I don't think I'd buy this and for the money, I could buy several BDSs and make tons of UDSs. What do you guys think?

Am I missing something? It's just three grills. Three GAS grills.
Oh ... just watched the video. I think the wine glass holder tells us everything we need to know.

Looks like something my brother-in-law might buy to impress me with his "bbq" equipment addition (outdoor island by pool with built in gasser, refer, ice bucket, shade umbrella, mist system, etc.) Both he and his wife are Doctors, and they have more money than they need. So, yup, looks like something he might buy, especially after he saw the recent addition to my collection; My new second hand very ugly drum...

Hey EatonHogBBQ, this wasn't an ad it was just a news story posted. I took it as the author being sarcastic.

I just saw this article about them. Set to come out in 2009.:-D
It looks like R2D2 in "Star Wars," or maybe Rosie, the Jetsons' robot. "Let's deploy the grill," said Craig Hampton, designer of the Hampton Grill, a transformer of a cooking contraption that tucks away three units in a central tower. They unfold on arms to form something that looks like a drum kit. Each grill can be adapted to multiple uses: gas grill, wok, steamer, rotisserie — even ice chest. "We think of it as the iPod of barbecues," said Roxanne Hampton of the California company.
$1,600. No local retailer yet. hamptongrills.com.

Oop's my mistake. I saw the Huck's Hut logo thingy and assumed it was a online retailer. Sorry bout that.
Thanks for the insight

LMAO - they put the word "Hampton" on it and expect people to go gaga over them.
Get a clue! We use 55 gallon drums!

Guess they had some production problems - addie on the website - copyrighted 2007, addie claims coming in spring of 2008! I could see that at some of those McMansions south of here. Lots of those guys have less sense than a chicken.
