Good review. I use this stove every day inside my small travel trailer as my primary source of heat at my off grid homestead. It works fantastically. One thing you have to be very diligent with is CLEANING THE FLUE. This stove is not really designed to be used every single day like your average household wood stove is, so if you do use it every day, you need to CLEAN YOUR FLUE OFTEN because the 3 inch pipe clogs up really quickly with heavy use. In the cold winter months I clean my pipes out every few days. You'll know when its time to clean: you won't be able to get good airflow in the firebox and smoke will start puffing out the front door. Right angle flue joints are your worst enemy when it comes to keeping a clean flue (unfortunately I'm forced to use 2 of them in my setup). They are the pieces that will clog the fastest. 45 degree angle joints are better if you can manage them. The best possible option is to use a completely straight up-and-down flue pipe. If my setup didn't have any joints/angles, I could probably get away with cleaning the flue once a month as opposed to once a week.
Thanks Diop Side, that's great information. What did you use to clean the flue with, anything particular? By the way, feel free to sub and help us grow!
I've used it as the main heat source in my sailboat for 2 years, and it throws out a load of heat and sounds like a jetengine if you down turn down the air inlet. It's very trustworthy and sturdy. Of course it gives heat fast and losses it fast. I'm considering to build some mass around it. But for sure it is a good stove.
@@d.a.t.4699 some stainless will corrode quickly in anaerobic environment, so might help to leave an inch of airspace... also effective aircrete "mass" is relative, of course but a 2-3in thick removable aircrete dome over the g-stove could add a couple hours, at best, of residual warmth, after the fire goes out, which may or may not make all that much difference, on those looong winter mights... but while the fire is going such an accessory might just bake a pie!
The viewing window is one of the main reasons that we got this stove. Being able to see the flames not only looks amazing, but it provides such a psychological boost.
Owned one for 3 years. Still the best design I've come across. Mine's got the oven which fits mess tins. Use in my lavuu. Lasts a few hours with one fuelling, grest control.
Thank you for the effort you put forth to bring us this excellent review. I find that this is one of three stoves that I would actually consider buying (I already own the magnificent Four Dog Stove Company titanium Ultra Light II). I discovered "hot tenting" in the middle 1980's while living in Wyoming and I never looked back. Unfortunately all of my gear was destroyed in 2017 but I am slowly replacing it. I still need a sled/pulk, snowshoes, and a few odd items, but everything should be in place by the time I retire.
That is the coolest thing I have ever seen. I want one! A cooking tip : When you're at the stage of re-frying the rice, drop a tablespoon of butter in with it - the rice will brown up much nicer. Subscribed now. Good job.
Sales have been crazy as people have seen the review. So stock has sold out. The manufacturer in Norway is working very hard to restock all the shops. Keep checking my friend.
Excellent review. Mine should be arriving in Dec. from Luxe Hiking Gear in the USA. All the reviews I've seen are positive. Gstove has a good TH-cam channel worth checking out. Thanks for this.
I bought the winnerwell for inside my airstream trailer it works like a champ. Not alot of difference s but I do like the draft on the door of the G stove, the winner well comes with a pipe oven. Spark arestor has screen on it.and I didn't buy the water jacket I just boil my water but I can see why it comes in handy can cook on top and boil water. Excellent piece of survival equipment
Just an idea but if you were to pack rocks around the bottom and around the sides of the stove they would heat up and give you heat after the fire has gone out like a battery. I haven't tried it myself but after watching your great video that idea just came to me. What do you think?
@@DonegalOverlanding Im from northern Canada,you cant beat a lovely piping hot steak pie on a cold snowy day!...i subscribed to your channel...have a great day and enjoy your beautiful new stove!...cheers!
I just purchased one of these. What is the best firelighters and wood to use to really keep the heat going and make the whole stove hot I was hoping the fold down sides would get hot but I was struggling to get them warm. I'm going overlanding and intend to use it but want to make sure I use the right fire materials.
That is a really nice wood stove and I love that water dispenser. I also see how nice that spring-loaded locking mechanism is but am a bit concerned that when the unit is really hot, it might be kind of difficult to apply pressure to lock or unlock the door. Also, I didn't see if there is a screen to prevent amber from escaping... it would be even nicer if they also make a little bigger unit to give more cooking space...
