I recently brought one from Las Vegas, where I had it for years, to Florida.  It is bulky, slow to cool, quick to fire up, (as other posters have noted), fun to tell people about because of the name, and the grill plates eventually deteriorate.  I used it many times out west when the park's pavilions or built-in grills were reserved or already in use.  Once, on a Mother's Day outing to southern Utah, when the engine on our '83 Westy blew out in the Virgin River Gorge and we had to be towed into St. George and had to camp in the parking lot of a Chevron station, in the rain, the SonofHibachi performed like a champ.  Our many Hawai'ian friends in Las Vegas never believed I had such a thing until I brought it to the horseshoe pits.  I am so glad I never sold it but brought it to Florida instead. Get 'em while you can!



Best,



Bob
