    It looks really cool! Making one occupied my thoughts for a few months a few years back, never got around to it though.

    Ya... if you handy with DIY you would be able to make one yourself as it is very basic! But I am not kind of guy unfortunately!!

    I only paid €175 including a cover for the 200ltr version....including free delivery in a Flash Sale. They have a Facebook account you could 'Like' and keep an eye on it from there

    If you make up one..... post it up for us to admire!

    Bumping this in February 2021

    Home store & More doing Sale on BBQs ..... link to my one below

    https://www.homestoreandmore.ie/gas-bbq/master-cook-connoisseur-600-6-burner-bbq/055910.html

    I bought ay €249 in 2015 and it now €399...... saucy.

    Mine is under cover outside for past 5 years and unfortunately the internal gas tubing starting to rot and break. Might invest in a smaller one this year. A Gas one is handy on an evening when in a hurry and waiting for my charcoal to light up etc.

    Anyone see other offers .... please post

    masala, you can buy replacement tubing for them (i'm assuming you're talking about the channel between the burners)

    I have the same model and have replaced them once, but they only lasted 2 years. still better than buying a new replacement

    this is the link to the ones i bought...crossover kit

    just in case anyone else is thinking of this, you can also replace

    the burners (depending on the state of your bbq, where these are fixed to the sides of the bbq it may be difficult to remove the old ones and then attach the new ones)
    the flavorizer tents

    it is, you just have to adjust the width. i didn't bother securing mine, so every now and then would check to make sure they stayed in position

    Anyone else seen any good deals around Ireland for a decent sized gas bbq? I bought a lovely portable weber which we currently use and also for camping but looking for something bigger for entertaining that won't cost an arm and a leg!

    i wasnt' sure about this either Masala - so i just put them gingerly in place and tried to extend them as much as possible so they stayed between each burner - exactly like your photo.

    It didn't seem to affect the delivery of gas to each burner or gas usage...

    they did fall a few times when i moved the bbq, but it was just a matter of putting them back in place.

    Don't be fooled by false "special" pricing.

    Check online, normal UK prices seem to be very similar to home store "33%" off prices.

    Basically they are "reduced" to a more normal price.
