These are awesome!
We’re moving soon and our hob broke. I did buy a dual hob for temporary use but it broke so I thought camping gear would be a much better solution so I bought this after having used them before. Comes with a nice protective carry case. Great amount of heat and it’s gas which I much prefer over electric.
Great little cooke
I bought a new cooker after our last had finally given up the ghost. I did a fair amount of research before settling on this. The stainless steel finish looks really nice, but the best thing is there is better wind protection around where the flame is. Great product.
Great bit of kit. I have a Trangia, but took this as a back up, on a recent camping trip, but ended up using this all the time as much easier to use and efficient/quicker to heat. Carrying case acts as a good stand and makes it easy to transport/carry. Friends had various other/cheaper branded ones, but this seem to be quicker at heating.
Efficient and tidy looking stove
Flame controllability is good and it boils water etc efficiently. Gas cannister easy to install. My original Camping Gaz bluet is still working 42 years later but less stable than this new one hence purchase. Gas for the new one is also cheaper and easier to procure.
I purchased two of these, instead of a single double-burner stove, as the double-burners tend to be overpriced, and too large as a single unit; not only for storage purposes, but also when trying to find a single large enough area to operate them.
These arrived well packed, free from defects and with good user & safety instructions. These stoves appear to have been manufactured with a good compromise between build quality, weight and with a well-finished appearance and good stability.
I was particularly impressed by the various safety elements incorporated into the stove itself; especially its 2no. overpressure lockout sensors with reset button: Also the pan supports, which have short vertical stubs preventing the placement of oversize pans above the gas chamber, which could lead to overheating of the gas cannister and valve chamber. Even the carry case has its own safety mechanism, preventing storage of the stove with a gas cannister left connected.
Installing a gas cannister was straightforward – just take care that the cannister is correctly aligned and orientated as shown on the additional enclosed safety notice in the chamber.
Ignition operated flawlessly. I was also pleased with the gas flow control knob, which operated smoothly, providing good flame control from minimum through to maximum.
After use it was easy switching off and removing the gas cannister; but you must not be in a hurry packing it away and moving on, as it does take quite a while for the burner and pan supports to cool down enough to stow away in the plastic case.
A tip for replacing the stove back into its carry case: The inside of the case with the 2no bars across is the top lid of the case, and should drop down onto the top of the stove, with the stove front facing the case handle. You will see the case safety device sitting just below the gas cannister lever, preventing the lever from being in the down closed position.
All-in-all these are good stoves: If keeping for emergency use, then remember to get a good stock of butane gas cannisters, as at maximum 2.2kW heat output, they are quoted as lasting 1hour 15mins, probably much less in cold weather, so judicious use will be required.
Bear in mind the need for adequate ventilation and a suitable audible carbon monoxide detector / alarm, if not being used outdoors.
