Great review, Tom. I've got a friend with an older Blackstone grill/griddle. It still has some issues with wind, but it did come with a windbreak that went around three sides, like this one. The wheels were a lot bigger, too. He got it because of it's portability, when his boy was in he scouts, he would cook all the meals on the bigger camping trips.
Funny thing, the troop wouldn't buy it, but agreed to rent it from my friend for each trip. So, basically, he ended up getting more than he paid for it in the three years of camping trips that he was going to cook for anyway, and the troop ended up with . . . . . nothing ! ! !
