I love the name... the idea looks great.. but as with most infomercial-products It probably sucks.

sounds good
did you purchase your "soh" in the uk?
Yeah - ebay.co.uk sorted me out. I got the snuff out pouch, and a 3rd grill, which is 1/2 grill 1/2 hotplate for about £50

I have one and love it!
Lights up fast, economic on coals and you can put it away hot in it's carry bag. And it take a lot less room than a standard grill. Closed up, it is about 6 inches thick, 12 inches wide and about 20 inches long. Being rectangular shape it fits anywhere.

I'm not sure I like the put-it-away-hot deal...

i'm not sure either about the safety of the hot in bag feature.
but i do like the reasonable price and the portable fold up design and the self cleaning feature.
I've used this gas Weber for many years and it's done a fine job on the trail.
yes, it's propane, but honestly, I think a small bottle or two are much easier to deal with on the trail than bags of charcoal.

Given that charcoal isn't allowed most of the summer in the Sierra gas is a good choice. I like my $40 Walmart grill.I've used this gas Weber for many years and it's done a fine job on the trail.

I don't recall it being called "Son of Hibachi" but we had one in college (15+ years ago) that was almost identical. It worked well, but eventually self destructed after fairly substantial use.
Back then they were just called Hibachi's I'ts a Japanese style grill.
My Mom had one when i was a kid (20+ years ago) I always wondered if they still sold them.
Im getting one for sure.

some kind of fire proof canvas.

yeah...
sure.
call me skeptical, but I have doubts about canvas' ability to be completely fireproof...
may be they used some other kind of fire proof material other than cotton canvas.
coated with asbestos?
I wore fire shirts when I work with the Forest Service. They did not burn, I know this from first hand experience. I was working a fire that crowned out over my head, it was pretty much raining fire. My shirt did not catch fire. I got burned through the shirt, and my boots were fried but I did not catch fire.

I got the next bus back to Nevada.
Forest fire fighters have bigger stones than I do.
