DESERT & FOX Ultralight Mini Camping Stove, 2600W Power Titanium Alloy Automatic Foldable Outdoor Cookware Tool for Picnic, Cookout, Camping, Hiking

This is so small, it will fit into your pocket. This clever little tool folds out with a support that would hold a small pan. It has a screw fitting, and is small enough to leave on a cylinder, for quick use if that suits your needs. This is a great peice of kit to have on your trip!

Love it very small but have to really test it out

I bought this stove on a whim and immediately function tested it when it arrived. Everything tested fine: screwing the stove onto the canister did not leak more than a normal amount of fuel, no fuel leakage was detected after the stove was tight, the regulator knob turned the gas on and off just fine, etc. I successfully boiled 2 cups of water with it inside on my kitchen table with no issues. For $10, I'm impressed. The stove weighs in at 50g according to my kitchen scale and the little black bag weighs in at 3g. For reference, the classic MSR pocket rocket weighs in at 86g. I don't own an MSR Pocket Rocket 2 (more compact model), but the official listed weight is 73g. I also don't own a BRS 3000T, but online sources suggest they weigh in between 25-28g. This thing is lightweight, but definitely not "stupid light" when compared to the BRS 3000T. This stove is $10. That's the lowest cost stove I've seen yet. I'm almost certain they will wait for people to buy it, review it, popularize it, and then they'll jack up the price a bit. The real advantage to me, besides the low weight and low cost, is the size. This thing would easily stow inside of my Toaks 550ml cup with a small 4oz fuel canister. I love having the compact package of my whole cooking kit all nested inside of the one cup. Chances are this isn't your first stove. You've got another that works just fine, but this one caught your eye. Do you absolutely NEED it? No... But it's $10 and it works. That's cheap enough to loan to a friend or to buy one for each pot.

Good product

Saw video on the butane heating up on the top of the can. Seems dangerous.

Scroll to the bottom for TL:DR summary Background I really like this little stove. I had been using an AOTU stove https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NJYV3NP/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and that stove has worked well for me, but I wanted something a little smaller. I was considering the BRS titanium stove, but I read a few reviews that said the arms that hold up the pot were getting too hot and then melting, and that's when I stumbled across this desert fox stove. I also own an original MSR pocket rocket stove, just so you know what my reference points are. I use these stoves with the Toaks 750mL titanium cook pot. Construction It seems to be well made. It's definitely more solid than the AOTU I was using. It fits my little pot perfectly, and is as stable as it can be for what it is. I have not tried it with a larger pot, so I can't say it would work well for that or not, but it's perfect for what I am doing. Cooking I have only been using this stove to boil water for freeze dried meals, but it seems like it wouldn't be too bad for preparing food directly in the pot. I mention this, because my other little AOTU stove is not great to cook with because it doesn't have a large adjustment range, and the heat concentrates in the center which burns the food and makes it stick to the bottom. The desert fox might do that too, but I haven't tested that yet. It does have a wider range of adjustment for the flame size though. When I turn it up all the way it is a little too much, because it heats up the handles of my pot, so I like to have it at about 80% so I don't burn my fingers, but that's just for the toaks pot I am using. I have only been using it to boil water up to this point, and it does that well. I am pleased with my purchase, and I will be using this stove as my EDC. Summary: Pros: Cheap, lightweight, compact, sturdy, wide adjustment range, well made Cons: May not be ideal for larger pots
