My order for a solar BBQ from Greenplate arrived within days of placing the order. As promised, the solar BBQ is highly energy efficient, and has given me absolutely no complaints so far. I would strongly recommend Greenplate to everyone I know.

I wanted to change my electric barbeque because it was becoming more expensive to use it with every passing day. This is when I came across Greenplate and ordered their electric BBQ Australia. As promised, the BBQ uses significantly lower amounts of energy, making it ideal for my purposes.
