1501 - Kettle Barbecue Grill & Kitchen with Wooden Bottom Shelf.

Have had this for 9 years now. Look forward to the bbq season every year with this bad boy. Always complemented by new guests and has been a talking point of our nights. Cooks great and has kept looking great over the years. Just a normal clean needed before each use. Good size to cook range of foods on. Five stars

I have had mine for several years and it still looks good. Yes the round tops on each upright pop off, I stuck mine on. It cleans up easily and cooks well. Just take care when washing it, as the edges on the stainless steel top and bottom trays are sharp, wear thick rubber gloves, this is the reason it drops one star. I have no problem with the build quality, it is quite robust, whilst the wheels are not large, they haven’t fallen off, but to be fair it doesn’t get moved far. I would definately buy another when the time comes to replace it. Buy the charcoal divider so that you can partition off an area without charcoal, so that there is no direct heat, this makes it easier to control the rate of cooking and not burn the food.

I have had one of these for about two and a half years. It is well designed but the frame is poorly made. The wheels are flimsy and have fallen off, the frame wobbles alarmingly and the caps have come off all the uprights. The kettle itself works well and is solid. The grill is too big to fit in the dishwasher, which makes for a lot of scrubbing. I would not recommend this product for more than a single season's use.

I have had a Dancook 1500 for ten years or so, regularly used and I have found it virtually faultless. The only minor irritation is the caps falling off the uprights, so what, they could be glued in position, also the Dancook rain cover has not been great, I am on my second one and it lets rain in on the seams. The stainless steel construction is very robust and I have had no problem with it being wobbly, though the wheels appear a little flimsy they actually have not proved a problem. After all these years and despite the rain, it cleans easily and looks pretty well like new.Without doubt I would recomend the BBQ which incidentally cooks beautifully, just stick a whole chicken wrapped in foil onto the BBQ, shut the lid, come back an hour later and it is done and not burnt.
