"Feed me" 🤣Don't be sorry, we were all thinking it!
I agree with the Firebox stove, well worth the money, very versatile with fuel and packs flat. I have both the 5” and the Nano and really enjoy them both.
By far and with out doubt, the Firebox is the best!!!!!
Firebox is great, and I see it on eye level with the bushbox (XL). These dumb plate-puzzles I will never accept, it is so annoying and fiddly to put them together.
This is a great first or cheap stove, not too difficult to put together. I agree Firebox Stoves are exceptional. I have several. My large Skyemac stove suits me better though because it's big enough to grill for two people, I use it a lot as a mini fire pit, not hard to put together, and not very expensive, I think I bought mine for $27. Of course you can cook or boil water. I cook on it 3-5 times a week. Very durable. As a matter of fact today I made a great big pot of chili!
This stove reminds me of a smaller version of the Skyemac!
"Feed me, Seymore!"
-Audrey II, probably.
I have one of these flat-pack stoves made from titanium. It's sweet. I like it as a woodstove, but it's also pretty good with an alcohol stove in there. Blocks the wind sufficiently enough. It doesn't take up a ton of space.
Very handy just as an EDC component in my backpack.
Problem with the Firebox is twofold: It's expensive and its' heavy. It certainly is easy to use and will last forever but paying $80 for a woodburning stove when you can just put your pots and pans into an open fire - - or buy a $13 stove that actually works -- doesn't make sense to me.
I found a similar stove that also has slots to hold a Trangia spirit burner for about the same price. All depends on what you want.
I think the Firebox would be perfect, either stainless of tungsten. I have 5 stoves based on your recommendation. Keep up the good work Doc!
I have all 3 Firebox stoves: 5" in SS, Nano and Freestyle in Ti. The 5" is one of my favorites for family camping. I was a big fan of the Nano until I got my Freestyle. I don't think I've used the Nano one time since when backpacking. The Freestyle is the peak of wood stove design in my opinion. Far and away my favorite wood stove.
Another great video. Always enjoy your in-depth analysis on products.
I like using a tangia inside fire boxes like this. Ive even used 6 hour candles to heat with. Sterno works too. Or the liquid candle heat that are 6+ hours....
Great video I love how it is very compact and folds up flat and takes up very little space in a pack.
Yep. Love my Firebox
Firebox for the win 🥇! I own the Ti mini and love it.
I am beginning to suspect that your addiction ain’t the stoves at all!😮 I think it is FIRE! Oh yeah and in the DSM-5 it’s called Pyromania and all of us who love a camp fire have it as well, which is pretty much all of mankind throughout history. The only difference is, when you love stoves, it is a controlled fire that can be used for good things like cooking, security from wild animals, or just staying warm! I just love stoves that work to cook my chow in the most convenient way without much hassle.😊
Hey Ernie, I got the Tomshoe titanium model that looks exactly like that except for the eyes and teeth. Easy to put together and light weight. I take it backpacking as a back in case I run out of alcohol for my Trangia. I always take a baggie of Vaseline cotton balls and put one under the twigs. That's a good deal for the stainless steel model. I have no complaints with mine.
Doc, I did smirk and lightly chuckled at the "feed me, feed me" gag. We appreciate you doing these reviews. I sure trust your opinions even if I don't follow them all. At least you can say, "I told you so." Good job you do.
I have thought about trying to put a cat can stove in a bit larger canister that's sealable to help conserve fuel. Your thoughts and cons on it?
I made a snap on lid for mine using a plastic sprite bottle. Cut top off, put over cat can, and heat shrink. Cut just below outer can lip, and done. It has kept alcohol for 3 months so far.
I use a party size balloon, cut the narrow part off. It makes a tight seal over the cat can and is very lightweight.
5 inch firebox is still the king for my money. I’ve got the SS and the Ti!
I only go out occasionally, so I have a cheap folding stove from Temu. If I was camping more often then I would get a titanium folding stove. But I’m going Birding on day hikes not far from a vehicle so I’ll stay with the cheap one
I have a couple of those style stoves. I do like the whimsy of the mouth feed hole. 😊
Looks basically like a knockoff Uberleben. Love my Firebox Ti and my Firebox Nano Ti. I take the Nano when doing bikepacking to save room in my bags.
Primus Classic Trail backpacking stove? Total guess and probably 99% chance this is wrong, lol. Thanks for all the great videos!
