Warning - the following contains no useful information!
I've had my round Magna for close to ten years now, have cooked on it
a lot and in all sorts of blustery wind conditions, and I have NO
complaints. It chars a very fine piece of flesh, no matter the
weather.
I just thought I should offer my utterly satisfied experience as
balance to the recent flood of Magna bashing. I'm not sure what I
could be doing to deserve such loyal service from my grill; perhaps
the occasional kind words I offer it?
