If you decide to buy one of the accessory plates, the stir-fry plate I think, you get a free handle with this !!!! We have had our cobb since about 2004 only replaced handle because we lost it, Allan made it. However, unlesss your order is above £45, P&P costs are £3.50.įormer Scout, Thanks for that, will have to invest in a new one I think, shame it's gonna cost £ 6 in total though. lost the handle thingy for grill, must of left it at site image: - forum_images/smiley19.gifĭid consider cadac stuff- but wanted an alternative to gas cooking- if cylinder fails/runs out/or using for stove to cook other bits- glad we chose cobbīebbs, you can buy a new grill handle direct from COBB. Not had any problems so far with anything breaking. Cooks a roast really well- brill taste, and cooked chicken nuggets and waffles for children easily and quickly for first night 'quicky' meal, with pizza and garlic bread for us. We love our new cobb,bought recently. used it this weekend, meant that we could cook for family despite the weather. I agree with you steve although most cobb owners have experienced zero problems a few have in regard to the non stick plates and the original plastic bowls either splittin or melting hence the change to s/s.Īnd CADAC ? waste of money. Right let me give you my opinion !!! I have got the newer Cobb and swear by it, but this is what I have found : The coating does come off the grill plate, but, only if you use any sort of scourer as I have done !! As far as cooking times go, the only time I have found mine to be slow is when it is windy and to rectify this I use a small concertina type wind-break placed around it !! Finally, it has got to be the most versatile piece of kit you could ever buy !!!!!!!! Its called A Cadac Remember that name and buy a Cobb As for the weight.īetter Probably is better than a lot of makes of barbie but I'll stick with my Cobbįaster.To burn it on the outside & leave it raw in the middle. It's the biggest problem with a Cobb barbeque.īigger' Try finding space to keep it amongst the rest of your gear. You forgot to mention that a Cadac is heavy, a job to clean,blowes out easy,and food tastes the same as when cooked in a gas oven. Ok so it might take a few mins longer to cook than 'certain gas powered devices' but the food is cooked thoroughly not burn on outside and raw in middle :) No problem with our cobb at all, mesh style we bought in sept 2006 cooks everything we want it to and more. Got to go now as i need to turn up my fan heater in the bedroom pod!īigger' Better Faster.Its called A Cadac Cold beans and Bread for meals.With the increase in camping gadgets we are not watching our carbon footprint. Only stating the facts, ) we luv the cobb but quality control needs improving.Īre we talking about the same sort of Cobb barbeque? Mine has been absolutely faultless. Quote: Originally posted by scarletsfan on Its slow at cooking, but you can do so much with it, far more than a £ 10 BBQ from woolworths!! I have not had any problems with the non stick grill. I have had my mesh type Cobb since June 2006 and it is the best thing I have bought in the last ten years of camping. We have a Mk1 Cobb (ie black plastic outer) that was purchased 4 yrs ago for £35 as it was old stock.It had a plain ali grill plate which we replaced with the non stick version.It is still going strong and giving great service.The only problem with it is that you can't remove the inner bowl, which makes it a 'B' to clean,but as a replacement is nigh on £100,I can live with it. How dare you dis the cobb o ) n this forum Woolworths sell BBQ's for £8.50 which don't suffer the same problems. Obviously there was design faults with the original casing hence the move to stainless steel (and price increase) that Cobb were not going to own up to and also problems with the adhesion of the none stick coating to the grill plates.Īlthough we like the concept and practicality of the Cobb feel that problems like this should not happen on a piece of kit costing approx £100.00. We sourced our Cobb from Cobb UK and when we contacted Graham about the problems it seemed we were the only ones experiencing these type of problems!!!! The third plate had a different finish to it and has lasted well to date (touch wood). ![]() Just been trolling thru some old comments concerning problems with Cobb BBQ cases melting/splitting, non stick peeling off etc and can confirm that we are on our second case, new metal type (the original black plastic one split in two places) and our third grill plate as original one started losing the coating after about 6 uses and the replacement plate lasted the same. ![]() Printed From: .uk Camping and Caravanning Equipmentįorum Description: Advice and queries on all camping and caravanning, and outdoor equipment from airbeds to fridges! ![]() ![]() Cobb Faults Discussion Printer Version - .uk Forums Advertisement
