Whether or not camping stoves are worth it is up to the individual. Some people prefer to cook over an open fire, while others find that camping stoves are more convenient. Camping stoves can be used to cook meals more quickly, and they can be used in bad weather when open fires are not an option.
Carbon monoxide is a gas that is produced when certain materials are burned. It is a colorless and odorless gas, which makes it very difficult to detect. When carbon monoxide is present in high levels, it can be poisonous. Carbon monoxide poisoning can occur when using a camping stove. If the stove is not properly ventilated, the gas can build up and cause serious health problems. Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning include headache, dizziness, nausea, and vomiting. If you experience any of these symptoms while using a camping stove, get to fresh air
A butane canister that holds 8 ounces of butane will last for approximately 21 minutes when used with a single burner.
Your backpacking stove should last for many years with proper care and maintenance. Treat your stove with respect and it will serve you well for a long time to come.

These are proliferating on the market in great numbers. This one appeals to me because it weighs less and packs up a little bit smaller than other options I looked at. very easy to use The manufacturer has been quite clear about the primary issue that can arise and how to avoid it. (Charging the fuel line too quickly can mess up the regulator; simply open the tank's valve slowly and there won't be any issues.) Pros and disadvantagesBenefits: -Works everywhere. See the image where I was able to stay warm by the fire and sat under an awning in a light rain. not just for fire pits.immediate on and off. That's just wonderful—and fire-safe! No need to worry about blowing embers either.No smoking! I adore this section. If you enjoy camping as much as I do, you might worry about your health as a result of inhaling all the smoke from traditional fires.Cons: The fire cannot be raging. Thus, the warmth it offers is constrained. Beyond the few people seated immediately nearby, there is more of an atmosphere.- A constant hiss of propane in place of the crackling fire sound. At first, I was shocked, but after all, this is just a device. I've had it. Additionally, I frequently play music, so it's kind of irrelevant. Additionally, I have numerous burn holes in my clothing as a result of years of the hot flying embers that go along with that pleasant crackle. So once more, I don't mind the propane sound. You'll initially just notice it frequently.- The pit is well-built, and the powder coating appears to be long-lasting. The lid and handle/strap cannot be claimed to be the same. Lid has a cheap feeling to it and makes me think of many different materials that have rusted throughout time. Let's see how this turns out. Fortunately, I reside in a high desert. The handle is pretty bad. It's a little uncomfortable to use, and the materials aren't the best. I'm worried that it won't fail until the whole of the unit does. This device needs to be easily transportable and storable in order for it to function as intended. it calls for a durable strap and tight-fitting cover. Because of this, I did not give five stars. You will run out of propane, which is the only reason. But consider it this way: based on my usage thus far, it is less expensive than purchasing wood in bundles from a store or a host at a campground. It is, albeit not by much.

This stove's valves are a major source of frustration, but there appears to be a simple remedy, and once it is applied, the stove is flawless—exactly what you would expect from Coleman. The knobs on the valves can easily be removed with a Phillips head screwdriver. After that, remove the brass nut holding it to the stove's front. Now back out the valve stem with the knob and take off the brass needle valve and stem with two O rings. Use a clean paper towel to completely wipe the valve lubricant or muck from the O rings. I attribute the issue to the lube. The rings appeared to be in fine shape. I followed that by dabbing on a very small amount of silicone-based plumber's grease, but you must be careful not to use petroleum jelly-based grease since it will damage the rubber. On Amason, I spent a few dollars on a tube. After that, I twisted some paper towel into a point and swabbed the inside of the valve; be careful not to leave any paper inside, though, as doing so could get you into trouble. Avoid using a Q tip as the fuzz can fall off in there. The silicone lubricant connection is as follows:https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B000DZFUPC/ref=od aui detailpages00?ie=UTF8

