REDCAMP Folding Camping Oven with 2-Tier Grill for Propane Baking

This cooker is brilliant. We've cooked just about everything on it including pizza, cup cakes, crumbles, pies, quiches... anything is possible. Very temperature controllable on a gas stove, but definitely recommend binning the thermometer that comes with it (I blocked the hole left after removing it with a stainless nut and bolt) and buying a new oven thermometer that goes in with what you're cooking. Packs down really small and quickly for transportation. Build quality is amazing, quailty stainless steel throughout. Probably the best camping gadget I've ever bought and at an amazing price for what you get.

Sods law, I went out to try this out & the heavens opened ! It's a good of piece of kit. No instructions for assembly so had to watch on YouTube - but place bottom down & open upright inside base then clip sides. Quick & easy once you know. It's quite sturdy once assembled & a youtuber I watched suggested putting a pizza stone in the base (I foolishly bought a 12" stone at the same time, not realising I'd need a 10" stone. . .🙄 ) it was too wet out to sit & tend my fire, so I probs didn't achieve the heat I required, but managed to make some dog biscuits. I think this has a lot of potential & I'm looking forward to getting to grips with it.

Use on portable gas hob..it works well..but a bit heavy on gas use

Love this oven. I do a lot of cooking on my YouTube channel and have used this oven a few times. It keeps the temp very well and packs down to a great size. Really handy that you have 3 racks. It's so easy to put together and seems really sturdy. Looks great aswell.

Nice oven, only criticism is that the sides don't fix to the bottom, they just sit on it. Otherwise I am really happy with it.

Great quality stainless steel camping oven . Bought for a car camping trip and it's a game changer . Fits on my camping gas hob perfect. I made pizza , reheated pies and part baked breakfast rolls in it. Worth every penny , also comes with a spare door glass panel . Quite heavy around 5kg but no problem in the car.

Nice oven, value for money

First of all, this works well enough. The temperature whilst on my gas stove shoots up to 200C, but as soon as I put food in there it drops to around 150, probably as the thermometer is at the top and the food/trays stops the heat rising to the top. The bottom gets far hotter, so you have to switch food from top to bottom a couple times and it takes a little longer than usual to cook. It's easy enough to setup, but you can see visible gaps in the hinges on the side panels, slide in covers for those would be a great alteration. It feels solidly built and has some decent weight and still looks good after several uses. The whole thing gets very hot, so don't forget to take your oven gloves as the hasp itself will scorch you (this could do with wood or something to insulate) - and keep kids well away as there is no visible indication as to how hot those sides are. Size wise it is big enough for pizza express pizzas, but the top shelf is very high with a lot of wasted space to the bottom shelf. Which brings me to the final point, there are only 2 shelves with no option to add a 3rd in between. Don't do what I did and think "bigger must be better". The smaller oven has 3 shelves, the shelves are mesh squares too which means you can throw chips on without oven trays. The larger one I bought the shelves are rails, you will need trays. Plus the larger one has a top handle, which stops it collapsing flat so has to be removed, and it only has normal nuts on it with spring washers which are a pain if you forget a spanner. Oh, and I think the height dimension being larger is likely only due to the handle, so not the actual box for cooking. All in, I'm happy enough with it, but I'm annoyed I didn't look carefully enough at the product differences, I actually paid more for a product that seems less useful. Pay less, get the smaller one, get more. If only I could have another shelf, and if only they were mesh instead of rails! It's too late for me, save yourself! We've cooked pizza, nuggets and chips so far. It's a little gas hungry - but makes feeding kids a lot easier on a camp site. We use it on a cheap, single hob gas stove.

Facile d'utilisation et à transporter. 1 des deux vitres est arriver briser mais fonctionne quand même

Veramente un bel prodotto esteticamente. L'ho montato ma non ho ancora avuto modo di provarlo perchè ovviamente ora iniziano 28 settimane di piogga haha. E' composto da 6 pezzi. La base, il corpo del forno circa 30x30, il coperchio specchiato (molto bello) e le 2 grigliette interne posizionabili su 3 diverse altezze. (c'è un ulteriore componente che è il termometro di serie compreso che misura dai 50 ai 300 C o volendo F). Se quando lo montate (dato non troverete istruzioni all'uso) la base non combacia per il corpo quadrato del forno semplicemente ruotatelo di 90 gradi e si incastrerà automaticamente alla perfezione. E' vero che è un quadrato ma la base ha delle lavorazioni fatte in modo che solo in 2 direzioni delle 4 disponibili possano incastrarsi. Una volta aperto il forno ci sono 2 levette (una per parete) per chiudere il corpo stesso così da renderlo stabile. Per alzarlo o spostarlo non prendetelo dal coperchio ma dalle maniglie laterali. Buona infornata!!

