Coleman Gas Camping Stove | Classic Propane Stove, 2 Burner, 4.1 x 21.9 x 13.7 Inches

For starters, YES this is the basic starter model propane camp stove. Keeping with the KISS principle, this stove offers all the performance you could want, plenty of cooking area, and simple, reliable operation. I bought this stove to replace a rather unreliable 2 burner propane stove with piezo igniters. Take my word for it, keep your camp stove as simple as possible. The last thing you want is to not be able to get your stove working on a week long camping trip. There are some obvious changes that have been made over the years of the production of the classic propane stove, mostly cosmetic. I do like that this particular variant has a buckle style latch instead of a simple friction catch as I have seen those friction catches fail, a lot over the years. The burners are Coleman's standard 10,000 BTU units, for a total of 20,000 BTU capacity.. They are well made, super easy to control and produce a LOT of heat. I was able to bring a quart of water from 50 degrees F to a boil in 3 minutes. Simmer control unlike many camp stoves, is fairly straight forward and easy to manage. There are a LOT of competitors to this, and many don't even come close to the heat output, or simmer control of this stove! Cook top surface is ample with enough room for 2 good size pans. Coleman claims a 12" and 10" can coexist on the stove at the same time. While not mine, but the same model, I have used in the past to cook spaghetti and meat sauce dinner in camp for a large group. (Using the TexSport family cook set). It was no problem at all. Both pots fit easily, and we fed 8 people off of this one little stove without having to juggle anything! The finish is very nice on this, better than the competitors, and the embossed Coleman Name in the lid is a nice touch. It's an old school enameled green paint, that is very durable, and honestly, quite attractive at least to my eye... The wind guards are painfully simple, but very effective, and superior in many ways to competing designs. The side flaps are adjustable to allow for more, or less air in to the burner, and space for larger pots / pans. The wind guards, and lid fold back completely out of the way in case you have some insanely large pot you need to put on the stove. So they have you covered... My only complaint with this stove, and it is universal for ALL 2 burner propane stoves is the rigid regulator line. Good I guess if you are only going to use the disposable cylinders, but lousy if you are hooking up to a 20LB tank, or have to use your stove on a narrow surface like a Coleman Pack Away camp kitchen. This is universal to all 2 burner propane stoves so I really shouldn't fuss much... Anyway, hanging the fuel bottle off in the air, or a heavy propane hose without support can bend the fuel line,and potentially cause leaks. So always make sure your fuel line or bottle are supported! Overall, and I don't think I am overstating this. I am nearly 50 years old at this time, and I fully expect this stove will outlast me, and likely be handed down in my estate. It's just that well made. If you are a beginning camper, this is the perfect stove for you, if you are an experienced camper that wants the simplicity of operation of propane, without the reliability problems of the fancier models, this is the stove for you.

used on a week trip through the PNW and found this little ticket to be quite a significant confidence booster after long days of travel, hiking, ziplining, etc. There is nothing like a hot meal after a long day. The Coleman cooker worked superbly. I do recommend this product as part of your gear; as part of this purchase do acquire a lighter that is has the extended neck. Made lighting this thing a breeze. Previous reviews stated that this thing only cooks hot and really, really hot, and though this may be true in a sense the ability to adjust flame size is there. Its not rocket science to know how to adjust down a burner after lighting it. Mallow me makes an awesome mess kit that we paired with this cooker. Both items made for a great kit to use each time we overland. Lastly the price on this thing was just right, sportsmans warehouse had it for much more expensive. Consider this as a great option for your outdoor gear.

This product is great. We took in on a road trip, where we cooked on it probably 10 or so nights out of the 16 that we were on the road. It was great to be able to pull into a campsite and be able to be cooking supper within minutes. No messing with getting a fire started, or smelling like smoke when showers might not be available. It puts out a lot of heat and brought water to a boil very quickly. It also uses surprisingly little propane. I bought 4 bottles for our trip, and ended up not even emptying the first one, even though a couple of nights I was running it for 15-20 minutes to boil soup or noodles. The construction of this device is solid, and it's got a nice enamel paint that's easy to clean splatter off of. The grate also comes off very easily, but is secure when in use. I was able to keep ours spotless with just wipedowns with baby wipes after each use. The one negative is that it's very hard to regulate the output of this stove. There is a very narrow range of the knob between full blast and off. There were a couple of times I tried to bring something down from a boil to a simmer and it ended up shutting off on me altogether. Once you use it a few times you start to get the hang of it, though. I was really glad to have bought this for our trip.

