I rented a house in another state for a couple of months and wanted to be able to grill while there so purchased this..  I like it much better than the baby Weber kettle grill I had years ago to use for picnics.  This is easy to set up, easy to store and has good surface area.  I have a large Old Smokey at my permanent home but when I just want to do a few burgers and brats, this is the go to.
