too small to fit a chicken in it weighs the same as a vented dryer "because of the electronics", that's pretty funny to me honestly.
Isn't this the same grill that was $149 earlier this year?
I think the general consensus was that it was a bit too small.

No dimensions and linked review suggest it is tiny.
If you can't fit a chicken in let alone a leg of lamb it is useless.
Problem with it is due to size it heat up at maximum temperatures very quickly and burn off all the charcoal within the hour too, the vent does bugger all in controlling the burn rate unlike the normal size kamado. Good for making midget pizza or a quick grill skewer, anything else will be burned off even with deflecting heat plate.
Considering you'd only fit 3 heatbeads max in this one, can only assume you'd burn through it pretty quickly.
It seems too small for indirect cooking of a chicken or ribs.
The handles are likely a comfortable size for a human hand to grip. A typical handle for this kind of grill would be around 10-15 cm (4-6 inches) long.
Given this, the grill seems to be a compact, tabletop or portable model, not a full-sized kamado.
* Overall Height: Around 45-55 cm (18-22 inches)
* Overall Width (including handles): Around 45-55 cm (18-22 inches)
* Cooking Grid Diameter: The cooking grid looks to be a bit less than the width of the main body. A reasonable guess would be around 30-38 cm (12-15 inches).
This type of grill is often marketed as a "mini" or "tabletop" kamado, and these dimensions align with that category.Had a small one like this from a bunnings deal before. Was very annoying to use and ended up selling it after minimal use.
I have the Kamado Joe, and it took me a year to work it out. Hated it at first, love it now.
Maybe I'm blind but is this gas, charcoal or electric?
