Everdure is an Australian company and one of the largest suppliers of domestic gas radiant heaters in Australia.

Tiller Design has partnered with Everdure to create a number of new product lines that have combined fresh, modern design with Everdure’s established technical knowledge.

Tiller Design’s brief was to design and develop a user-friendly portable barbecue that can be easily serviced and is gentle on the environment both when being used and at the end of its life.

Concept Generation

The e2go is the result of extensive collaborative cooking and user research between Tiller Design, Everdure and professional chefs. In-depth market research identified problems and gaps in existing products as well as opportunities for genuine innovation.

This formed the basis for initial concept generation. As the initial concept sketch was developed into the final product, visual product design cues were balanced with functionality and safety requirements.

The e2go has features that make portable gourmet cooking easy and healthy. This includes closed hood roasting, a fat-draining griddle and flat plate. The lightweight, ergonomic interface ensures safe, easy one-person portability. Inbuilt storage provides room for utensils. Dishwasher safe removable serveries make the unit easy to clean and store.

Functionality Rendering

Result
The technical design was a collaborative achievement between Tiller Design and Everdure's R&D teams, resulting in a product that is efficient, serviceable and long-lasting. The burner was designed to burn efficiently within the overall design, producing the required heat when needed, and minimising gas consumption. The unique design of the roasting hood allows for maximum heat retention reducing gas consumption and cooking times.

The cast aluminium cooking plate provides heat evenly and quickly.

The product is able to be entirely de-constructed for serviceability and for end of lifecycle recycling.

High use parts are removable, dishwasher safe and replaceable if worn or damaged. 

The e2go is compliant with Australian Standard AS 4557-2004.
