Have a 9 year old ozpig and it has travelled with us around Australia..getting a bit old, so have bought the new large one for home, looking forward to it...

At the end of the day it’s just a metal cylinder so how the price can be more than twice as much as other similar products baffles me? Plus the fact it hardly works unless the top is open, the accessories are over priced as well. Would rather have bought a cheaper version as this one has rusted already and won’t ever get taken camping.

Great little cooker/heater that doesn't need a lot of practice to cook perfect roasts.
Packs away great
Fantastic additional features to purchase to keep the pig burning every night to cook something new each time
Very hardy and durable
Washes and cleans up quite easily
Easy to assemble and disassemble

It all packs away into a handy carry bag, is easy to assemble (just screw the legs on, put the chimney pieces together, slot the plate in and you are away). With the charcoal basket it is even more flexible in places like caravan parks, etc. The rotisserie is brilliant and makes other campers envious. Brilliant. We use it when camping and also at home. There are lots of accessories that make it even more versatile. Not cheap, but will last a long time. We love it.

Have had the Ozpig for around 6 years now and it’s great. We go from cooking a roast, boiling the billy to using it for a fire place. It packs up small and uses only a small amount of wood compared to a fire pit. Take it camping everywhere and a lot of van parks permit you to have a fire in the pig

Best fire I have ever owned. Great for camping and cooking with the kids. We cook roasts on the spit to curry in the camp ovens and of course nice and contained for roasting marshmallows and boiling hot chocolate.
Very good range of accessories available and great price. highly recomend.

I've had my ozpig for around four years, and have enjoyed owning it.

I've used it many times in the backyard for parties to help everyone keep warm. It does look after the grass, and takes the flames higher off the grass than your typical firepit. However, if you run it very hot (by shoving timber down its throat) it will still dry out the grass beneath it. Not enough to kill it, I've given mine a big water the next day and in a week or so it's come good again. But definitely a dry patch for that time.

I've also taken it camping many times and have enjoyed many campfires around it. We've not done heaps of cooking on it, but have done some steaks on the hotplate as well as marshmallows of course!

When searching for a fire pit I came across the OzPig, the integration of the accessories is what finally sold me on one. Great for that open fire flavour to spit roasts and provides good area heating when stoked up a bit. Best when used with well seasoned timber to help prevent smoke

Couldn't live without it now. Been on many camping trips. Great little fire pit, cooking, spit roasting with coals or wood. Lots of accessories. Just brought a water tank to hang off side now have constant hot water with minimal fuss. Sorry just blabbering on because needed fifty words min. But we'll worth it.

Great little versatile outdoor heater / bbq. Easy to transport and set up when travelling or st home. Have cooked some great meals on the bbq or using a camp oven. Cooks/ heats just as well with wood/ charcoal or heat beads. Active fb page with great suggestions and recipes. Accessories can be expensive.

Love it. Wouldn't sell it for twice what I paid. Got all the extras. Love cooking on it and keeping warm by the little piggy. The kids love it too, perfect for roasting marshmallows. We even use it at home. Join the Ozpig Facebook group for tips on cooking and inspiration.

love it, take it camping all the time, when not camping we use it on our verandah, I often put casserole in pot in fridge and when hubby comes home, he lights the pig and cooks dinner. well and truly cooking when I come home. versatile and easy to clean . can use just as a small fire pit if you don't want to cook on it. haven't found anything negative about it .

Great compact cooker/heater. Sit it in under the awning in any weather with the offset flue. Cooks the best steak by far. Easy to use and many add on accessories to please all kinds of cooking methods. Nice warm heat or get a roaring fire going by removing the top plate and use as a fire pot.

Had mine for years best thing ever
Added a vented door and offset chimney and it’s mint
Can be smoky on startup but use small pieces and get it roaring
Extra leg kits a must tho heaps of accessories avail to suit anyone be good if a tad cheaper but overall I’d def buy another

Best investment ever love

The pig is versatile, lightweight and has numerous accessories that allow you to grill.use a rotisserie or slow cook in a camp oven. It packs into a milk crate for travelling. It will keep you warm, and entertained whilst cooking your dinner. Everyone I know that owns a pig raves about it. I'd recommended for use both camping and at home.

Great idea, but several problems. The main being the chimney is way too small so any fire requires the top to be open and the door open as well. I bought a mesh door, of little benefit. It's not usable under an awning. I'm so bitterly disappointed given I paid $530 for it and the accessories. A complete rip off.

We have had this for a year or so now and it has been a little ripper. It packs up beautifully in the Patrol yet I can have it set up and fired up i n 20 minutes. We cook on it and it provides a warmth while we sit around and tell stories. You need to leave the door open to get the fire going well and its sort of mesmerising to look at while you sink a few. Its like a kitchen range of old that packs up in your car. It can be a messy beast unless you clean it properly before transporting. Overall these are great and make outdoor live much better.

The Oz Pig is a very handy camp fire, its a compact size about the same sizeof a 9 kg Gas Bottle, the chimney comes with mesh cap to put into the chimney to stop sparks setting fire to the bush simply put it together on a flat surface put in some small sticks plus scrunched up news paper, lite it up and you're all set. You can boil water on it or cook great steaks on it using a BBQ plate that you will need to purchase separately . We use ours away camping plus in the back garden, good to use as as fire pit, super warm just the ticket on a cold night.
