Product Information

If you spend more than 2-3 months out of the year camping — even if you are a single household — we’d recommend going for a two-burner camping stove. Two burners mean you always have the option of cooking with a pot andpan or, for instance, making one entrée alongside a vegetarian or kid-friendly option, and you avoid the musical chairs of attempting to have everything hot at the same time.

The author camping and cooking along the Arkansas River; (photo/Eric Phillips) Buyer’s Guide: How to Choose a Camping Stove What makes it so great is the multi-combustions mechanism created by no other than those small holes on its body. The amount of circulating air creates a strong fire that will allow you to cook food in a short amount of time. By far, the best stove for families is the one that will fit your family’s needs. That being said, we’d recommend a stove that’s sturdy, versatile (can cook multiple meals), and easy to clean.

Alternative-fuel Stoves

On some models the canister can be used in an inverted position to improve cold-weather performance. These stoves may have wider support arms for large-pot stability. A windscreen may be used with off-canister stoves. At 20,000 BTUs per burner, this stove has power to spare compared to standard ~10,000 BTU burners like the Eureka Ignite, and while we typically find this to be enough to cook more camp meals, we can’t complain about having more knob to turn if needed. The build is stout, and some may consider the 10-pound GSI Selkirk 540+ to be a better all-arounder. For a stove that’ll do most anything, however, it’s hard to ding the Everest. To test how well a stove could simmer, we tested the knobs and saw how low the flame could go while still remaining active. We also placed a hand above the flame and lowered it to see how close we could get before it got uncomfortable.

These can be simple and lightweight, such as a titanium base-and-windscreen/pot-support setup that folds flat. Different air temperatures and altitudes will boil water differently, so we tested all of these stoves at the same altitude. Don’t buy one of these stoves and expect it to boil water at these specific times; instead, use this as a rough guide as to which stove heats the most effectively and gets the hottest. Some stoves might have faster boiling times, and others might have better simmer capabilities. Old habits die hard, and folks who have been using canister stoves for years will find it challenging to change over to a stove like the Stöker. Even as an optimist and the person who presented this stove to his editor, I was looking for ways that it wouldn’t be as good or as easy to use as my Jetboil. But I couldn’t.

This is a smaller version of a well-known stove model. It works just as well as its big brother, but it’s much lighter and compact.

A windscreen should not be used with an on-canister stove because it can trap excessive heat and lead to fuel exploding.

The question now is, which smokeless fuel is best to use for a multi fuel stove? Anthracite – Clean burning & efficient Because the Tomshoo multi fuel stove is a collapsible design the size of the firebox is much larger than its storage size. It also has a secondary burn system which means low smoke and soot, and high heat to where you need it most. The simplest option on the list is also one of our favorites. As a tried and true model that meets the basic demands of car camping, it’s been a go-to choice for our staff over the years.Weight – Light weight is rated higher, obviously carry a heavy camping stove around is tiring after a while.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY - With no fuel canisters or alcohol needed, we’ll be leaving no chemical emissions behind. The camp stove use branches, leaves, woods as fuel which is easy to get anywhereAs a final word, we always recommend buying as good quality fuel as you can afford for your stove. While you might not think it’s worth it, it really does pay off in the long run. Not only is good quality fuel more cost effective and often better for the environment, it can help protect your stove, too. In cold weather, canisters can depressurize and produce a weak flame (unless the stove has a pressure regulator)
