I would not use in the tent unless it is very well ventilated. Poisionous fumes come off the heat beads / charcoal and people have been reported to not wake up after bringing their BBQ's into their tents to keep warm
Prices are on the link provided previously at the foot of the article, plus links etc to the manufacturers website where you can order from

I can't find the link but a couple who brought the Cobb into their tent were hospitalised, one was in a worse state than the other and almost died.

I think I'm convinced lol
I'd like to think it was a combination of people's comments that swayed me, but, if I'm honest, it was the roast pork sandwiches lol
Think I'd better start smoking so I can give it up and have spare cash lol------------- The Tentguy cometh

Hi Ratty, This link on the Cobb Premier page is not working.
""Check out here for more great deals on the Cobb Premier""
It just links us through to Caravan Insurance.
