Across the 29 rated barbecue & outdoor dining products we track, the typical score is 4.6 out of 5. This one sits at 4.2, which is in the bottom quarter of the category.

It carries 876 ratings against a category median of 3,164. That is a thin base by the standards of this category, so treat the score as provisional: a handful of extra reviews can still move it either way.
On price it sits in the middle third of a category running from £4.79 to £260, where the midpoint is about £18.99. That is the part of the range where most sensible buys sit, neither cutting corners nor paying for the name.
