Zorestar Outdoor Camping Wood Stove - Portable Wood Burning Stove for Outdoors - Wood Heater Stove for Camp - Tent Stoves for Wooden Pellet - Outside Small Wood Stoves for Cooking Camping

Not as hard to put together as I thought it would be but it’s still heavier then I expected but as sturdy as it is it probably needs to be. As long as I’m not backpacking it I love it.

Ok so compared to the box it comes in, the stove is comically small. Get the idea of this being a camping stove out of your head. It may be meant more as a novelty if you have a tiny tent. Even then, it's heavy enough that if you did have a tiny tent, this would be the largest thing you'd have to carry by a long shot. The metal is too thick to call it portable and too thin to call it a "stove". You cannot cook on it unless the fire is ripping hot because it does not retain heat at all, 99% of the heat goes out the flue and becomes more of a rocket stove but out the pipe not where it would be useful. If this was 50 bucks it would be worth it, but not at 99.

Really nice size and optimal heat output. This works really well and makes camping a lot easier.

The media could not be loaded.  I was a little disappointed when I discovered how small this camping stove really is. It is lightweight and portable which is a plus, but I had to cut wood into small pieces in order to fit it into the stove. Thankfully I had some silicone gloves handy because the latch to secure the door turns hot while in use. I had to use the gloves when it was time to add more wood to the stove otherwise, I would have burned my hand.My personal experience using this camping stove was just okay. I could feel heat radiating from the stove when I was within a couple feet of the unit, so if several people are sitting around the camping stove, someone is bound to get cold if using on a cool fall night. The pot I typically use when camping is larger than the top surface of the stove. The edges of the pot hung over the side of the top of the stove. I was also a little disappointed in how long it took to cook on the stove because of the small interior and limited amount of room to build a big enough fire. Perhaps others use something other than wood when building a fire.Based on my experience, I would probably recommend this camping stove only to someone who is looking for a very small, compact stove and only using for light use. It was not big enough for me and my family.

Easy to put together. Very sturdy. Got water boiling easily. Great camp stove!

Love the design, build, portability, but I would like a way to retain the top plate when the unit is collapsed for transport. Speaking of which there is a learning curve for getting everything to fit back inside the unit. But it works VERY well.

IMPORTANT: From what I gather, reading the literature on this stove, I'm not sure this is a tent stove. There are no directions stating it is. So to be on the safe side, I wouldn't use this particular stove in a hot tent. The size of this stove is approximately 8.75"x8"x9". It's made from a heavy grade steel, but not like a regular woodstove. It's somewhat thinner because this stove is portable! You can fit all of the stovepipe inside the stove, fold up the sides, and away you go! (After the stove cools, of course). There are two slots for your hands to fit that allow you to carry it as it's not too heavy. Although not to heavy, I wouldn't recommend it for backpacking. There are flame-shaped air holes all around the bottom to help feed the flame air. We've been experiencing a drought, of late. So this stove could be the answer to still having a "fire" while you're camping with a small group. There is little assembly and you can't beat the price, considering the stove comes complete with all you need to fire up your new woodstove.