another revision (Dec 2018)An ice storm in November caused a 15-hour power outage. After all, I had originally purchased this small stove for this purpose.Before I departed for work, I heated some water in a camp coffee pot (without the inner parts) to make tea because I had to have my tea before I started my day. worked perfectly. It boiled vigorously and rapidly. When I got home, I had planned to prepare some pasta for dinner on it (I had checked in with my parents throughout the day, but the power was still out), but just before I arrived, the electricity came back on. Making pasta or rice, however, would not have been an issue, as I know from the rolling boil I experienced that morning.Still using the first gasoline can.————————————-(Updated February 2018)I've used this to cook a fish fry outside three times (easier clean up than using the stove inside, since boiling oil tends to splatter). I'm still on my first fuel can. Great results! In a 10 inch cast iron skillet, the oil gets hot enough. Fish is tasty! I'm really happy with this stove.———————————original assessmentSince both the microwave and stove/range run on electricity, I purchased this to have as a backup in case of a power outage. Although I don't anticipate using this much, I wanted to give it a try as soon as it arrived to ensure that it was functional and to confirm how it operates.This tiny object is incredible. It ignited quite quickly—on the first try. I used a 10-inch cast iron skillet because I wasn't sure if standard Teflon skillets could be used over a gas heat. It became very warm. I first fried some hot dogs, and then I fried some kielbasa. took only 20 minutes or such. You can definitely boil water for tea or coffee, fry eggs, cook sausage, and perhaps even boil water in a small pot for spaghetti or hot cereal. It features a dial so you may choose between a modest or high flame. Just be certain to go above the bare minimum. The flame died when I lowered myself just a touch below that. But it was no trouble to relight.There appeared to be other brands that essentially functioned the same manner during my search for this item. I chose the Coleman model because I am aware that they have been producing similar items for a long time and are a well-known brand. The only thing the other ones do that this one doesn't seem to do is that when you get it, you have to flip the black burner over because the other ones appear to ship with it turned down (maybe as a space saver). This one has already been turned over and is fixed in place. lovely and reliable The fact that you can't take it off to clean under it is the only issue I have with that. I can't see a way to let it go or get rid of it.really simple to insert and uses butane canisters. They have the same aerosol can appearance. I got four in a pack. per can, on average, $4. Purchase the large quantity if you intend to use this stove frequently (for camping, tailgating, picnics, etc.); the cost per can will be less. The compartment just behind the dial is where the canister is placed, lying on its side. It is concealed and protected from exposure by a hinged door. Easy to move, all-in-one unit.This camp stove proved to be the safest and most user-friendly of all the many types I looked into. (There was actually one that could use both gasoline and diesel as one of the fuels. When I first noticed that the tubing used to transport gasoline from the tank to the input really passed into the burner's flame, I thought it was fantastic that fuel was so easily accessible. This one doesn't require any tubing, a regulator, or anything like. It locks in place with a single snap. I detached the can because I didn't finish it, put the cover back on, and now I can use it again.includes a cute little carrying case for storage or transportation.

When I first received this, I was upset since I couldn't properly seal the lid over the butane can because the stove itself was bent (around the edge beside the can). The plastic carrying case has cracks as well. So that's unfortunate. But I had to use it straight away because I was experiencing a power outage. To close the lid, I was able to bend the metal back just enough, then I duct taped the cracked case. A few days later, when my power finally came back on, I made the decision not to bother returning it. Since I had the choice to return it, I'm not deducting any points, but I should point out that the metal is quite light and thin, making it not very durable. By no means would I call this a heavy duty item. On the plus side, though, it's lightweight, which makes it simple to transport and travel with.I also purchased a 4-pack of butane cans under the Gas One brand. Since I live in the woods and lose power frequently for a week or two at a time, I only intend to use this during power outages. In slightly under 4 1/2 minutes, I brought two mugs of water to a full boil in a metal coffee pot; I consider that quick. The butane cans fit into the stove with a snap. For some reason, the instructions made it sound difficult, but it's really not. Just insert the can with the arrow facing up. The flame is intense, and the ignition option immediately worked! I almost purchased an 8,000 BTU brand, but I chose this one instead because it was a few dollars less expensive. I don't believe I'm missing anything; this generates plenty of heat for cooking.Although hotels frequently utilize this for table-side cooking, properly speaking, this is intended for outside use. Just be careful to use it in a well-ventilated area to prevent carbon monoxide problems. Additionally, take care of the surface you place it on because the unit's bottom is completely open and gets hot when in use.

