Grillchef Sirius -terassilämmitin, kaasukäyttöinen

Näin korona-aikana sopiva hankinta eläkeläisparille. Toimii hyvin ja lämmittää pitkälle iltaan saaristomökkimme ulkoterassilla, kunhan tuuli ei osu pahasti. Kallistuva hattu on toimiva uutuus. Meillä matalin korkeus hyvä.

Hyvä hinta laatusuhde, muutama mutteri puuttui toimitetusta pakkauksesta, onneksi oli itsellä omassa varastossa korvaavat.

I bought this when it was on sale (124.95 euro) and after the quite straightforward assembly, it seemed okay. However, inserting the 11kg composite bottle is a pain in the butt, as the cover can't be lifted high enough without unscrewing the plastic height adjustment "locknut" and then trying to hold the bulb, cover, etc with one arm (difficult) while inserting the gas bottle with the other hand (also difficult). Not sure what they were thinking with that design. Two person job for sure.

The heat distribution is a bit uneven, but it heats well, and I do like the fact that the heat can be directed a little with the dish on top. After the first use, the metal parts of the angle adjustment mechanism started to flake, which isn't very nice, but not a deal breaker.

My biggest gripe with this is the plastic "locknut" that controls the height of the heater bulb. After a couple of uses, it got a crack and it can no longer hold the heater bulb. So now it can only be in its lowest position, which isn't very good. I've contacted the store regarding how to proceed with this.