The valves in this stove are a big source of frustration, BUT there seems to be an easy fix, and once done the stove is perfect....just what you expect from Coleman. All you have to do is use a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the knobs on the valves. Then unscrew the brass nut that secures it to the front of the stove. Now back out the valve stem using the knob and remove the stem that has two O rings and the brass needle valve. Take a clean paper towel and wipe the gunk or the valve lube off of the O rings thoroughly. I blame the lube for the problem. The rings were in good condition. I then applied a tiny amount of silicone based plumber's grease, but you have to be sure you don't use one that is petroleum jelly or it can ruin the rubber. I bought a tube for a few bucks on Amason. Then I twisted some of the paper towel into a point and swabbed out the inside of the valve, but don't leave any paper in there or you are in trouble. Don't use a Q tip either or the fuzz may come off in there. Here is link for the silicone lube: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B000DZFUPC/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I didn't put too much lube on the O rings, and with my fingers I wiped it around the rings leaving only a light coat. Then reassemble. Now the valves can be adjusted neatly and precisely to reduce flame for simmering and easier control. I don't know if the factory used a valve lube that gives the valve that rubbery feeling that makes it hard to set the flame precisely, but once I did this operation the stove is a pleasure to use. If it needs to be repeated the job takes only a few minutes with few tools. Hope everyone finds this post without having to go through the learning curve. Please give a thumbs up to save everyone some trouble. I changed my review now from 1 star to 4 star and think in the long run this is the best propane camp stove out there and will last longer than my Blue Rhino...which was good but the regulators flake out much too soon to be considered a good long term stove. BTW, this stove is for our outdoor kitchen (under the porch and not in the rain) and we use it almost daily.

Nice propane fueled stove. Arrived on time without damage. Bought it for emergencies. Had a serious wind storm here in the Puget Sound area last Saturday. Power was out for about a day (yes, know that isn't really a long time, have gone through several days long outages in the past). However, by the time I got off work that day, got (fought) , my way home I was too tired/beat to get out the Coleman Peak 1 white gas stove, pump/prime it, and cook dinner (cold SPAM sandwiches weren't bad). Decided I wanted something easier and safer to use, so, after a bit of 'net research, including Amazon reviews, bought this one. It is great. Easy to set up and use. Boils enough water for coffee (~12 oz) in a couple of minutes. Two burners is nice, allows flexibility when cooking for the End Times. Recommend getting a piezo electric 'sparker' to use instead of matches. Bought the stove for emergencies, but it is so easy and flexible to use I think it will make a good stove for general (outdoor) use. Also, I consider propane (using the 16.4 oz canisters at this time) safer than the white gas that the Peak 1 single burner stove uses. The 16.4 oz propane cylinders are easier to attach, store, and replace than white gas, and propane cylinders are more widely available than white gas.The propane cylinders are self sealing, and so it is easy to store the stove and fuel separately (stove indoors, after it cools, fuel in the garage). Very difficult to empty a white gas (liquid fuel) stove.

I bought this after a big blizzard hit northeast PA leaving me without power for close to six days without electric in the dead of winter. I have electric heat and an electric stove/oven. Needless to say, not a good situation, especially that for two days the roads were blocked by downed trees. All I had to cook with with a BBQ without the side burner, making my cooking options limited at best. Once electric, internet, and cellular service were restored in my area, I immediately ordered this. Setting it up was very easy. I also got the matching Coleman 5-Ft. High-Pressure Propane Hose and Adaptor for this, as I read the reviews and many people stated that the Amazon recommended Char-broil brand propane hose is NOT compatible with this. I hooked this to a 20-lb propane tank, which turning/screwing it in COUNTER-CLOCKWISE into the opening of the 20-lb tank. It quickly attached, and the rest of this went together quickly. Operation: It was a little windy and the temps outside were 32 degrees according to the thermometer on my deck. I boiled a small pot of water in 8 minutes. Works very good and burns so clean that you will have a hard time seeing the flame when the sun is out. Shutdown was easy. I let it cool and I packed it up. What is nice is that valve and the accessory Coleman 5-Ft. High-Pressure Propane Hose and Adaptor fit inside the grill and you can lock then up inside it so no worries about losing anything. There is a little handle on it to carry it. I recommend it. Nice to have around in case of a lengthy blackout.

Easy for use. Good quality. Best brand

We just bought an exact same model, the Coleman 2 burner stove classic, in place of the one we've been using for the last 20 years. I have nothing but good things to say about this basic but solid stove. It is great for simmering and will also boil your water in no time. It is easy to clean as well. In 20 years I have had NOTHING break on this thing, unfortunately the burners themselves are corroded to a point where the stove could no longer effectively heat things up. If Coleman sold separate replacement burners my old stove would still be going strong. Top quality product at a great price without unnecessary bells and whistles!

Fácil de transportar, extraordinaria para cocinar en el campo. Definitivamente recomendada con los cartuchos de gas desechables de Coleman o de cualquier otra marca, mismos que se consiguen fácilmente en tiendas de productos para el hogar (hágalo usted mismo) como Home Depot o tiendas de deportes y campismo o por internet. También se pude usar con una manguera para conectarlo a un tanque de gas de 9 litros para parrillas de gas caseras. Las dos hornillas son extremadamente útiles para preparar un desayuno o comida completa para 6 personas sin retrasos ni problemas. Sin duda una extensión muy conveniente del hogar para el campo si llevan familia completa y mascotas...

Best in Gas stove

I love this product but the only one thing which i don't like is that if you use both stove at once the heat get less which make the boiling point takes more time then using single. But over all love this stove for out door use specially on my boat.
