BottleTop Propane Stove with Adjustable Burner, Portable Camping/Backpacking Cooker with 7650 BTUs of Power for Camping, Tailgating, Grilling, & More

I’m really impressed with how well this camp stove performs - and its a very fair price for something worth the quality. The flame is strong and handles windy conditions without any issues, which is a huge plus when you’re cooking outdoors. Whether I’m at the campsite or cooking on a windy beach, I’ve had no trouble keeping the flame steady. It’s great to have a reliable stove that doesn’t fizzle out at the slightest breeze. The setup is incredibly simple and quick—just screw the propane bottle on, and you’re ready to go. No complicated steps or frustrating assembly. This stove is perfect for someone like me who likes to enjoy the outdoors without having to deal with complicated equipment. It’s also very lightweight and compact, so it’s easy to pack and carry on camping trips. As always, Coleman delivers with high-quality products at a fair price. I’ve always trusted their gear, and this stove has reinforced that trust. I’m confident this stove will last for many years, and I’ll definitely be using it on countless future camping adventures. If you’re looking for an affordable, reliable, and easy-to-use camp stove, this is definitely worth considering.

This is a really great, and very well made item. It is also very convenient and easty to use. You just screw the top on and plump the cylinder into the base. It uses the short, fat cylinders--not the longer kind you usually see plumbers using with torches. I had one of these things but I cannot locate the thing anywhere so when Hurricane Irma headed towards Florida I hurried and ordered another one. Thankfully, the hurricane did not hit the part of Florida I live in, the panhandle. My old stove got me and my late father through the hell that was Hurrican Ivan which did hit here in September of 2004. We did not have power or drinking water for the better part of the week and half the trees were knocked down. Our roof lost every other row of shingles, the storm windows blew out with loud bangs, and the siding of our house, which my neighbor, John, returned to me as a joke, blew three blocks down the street. Dad and I did have hot coffee and hot meals, though, and we did have plenty of water since I am a home winemaker and had filled my six six gallong fermenter spigot buckets up to the brim. I also have a two burner, Coleman propane stove around someplace but I cannot find that either. I used this stove once or twice before deciding the single burner was more than sufficient for coffee, tea, or dinner. We ate chilit mostly, Hormel with no beans with two cans of Bush's chili beans thrown in. With this stove, you do not have to go through the routine of putting soapy water on the joints to check for gas leaks. There is only one connection. If it does hiss when you screw it on it means the valve is open so you just rotate it. To light it, just open the valve a bit until it hisses and light it with a match or butane lighter. You turn it down or up or off with the valve. In case you are not familiar with propane torches, the gas coming out makes the connection near the tank icy cold to the point that frost starts to form. No kidding. Frost will form because it is the same principle that makes your refrigerator work. I said torch mind you. I did not let the burner run full blast. The flame might eventually hurt the cooking grid part though it seems very sturdy. I think they have improved this burner a bit since my old one and, if I ever find the old one, I will compare the two. A word about liquid fuel stoves. A Wal Mart add for a dual fuel stove said the Coleman dual fuel will burn over four times what's in a cylinder per gallon. This is a no brainer though since the cylinders only contain a bit over sixteen ounces of liquid and the gallon has 128 ounces. The also used to make endless jokes about liquid fuel gasoline stoves blowing up and sending people to heaven when I was little. \ The straight line gases in order from lighest to heaviest are: methane, ethane, propane, and butane. After this you get gasolines followed by mineral spirits, kerosenes, fuel oils, and paraffins like Vaseline and tars. Methane and ethane, often called natural gas, are not liquids at safe pressure. Propane is a liquid at about 15 atmospheres of pressure. The stuff in your little bottles is a liquid and not a gas. Butane is liquid at about the pressures you find in soda or beer bottles. This makes butane ideal for plastic lighters though it is more expensive normally than propane per ounce. Natural gass, of course, is cheap but an actually cylinder of gas, as opposed to liquid, would give you very little cooking time. They do use gas gas in city vehicles but the things do not have a great range per charge. So: if you live in hurricane country or like to camp, this and other Coleman products are very nice. I do give it five stars.

