Kebab perfection, great value and functionality May 03, 2011
By Troglodyte
"Troglodyte"
Straight out of the box, I managed to make three batches of perfect kebabs on my first attempt with this set. Yes, I bought three sets. Beef, Mediterranean lamb, and Asian chicken all turned out perfectly. The points are sharp enough to pierce meat and vegetables, but dull/safe enough that they don't pierce your fingers. The skewers are flattened just enough that they're still small (didn't split onions), but the chicken didn't spin around like it can do on single wooden skewers. Some reviews suggested that the meat was not resting on the grill - it's not really supposed to be, indirect heat works best. The height of the stands was perfect for 1-1/4" cubes of meat and vegetables to just lightly contact the grill(1-1/4" cubes are ideal for slight char on outside yet still cooked through over med-high heat without overcooking veg).
So, perfect results, why not 5 stars? I'm giving a 4 out of 5 for three reasons - the frame folds, and can be a little tricky on the grill lifting the skewers to turn them (probably just need to get used to them). The rings at the top of the skewers have a slight gap, and when they don't have food on them, they tend to get stuck to each other worse than a bunch of empty clothes hangers. The notches where the skewers rest in the frame are rounded at the bottom, so the skewers sometimes want to rotate to one side or the other (hard to control the precise angle - critical for 90-degree rotation every 2-3 minutes.)
Two of these fit on the grill at the same time (I've just got an average-sized propane grill). Just make sure to place the rings on the outside on both sets (away from each other) for ease of access with tongs for rotating.

The prongs are ok, the rack is not Oct 19, 2011
By Vip
""all""
THe prongs do the job but if you insist on using the accompanying rack you are out of luck. Everything becomes to crowded very quickly and you can't really fit everything on there -- as shown in the picture. Blah Blah Blah -- I still use it.

Thin and Twisted Jul 22, 2011
By RIE Right out of the box the frame was twisted and bent. The metal frame is so thin and pliable that it dents with the lightest pressure. The skewers, being made of the same metal don't bode well for heavy duty use but should be suitable for softer meats and vegetables. I suspect this set will last a couple of uses at best. Because it is cheap I can accept it as a disposable item for limited use..but they are just barely acceptable.

Works fine! Jul 23, 2011
By GeeMan I'm very happy with the set. I use mine in my oven on a large baking sheet. The skewers are not round, so when you turn/rotate the food, it works.
