we normally but our bbq's from a name brand bbq shop, but this time decided to give the Matador a go ( after out last expensive bbq failed again)..it is so much better than we anticipated, the fat draining system is so much better than some of its competitors and is easy to use and clean..i also now use the bbq clean wipes and the plates and bbq itself is staying clean very easily . it is solid with plenty of room to cook with nice big plates. Would highly recommend and buy again if the need ever arose .

Bunnings said 1 hour assemble. It was more like 3 or 4 hours, things didn't line up, nuts wouldn't thread, the instructions were vague and didn't make sense with little dialogue explaining the process. I would recommend via Bunnings to get one of those guys who assemble for you. My brain was sore after the effort.
Once we fired it up it was fine, but a long winded process.

The BBQ has a unique fat draining system with curved channels in the grill plate as well as the grill and hot plate tilted to the front to a channel that collects the fat at the side. Put some fat soak in the container. It is amazing how much fat accumulates. Good heat from the BBQ with all burners on. Easy to adjust heat down if needed.

My husband got one of these last year for his birthday and has been grilling ever since. It was a nightmare to assemble and took the better part of 2 days for him to set it up just right, but once done he has been happy. It tends to run a little hot so we cook everything on low.

After replacing a new gassmate bbq that was useless with the matador titan i couldn't be happier. Grill works great with ceramic tile diffusers, haven't used hotplate side alot,but heat distribution is pretty good. Front is slightly cooler than the rest but still usable unlike the gassmate bbq! Also used a couple of times as an enclosed oven for roast and pizzas. Works great, heats up quick and can get very hot if not careful! Only real disappointment is the warming rack. Its very deep-which could be a good thing- but makes it difficult to access food cooking from middle off plate/grill to the back. Fairly easy to remove so if its not Really needed i remove it.

After much research and reviewing, I bought this from Bunnings and could not be happier. :)
Although not cheap at $1190.00 I think its money well spent.
Its fast to heat up and retains heat extremely well, due to double skin SS lid and being able to see how the food is cooking thru the glass window saves a lot of heat loss.
The burners and grill plates are cast iron, and above which there are ceramic tiles which I think aid in heating performance.
Its well built weighing in roughly 90kg, It has castors but personally it wouldn't being something I would want to move around much..
As I like good charring marks on my food it has not let me down.
Happy cooking to all

I bought an obsolete Titan 6 BBQ and a heavily reduced price and it was assembled so all I needed to do was to connect a gas bottle. The lid has a see through section so you can check on cooking progress and the lid feels solid and not flimsy. The gas burners work well, cooking food effectively. Handy drawer to store utensils and plenty of space underneath next to gas bottle to store a spare bottle. Mine came with two solid plates and one grill. Very happy with the purchase so far.
