Burger Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 Hi Everyone - i'm absolutely obsessed with bbq cooking on charcoal & whilst looking for new recipes i just happened on a blog about Komodos - i was instantly taken with the shape & the many ways of cooking on them especially pizza. I was wondering if there is anyone in the UK local to me (south east coast) who has one i could look at & see working? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdbower Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 I'm in South East New England, does that count? In a pinch I've got a laptop and a webcam if that'll help you out. I can also throw in some spurious "u"s when I say "favourite" and the like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mguerra Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 I don't know if there are any KK's in your neck of the woods, but welcome aboard this forum! Read everything. Then have Dennis send you a KK. After you read these forums, you'll be compelled to anyway. I imagine most of us bought them sight unseen, well, except for the photos here.

edusites Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 Re: Anyone own a KK in the UK? I'm in the UK too and have just read some articles about the KK - very impressed but disappointed not to be able to find info on how to see / buy them in the uk. I enjoyed this YT promo: I'm sure there are lots of others. Kind regards, Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisLinkletter Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 KK ships factory direct to most ports worldwide KK ships factory direct to most ports worldwide, either completely free or for a surcharge of less than $100. You will then be responsible for the custom's clearance, any applicable taxes and local delivery. Please contact me via the contact page on the website, I'll reply with an information loaded Email.

jacklondon Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 Re: Anyone own a KK in the UK? Gents - I'm in south west london and have a all singing all dancing KK OTB in my garden. I'd be happy to give you a walkthrough if you like... if the weather holds, its nearly october afterall. delivery wise - duty and delivery from the port was about £600 - but when you try to move it yourself, you'll understand why its an expensive thing to move around. apologies for not responding sooner, its been cooking up a storm all summer.

TheNakedWhiz Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 Re: Anyone own a KK in the UK? JB, is there an option to pick it up at the port and save the delivery charge (assuming you could rent, borrow, etc. a vehicle for transporting it yourself)?

jacklondon Posted September 26, 2011 Report Share Posted September 26, 2011 yeah - i guess so, but the lions share of the fee was duty. I have to tell you though, it took four of us to move it on a pallet trolley to keep it stable, it weighs an astonishing amount.... you really need a delivery truck with a drop tail or crane to drop it of the truck.... if you pick it up yourself in a hired van and drop it on the kerb trying to get it out of the van with the wrong equipment, you're gonna be upset to say the least!

IanP Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Re: Anyone own a KK in the UK? Hi Jack, it's been a long time since this post. Could you let me know any problems you may have had when importing your KK and how you got it delivered from port to your garden - if you can still remember! Cheers, Ian.

5698k Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Re: Anyone own a KK in the UK? I'm pretty sure that a large majority of kk owners bought theirs sight unseen, including me. I'm also sure that those same owners have no regrets about their purchase, including me. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