I enjoy camping, but I wouldn't describe myself as an avid camper. About two to three weekends a year, my family and I go tent camping. Even while I'm sure it will be useful, I didn't actually buy this stove with that in mind. I bought this stove just in case. Things like a government takeover in the event of a power outage, as well as the usual end-of-the-world conspiracies. LOL. I ended up purchasing two of these stoves/burners after reading a ton of reviews. After testing, I couldn't be more delighted. These stoves are simple to light, quick to heat, simple to clean, and capable of supporting large pans. They seem to be far safer than many of the stoves I've looked at, in my opinion. It is true that they lack a windblock, but if you have half a brain, you can easily set up anything if you're using it outside. Another feature of these is that, while not being suggested, they can provide heat in a pinch. These little ones radiate a pleasant warmth. Again, if you decide to do that, make sure you have a carbon monoxide detector, but they can still be used for that in a serious emergency.The YouTube video I'm sharing here was what actually convinced me to buy this burner. [...]Even if the YouTube video is a little corny and drawn out, the tester put the stove through its paces by measuring its temperature, carbon dioxide/monoxide levels, and boiling point. He essentially sold me this stove after reading all the reviews. Whoever this person is, Coleman must pay them. Anyway, simply purchase the stove. Get two if you're a prepper, both as a backup and as a second source of heat in an emergency.

This stove is excellent. In addition, I didn't even realize it had an ignition built in when I got it because the price was so low. The kettle and small cookware pans I use with it are more than steady, and it boiled 750 ml of water in about 6 minutes (although it was very windy when I tested, so this time may be higher than usual.) This tiny stove will be a common sight, (with fuel), on my longer excursions where I want to stop and make a hot supper but using a twig burning stove or starting a large bonfire is either not permitted or cumbersome. Given that this is so small and light, I suppose I'll get another as a backup.

I've used it for about a week and am so far quite pleased. Well-made but not excessively so. It has a really excellent range of burn from enormous to very little, which is spectacular for boiling rice. It can handle pans up to 10 inches in diameter. I also enjoy that I don't need a match to light it. Important Information: I've seen a stove on the market that resembles this one exactly but doesn't have the propane hose assembly. The choice between the two fuels, in my opinion, is crucial. As stated in the handbook, I have discovered that butane does not pressure properly when it is cold, particularly when the container is just halfway full or less. At those times, it will emit almost no flame. The disadvantage of burning butane when the bottle is cold is precisely that (not a stove issue). To solve this, I'm sure one could keep the bottles warm under their sleeping bag, although additional company sounds preferable. So it makes sense to keep a backup propane bottle on hand in colder weather, which can happen when camping. The ability of propane to operate at any temperature might mean the difference between a warm meal and a cold cup of coffee in the morning. However, pound for pound of gasoline, I find the Butane bottles to be less convenient and less bulky overall. Depending on where you purchase it, I believe propane might be less expensive. (Most Walmart locations have both.) Additionally, I bought a propane adaptor hose that works fantastically and is significantly less expensive to operate when connecting an appliance to standard 20# tanks. My little camper's stove is securely fastened to a shelf by a zip tie, and it works great. I contravene the laws about the minimum distance to things that can burn by cracking a window when I'm using it to prevent carbon monoxide buildup. However, I'm being cautious. I like the stove and both fuel sources overall.

