I also use one of those $25 (now closer to $35 I think) mini-Webers that are
rectangular and have the flip-up legs.  Nice little unit, inexpensive, and
work reasonably well.  However, after two seasons of use, it is now getting
rusty and starting to get difficult to open and close the vents, etc.  Also,
the grill is *always* too close to the fire., and it is a bit bulky.

I think the big advantage of the Pyromid (and part of the cost
justification) is that it is heavy gauge stainless steel.  I have seen these
units, and they really are nifty.  I wish I could talk myself into spending
the $100 on one.  (funny, though, I just talked myself into spending $500 on
shocks and $550 on tires for the Syncro)

Stuart's post actually reminded me that my birthday is coming up, so I added
the Pyromid to my wish list (along with a carpet kit, dash cover, Hella
lights, etc. for the Syncro)  :-)

I definitely see the advantage of the Pyromid over the Weber, no doubt about
that.  However, my (round) Weber is now going on it's seventh year of being
abused, and showing little sign of wear.   And my grill is not close to the
charcoal at all, unless I go nuts and heat up 10 pounds of charcoal, which
is always a possibility after the rig is stopped and the beer is unstopped.
Anyway, my Weber is suiting me fine, but I too have a gleam in my eye for
something like a Pyromid.
