LixadaCamping Wood Stove Folding Lightweight Stainless Steel Wood Burning Stove Portable Backpacking Alcohol Stove for Outdoor Camping Hiking Picnic BBQ Picnic Hunting

I selected this stove to use with my Trangia alcohol burner stove. It's just about a perfect fit. Then, I did some testing and got a surprise!First impression: I’m rating this stove at about 4.5 for being what it says it is. The negatives weren’t enough to gripe about so I’m rounding up to a 5 star. There are better stoves on the market but they easily cost 3 times the price so I give this little unit high marks for value.The sheet metal edges are not smooth so be sure to keep it in the bag that comes with the stove. Otherwise, you could end up with holes in some equipment. The stove folds together pretty good but requires a little bit of tweaking to get the tabs lined up and fastened. It's not difficult but neither is it instant. After all the burn tests, the stove certainly looks used but as far as I can tell, it did not warp or deform in the heat.My Tests:First of all: I respect anyone who takes the time to be scientific. It was a challenge just to control the few variables I had for this test.Test criteria: Elevation: 675 ft above sea level. Each boil was 342g of water which is about 12 fluid oz. The ambient temp was about 90f and the resting water temp was the same. Occasional breezes disturbed the flames on every test but it was not windy. Cold weather will have a major impact on these times. I might do an update in the wintertime when we get down to a frigid 40f or so. :-)For a pot, I used an Olicamp "Space Saver Mug" which will hold up to 24 fl oz.. NOTE: This mug sits perfectly on top of the stove. I also have a Stanley "Adventure Camp Cook Set." The Stanley pot/cup will NOT safely sit on the stove because the bottom is too narrow and its rounded edges leave it unstable. I used the Stanley lid on top of the Olicamp mug -- fits perfectly. (Note: I fashioned a rack from a bit of coat hanger wire and it holds the Stanley pot very nicely so if you have one of those you can make this stove work with a little tweaking)Hexamine Test: I used a 14g, no name Hexamine tablet in the bowl which comes with the stove. A single tablet produced a boil in about 6 minutes. It almost produced a second boil on the same tablet.Trangia Alcohol test 1: Using isopropyl 91%. Approximately 20g of fuel was burned to produce a boil in about 51/2 minutes.Trangia Alcohol test 2: I’ve seen recommendations for the burner flame to be about 1.5 inches away from the pot bottom. I made a modification to get very near to that position. The cook time extended to 6:50 so I’m sticking with the stove placement as designed.Wood burner test: Using dry twigs ranging from pencil diameter to pinky finger diameter and a foot or more in length. It is necessary to constantly monitor the flame since tiny wood burns fast. The water boiled about 6 minutes after I achieved a steady flame.SURPRISE Test: According to the mfr, the bowl is designed for burning the alcohol. I’ve been using alcohol stoves for a while -- have even built some of the beer can stoves. I assumed that a plain bowl of alcohol would be inefficient. Well, surprise surprise! I burned about 20g of alcohol in the bowl producing a boil in less than 5 minutes! That was the quickest boil of all the tests.Conclusions:* I’m satisfied with the burn performance of the hexamine as well as 91% isopropyl alcohol or random twigs. I will probably carry fuel tabs as well as alcohol since both fuels also multi-task for other applications. (hex for fire starting, alcohol for first aid).* Until I do further testing, I will carry two tabs or 60g of alcohol for each planned burn.* I will simply use the bowl that comes with the stove for both hex and alcohol. That’s a weight savings of 120g by not carrying the Trangia.* I pour unburned alcohol back into the flask.* Hexamine flame will extinguish with a hearty puff of air so it can be reused for cooking or fire starting later.* I’m carrying approximately 12” x 18” of aluminum foil in the stove pouch so that I can fashion a wind break with tent stakes or twigs. Wind is the enemy!Not bad for a stove that can literally fit in your pocket!

i finally got a chance to try this thing out and was very pleased.first the cons:1) metal is thin2) bowl needs to be bent to fit3) gsi folding cup fits great, stanley adventure pot does not. you could easily rig some steel wire supports to accept smaller pots though.now for the good stuff: 1) because the metal is thin and the stove is very small, its light and easy to carry. it folds up pretty well, has a nice little bag (keeps soot off your stuff). i keep this in my pack all the time. chances are i wont need it, but for spontaneous hikes and day trips, its handy to have.2) you can burn readily available fuel in it. a handful of twigs and bark ranging from matchstick to pencil thick added at a slow pace boiled up an 18 oz cup of coffee pretty easily. you could probably use newspapers and cardboard as well, just would make more mess.3) pretty simple to set up and burns like a beast. just make sure to CAREFULLY fold it back up and do so correctly. if you fold it wrong, you can damage the hinge points. i tried this out on a recent camping trip. we had a firepit too, but i wanted to give it a run for its money. you need to put it on something safe, like a patch of dirt, a big rock, even inside a pan if you have to, as the bottom grate allows hot coals to fall through. in other words, dont use it on a table cloth, plastic camp chair, or other flammable stuff. just use common sense. you can use long sticks and simply feed them into the fire as it burns, so no need trim everything short. i fired it up with some dry cedar tips and very thin kindling (matchstick thick) and once it gets fired up, even the occasional cigar thick stick would be okay to add. its going to get soot on your cook pot so if you like it shiny, be warned. i like the colour of fired pots so its fine with me. now, as i said the little bowl needs to be bent to use it. theres a rim around the top that sticks out slightly from the bowl. on one side of that you bend it straight down to create a flat side. you dont bend the bowl part itself, just the rim. i used a pair of pliers, it left some marks but i dont mind. that flat side butts against the back of the stove, and theres cutouts on the left and right side to hold the rim of the bowl. one reviewer suggested throwing the bowl away which is certainly an option, but if you bent the rim you can use it with liquid fuel like everclear, denatured alcohol, and such which can be useful if you dont have other stuff to burn, or need to use it on a countertop without coals falling on it.anyways, i took off a star due to thin metal and the bowl not fitting, but the main stove is pretty awesome and i am glad to have it in my kit. for the price, its a great emergency back up to keep in a kitchen drawer too.3)