There is no problem with the opening and closing of the door at any temp. They have an XL version, which is the same, just extra large. There is no screen though we have not found that to be a problem as yet.
@@DonegalOverlanding thanks for the info. I watched a different video and that was their concern (screen) which is always my concern every time our family goes camping and we started a fire. Anyway, its a great looking wood stove.
They do have a larger one. Its called XL, check out the website here for more info. It comes with a lifetime warranty too. www.gstove.com/gstove/12006/gstove-heat-view-xl-camping-stove-lifetime-warranty-plus-glass-door
I do wish these type of videos would include the article prices . I am aware that they can differ for various reasons but the approximate cost when not exact, are encouraging to look further into it. No prices is so annoying it's off putting in a strong way. Despite this, your video was interesting. Thankyou.
I am glad you found the video interesting. If you read the description, I put the link to the shop where it was ordered. It has all of the different sizes and accessories for the Gstove. If someone is genuinely interested in considering buying one then its not very difficult to find out the price.
@@FrankCanada6868 they're in nova scotia. Been using my new gstove and it's better quality than I'd expected (and my expectations were high...!) Perfect. Wouldn't change a thing. I got the one with the window, flue damper, and spark arrestor. Damper is a must, IMO.
@@FrankCanada6868 my pleasure. I had to wait for mine to be shipped from Norway, but it was worth the wait. I see the stoves are in stock but the dampers are on backorder. Anyway, good luck!
I'm curious how portable these are on comparison to some of the high end titanium ones that break down for a pack. Considering the proper stove for extreme camping in Alaska, possible during winter hunts, but also don't want to have to haul around something really heavy.
You can see how small it is. It is not a flat pack stove like some, but they never last as the metal is too thin. You can buy a bag for it to more easily transport it too. Check out the website in the description for prices and accessories.
Another great review. Looking for options for heating a bell tent in the winter months or indeed those cold summer months we get. Would love a copy of the recipe.
Cheers my good man. The beauty of the GStove is that its so lightweight and compact, yet versatile enough that it can be used for many purposes. The recipe....umm chicken, onions, rice and some weird vegetables. :D
Great video, thanks!🙏🏻♥️🙏🏻 What’s the $$$ damage on the stove, hot water heater, and the flue thingy? We want to use it in our RV. (We tour ten months out of the year and Canadian winters are even colder than Scottish one’s! I’m Scots - born and bred.) Nice to hear a voice from home!💃💃💃 Love and All Good Things, Jesse.🌹

@@peetsnort it is rare, and especially considering its all made in Norway. Typically Norway would be a very expensive place due to the rather high cost of living, so this really is something special.
What a great review! It's a stove I've looked at before but not seen any proper reviews on it. My only concern is it wouldn't be high enough for the tent and with extended flue not enough draw. I'm always looked around for a smaller one to the Tentipi one I have which can be overkill at times.
You wont have any issues with the draw, it really has a strong suction. There are optional longer legs which lift it higher off the floor, they would also mean you wouldnt need the fireproof mat under the stove. The carpet became quite hot under it because it was so close as I only had the short legs and I didnt have a fireproof mat under it.
Lost lakes channel had one but got a bigger stove because it wouldn't out enough heat for canadian winters in a decent size tent. They said build quality was fantastic. Just too small
Thanks Walter. It depends very much on the size of the wood of course. In this video we used hardwood, but they were quite small. A friend gave us this wood free of charge as they work in a factory building high end kitchens and these are off-cuts which they take home to burn. You could have wood burn for more than 30 minutes no problem before considering putting more in, or some even use manufactured firelogs which last 2 or more hours at a time.