This oven is really well made. The fit and finish are superb, in my opinion. I've used a camping oven from a major brand for years and one of my chief complaints about it was the lightweight gauge of steel used, it was always getting bent or misaligned in normal use and was truly a pain in the neck to get it buttoned up and packed. This stove is made of a thicker grade of stainless steel and I think it will be a lot tougher and more durable. It comes with a carrying case which is a nice touch. It has 3 racks and a removable top which increases its versatility. It comes with a spare front glass piece which I think is also a nice touch. I highly recommend that you add two items to this stove to improve its performance. A cover and also get a pizza stone or unglazed tiles. The cover alone will greatly improve the performance by reducing the amount of time it takes to get the oven to temperature and how much fuel is consumed maintaining cooking temperature. I can't emphasize enough how much this improves the performance. The tiles and/or pizza stone are used to place your baked goods on. This virtually eliminates rolls burning on the bottom and also helps to retain heat and maintain an even temperature. The photos show the cover which I purchased here (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CRYV351X?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title). I used some heavy duty copper wire I had laying around to make a couple of “pincers” to keep the cover tightly wrapped around the oven to reduce air leakage. (I will probably make something a bit more elegant in the future.) I opted to use two inexpensive unglazed ceramic 4” x 8” tiles instead of a more expensive pizza stone. So, some testing: I was using a vintage Coleman gas stove and placed the oven on a single burner. I love these old stoves and think they are far superior in performance to propane stoves, but that’s just me. I had this set up in my shop so wind was not a factor. On a medium flame, the oven reached 350 degrees in 7 minutes with the two tiles on the second shelf. Other reviewers have noted that the built in temperature gauge is inaccurate and that was my experience, too. I used a separate temperature gauge and you can see the difference between the two readings in the photo. Sometimes the stock gauge would read much higher than the second gauge, sometimes much lower. I suspect that part of the reason for this is that the probe from the built-in gauge actually touches the bottom grate. In any case, I recommend using a separate gauge. At 350 degrees, I placed a pan of cinnamon rolls on the tiles on the second rack. Recommended backing time was 23 – 27 minutes, these were done in about 30. The tiles did a good job of preventing burnt bottoms. I found that maintaining an even temperature was easily done but I should note that with any of these stove top ovens you cannot just set the flame and walk away for 20 minutes! You really do need to closely monitor the temperature and make fairly frequent small adjustments to the flame. So, overall, I think this is a wonderful addition to my gear and a great value!

Camping

We bought both the Redcamp Camping Oven and the Coleman Camping Oven to compare side by side. After receiving them both we realized that, even without it ever being used, Amazon doesn’t allow the Coleman Oven to be returned. Considering this we were hoping that we would like the Coleman better. Unfortunately for us the Coleman can’t hold a candle to the Redcamp. Not only is it lacking a viewing window and carrying bag, the Redcamp is made of solid stainless steel while the Coleman is made of flimsy sheet metal with lots of gaps, holes and openings. These openings would likely require more propane and make retaining heat difficult. This makes the Coleman lighter but I doubt that it will hold up well to exposure to extreme heat and repeated use. The Coleman does have a heavy duty oven rack verses the Redcamp’s less sturdy three racks. In a perfect world Redcamp would make their racks a little sturdier. I’m somewhat concerned about the long term durability of the racks but they do seem sufficiently strong for the baking pans that we plan to use. After weighing all pros and cons we decided to keep the Redcamp. It was an easy decision and hopefully we will be able to sell the Coleman Oven on eBay or Facebook Marketplace next spring to recoup some of our losses. We did quite a bit of research on the best approach to setting up and using these foldable camping ovens. What we found was that using The Chef Master Grill Boss duel fuel stove along with the Chef Master Stove cover and a 9 inch pizza stone on the first rack gave us the best results. It provided the oven with a very stable base, helped direct the stove’s heat upwards while acting as an effective wind shield. The pizza stone insured that the heat was well distributed in the oven for even cooking. We first used this oven on a very windy, cold 40 degree fall day. The oven preheated to 400 degrees in under 10 minutes. Adjusting the flame of the stove we were able to maintain an even 350 degrees. The oven does get hot on the outside so you will need to be careful around children or animals and be sure to have your oven mitts ready. We easily were able to bake cinnamon buns that turned nicely browned on top without burning the bottoms. They made a yummy addition to our breakfast. Overall We highly recommend the Redcamp Oven. When properly equipped it seems to provide safe and excellent results in a compact package. As to long term use, I plan to update my review if we experience any disappointing durability issues.
