Coleman Dual Fuel 2-Burner Stove

Great family camping stove. Reliable in all weather conditions. What's not to love about these great American-made stoves? My family used this stove for about 8 years in all kinds of weather and as a backup for power outages. It's shown no signs of failing despite our somewhat rough handling. It's a great theory to think you're going to cook on an open fire until you're hit with the inevitable snow or rain. Although stubborn at times, it always fires up regardless of the weather and cooks great… Full review

Jetboil Genesis Basecamp Stove

I purchased this stove in early 2020 thinking I would use it in summer of 2020. Sadly that didn't happen due to the virus messing up plans. But, this fall 2021 I finally was able to use while I was in the USA on vacation and it performed better than any other larger camp stove I have ever owned! The compact style, the two burners, and the simmer were all as advertised! Making this stove my only future stove in my camping arsenal! Anyone want a Coleman? Really! In a perfect world this stove would… Full review

Eureka! Ignite Camp Stove

A good all-around stove for car camping. It's easy to set up and has features that make it easy to use. We take it camping and it does well cooking for our family of four. Midway through a camping road trip our prior camp stove gave up, and we scoured high and low for a replacement, finding the last one available—the Eurekea Ignite. We're usually budget campers, and this was a higher quality and higher price point than our typical gear purchase, although it's certainly not the most expensive two-burner… Full review

Eureka! SPRK Camp Stove

Compact, lightweight, and reliable butane camp stove. The neat easy to carry case and easy setup makes cooking anywhere a pleasure! The hatch of my SUV worked great during a three-day in Death Valley NP. The small 8oz. butane containers required aren't expensive, and I used less than one all three days, and butane can be used indoors during inclement weather. Can't find any fault with this one! Until I purchased this stove, I cooked solely over a campfire. With the increasing fire danger and campfire… Full review

Ozark Trail Two Burner Propane Camp Stove

Unreliable We used this stove on 1-2 weekend camping trips. It might have been fired up five times during those trips. It's basically brand new, even though it's 3-4 years old. Last month I took it on a longer, five-day canoe trip, and that turned out to be a terrible mistake.     The first night on the river it worked fine. When we finished dinner,  I unscrewed the propane tank, closed the lid, stored the regulator in the back of the stove. The next morning it won't fire up at all—the regulator… Full review

Coleman Dual Fuel 2-Burner Stove

An old school stove that works well and is cheap on fuel. I have used this stove for years from summer fishing trips to camping at above 8,000 feet in Colorado in October with no issues. All I have used in mine for fuel is Coleman White gas and it is much cheaper to run than stoves that use propane gas bottles. Besides it's more green than all the 1lb bottles in the trash can from propane stoves.  Full review

Ozark Trail Two Burner Propane Camp Stove

If you break or lose any parts good luck finding a direct number to order a new one. I have googled search for hours. Found a manual with no part numbers. I have found 800 numbers that are not even to the manufacturer, instead it's Walmart. Full review

Ozark Trail 2 Burner Propane Stove

Had to call Customer Service and get replacement gas regulator within days of purchasing this stove. Then it worked for a year (stored and unused). We didn't go out camping throughout this time, and didn't use the stove. Tried it after a year, the stove works for a few minutes, then the flame sort of dies down. We adjust it to compensate, a few minutes later the flame starts sputtering, and then like a huge flame thrower it will put out the flame in a flower pattern. Tried cleaning up as much as… Full review

Ozark Trail 2 Burner Propane Stove

For the money, we haven't found a better option. It has held up well despite some probably unnecessary abuse. We like it better with an adapter and a 20-pound propane tank. This stove has worked out great for us. We did some shopping around, and it wasn’t the coolest looking, most luxurious, or probably even the highest quality materials. But the price was much better than the other two-burner options we looked at.   We’ve used it nearly daily, two or three meals a day, for a couple of months… Full review