@@slappy442 If You got nice some embers in it and load a big chunk of hardwood (as big as it gets through the door) in the oven and close the flaps for minimal draft, it burns about 90-120 minutes. If You want to expand the heating time, just put some fireproof stones or a pot filled with (dry) sand on top of the stove, that additional mass works as a heat reservoir. 10-20 kilos additional mass is no problem for the solid G-Stove. Brikets (those huge round or octagonal Pellets) of pressed tree-bark also works fine and glows for several hours. But be careful with "processed" Fuel, although the G-Stove is made of stainless steel, it's a wood stove... ;)
@@SH1974 took ya seven months but thanks. I bought one after and used it a few times last winter. I found with the front door damper and the flue damper closed i was getting alot of back draft! Then I made the adjustments to the dampers for it to be as closed as possible without the backdraft.
I just viewed a video where a guy and his father built a small cabin in the woods. Anyway he had the same stove. I’m thinking WoW I like that stove. The only thing that would make the stove better is if had been enameled... Looking at the weld spots are going to rust. But still yet nice engineering 👍 great demo.👍👍👍👍👍
Its a great stove, but I wish that the shelves never had the gap for things to fall off near the body. What is the point of that gap? Why not a bar all the way along as on the rest of the shelves?
@@DonegalOverlanding Yes, Life has many flavors. It is taking the time to fully enjoy things. Simple things if done with a little fore thought, can be very enjoyable. We are teaching & learning every day. Life is.
@@telloarevalo862 nice copy - I prefer the original. Just the facts that I can detach the door to shake ashes out the stove - or replace a broken glass if necessary - and look at the welds.... The G-Stove is another league of manufacturing.
@@telloarevalo862 Not to us. We bought both. Winnerwell is an pale imitation of a well engineered stove with easily replaceable components and world class customers service. Replacement parts are important when some people do not watch where they are backing up that Ford 450. Our Winnerwell stove and oven manufacturing left much to be desired..
Most of the heat that boils the water comes from the top of the stove not the stove-pipe. It needs a simple spacer to slide in between the stove and the water heater after it boils so it will stay hot but not boil away so fast. A quarter inch copper pipe shaped something like a Y or a U with a handle like a wishbone. Call it 'The Wishbone Regulator'.
Its not easy at the moment. Gstove is now GST Gear. They are in the process of rebuilding with new premises and building stock, and even a new stove. So stay tuned for more info.
Hello Guys. How much money do these stoves cost, and where can they possible this one stoves bought???🤔🤔🤔🤔😉😉😉 I WISH YOUR A HAPPY NEW YEAR. Good luck guys.
Hi, we have not. We have not used it a great deal because our vehicle has been in the garage for over a year being rebuilt. The worlds first ever Discovery 130!
Looks good but one question? Is it Chinese stainless steel which is magnetic and does rust or is it real stainless steel which is not magnetic and does not rust?
All stainless steel can rust. That is why it is called stainLESS. However there are various grades. I am not sure what grade it is, but it has no signs of rusting anywhere on it.
Nice review ! I'm looking for a stove and hesitate between this stove and the petromax Loki ! Can you tell me (us) more about your camp : tipi model, floor ... ? Thanks and happy new year from France !
I made a similar set up out of an old steel mailbox laid on it's side and 6 sections of collapsible dryer vent tube. Everything stashes inside the stove.
Hi Julius, the tent is called a Bell Tent. This particular one is a 4 meter Deluxe model. On the floor it has carpets. They consist of 2 half moon shaped carpets. Really adds a bit of luxury to things! Would appreciate a sub to help us grow the channel if you want to see more of this kind of thing.
I am not sure. We are in Ireland. A quick google should help. I have heard that since we uploaded this video that they are selling out all over the place and they are finding it hard to keep up as they are a small comp[any and everything is hand made.
@@DonegalOverlanding I do alot of fishing it keeps me sane, I've been meaning to get more longer bivvy sessions but times not always there buddy, I got a little folding bbq made by a company called Trakker that takes one off those charcoal bags that you just light the paper and it doubles up as a mini fire pit for the camping and overnight fishing it's only something like £25 of ebay if only GStove were that cheap hahaha. I fish in Donegal alot too and when I had the defender 90 I did a lot of off roading beautiful parts of the world that's right on my doorstep. If the 90 was still roadworthy I'd be doing more off roading content but she's sadly SORNed at the moment.
Glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully one day we get to travel to the USA and explore. The biggest problem is we would love it so much and then not be able to stay!