Another enjoyable video. I will have to look up your firebox video. With this stove I have a smaller type that can be wood or alcohol. It seems to suit my needs however I agree cool down period with wood takes a while. Haven't had a real hard core cook on it yet but you've intrigued me to do so. Thanks again and keep up the good work. 😊
Looks and assembles like my Emberlit stove at a much lower price. Nice find.
This is an Emberlit knock off. Found the folding stoves....think Firebox Freestyle 4 inch is much better. In my area wood pellets are $8. for a 40lb. bag. Drizzle a little hand sanitizer on the pellets and your good to go. 40 lbs goes a long way. Also own the Nano but the Freestyle is much more functional. Thanks PH.
Love the video Dr.Stove.
It was either the Vargo Decagon or the Vargo Triad, you disliked, so jettisoned.
If wrong my apologies to you and Vargo.
Thanks for sharing
Best regards Colin
I have a whole bunch of camp gear. I still look at my titanium g2 firebox as my favorite piece. I e been on long distance long duration trips with nothing but a g2 and it does a great job. This little cheap stove would probably work just as good. And except for the assembly process would be great
I have to agree the Firebox is as good as it gets. But it's a lot more than $13 and for that price tis stove looks pretty good. The key advantage to me is that it packs flat. Otherwise, you could make a can stove or for only a little more get the Ohuhu which is a gasifier as well
4:30 Don't be sorry, I know I saw that face on a Pokemon somewhere.
Thanks
Traded Simple theory pack stove
Have you heard of the EWM stove? English Woodsman in UK
Looks like a smaller,square version of the Skyemac stove/firepit
Firebox 🔥Stainless Steel is the Best all around Wood Stove for me,,,, Firebox customer service is Amazing ( Rochelle,, and team) that I’ve ever experienced.
I burn pretty Hot 🔥,,, and I’ve gotten some warping from the Titanium version. Stainless,,, all the Way,,,,!!!!
Firebox are The Best!
There is one with hinges which is MUCH easier to put together.
Good review, thanks for sharing YAH bless !
Firebox is the bomb ( I have one) but if you don't camp out much then I would go with the amazon.
I'm pretty sure I bought my gas one Solo stove knock off for only $10.50... and that thing rocks! Don't know what it cost nowadays.
I think you traded the biolite stove, but that’s a one in a hundred guess!
Soto Wind master Stove you would buy again !
4:30 You are not sorry. It had to be said. Own the joke! 😁
(I'm probably going to buy this stove just for the face. I don't NEED another stove, I have 4 FIrebox stoves. But that face!)
Yes, basically this is all you need.
It is even a really good stove in a sense that the opening is wide and goes very well down, so you can use longer and bigger twigs for firing ...
Of course, a firebox stove is better. Same as a Mercedes might be better than a little Honda. But basically ... you don't really need a firebox or a Mercedes. That's just always nice to have, but not a must.
About the bushboxes: I have several of them including accessories and even that certain plate to combine two in order to get a bigger one. Don't remember having ever have a problem.
You are right! I love to much gear and it is an addiction! We need to start a gear addiction group and write our own 12steps. We should call it GA or TMSA (To Many Stoves Anonymous) or what ever you want to call it, because you’re our doctor!😂 what do you think?😊
I'm guessing you gave away your 5 inch stainless Firebox when you got a titanium one, and regretted it?
Actually I think he gave away his 5in Firebox titanium and kept the stainless steel one
i have both emberlit titanium stoves and like them . the fire ant works with trangia and esbit burners was well
The stove looks OK. Nothing revolutionary about the design. I like the size. The price it just OK for what it is. I can make a fruit can stove for nothing and it will work just as good but it won't break down in size. Just thinking out loud. Keep up the good work.
Can you please review Stanley THE WILDFARE PRO SQUARE PAN COOKSET 5-PIECE SET | 2 QT? It’s a square frying pan for $85. Take one for the team!
Firebox
4:21 don't be sorry. We were all thinking the same thing.
Dr Ernie, I think the stove you traded was the Emberlit!
My kids would loose half the pieces in 10 mins. Monsters
Did you give away your firebox nano stainless steel? Thanks for another great video!
I have that one! I haven't used it yet.
Reminds me of Domo-kun.
Hey Doc, I just looked to see if you’ve done anything on rain ponchos vs rain jackets. How about exploring this area?
