Totally no interest in this product from me, I don't like gas BBQs let alone electric ones.

However if you have or know someone who gets Blue Light card, then they usually do about 20% on Ninja stuff direct from Ninja...

May as well take a microwave in to the garden and cook in that.
I told you I’ll be back

Oh and it usually stacks with their offers... so in theory that £249 price (same on Ninja as Amazon), you'll get it for around £200 instead. (well it worked when I bought my 15 in 1 off their site , but that was a couple of years back, so they may have limited it now)

Guess it depends on what people want.. 

Do they want "smoked/BBQ'd" food, with out faff. 

Or do they want the blokey ritual or tending to a fire, drinking beer all day cooking a shoulder/short ribs/brisket. 

I want both at certain times. My Weber(s)/pizza over scratch that itch. But I would definitely have one of those woodfires for quick easy midweek "smokes" the pellets really do impart some decent flavour, and its easy to have a range of wood types.

Can't but feel the electric grills take the skill out of cooking a little bit , I use a UDS ( ugly drum smoker ) US style which has taken a fair while to get used to but that way you learn about air intake , temps and charcoal types ( Big K for me).

It definitely does take the skill out of it. But if the result is more consistent for less hassle then you can see the value they offer.

I've done too many 12+ hour briskets, some of which weren't great, to be fucking about these days. 

Although, as Lurker pointed out, there is also value in sitting there for 12 hours supping beer.  I won't throw away my barrel or kettle yet!

The latter is always useful for making tea anyway, I find.