That is the same size as the stove we are using in the video, but it's designed to be able to work as an oven. So you could put a pie or something in there. From what we have read online from other users it results in the main chamber being a good bit shorter meaning you have to use smaller logs in the fire. Its small enough as it is so we decided to go with the version we have in the video. If we want an oven we can buy the flue oven attachment which is a proper oven that's sealed with temp gauge.
How is this stove compared to the one from Tentipi, for a Safir 9 tent? It have enough capacity to warm the inside space, it's strong enough to last for years, or longer? how about the price and weight?! Please!
No idea about eh Safir 9 tent. It can certainly warm up any tent, its roasting if you have it going full, in fact you couldnt bear to sit there with it going full, it would be too hot inside a tent. Weight and price you can find yourself by clicking the link.
In Texas we don’t get to enjoy listening to such a nice accent often, & you have such a nice voice besides... So why do have that music all over the top of what you are saying to us. You have a nice steady flow without a bunch of dead time... you don’t NEED that music. I would have enjoyed your video TEN TIMES MORE if it had been just you speaking. Besides, it’s a bit too loud & nearly drowned you out. Can you do another demo with no music, Thanks! Great little stove, I want one too!
Thanks for the compliment. The music, its subjective I guess. I dont really like listening to my own voice, but thats not why the music is there. I think perhaps its because when Im not narrating over the top, I feel its a little boring. I will keep the music volume in mind though as I know it could annoy some people.
@@DonegalOverlanding Another Texan here. You DO have a nice voice and adorable accent. I too would have loved just listening to your narrative. Would you mind saying how often you had to add fuel to the stove? I apologize if it was in the video and I missed it.
Jesus God Good Evening Possibly you can update and Manufacture this one with upgrades for us in the USA 🇺🇸 many of us would love one made locally I am sure. 😊
There is a larger model, I think its called XL> There is a link in the description which has all the various models, have a look. Even this small one pumps out a huge amount of heat. Ive used it a lot in the Bell Tent and I have to have the windows open as its so hot.
The Stove is nice. The only problem with it, you can’t control the burn very well. The Glass door has just too many gaps to let air in. A gasket for the door and no window would probably be better.
You can buy it without a window, in fact its cheaper. However for us, seeing the flames is extremely important. Its beautiful to look at, you can easier see when you need to add more fuel and without the glass door we might as well use our diesel heater.

There are optional longer legs which lift it higher off the floor, they would also mean you wouldnt need the fireproof mat under the stove. The carpet became quite hot under it because it was so close as I only had the short legs and I didnt have a fireproof mat under it.
Lost lakes channel had one but got a bigger stove because it wouldn't out enough heat for canadian winters in a decent size tent. They said build quality was fantastic. Just too small
Great review. For how long will the stove heat before reloading?
Thanks for letting me know.
Thanks Walter. It depends very much on the size of the wood of course. In this video we used hardwood, but they were quite small. A friend gave us this wood free of charge as they work in a factory building high end kitchens and these are off-cuts which they take home to burn. You could have wood burn for more than 30 minutes no problem before considering putting more in, or some even use manufactured firelogs which last 2 or more hours at a time.
@@DonegalOverlanding thats all?? Half an hour max burn time? What about longer burn times with the front damper closed and the pipe damper closed?
@@slappy442 If You got nice some embers in it and load a big chunk of hardwood (as big as it gets through the door) in the oven and close the flaps for minimal draft, it burns about 90-120 minutes. If You want to expand the heating time, just put some fireproof stones or a pot filled with (dry) sand on top of the stove, that additional mass works as a heat reservoir. 10-20 kilos additional mass is no problem for the solid G-Stove.
Brikets (those huge round or octagonal Pellets) of pressed tree-bark also works fine and glows for several hours.
But be careful with "processed" Fuel, although the G-Stove is made of stainless steel, it's a wood stove... ;)
@@SH1974 took ya seven months but thanks.
I bought one after and used it a few times last winter.
I found with the front door damper and the flue damper closed i was getting alot of back draft!
Then I made the adjustments to the dampers for it to be as closed as possible without the backdraft.
