Coghlan's Emergency Stove - Lightweight, Portable Camping Stove for Backpacking, Survival, and Outdoor Cooking - Foldable Design with 24 Fuel Tablets Included (Compact for Travel and Storage)

I've likely used 10 of these over the years since 1999, this portable camping stove is the most reliable and durable to survive several years of usage until it wears out. Depending upon camping conditions a single tablet burn time may last 2-4 hrs varying on camping land height to sea level. Most versatility as it fits most camping solo cooking gear without needing to carry extra gear. Overall a great value for the money, if you cook often on these it'll likely last 1-2yrs before wear and tear/spilt water rusts it out. Included fuel tablets should last a 2-3 day camping trip.

No thrills and whistles. A basic item that should be in any emergency kit. Comes with fire tablets but a small fire with wood chips also did the job. Super compact and lightweight. No more needs to be said.

It's exactly as described. Great little stove. Pros: *Lightweight *folds down to fit in a small space *Easy to use *Can use smokeless fuel (included) or wood Cons: * Not a lot of clearance from bottom of stove to the ground. I recommend putting the stove on a brick or cement surface. * smokeless fuel melts down and falls through the bottom of the stove. Again, recommend using brick or cement under the stove to prevent accidentally starting an unwanted fire *the top folds open to a variety of angles to fit small pots and pans but isn't super sturdy. I purchased a sturdy grate to stand independently over the stove

great compact survival stove, fuel tablets come in plain plastic bags though so youll need to put them in your own resealable baggies

What I love about this stove is the fact that it is so cheap and it can be used with various "fuels." Do note that the fuel tabs included do have a little bit of an odor and will leave some soot on the underside of what you cook in. That said, I was able to get 1.5 cups of water to a boil in under 5 minutes using my MSR aluminum cooking pot with 3 fuel tabs, and there was fuel left over. I was able to heat up water using their "fire sticks", although there was some soot left behind on the underside of my pot from doing that. That's the fuel being used in the photo. For $10, this is worth keeping in your car or a closet in the event of an emergency if you need to boil water or heat food or want a cheap entry-level stove for getting into camping.

Excellent for carrying in you car for emergencies very compact and easy to light. It takes three fuel tablets to boil a small pan of water

We tried to use it as directed to heat water in a kettle...pot did not sit even, was shaky.. not good for sturdiness/safety.. No easy way to keep adding fuel source, as flame does not last long with white fuel source offered with item..just have to keep lifting pot off of the "stove".. We attempted to add little wood sticks to make fire warmer/higher/last longer..this did work better..but no catch for ashes, so we made sure to put foil under it first, to have a safe burning area..but still had to keep lifting pot off to add fuel source PROS White fuel bits are great fire starters Works ok for little campfire mode Good for a pinch if you have nothing else CONS Not very durable or steady with a pan/pot on it Cant use other fuel sources with it, like gel fuel or bio fuel, flame goes out,so left using sources that leave a mess below the cooker, with no "catcher" for debris (so we used aluminum foil to catch burn off No easy access, while cooking ,to add more fuel source to keep fire going Not bad-but not great Doable if you have nothing else, or want to cook marshmallows or hot dogs, or anything on a stick, but not my first go-to choice for a hiking/camping stove.

One should know that the included burner tabs are limited in their use I boiled about a cup of water using three of them it did bring it to a rowing boil before they ended it is best to use additional pot fans to enhance the performance however what I did find is that if one uses an altoids-based alcohol stove inside the stove itself it will boil water and also act as a windscreen fantastic application. If one is looking for means to create set of alcohol stove The YouTube channel waypoint survival has excellent videos and examples of how to make an alcohol stove. Bruce may have a different opinion I think for $6 this was an absolute steal

Muy pequeño para el costo,no es acero inoxidable, una ligera mojada y amaneció color rojo

I purchased this to be able to heat water in an emergency situation. It's very compact, so it doesn't take up a lot of space in an emergency kit. The solid fuel is also compact and easy to store. I feel more comfortable with that in my apartment than I would propane or other fuels. Hurricane Fiona gave me the opportunity to test it. The set up was easy. I used a lightweight pot with a tight fitting lid and ensured it was sheltered from wind (used it outdoors on my balcony). I had boiling water in 8 minutes with one fuel pod. Good for a cup of coffee or some instant noodles. The flame can be a bit high to start, but it wasn't problematic (just keep flammable objects away from the stove). It did blacken the bottom of my pot, but that washed off no problem. When the pod was extinguished, it left no residue. I was impressed with its performance. To be clear, this won't be the solution for everyone and you have to consider how you intend to use it and how big your family is to know whether it's the right option for you. For me, it was great. Very happy with this purchase.

da chiuso è compattissimo, si apre con semplicità, ed al suo interno custodisce 24 pastiglie di combustibile solido, e rimane ancora un poco di spazio per inserire qualche altra esca per il fuoco, io ci ho messo del cotone. Da aperto ha due posizioni di bloccaggio, quella intermedia non è solidissima, ma bisogna tenere conto che si rivolge a piccoli utensili da cottura, caffettiere, tazze e pentolini piccoli, poco pesanti quindi, che sorregge senza infamia e senza lode. Alla massima apertura ne beneficia la solidità e le pentole più larghe (e pesanti) trovano il loro posto. Tenete presente che si tratta di un fornello di emergenza, per una o due persone, non è indicato per cucinare per una comitiva. Il metallo di cui è fabbricato non è molto spesso, a beneficio del peso, e della possibilità di raffreddarsi rapidamente, ma è comunque commisurato in funzione dello scopo per cui è stato concepito

Serves the purpose, which is use as light weight stove for camping or emergencies. Light for BOB, would say it's OK.

Ho anche quello della Esbit più robusto con la giuntura dura ed efficace il metallo di qualità superiore.Questo,lo ho preso per il fatto che la larghezza consente anche di usarlo col combustibile sempre Coghlans, Camp heat in lattine .Metallo cagionevole e facile a scolorirsi e scopparsi col calore cerniera debole per i pentolini piccoli, meglio usarlo tutto aperto per pentole oltre 16 cm di diametro non all'altezza
