We have a fantastic Sahara BBQ that makes cooking for large groups quite easy. We purchased the smoker box and wood chips which added a lovely Smokey taste.
Couldn’t recommend it highly enough, delighted with it

BBQ component replacement

Just wanted the broken plastic regulator knob replacing after first use but after contacting SaharaBBQs was immediately sent the whole regulator unit. Great, prompt, no quibble customer services. Thanks guys.

Awful customer service and only supplies propane regulators

Delivery originally planned for mid morning but just kept being delayed.

BBQ only came with propane regulator. It says it can burn propane OR butane (I use butane).
When I rang customer service to order a butane regulator I was told in a very off hand manner Sahara "don't do" butane regulators. Had to find a 3td party supplier to resolve.
Wouldn't use any company again which has a disrespectful customer service.

Poor customer service

Product itself good but not delivered within timescales.
Had to phone customer service who didn’t seem interested whatsoever and never called me back despite advising would.
Shame as we’ve bought this company products before and are good quality but would definitely think twice before purchasing again

Brilliant BBQ

Nice sturdy BBQ, came promptly (courier did provide updates of delivery). Heavy to move in the box but I expected. Easy to put together, instructions simple to follow. Fantastic BBQ, love it. Had a slight issue with paint peeling in one area after the first use. Contacted Sahara with pictures and a replacement part sent out within a day or so. Cannot fault it. Get it, you won’t be disappointed. My oven is redundant for now.

Lovely bbq easy to put together lit up straight away. The heat is amazing. Looks great. It is very heavy to move but that’s reassuring for very windy days.
Only negative not much correspondence regarding delivery had a text in the morning to say something was coming that morning and that was it. That could be improved

Delayed delivery

We had previously purchased our BBQ with no issue but ordered a pizza stone which took over 2 weeks to be delivered. When i called to chase the order the delay was blamed on staff not being in and bulking orders together to send to the UK leading to delay. Beware if you are ordering and expecting quick delivery

Don't normally write reviews but given the customer service from Alan feel compelled to. Having made the mistake in ordering a cover too small Alan has gone above and beyond on helping me return it for the correct size. Don't often see this support elsewhere. 5 star company to buy from.

It's not often you come across a company that has what you need, has a friendly and professional team at the other end of the phone AND gives you want you want. (Thanks to the Rolling Stones for this play on words!)
Super help and service for my broken Provence Heater.

Great Customer Service

I had a small issue with a stove and found Sahara BBQs on the internet. The issue was complicated by my moving back and forth between the UK and France.
Sahara sorted out my issue, with little fuss and a lot of friendly help and advice and now the stove is working perfectly once more. Many thanks, particularly to Alan, for being so helpful. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Cal (France)

Gas fire problem

Had a problem with a portable gas heater not staying alight. Spoke with Alan (twice). He was very patient and understanding (I am quite hard of hearing) and provided the answer to the problem. Great customer service!