@@slappy442 sorry, didn't see it earlyer...
I just viewed a video where a guy and his father built a small cabin in the woods. Anyway he had the same stove. I’m thinking WoW I like that stove.
The only thing that would make the stove better is if had been enameled... Looking at the weld spots are going to rust.
But still yet nice engineering 👍 great demo.👍👍👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it. We have had it well over a year now and no sign of any corrosion at all. Fingers crossed!
Thank you for responding... I really do want one.
I just ordered it. I bought the XL, water tank, extra pipe and 2 45 degree pipes.
Superb! You're going to love it.
Its a great stove, but I wish that the shelves never had the gap for things to fall off near the body. What is the point of that gap? Why not a bar all the way along as on the rest of the shelves?
The shelves are designed so that they stay as cool as possible.
I just want to know how low it can be turned down...and what happens when the damper is closed. Does the fire go out?
fantastic review !
I totally want one
Y'all are living the Good life. Thank you for showing the stove. Very nice.
Great food too. Lol
Great video.
Thanks Glenn, life is for enjoying as much as possible.
@@DonegalOverlanding Yes, Life has many flavors. It is taking the time to fully enjoy things. Simple things if done with a little fore thought, can be very enjoyable.
We are teaching & learning every day.
Life is.
Excellent Video for that stove and that dish looks delicious, I’m looking at to buy ! Thanks for the honest showing !
Thanks very much Mark, appreciate that!
My friend what is that awesome tune in the background called, where can I find it?
th-cam.com/video/E-9Fjw_vcRA/w-d-xo.html. I had to track it down myself once I heard it
Looks like a solid product to me. I’d love to have one myself. I could get plenty of use out of it.
Yeah its really cool. Hopefully you get yourself one and get to enjoy like we have, its well worth it.
To answer the question "Is it as good as everyone says it is?"
No. It is NOT AS GOOD as everyone says it is.
It is better.
(I own mine since may 2017)
Wrong...nomad woodburning stove by winnerwell is much better.

@@telloarevalo862 nice copy - I prefer the original.
Just the facts that I can detach the door to shake ashes out the stove - or replace a broken glass if necessary - and look at the welds....
The G-Stove is another league of manufacturing.
@@SH1974 copy or not..bottom line it's better...
@@telloarevalo862 Not to us. We bought both. Winnerwell is an pale imitation of a well engineered stove with easily replaceable components and world class customers service. Replacement parts are important when some people do not watch where they are backing up that Ford 450. Our Winnerwell stove and oven manufacturing left much to be desired..
Beautifully engineered
Its a beauty!
That has got to be one of the best looking tent stoves ive ever seen, well done sir well done indeed.
Wow, thanks!
Most of the heat that boils the water comes from the top of the stove not the stove-pipe. It needs a simple spacer to slide in between the stove and the water heater after it boils so it will stay hot but not boil away so fast. A quarter inch copper pipe shaped something like a Y or a U with a handle like a wishbone. Call it 'The Wishbone Regulator'.
I've been looking for the g stove
To order it but haven't found a place to do that
Its not easy at the moment. Gstove is now GST Gear. They are in the process of rebuilding with new premises and building stock, and even a new stove. So stay tuned for more info.
@@DonegalOverlanding let me know if you find out anything
How well does it warm up a tent?
Amazingly well. You have to really reduce the air flow using the vent at the front or it very quickly becomes far too hot inside the tent.
Looks a nice bit of kit.🤠 do they do a bigger one,
Check the link in the description for all of the range, they have several different models to choose from.
How compared to the Winnerwell? Because that's what I have.
It would be nice to give estimates to fuel usage rate and time to cook and boil in the description about
how big (which model?) is the lovely tent at 8:18?
Its a 3 metre bell tent.
@@DonegalOverlanding thanks it looked so cozy with the chair and all inside and fluffy seems to enjoy it as well :D husky?
Hello Guys.
How much money do these stoves cost, and where can they possible this one stoves bought???🤔🤔🤔🤔😉😉😉
I WISH YOUR A HAPPY NEW YEAR.
Good luck guys.
Have you put different flashing on the fit the gstove pipe since this video? If so how has it been?
