    Not worth the effort

    published

    This bbq is a complete waste of time and effort. Took this one out for lunch to the park one day. While our friends bbq had lunch ready in 20 minutes our Aldi bbq was still going for another 20 minutes or more. It’s sooo slow to cook, plus it has uneven heat distribution. Complete waste of money. We have purchased a WebberQ now, the best decision we’ve made.

    Dangerous unit.

    published

    First time cooking sausages over the grill, the gas flame exploded with 50cm high flames. Even turning of the gas off at the bottle,the flames still kept leaping up for 30 seconds. Very dangerous, totally blackened the food. Not safe do not use without tin foil over grill plate fat fire was scary.

    Great little BBQ for a small family

    published

    We were going to buy a weber BBQ but instead saw one at Aldi that looks excactly the same and for a third of the price, we thought we would give it a go and I am so glad we did it's portable or you can put it in its stand, there are three in our family and I must say it's just the best and to top it off it's easy to clean as well

    NO Wonder its discontinued

    If you want to stand and watch your meat cook this could work for the price range but you realy get what you pay for. The hotplate coating came off after using it 3 times. the grill part is thin and flimsy. the flame cover rusted in 4 months and it was not even out doors. cleaning is a nightmare.

    Poor performance

    published

    The gas was unable to regulated, it is either flat out or stop and burnt what ever was cooking. When cleaning the plate the 'non stick' surface came off with the first scrub.

    I bought it just for cooking quick steaks and snags and have found it to be great. If you follow the instruction manual is says to cook with the lid closed. I have had the juiciest steaks with the best little grills marks on them. I am super impressed.

    Rather watch paint dry - Low heat output, and bulky are its biggest faults.

    Aldi Portable Gas BBQ

    published

    Value for money! We have a 4 burner w/side wok burner which is great for bigger gatherings. Our son has the ALDI portable BBQ and we'd noticed how handy it was: for a steak for 2 to 4 so now have one we use regularly, whilst it is not a webber it certainly does a reasonable job. AND did not cost hundreds of $'s! I am sure we will get more than our money's worth out of it!!
    reliable, value you for money! Very portable1
    none really, we didn't expect to cook a turkey in it, not for $70.00!

    Hooked it up and there was just no heats, burners are low MJ's and i was lucky to have lunch within 45 Minutes....It will not feed the wild life let alone the Family, It was not a great exprience at all, the body is painted and so after a few uses the paint comes off
