Campingaz Camp Bistro Stove, 1 burner, camping stove, 2200-watt capacity, compact outdoor cooker, includes carry case for easy transport

I purchased two of these, instead of a single double-burner stove, as the double-burners tend to be overpriced, and too large as a single unit; not only for storage purposes, but also when trying to find a single large enough area to operate them.These arrived well packed, free from defects and with good user & safety instructions. These stoves appear to have been manufactured with a good compromise between build quality, weight and with a well-finished appearance and good stability.I was particularly impressed by the various safety elements incorporated into the stove itself; especially its 2no. overpressure lockout sensors with reset button: Also the pan supports, which have short vertical stubs preventing the placement of oversize pans above the gas chamber, which could lead to overheating of the gas cannister and valve chamber. Even the carry case has its own safety mechanism, preventing storage of the stove with a gas cannister left connected.Installing a gas cannister was straightforward - just take care that the cannister is correctly aligned and orientated as shown on the additional enclosed safety notice in the chamber.Ignition operated flawlessly. I was also pleased with the gas flow control knob, which operated smoothly, providing good flame control from minimum through to maximum.After use it was easy switching off and removing the gas cannister; but you must not be in a hurry packing it away and moving on, as it does take quite a while for the burner and pan supports to cool down enough to stow away in the plastic case.A tip for replacing the stove back into its carry case: The inside of the case with the 2no bars across is the top lid of the case, and should drop down onto the top of the stove, with the stove front facing the case handle. You will see the case safety device sitting just below the gas cannister lever, preventing the lever from being in the down closed position.All-in-all these are good stoves: If keeping for emergency use, then remember to get a good stock of butane gas cannisters, as at maximum 2.2kW heat output, they are quoted as lasting 1hour 15mins, probably much less in cold weather, so judicious use will be required.Bear in mind the need for adequate ventilation and a suitable audible carbon monoxide detector / alarm, if not being used outdoors.

Looks good. Fool proof safety features. Works a treat and excellent value!

Great product, although it would be a good idea to put a guard round the sides to stop the wind Affecting the cooking time. Took ages to boil some water for a tea! 😁

Really great little stove. I just moved into my first home and am currently using this for simple meals whilst I await delivery of induction hob and oven etc. Works brilliantly and my mother was also very impressed so I came back with the intention of purchasing another for her however I was disappointed to see it had increased by about £10 in the space of just 2 weeks, so having to go with an alternative brand.

Fine looking Stove with the shiny chrome look. Gas control excellent as can turn level really low so as to keep food hot. Easy to operate and change gas canister. Would recommend this model to anyone looking for a good Stove.

Great value for money, easy to use, while the weight isn’t the lightest and the most portable, it is surely stable and safe to hold larger pots or pans. It’s easy to clean as well.

Bought for an electric fail day event and tried it out, works very well, good flame, strong case, easy to work with. Exactly how I wanted!

Well made and compact good value for money, wish they had included a gass canister
