further to this it packs down really well into about the size of a cd and take up about as much room, really the thing if you are looking to travel light, it can also be used with variety of fuels but we went for natural wood for the test

the down side to this little bit of kit is it can be really fiddly, just ask kendogbaggio he done some laughing at me when i was trying to put it together its like a mechano set, you get the hang of it soon enough so wouldnt let that put you off, also i cooked bacon directly on the top of it so cleaning it has been a bit of a nightmare but wanted to travel light so no cheating lol

I would give this little guy a 8 out of 10 and def worth buying esp if you want to go light
