Snowpeak frustration, any alternatives????

[Dave Bennett]

I did email Paul at Equipt on your behalf to see if he had any so I'll let you know if I hear back. Also I've emailed my colleagues in Japan to see when we can expect the next shipment to arrive and I'll get back to you then.

Thanks to some great customer service from both Paul at Equipt & John at EE, I was able to secure a Baja Burner recently with the adapters for multi canister fuel.

Lucky you, badly waiting for it to be available. I have the full IGT4 set, but this the missing piece. Hope it is available before spring.

Thanks Joey, any ETA on the stock will be great help. Already made big investment in this setup, so cannot and really do not want to move to any other.

I waited for a for a case for my Snow Peak twin BBQ box for 2 years. Tired of waiting, I paid the factory a visit to pick one up.

That's awesome! I'll be there next month and will have a ton of pictures to share.

Did ya get anything else when you were there ?
And did you look at that tipi tent in that one pic up close ? Wonder who makes that ?

Want to get there one day

Sanjo (where Snow Peak is located) is way off the beaten path. It's near the Sea of Japan, on the West coast. Most of the population and much of Japan's industry is on the East coast. I travel to Tokyo several times a year, but I have never ventured west of Nagano. The mission to go to Snow Peak allowed me to see the Sea of Japan and go to Sado Island. Well worth the weekend trip. I also picked up a Kanpai bottle, I never would have spent nearly $90 (¥ is still very strong) if I had not seen it in person. In addition, I bought a cast iron griddle and other accessories for my Twin BBQ box.

By the way, I love having my BBQ away from the rest of my cooking and food prep. I highly recommend Snow Peak's Twin BBQ Box Pro. It's a great value, too.

Here's a closer pic of the teepee tent. I did not see a brand on it.

Thanks

Nice to see it next to the landlock setup

Funny in that pic the fire pit has those square shield shelf like thing around it ?
Really think those would be cool and seem to be huge over there

Sounds like a fun trip

Joey, just like Sojourn am waiting for twin bbq case and Baja Li for sometime now. Any chance you can bring it?
It is very frustrating the twin bbq is available in USA but not the case.

I'll do one better for you. You can buy it now: http://www.snowpeak.com/double-burner-case-gs-220b.html

We just got them in stock at the beg. of the month.

The Baja Burner Stove (GS-400) they are continuing to have manufacturing delays on. I have no ETA from them but from all the internal chatter it seems like May at the earliest I'll hopefully have an update for you all once I get back from Japan. Any other products you're looking for just let me know I'll try to get to the bottom of it.

I believe what he needs ( this is what I needed) is this:

I'm sorry you had to wait so long sojourn. The Double Barbecue is a very slow moving product here in the US. For that reason we've never really carried a lot of the accessories. It's actually been discontinued world wide but if that is the case you're looking for I'll check to see if we can get them in as a special order.