Since our apartment is all electric, we were without power for more than 16 hours where we live in a senior complex. I purchased this for my carry-on bag. and food that has been frozen-dried. I was able to rehydrate the dry food, which was Delicious by the way, by heating up water. additional hot packs were purchased. We were able to stay inside and avoid venturing outside in the extremely severe snowy weather. We received 9 1/2 inches of snow where we reside in Georgia, which is a lot. I'm glad I have these precautions, and I advise everyone to do the same if their entire apartment is powered by electricity, whether they live in a senior community or a typical apartment. Might add that it is incredibly light and very easy to put together. So I put my to-go bag back inside.

Prior to going on a November camping trip in the mountains with snow on the ground, I purchased this to use with those Coleman 1lb propane bottles. The temperature was 60°F during the day and 28°F at night. Used this heater in a Coleman Montana 6 person tent with all flaps closed except for one that was cracked open on the main window (the ceiling is all mesh with a rain cover over it), and it worked perfectly for the two nights. It keeps the tent from becoming uncomfortable, but you do need decent blankets and sleeping bags. I got 8.5 hours out of the heater the first night I used it on low on a new tank. I experienced a 7.5-hour burn on medium the following night. I suppose 6.5 hours on high setting? It significantly kept the tent warmer than the outdoors. I didn't measure the temperature inside and outside, but if I had to guess, I'd say it was in the high 20s outdoors and in the low 50s inside the tent. The fact that we had two people and four dogs inside likely also affected the temperature.Although it has paddle feet as pictured, the heater is somewhat flimsy and might easily topple over. Us placed it directly in the center of a 2.5' x 4' all-wire dog cage so that neither the dogs nor we could reach it or knock it over; it worked flawlessly. On low, the tank lasted the entire night; on the other settings, you'll need to refill it once in the morning. That function worked effectively because it did shut off the gas when the flame went out owing to low propane levels in the tank. We observed that the sound is audible, similar to a gas range burner running nonstop in your kitchen. You do need to manually start it once with a match to get it rolling.Excellent heater all around. Its dependability will be determined over time, but in terms of performance, it much exceeded our expectations, especially considering the $40 we paid for it. I do suggest!
Propane is a great fuel for backpacking stoves because it is lightweight and easy to find. However, it does not last as long as some other fuels. A small canister of propane will last for about two hours of cooking time.
Propane and butane are both excellent choices for backpacking. They are both lightweight and compact, making them easy to carry. They are also both very efficient, so you will not have to worry about running out of fuel. Propane is a slightly better choice for backpacking because it is slightly cheaper and burns slightly hotter. However, butane is a perfectly acceptable choice for backpacking, and you should choose the fuel that best suits your needs.
Stove weight and fuel type are the two main considerations when deciding whether or not to bring a stove backpacking. If you are traveling in an area where there are established campsites with fire pits, you may not need to bring a stove at all. If you are planning to cook your meals on the trail, a stove will be a necessary piece of gear. There are many different types and brands of backpacking stoves on the market. The two most popular fuel types are liquid fuel and canister fuel. Liquid fuel stoves are typically heavier than canister fuel stoves
A liquid fuel stove is a stove that uses liquid fuel to produce heat. The most common type of liquid fuel stove is a propane stove. There are several disadvantages of using a liquid fuel stove. First, they can be expensive to operate. Second, they can be difficult to light. Third, they can be smoky. Fourth, they can produce an unpleasant smell. Finally, they can be dangerous if not used properly.
There are two main types of backpacking stoves: canister stoves and liquid-fuel stoves. Canister stoves are small, lightweight, and easy to use. They burn a fuel canister that screw onto the stove, and have a built-in igniter. Liquid-fuel stoves are larger and heavier, but they can burn a variety of fuels, including white gas, kerosene, and unleaded gasoline. They have a separate fuel bottle, and require a match or lighter to ignite.
There are many different types of family camping stoves on the market, but which one is the best? It really depends on your family's needs and preferences. If you need a stove that can accommodate a large group of people, then a propane stove might be the best option. If you're looking for a stove that is easy to set up and take down, then a compact camp stove might be a better choice. Ultimately, the best family camping stove is the one that meets your specific needs.
