Love this item. Surprised at how quickly a very hot fire was achieved and how quickly I was able to boil a pot of water. The only thing I would say was not as advertised was that it was not smoke free. In fact, there was A LOT of smoke. I was testing it in my fireplace and even then the whole room filled with smoke. I had to open a door and push it out with a fan. Other than that (which wouldn’t be an issue outside), everything was very simple to operate and worked well. I did not try the grill, so I don’t know about that.

Where to begin with this little stove? I think the thing I love most about it is the efficiency with very little fuel. Out and about, i'll just chop up and use the deadwood that's laying around. If prepped ahead of time, i'll take a few cups of pellets to burn. 2 cups of pellets last me about 40 minutes of burn time with the fan going. The multiple fan speeds allow you regulate the heat a little bit, which is nice. Don't always need it full speed. The USB light is a nice little add-on, and gets its use at night time. Overall, very happy with the stove after a few uses. Pros: - Multiple fan speeds - Auto fan start once fire heats up - Small and portable. Packs up really well - Wide base helps stabilize larger pots and pans on the top - Very little to no smoke once up to temperature - Visual indications for temperature, fan speed, and battery level - Surprisingly good water resistance - Extra outer skin on burn chamber stays much cooler than main chamber (still hot though, but not scorching) - was able to get 10W out from USB port which could be nice in a pinch Cons: - Need to take an extra little bit of time to center the pot on top. (really the only con I can really think of)

I bought this a couple of years ago and was just now able to actually test this due to living conditions/the lovely state of Massachusetts where people call the police over who’s leaves are in one another’s yard, but back to the review. One thing I really like about it is how it uses the heat from the fire to produce electricity and its ability to store that power to double as a battery bank. The battery bank uses a regular usb outlet so you can charge a wide range of devices with it between GPS, phones, radios, watches, literally anything that uses USB. Also, it shows how hot the fire is burning, how much electricity you have stored, and the fan speed. It does carry some weight behind it but not so much as to be a pain. Another thing that is nice, is that there is a fan that automatically turns on once there is enough heat. You can control the fan speed, just keep in mind that the faster the fan speed is, the hotter the fire will burn, which means the more fuel you will have to burn. However, with the fan on the coals burn down to ash and the heat shield helps keep the pit itself relatively warm to the touch temperature. Depending on your tolerance to heat you would be able to pick it up, dump the ash into a hole, and pack it up in a short amount of time. It packs up nice into a slime stuff sack so packing it is no trouble at all. One thing to note for the prepared is that there is some sound from the fan, it’s not too bad. All the videos that I watched made the sound of the fan seem far louder than it actually is. One thing that I would have like to see is the ability to add fuel either wood pellets or sticks/twigs without having to take your pot/pan/cup off the top and have to wait for the sticks/twigs to burn down (depending on length, I would ink go more than about 6 inches) but I’m not even sure this would be able to be done without a complete redesign. If you get the grill attachment this wont be an issue but I could see this being an issue for some like myself who try to not over pack and bring only what is needed. But other than the slight bit of noise from the fan and no feeding slot without the grill attachment. I find this to be a great piece of gear for those who want a piece of equipment that can produce electricity while also providing heat and means of cooking and boiling water.

Es una pasada lo bien que va, con pellets hace menos humos casi inapreciable. No he cocinado aún nada pero he hecho un experimento casero para hacer una mini estufa de pellet y calienta muy bien. Carga el móvil despacio pero carga y esto si algún día hay un apagón... Puedes generar electricidad para cargar el móvil o encender una luz. Y cocinar sin gas ni depender de nada. Si nos vamos de acampada también nos ayuda a no tener que llevar gas ya que nunca se acaba la leña que utiliza para funcionar..

I am blown away by this. I took it to use at a campsite mainly for the heat, light and ability to charge small appliances. It was very easy to light and keep warm by. Some people don’t like the fan noise but it doesn’t bother me. It came in useful to charge my phone, and I found it comforting to use when lone camping. It seems to be of a good sturdy construction and I like the design and the idea behind it being used in underdeveloped countries.

bellissimi materiali , è una volta messa in moto a pieno regime non fa fumo

Man muss das Holz in kleinen Stücken haben. Zeit braucht man auch. Geniale Idee.

After several uses, I’m impressed with how capable the BioLite CampStove is. The fan-assisted burn creates a stable, hot flame that cooks far more evenly than a typical twig stove. I consistently boiled water in under 5 minutes using nothing but dry twigs. The integrated power module isn’t meant to replace a power bank, but it does provide a steady trickle charge while cooking — ideal for keeping small devices topped up. Build quality is excellent, the controls are simple, and the unit feels durable enough for long-term field use. It’s not the lightest stove, and damp wood can reduce performance, but those are expected trade-offs. Overall, an extremely capable and thoughtfully engineered stove for campers who value function and reliability.