Hi, we have not. We have not used it a great deal because our vehicle has been in the garage for over a year being rebuilt. The worlds first ever Discovery 130!
Donegal Overlanding I was told those flashing was good for 300 degrees and gstove said the pipe got hotter than that. I’ll give it a go though
It's a work of art beautiful.
Can you link to the g-stove on that store? I cannot find any there. thanks!
Gstove was bought over by GST Gear. Here is a link for you. www.gstgear.com/
How well did it heat the bell tent??
Looks good but one question? Is it Chinese stainless steel which is magnetic and does rust or is it real stainless steel which is not magnetic and does not rust?
All stainless steel can rust. That is why it is called stainLESS. However there are various grades. I am not sure what grade it is, but it has no signs of rusting anywhere on it.
Nice review !
I'm looking for a stove and hesitate between this stove and the petromax Loki !
Can you tell me (us) more about your camp : tipi model, floor ... ?
Thanks and happy new year from France !
Hi Sam, its a 4 metre bell tent deluxe model.
Been looking at getting one thank you for the video
Nice build, how much and where?
Link in description. Www.gobbqco.com
I definitely could use one of this for my camping trip one day 😁 awesome stove.
Love it.
They are cool stoves, everyone that sees it loves it. I have to keep my eye on it or it would go walkies! :D
Just looked up luxe hiking gear, and they're out of stock now..oww.
Amazon has it online.
In stock now.
I made a similar set up out of an old steel mailbox laid on it's side and 6 sections of collapsible dryer vent tube. Everything stashes inside the stove.
Nice, lovely buy. I can’t get this where I live. Will get it copied/ made, won’t be of such high quality. ☺️👌🙏
I enjoyed your video. What was the tipi you were using, and was that floor part of it, or something you added? Thank you again.
Hi Julius, the tent is called a Bell Tent. This particular one is a 4 meter Deluxe model. On the floor it has carpets. They consist of 2 half moon shaped carpets. Really adds a bit of luxury to things! Would appreciate a sub to help us grow the channel if you want to see more of this kind of thing.
Looks extremely well built.
A tough wee cookie as we would say in Scotland! Would appreciate a sub to the channel to help us build as fast as possible please.
I checked the link you listed in a below post. Website said sold out. Maybe it was just the one store? Lovely unit, nice size.
I am not sure. We are in Ireland. A quick google should help. I have heard that since we uploaded this video that they are selling out all over the place and they are finding it hard to keep up as they are a small comp[any and everything is hand made.
How have I missed this channel, well done on the review I have been looking for something like this for the fishing and hunting.
Thanks David, really appreciate that. We actually uploaded a fishing trip for some trout, it was our first time! Have a look on the channel for it.
@@DonegalOverlanding I do alot of fishing it keeps me sane, I've been meaning to get more longer bivvy sessions but times not always there buddy, I got a little folding bbq made by a company called Trakker that takes one off those charcoal bags that you just light the paper and it doubles up as a mini fire pit for the camping and overnight fishing it's only something like £25 of ebay if only GStove were that cheap hahaha.
I fish in Donegal alot too and when I had the defender 90 I did a lot of off roading beautiful parts of the world that's right on my doorstep.
If the 90 was still roadworthy I'd be doing more off roading content but she's sadly SORNed at the moment.
well done sir
Do you have a link for the tent as well. It looks like a nice tent.
We bought the bell tent second hand from Gumtree. The cheapest Ive seen them new is from Obelink.nl in Holland.
How well do the legs work if you're on uneven ground? I wonder if some of the 3 legged designs may work better in this situation?
To be honest, we have not used it on uneven ground except on a beach, in which case it was easy to make it even.
Mute point !
How long does the fire last. Is it very efficient, would the fire warm you through the night if it is cold?
Thats a neat bit of gear well thought out 🙂👍
This product is pure camping luxury !!!!
Really enjoyed your review on the stove.I don't think I need to watch another. Come over to Idaho USA and go camping in the true wilds!! Cheers!!
Glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully one day we get to travel to the USA and explore. The biggest problem is we would love it so much and then not be able to stay!
