Coghlan's Portable Folding Camp Stove – Compact, Lightweight Steel Cooking Stove for Camping, Backpacking, Hiking, or Emergency Use – Uses Canned Heat or Fuel Tablets, Black

This thing falls flat and is very stable when assembled – it's design fits canned heat and mini alcohol stoves perfectly. All four sides provide and effective windscreen while allowing enough air to enter to promote a very hot flame. I have not used it for actual camping, but have tested it at home and it is a very nice unit– it doesn't weigh a lot and folds flat for easy storage in a backpack or a to go bag – the latter is my intended purpose since I don't camp anymore. I bought two of the units for two bug out bags – because, we could get separated and we'll both need to have something to co

I like this, sometimes scared to use my gas stove, and this with the gel cans burn long and cook just fine and heats my water.

Id give it 4 stars because of the price and sturdiness of the product. It wasnt hard to assemble but it took some bending of the tabs to get the tray to snug in. Does not keep the wind from blowing the heat away from your pot/pan though. I had a small breeze and it took forever to cook rice. Sterno isnt really the best for quick cooking anyway. Stove folds almost flat. Would i buy another? No. Id rather use a small isobutane stove. But for sterno lovers, its a good purchase.

will work to cook on for power outage

Folds flat, stores easily. When unfolded (no instructions but I found it easy to figure out) it was stable and held a small pot of water well. Tried it with Sterno canned heat and my Esbit alcohol stove - both worked very well.

I bought this for my disaster preparedness kit. l love that it is sturdy and quite versatile. In a pinch, you could use things other than sterno to cook with this. I used my Trangia alcohol stove as a proof of concept. One could use sticks in it, if one needed.This is the really important part. Coffee. You see, I cannot exist without coffee. Well, actually that is not true. --> I <-- can exist without coffee, but anyone who has to be around me does not want to live through that. So, I must have coffee. In a power outage, when my house is all electric, this is a problem. I have a Coleman propan

This is a simple contraption and it works well enough. In a pinch, without other options, it will heat water, and probably cook what you need. Make sure you have time, though. The product itself seems sturdy enough and built well enough. I gave it three stars for what it does, or doesn't do. I used a small pot with a quart of water in it. I used a new fuel container. I gave up on boiling water after 45 minutes. This is okay, but really only a decent back-up to your back-up for cooking. I suppose it could be a primary device if you're packing small, but there are better and smaller products ava

I give it five even though I have t used it yet. It looks flimsy but it's not at all. It's heavy duty in my opinion. I will re-review when I use it. It's perfect it doesn't take a lot of space. This is part of my hurricane kit.
