The shapeshifting design of the unit allows it to function as a [barbecue, a fire pit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ninja-fireside360) and a drink chiller to help it stay as functional as possible when positioned in or around the property of a dwelling. The stylish design of the unit allows it to maintain a high-end aesthetic when not in use, which is achieved thanks to [copper and stainless steel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-stainlesssteel).
