    Gotta be honest it seems a bit cheeky to celebrate your launch with 20% and then follow up with and extra $100 off two weeks later…

      Fair call, totally get how that looks.
      The extra $100 off actually applied to the dual-fuel (butane + charcoal) table we sold out of, not this charcoal-only one.
      We just mentioned it in this post since a lot of people from the last deal were still asking about it.
      This current deal is for the charcoal-only model
      Appreciate you keeping an eye out though 👍

    Bought the insert piece of this on eBay for $30 and grabbed an op shop table for $40. Quick jigsaw hole and it works great for an outdoor bbq with some mates. The table may be high quality but essentially $450 for it seems a bit much.

      Totally get where you’re coming from, but the idea behind ours is long-term value. Most people drop $100+ every time they go out for KBBQ, and this setup literally pays for itself by the 4th BBQ night. Built from 304 stainless and designed to last years, so once you’ve got it, you’re grilling whenever you want, no bookings, no bills!

      • Muchbargains on 19/10/2025 - 10:03

        But when they drop 100 it’s for the food - Wagyu specifically, not the table. You could to Korean bbq 5-7 times by that logic.

        Even if you bought the table, you’d still have to spend about 100+ to get the ingredients. Not worth it imo.

        • haz on 19/10/2025 - 12:30

          You need to consider when you drop $100 in the restaurant, you are paying double or more compared to buying the same meats at a butcher.

      It’s for outdoor use only (balcony, patio, backyard, etc.) even with ventilation, charcoal gives off carbon monoxide which isn’t safe indoors.🫰🏼

      100% fair call! you can find similar-looking ones overseas for that.

      Ours isn’t a buy-and-flip job though. We spent months with the factory improving welds, materials, packaging, and making sure it meets Aussie safety and compliance standards.(we literally flew there)

      Once you factor in import duties, freight, warehouse handling, and warranty coverage, GST, insurance. the landed cost jumps quick, just getting it here safely costs more than most people realize.

      Still cheaper than one KBBQ dinner for 4-5… and you get to keep the table 🔥

      (And if you’ve ever quoted international shipping lately, you’ll know it ain’t pretty 😂)

      • StickBug on 19/10/2025 - 12:55
        +9

        It's not even similar-looking; it looks almost exactly the same. The only thing I can see that you've done is add a metal piece to sit on top of the table to make it 'interchangeable.'

        Taobao doesn't have import duties, just GST, and the shipping cost would only be maybe $100 by boat, if even that.

          Appreciate the effort brother!
          I’ve seen those Taobao listings too. The thing is, what you’re looking at is a domestic Chinese model with no Australian compliance, no warranty, and zero QC or insurance. You can buy it, sure, but you’ll be gambling on shipping, customs, and whether it even arrives safe to use indoors.

          We spent months working directly with the factory to rebuild the welds, thicken the steel, fix heat warping, redesign the internals, and make it compliant for Aussie conditions. That’s why ours clears customs, ships insured, and actually holds up long-term.

          It’s also IP-protected and trademarked here in Australia, so anything using our name or design could run into issues at customs anyway 🫰🏼

          • StickBug on 19/10/2025 - 13:49
            +15

            @Jono96: I highly doubt there would be any issues with shipping or customs. Safety concerns with using butane stoves indoors are always a risk regardless, and they should always be used with extreme caution. So I'm not sure what point you're trying to make there.

            As for your second paragraph, I'm not sure what you're trying to say. It looks identical to the first, aside from the top piece that makes it 'interchangeable'. If that was true you would be able to show side-by-side comparison photos of similar products. Regarding compliance, if your gas stoves are indeed compliant, I’d love to see the compliance plates.

            For your third point, what exactly is IP-protected and trademarked? The only thing I can see that you’ve trademarked is the phrase “KBBQ PLUG,” which you applied for just six days ago and is currently only under consideration. I highly doubt that companies in China would be sending products marked with your company name—if that name is even listed somewhere on the table itself. And in terms of design, you would need a design right or a patent. If you do have that, I’d love to see the source as well.

              @StickBug: I don't have a problem with a mark up for a locally distributed product and it looks like they are doing a good job with after sales support which you won't get dropshipping or sourcing direct from overseas. but "rebuilding welds, thickening the steel, redesigning the internals and compliance for Aussie conditions" does sound a bit cringe

              @StickBug: Yes I’d love to be proven wrong about my initial gut feeling about these guys taking shortcuts just reselling a aliexpress product as their own, which I find a lot of kickstarters doing. Although I could see Chinese factories marking the table with the company name.

              If anyone here who bought one could actually making a comparison on the materials and welds that would be good. Is it marketing fluff or actual?

              Although the only thing making this attractive is the similar product on aliexpress has a shipping fee that exceeds what these guys are offering.

    Sorry, OP, have to share with everyone that the actual KBBQ unit is about $40 on eBay (not sure if I can share a link, so just search 'Korean BBQ'). I've used one for several years - you can fill the bottom with water and rest it on just about any surface without issue. If you're concerned with damaging what's beneath (which may happen if you let the water dry out), just sit it on some bricks or a metal rack.

    Not as tidy as the table posted, but for 8% the cost and 99% of the experience, who can complain.

      No, you don't. You import a table from China. That's fine, you're adding warranty and local distribution. I'm sure there's a market for that.

      There's nothing exclusive about this product. Heck, here's a photo of many, many, many of them ready to go at the factory.

    I am an avid KBBQ enjoyer. I have it 1-2 times a week, very frequently and ritualistically eating it at home.

    Due to the relevant algorithms, I’ve stumbled across this product several times, and it seems much more expensive to other comparable products available locally.

    For example, there is a place in Silverwater that sells charcoal only tables for $299 (compared to your charcoal only table at your ‘discounted’ price of $499.

    Also, as mentioned, I’ve stumbled across your product and viewed your website a number of times, and it appears the table is ALWAYS on sale. This leads me to suspect that the listed RRP isn’t real, and it could be false/misleading pricing, as per ACCC guidelines.

    I understand that starting a new business can be complicated, but I suggest brushing up on ACCC regulations as a bare minimum.

      He's probably "literally flying to china" to modify the designs.

        and personally improving welds, materials, packaging - it's not a buy-and-flip job though

        wonder if we will ever hear from OP again?

    RRP is hugely inflated. These jokers should be named & shamed. Not a real deal.

    I feel sorry for those who ordered from the last deal. What a rip off

      the 100+ upvotes is surprising - it's not easy to fall for a $600 table, some commenters must have been paid, some fell for it.
