Well, we think this super-stylish barbeque is cool in every which way, and not just to the touch. We have just sold a traditional kettle-style barbeque that has been taking up space in our not-so-large garden. We felt we just didn’t use it enough to justify keeping it, but now I’ve seen these colourful, contemporary Halo Cooltouch Barbeques, I’m wondering if maybe we do have space after all, and should be more enthusiastic about outdoors grilling.
With its sleek, glossy and somewhat space-age curves, the Halo barbeque has definite design credentials, unlike most other barbeques which are very much on the utilitarian end of the aesthetic spectrum.
But it’s not just pretty on the outside; designed and made in the UK, the Halo Cooltouch Barbeque also has a raft of safety and efficiency features that set it apart from run-of-the-mill grills: a triple layered aluminium body keeps the outside cool – 37 degrees centigrade as opposed to nearly 200 degrees for traditional models; the insulated construction also stops heat loss so it’s incredibly fuel-efficient – you get much more cooking time for less charcoal; the grill racks, made from marine-grade stainless steel, have been designed to fit into a dishwasher and won’t rust; and being taller than average, the Halo Cooltouch is more comfortable to cook on and won’t easily tip over.
The Halo’s designer, John Tomalin-Reeves, has been dubbed “the Dyson of the barbecue” not only for coming up with a radical new design for a traditional product, but also for insisting that it be manufactured entirely in the UK.
The Classic Halo Cooltouch comes in six colours, including chic and smart Black and White and also the bright and bold Bubblegum Pink and Arizona Blue pictured above; you can specify your own bespoke version too – visit www.halocooltouch.co.uk for more information, pictures and to buy online.