Sooo I'm not seeing a downside? Come on over and live in a beautiful country with great food and people!!
Hands down one of the best
Cut the firelighter in cubes or sticks. Add a flue heat exchanger a smaller fire will keep you warm all night.
On the smaller models there is a large slot on the back that goes all the way through, what is this for?
That is the same size as the stove we are using in the video, but it's designed to be able to work as an oven. So you could put a pie or something in there. From what we have read online from other users it results in the main chamber being a good bit shorter meaning you have to use smaller logs in the fire. Its small enough as it is so we decided to go with the version we have in the video. If we want an oven we can buy the flue oven attachment which is a proper oven that's sealed with temp gauge.
Stainless.
Stains less.
Not rust proof but apart from rough welding looks good.
Great video cheers
Thanks Tim, I actually knew that, but I think I forgot when making the video :D
@@DonegalOverlanding Well, it's obviously got the dug's appproval! :--)
@@Jigaboo123456 hahhaa yeah!
Would this heat a 20 x 20' bell tent? Or should I look for something bigger?
It would heat it easily. Make sure and get the heat protector mat. We posted a video showing it and the oven in use just a week or so ago.
Excellent review. thanks, Gotta have one. Thumbs up
Can it keep you warm in , 40 below and is it for cooking and keeping warm also because I will be using it in a tent
How well, for how many years, we’ll the stainless stand up to high heat and heating/cooling cycles?
Im no engineer, so I cannot answer your question with any authority. Its still perfect so far.
When they were putting the stove into the packaging, they probably put the smoke tubes in upside down...that's why it was so hard to take out.
Its a lot easier now for sure!
How is this stove compared to the one from Tentipi, for a Safir 9 tent? It have enough capacity to warm the inside space, it's strong enough to last for years, or longer? how about the price and weight?! Please!
No idea about eh Safir 9 tent. It can certainly warm up any tent, its roasting if you have it going full, in fact you couldnt bear to sit there with it going full, it would be too hot inside a tent. Weight and price you can find yourself by clicking the link.
@@DonegalOverlanding thank you!
In Texas we don’t get to enjoy listening to such a nice accent often, & you have such a nice voice besides... So why do have that music all over the top of what you are saying to us. You have a nice steady flow without a bunch of dead time... you don’t NEED that music. I would have enjoyed your video TEN TIMES MORE if it had been just you speaking. Besides, it’s a bit too loud & nearly drowned you out. Can you do another demo with no music, Thanks!
Great little stove, I want one too!
In Kerrville and agree
Thanks for the compliment. The music, its subjective I guess. I dont really like listening to my own voice, but thats not why the music is there. I think perhaps its because when Im not narrating over the top, I feel its a little boring. I will keep the music volume in mind though as I know it could annoy some people.
@@DonegalOverlanding Another Texan here. You DO have a nice voice and adorable accent. I too would have loved just listening to your narrative. Would you mind saying how often you had to add fuel to the stove? I apologize if it was in the video and I missed it.
Looks like a very nice/well made product, but as a welder those welds actually aren't all that pretty
Jesus God Good Evening
Possibly you can update and Manufacture this one with upgrades for us in the USA 🇺🇸 many of us would love one made locally I am sure. 😊
@@kathyfann Not available in the US? Dang it. Love that water thing. Brilliant
@@recoveringsoul755 - they ship to the lower 48..
who ever call themselves for "jesus god " can not be taken seriously . mindset error
@@kathyfann weld one out of a propane tank
If they make a larger model, say for a 22ft camper I need one for wintering on a goldmine in Colorado at 6,600ft come Nov.
There is a larger model, I think its called XL> There is a link in the description which has all the various models, have a look. Even this small one pumps out a huge amount of heat. Ive used it a lot in the Bell Tent and I have to have the windows open as its so hot.
The Stove is nice. The only problem with it, you can’t control the burn very well. The Glass door has just too many gaps to let air in.
A gasket for the door and no window would probably be better.
You can buy it without a window, in fact its cheaper. However for us, seeing the flames is extremely important. Its beautiful to look at, you can easier see when you need to add more fuel and without the glass door we might as well use our diesel heater.
