I have three of them that I bought during a Groupon sale. You need at least 4 for them to be worth your while. Given the choice again, I wouldn't buy. If you don't have cast iron to cook a steak on, then they are ok I guess. To me, they are more of a pain than helpful.

I also own a Steve Raichlen Tuscan Grill topper (the legs are removable). http://www.amazon.com/Steven-Raichlen-B ... scan+grill It also is a little small for my liking, but it is a lot easier to manage on the grill. The Man Grates are really heavy. My $0.02

I can't always please everybody. I'm not bacon.

+1... although I received mine as a gift. I wasn't impressed with the casting quality - forget about the little flavor channels they show in the brochure. If you get them hot enough they do leave a nice grill mark. When my gas grill died last year I oiled them, wrapped in newspaper and stuck them on a shelf.. where they still reside.

Last week while on spring break i was able to use these man grates i received in the mail. Turned out to be pretty good. Steak came out juicy and to my perfection. I think i'll keep these for now.
