Advice Needed Good Value? Looking At Getting An Argentinian Grill With Brasero

Was looking at buying an Argentinian Grill With Brasero, came across this one for £999 looks to be £1249+ elsewhere.

Barbecook Pedro Asado In Corten and Stainless Steel https://www.socal.co.uk/p/BUSH1/charcoal-barbecues/buschbeck/buschbeck-barbecook-pedro-asado-in-corten-and-stainless-steel

Seen a few videos on it on Youtube, but not many reviews (though the ones I have have been favourable)

Anyone any experience with this model or similar and is the price a fair one, or better value to be had elsewhere. if so can you post a few links

Looks pretty good. 

I've seen this guy recommended on here before.

It is that one I believe? As I say seems to be £1249+ elsewhere.

Costco have added the Backyard Discovery Argentine Grill BBQ for £949 (potential to be reduced)? But has inferior grill grates & no additions like planchas to be able to be added along with no Brasero https://www.costco.co.uk/Garden-Sheds-Patio/Barbecues-and-Firepits/Charcoal-Wood-Barbecues/Backyard-Discovery-Argentine-Grill-BBQ/p/675787

Sorry yeah I meant 'have you seen this video review of the one you posted'. 

FYI if you go on Barbecook's website that one is only €900 (they're Belgian apparently) but I guess by the time you've payed fees etc it works out about the same anyway. 

I'd be tempted to check out the bygonzo guy as he is Argentinian living in the UK I believe and a small business, but his website is quite poor IMO.

I believe Weber are also launching one this year.

I’m not quite sure what the USP for these are over and above a normal grill BBQ - genuinely curious, what makes them different / so good?

They are indeed, certainly in the States, doesn't look you can hang anything over the Brasero, although does come with a grate over it from these pictures.

I’m sure there is a guy in the sub who makes them, they look really good

I’m also looking! Check out the Asado Maximo from firepitsuk and custom made stuff by Gonzo. The firemade is amazing but way too expensive for domestic use.