Jet boil flash!
Castle Fireskull !!! I Have the FIRE !!!!! 🔥
I'm guessing that you traded the Biolite stove.
❤️
👍👍👍.
I don't know what stove you are talking about, so I shall not even try 😏.
$13.00. At that price and if it does the job, then why not?
'Fiddly' to assemble and disassemble and retains heat .. no fuss. I'm a 'Boomer' (YOB 1950) and was raised not having everything served up on a plate and then being spoon fed. For $13.00, I'll look past it's little idiosyncracies and get on with it.
Ernie, I agree that the Firebox is an awesome cook system (and having one would be nice) but, in all fairness to Bushbox ..
I have the Bushbox LF in Stainless Steel and it's integral 'dropdown' Base and Fire Grate make it a cinch to assemble and disassemble. Fold open .. fold close.
Why the Bushbox as opposed to the Firebox? I live in Switzerland and buying and shipping the BB from just across the River made it a no-brainer. Besides Wood, it also handles Charcoal and a variety of Alcohol Stoves without blinking.
I suspect thar many of those Eastern Imports originate under the same roof, or at the very least, Industrial Complex. No fuss in buying from them at times.
It is noble to support Local Business .. Genuine Local Industry that is .. and not necessarily Local 'Importers'. However, not everyone can afford, or is prepared, to pay the Price Premium associated with Locally-Produced Products. It is what it is.
A good share .. thanks .. and another on the list. Until the next, take care ..
I agree with you 100%!
I bought a “Chinese” 100% titanium (put together 5pc) stove that’s great & mainly used cardboard & paper instead of “wood” and got great results with very fast, hot flames to boil small amounts of water or warm up food, ramen soup easily no fuss $10 a no brainer for a titanium stove (alky diy & Trangia fit perfectly)
It has to be the Vargo Decagon!
I don't think you traded this stove but I'll go with 123 sevan stove
Ernie you surprise me...all your other videos you've boiled some water. so how do we know if after putting a pot on top it won't stifle the flames?
complete wild guess Vargo titanium hexagon wood stove
Can a folding Sterno stove be used as a wood stove?
Nice inexpensive stove. I like your knee pad too ,what make is that ?
I found something humorous in the Amazon listing for this stove.
"Non-returnable due to Hazmat safety reasons"
What the actual heck? 😞
Bush box
Hi Ernie,
If you want a good quality cheap wood stove, have a look and see if the English Woodsman is still selling his from his TH-cam channel, made in the UK, £40 ,
gotta love Amazon item titles....I bet you traded off a BRS titanium pocket stove
Bushbox LF
Did you trade a Bush Buddy stove?!?
GOT ONE! Oh God no!😂
Correction -Kelly Kettle.
A Svea Stove
SVEA 123
The mosquitos are from China. They are variety that swarm during daylight and hitchhiked in on a cargo ship.
Search Puck Sticks, they still make them.
I am guessing the Ohuhu stove
I would never give up my Ohuhu
Thirteen Dollars, WOAH big spender, lolz...
What is the name of the h r stove?!?@😂
Skeletor? 💀
Bushbuddy
I like it at that price point. I’d probably carry pellet fuel.
This type of stove is not going to work well with pellets. The mouth opening us so low that you won't be able to get many pellets in before they start to spill out. For pellets a better choice would be the Ohuhu (or however it's spelled) or the Lixada Solostove copy.
copycat windmaster
While I don't have any problems with you recommending a Firebox stove as one of the best available, I think the description of it as "a little bit more expensive" is somewhat disingenuous. At $13 for this stove, and ~$75 for a the least expensive full size Firebox I saw on their website, I'm afraid I don't consider 6x the cost "a little more expensive". It's rather like saying a Lamborghini is "a little bit more expensive" than a Toyota Corolla.
Nothing against Firebox, everything I've heard says they're worth the money, but the description is a little bit off in my book.
Definitely recommend buying one of their stoves during one of their Kickstarters for any of their new products. You can generally get one at like 1/2 piece. It is extremely well made and you pay for the dependability and community/support around the stove.
Man, I'll take the cheap stove over a firebox any day! I haven't paid more than $12 for any of mine, and have made a few myself for free. Why pay for a firebox when I can buy a cheap stove and be able to add an alcohol burner and cheap nesting pan set for around the same price or less?