Is it going to stand up to Everest? Don't be ridiculous - if you are going to go on the climb of a lifetime, you might want to spend just a little more on your stove. Is it going to hold a five pound cast iron skillet full of salmon? Maybe, if you are careful. On the other hand, will it boil soup over an alcohol burner? Yep. Boil water in my Stanley Coffee Press? Yep. Boil water over sticks and pine cones to make my Mountain House meals? Yep. Ward off a charging moose? Call Bear Grylls for that one. What's it weigh - about 6 ounces with the burner dish included. Throw in a half dozen trioxane tabs and a folding windscreen and a bag to carry it all in, and you're still under 12 ounces. Is it worth it? Well, put it this way, I have the ability to cook without starting a fire, completely carry-in/carry-out, six or more hot meals and beverages, in a package smaller than a Tom Clancy paperback - I'd say that's worth it to me.

First of all, i was sent the wrong item at first, which i don't necessarily blame on the seller. That could have been done in the warehouse. I did receive the replacement quickly though.If you're wanting a cheap little wood burning backpacking stove, this is a pretty decent one. It goes together well with the grate at the bottom, but the alcohol bowl does not fit the stove in either of the slots designed for it to fit in. You would either have to keep one side open, or force it which would cause damage to the stove in the long run.Its small, lightweight, and sturdy though, and perhaps the bowl could be used in another way although somewhere down the line there had to have been a manufacturing error, because it simply doesn't fit.

Es miniatura más chico que mi mano

The media could not be loaded.  Wasn't sure if I was going to be able to use a camping stove this small but it blew my mind and exceeded my expectations. It's so small it fits anywhere. It's light. Easy to put together.Took the little camping stove with me to the beach and it only took me like 20 seconds to put it together (comes with 3 metal pieces to put together). I then looked for thin dry branches and cut them in 10in pieces and put them inside the camping stove.I had the fire going within 2 minutes! totally effortless.While you won't be able to cook a meal in there, it's perfect for something small or basic like boiling water for a cup of tea or coffee or soup, or to cook sausages or smores.Can't wait to test it out on my next camping trip this upcoming weekend.

Functionality no problem, however very very small. Read the sizes 😂

Bin überrascht wie gut der kleine Kocher funktioniert!Er ist perfekt für die ESBIT Brennstofftabletten geeignet und imhO besser als der original BW Esbit-Kocher!Vorteile:- hat einen viel besseren Windschutz- trägt auch einen kleineren Kaffeepott ohne zu kippeln- lässt sich zur Not mit Holz betreiben- er ist aus Edelstahl und rostet nicht- zusammengeklappt hat er fast keinen PlatzbedarfDer Kocher besteht zwar aus dünnem aber stabilen Edelstahlblech. Die Segmente sind durch Scharniere miteinander verbunden und so ist der Aufbau ein Kinderspiel. Er steht sehr stabil, da klappert gar nichts. Legt man die Schale auf den Boden und stellt den Kocher darüber, lässt er sich mit Holz betreiben und die Schale wird dann zum Ascheblech.Was kann er leisten?Als Beispiel: Befeuert mit 2-3 kleinen ESBIT-Tabletten kocht ein Kaffepott (ca, 250ml) sprudeln auf.Hinweis zum Aufbau: Am besten lässt sich die Schale einsetzen indem man sie zum Schluss von oben in den aufgebauten Ofen legt und dann von unten nach oben in die Aussparungen drückt.Klare Empfehlungfür alle Trekker, Bushkrafter, Surviver, Backpacker usw.Nachtrag:Hatte vergessen zu erwähnen dass statt der Schale auch ein Spiritusbrenner (Typ Trangia) einwandfrei nutzbar ist.

Stufetta stupenda, super pratica e super tascabile! Ottima soluzione, non manca mai durante le escursioni... ci si può preparare davvero di tutto (usando pentolini e moke delle giuste dimensioni). Utilizzata sempre con rametti, non ha mai dato problemi di alcun tipo... consiglio di appoggiarla su un foglio di alluminio o su una scatoletta in metallo per non far disperdere la cenere prodotta... super consigliata! La stufetta è riponibile in una comoda busta di stoffa.