Just opened the box today, the stove unit is a lot bigger than I expected. Not to worried about this because my main purpose for this stove is multi day kayak trips. I'm impressed by the construction, the stove part is all metal besides the flow knob which is plastic. The base is also plastic which is very solid, overall the construction is great for what you pay for. Did a very quick operational test and loved it! The propane flow knob is extremely easy to operate, while you turn the knob it clicks to different adjustments for the flame (Low to High). This made it simple to lite the stove and give you a general idea of what low and high flame is. If your like me and have used most other camping/ back country stoves, sometimes they are so sensitive that you might shut your flame off if your trying to get a lower flame output. This isn't a huge deal with other stoves but with the Coleman it's really a neat feature to have the fine tuning. The wind today was about 10 mph gusting to 18 mph, didn't put it in direct wind but definitely had some wind while the stove was on. It preformed great, the flame never went out even on the lower settings. Like I said up top, bought this stove to use mainly for kayak camping and some car camping. I own a Coleman dual fuel stove which is an excellent camp stove but not when you want to take it on a multi day kayak trip. I personally would not take this on a solo backcountry hike, it's a little on the heavy side with the whole unit including the propane. For kayaking trips, I don't really care because my current Hobie Adventure Island can carry me plus 200lbs. Anyway, if your on a budget and want a great camp stove you can't go wrong here.

After having futz'd with a lot of different kinds of camping stoves, I finally stumbled upon this gem, and I think it's great. It's such a simple design, and that means no messing around with 2 different valves and pipes, cleaning any grating or the insides of a case. You just screw a propane canister on, open the valve and light a match over it, and you're good to start cooking. Some other things that impressed me - the mount is very high quality, durable metal. It's definitely wide enough to support most full size kitchen pots and pans, and of course the smaller camping varieties. I think it'll have no problems taking any kind of abuse. The maximum flame output is also very good, more than enough to boil water in my big pot, even with the ambient temperature around 35F. Cons... the plastic base is a bit small. It does the job, but I think it's still susceptible to being knocked over if say, someone were to bump into it. With a big pot or something on it, the whole thing is a little bit top-heavy, but it's just the nature of the design. Propane canisters just happen to be that tall. Overall, a great product if you're looking for something cheap, simple, portable, and robust.

I stumbled into buying this stove by default in a small town where I couldn't find any of the little isobutane cans that are not so widely available. The propane cylinders are everywhere in North America, big plus with this stove. This is actually my second Colman stove, the first one still worked perfectly but it was getting quite rusty as we used it boat camping along the sea coast over many years. It’s been a totally dependable powerhouse. Simmers nicely, we do fish and chip fry’s in camp, also use it in combination with a griddle on top of a camp grill for pancakes etc. A snap to set up or break down for storage in the kitchen bag. Has never leaked off gas while installed on a bottle. You'll want something smaller and lighter for backpacking, but if you don't have to carry it on your back this is a great stove. The two of us generally get like 5 to 6 fairly deluxe wilderness camp meals with one cylinder.

Second one I've had...first one lasted 5 years (and it was 1/2 the price). Boiled coffee water every morning.

Nice little Propane Stove that’s light in weight but strong enough to hold a 8 inch pot. It fires up in a seconds & is Perfect to grab and go in a hurry or emergency. Love that u can take it apart when done cooking your meal and put away for another day.

I really like this piece of equipment. It is very sturdy with the included base - even with a real size pot on top (like, spaghetti for 8 size). The controls are easy to use and adjust the burner, and it performs reliably even at temps down to single digits (lowest I've used it). Boils water quickly. You do have to have an exogenous lighter/match to get it going. My buddy has had his for over 10 years and still going strong. Will never be a backpacking piece, but just a good, solid addition to any car camping toolkit.

Happy to have this in my emergency kit

Esta buena, se ve bien hecha, pero por estar muy alta, el sartén u olla puede caerse. Usarla con cuidado, y sartenes q queden estables.

Le matériel est de qualité c'est pourquoi c'est cher.... obliger de payer car ce matériel ne se trouve pas en France ! Les bouteilles colman sont assez particulières donc pas le choix ! Cependant vu le prix je suis très déçu que ce rechaud avec le socle ne soit pas vendu avec La bouteille de gaz... La photo de vente montre le rechaud avec la bouteille de gaz c'est trompeur ! Demandez au vendeur de préciser que la bouteille de gaz n'est pas vendu avec !

A great peice of kit, cooks well

I bought this for a stripped down camping trip. It packs up small and is light. The unit is also well built and can easily support a full pot or kettle of water. It boiled water effectively. It also handles a 12" frying pan for some camp hash and eggs breakfast. The only issue I had was the burner control range is small. It doesn't have a low setting and if you try to put it on a low setting it can put out the flame. Other than that issue, I am very happy with it.
