I liked the grill because of its compact design and ease of use. When folded, it does not take up much space, which makes it easy to transport by car, take on a trip or picnic. Assembly is quick, and the structure seems to be quite solid and stable for its small size. It worked well for grilling meat, sausages, or vegetables for several people. The metal is thick enough, and the grill grate is stable. It's a very useful solution for short trips into nature. The downside may be that, due to its small size, it is difficult to prepare a larger amount of food at once, so it may be too small for larger groups.

Very compact. It is perfect for carrying, packing, etc. However, I recommend using it only to directly heat food. Using a frying pan, pot, kettle, etc. causes the grill to not withstand the accumulated heat.
-
Light, folds down to a small size, great for one-time use or many times if you move it while assembled. It's very hard to fold back up after unfolding, and after use it's almost impossible. After contact with fire, the material warps and can't be folded again. I used it at many campfires, carrying it assembled in a canoe until I lost it.
-
Great grill—really, I don't know what others are doing with it in their reviews. Nothing bends if it's heated and cooled gently! Same with tightening, a little feel is all you need, not brute force. It's not a device for feeding a 15-person family or roasting a calf, just for occasional frankfurters. You can easily wash the wires, a metal scrubber is enough.
-
The compactness of this grill is amazing, unfortunately you need to be careful with the fire because mine bent irreversibly very quickly. I tried to heat it and bend it back but it didn’t work.
-
The product was perfectly packed and delivered very quickly, great quality and solid workmanship, very good price! I recommend it and this is definitely not my last purchase!
-
I didn't expect it to be so compact. I don't know if I will ever use it, but it doesn't hurt to keep it in the car. I recommend it if you travel a lot.
-
I read reviews, watched a video, and bought this gadget convinced of the grill's quality. Everything was fine until I boiled water in a small outdoor kettle on it. The grate's rods overheated and bent due to the heat. To sum up, it's more of a gadget that looks cool and you can grill sausages on it, but it's not suitable for other uses.
-
I read the comments, watched videos about the Badger Outdoor BBQ Mini Tube portable grill (including on Militaria.pl channel), and bought it deliberately. All pros and cons are listed—as for me, this is a great product (small, foldable) for tourist use and more. Highly recommended!
-
Awesome grill! Super tiny, very handy, and light. You can easily pack it into a backpack. It fits 4 pork neck steaks at once, with plenty of charcoal underneath from the campfire. Once the pork neck shrinks, you can add sausages. It gets a bit dirty and really greasy at the end, but if there's a river nearby, you can clean it with campfire dust and rinse it, and it works great.
-
Very compact, the weight may not be the lowest, but it is stable when set up. Folding and packing is really a close fit, so I suggest bringing some wet wipes for cleaning the bathroom or something else to remove charred grease—without it, packing may be difficult. Anyway, I highly recommend it, less than 60 PLN is maybe not free, but it's still a fair price for such a well-made product ;)
-
For me, this grill is a revelation at this price. It is not big, yet you can grill up to ten sausages at once. Once unfolded and inserted into the grate's holes, it stays firmly in place. I may not treat it delicately, but I also don't throw it around, and after several uses it still looks like new, despite the paint coming off partially where the coal sits. I take it with me to the water when I go with my family—that is, my wife and three kids—to the beach, and after everyone grills their food, everyone is satisfied. So, it fulfills its task one hundred percent. This is not a grill for a group outing, especially with alcohol, because then it wouldn't survive even one use. It's perfect for a family trip.
-
Great grill, quick and easy to assemble. Takes up very little space in the backpack. This is my second grill of this type and it hasn't let me down, I recommend it to anyone looking for a small grill to take up as little space as possible in a backpack.
-
Great product! Fast and pleasant assembly and disassembly. The ability to take the grate apart into individual pieces makes cleaning it incredibly easy. My tip for use: do not place the grate directly in the flames—the steel tubes tend to sink when exposed to high temperature.
-
Great gadget, not super light but really solid. You need to clean it before folding because the rods fit together almost perfectly. Very tightly fitted.
