Professional looking garden BBQ 'best I ever bought' reduced to under £130 for Amazon Prime Day
As the heatwave continues so does the chance to entertain in the garden and surely most people would consider a BBQ as one of the core features required for a social gathering. Arguably nothing tastes better alfresco dining than food cooked on a BBQ plus, if you choose well, it impresses the friends and neighbours, as long as you don't undercook the meat or burn the veggie kebabs. There are a myriad of choices of BBQ available to buy but as part of Amazon Prime Deal Day the VonHaus Charcoal x-large portable BBQ has been reduced by 36% from £199.99 to £127.49. According to the manufacturer, features of the 2-in-1 grill and smoker BBQ include a temperature gauge to monitor the charcoal BBQ without lifting the lid, and then to refuel, simply open the front door and add more – no need to remove the enamel coated, easy to clean grill. With wheels and handles and side shelves that fold down, the BBQ is easy to move about too - including into the shed when it starts raining! One delighted customer felt compelled to provide their feedback, saying: "Best grill I ever bought. I don't usually write reviews but I want to say that this is one of the best products I have ever bought from Amazon. The sheer size of the grill space, the build quality and how beautiful it is. It's also super easy to clean with the ash tray below. And the grill rack is super sturdy, not like other bbqs I bought from other brands", and another buyer total agrees, saying: "Best bbq we've ever bought, absolutely solid, fantastic." Another buyer was impressed with the product's features, commenting: "This is an excellent charcoal barbecue. It is self assembly, but the instructions are very clear. I have now used it twice this summer and it cooks very well. The ability to raise and lower the charcoal to impact on cooking time is super useful, as is the warming rack. The side tables and pegs to hang utensils, along with the bottom shelf for charcoal etc. all make it really practical. It is also really easy to clean."

Took about 1 hour to assemble but definitely worth it. Very professional BBQ and goes together if you follow the instructions." However, one customer was not impressed with the build quality, saying: "It was ok but took a while to assemble and it wasn't made that well so made it really hard in places to get the screws in. Not as good quality as I'd expected for the price."
