Hello, thank you for doing this tutorial. I could probably use this in an electric outage on my cement slab. But like you say...use mesh screen. Regardless I appreciate you taking time to show this!
Thanks, it was my pleasure... And Yes, using mesh screen for safety OR you go a bit bigger with this one here : th-cam.com/video/lH0185MwKzI/w-d-xo.html&t
Thank you for making this video, I have wondered if this convenient and inexpensive folding stove could work as a twig stove and now I know the pros and cons of that idea. I'm thinking of trying this but first prepping it by sealing some of the openings with metal tape (actual duct tape) and possibly adding a small piece of expanded aluminum to the bottom for the twigs to rest on which I'm imaging would tuck inside the folded unit. I also will try using the opening in the back as a place to feed in more twigs. Thanks again for the video.
@@totallyfrozen sure, and that's a good point, but the cost of this one is very low AND I already have the materials for the mods on hand. Also, I just like messing around with stuff. :)
Cool test. I'm sure it will be useful for some campers who think they might want to buy this stove. Not practical for me though. I did like the way you started the fire with the flint and wool. Pretty cool. Cool video and test. Take care and have a great day.
No it's not terrible! The point here was to see if you can use it with wood ;) Cause I do have other ones that does it all. But if you use it would the gel cans etc it's a great stove indeed
I've been thinking about getting one of those folding stoves. I want something simple to take on a day hike to make some coffee and maybe something simple to eat. I guess I'm not up on these things yet but 10 minutes didn't see that bad to me? 🤔 Thanks for this review friend. I think I'll keep looking. 👍 ~ Kristine
It's a simple stove for sure... Will do the trick BUT with the fuel it takes 5-6 min which is good... Most Alcohol and gas stove will do it in 4 min... 10 is a bit too long but if you don't mind....There's no problem at all... It will work :)
@@paddle_hike I was looking at this one on Amazon ~ REDCAMP Wood Burning Camp Stove Folding Stainless Steel 304# Grill, Small Portable Backpacking Stove for Hiking Camping Survival BBQ
@@xandersadventures7527 For car camping ok.. But it's 1.1kg (it's heavy!) it's 2.5 lbs but it sure looks like a great stove. But most my stoves are under 5 oz (when backpacking).
@@paddle_hike Hmmmmm. 🤔 Well, right now we only day hike and Xander isn't willing to go too far so I'm not so worried about weight. Actually, I could stand to lose a few pounds of pandemic weight! 😳 Good info though to think about the weight. Thanks friend!
Gas burner inside or metho burner you can adjust I have both and are quick. Gas burner has a hose so it is a good fit. MB is from a one of those cheese pots has adjustment for flame with a kill lid wood if your desperate Ozzie hack. This rack is great for pans & etc. I love mine.I will make a video. Cheers
Hmm. I have always wanted to see one of these in action, but it seems like its more of a novelty than truly functional. It works, just not better than regular backpacking stoves. Thanks for the video.
Yep, it's pretty much that haha.... It works but there's faster on the market for sure. Works better with the fuel cans but still. Thanks for watching :)
Great review and demo, hard to believe that weighs 13 lbs. looks like a decent product, aside from the weight and slow boil time. How often do you need to add wood?
Salut , j'ai le même à la maison , je l'avais acheté il y a quelques années pour essayer , vu son prix abordable . J'ai été déçu de sa performance avec le combustible recommandé et je l'ai relayé au fond de mon armoire . J'ai quand même apprécié sa solidité comme tu le mentionnais . Je n'ai jamais penser à l'utiliser avec du bois par contre à la façon d'un Bushbox ou Firebox comme tu l'as fait , belle initiative ! Tu aurais dû tester avec une poêle pour voir si 2 oeufs bacon prenait aussi une éternité 🍳🥓 🙄 . Lorsqu'on est dans le bois par contre , le temps est moins important , 10 minutes à entretenir le feu devient un passe-temps agréable. Je me suis acheter depuis 2 UCO flatpack grill and firepit ( le petit et le gros ) et je ne jure que par ça maintenant pour mes randos à pieds et pour le canot camping . Merci de la revue !
Oui, les uco sont super bon... J'utilise majoritairement un petit bruleur à alcohol ou un bruleur à gas maintenant mais je voulais tester celui-ci vue son petit prix et surtout avec du bois. Effectivement, le temps est moin pire rendu dans le bois en relaxant. Merci :)
You could use a home made alchohol stove for yhis probably. Just a cat food can and rubbing alchol with holes punched around the can with a fhole puncher
@@paddle_hike Yeah it looked useful...! Problem is I've watched too many videos and some don't do a fair test. For example if out in the wild it was windy you would put up a windshield of sorts. Then because out of the box... one type of stove comes with a windshield and the other did not... I'm like sooo frustrated LOL...LOTS Thanx for the reply 🙂
Finally a real coghlans review.
I'd like to see you review all coghlans gear.
Ty
Thanks, Glad you enjoyed it! I could do more Reviews on Coghlan's gear for sure. Take care

Glad you enjoyed the test. Your modifications would make it better for sure...let me know how it went
@@paddle_hike will do!
There are tons of little wood burning camping stoves on the market. I’d shop around before buying this only to have to modify it.
@@totallyfrozen sure, and that's a good point, but the cost of this one is very low AND I already have the materials for the mods on hand. Also, I just like messing around with stuff. :)
Nifty gadget! Perfect for an emergency situation
Yea, that would be awesome for an emergency situation
Can you use a few charcoal chunks instead of sticks?
Yep, should work too
Cool test. I'm sure it will be useful for some campers who think they might want to buy this stove. Not practical for me though. I did like the way you started the fire with the flint and wool. Pretty cool. Cool video and test. Take care and have a great day.
Thanks buddy... no it's not one for you... well family car camping maybe but your regular trip, no. Thanks a lot for watching. Take care
Great test, we had looked at that awhile ago. But wasn't sure about it. I do enjoy it when you test products out. Thank you 🙂
Great! thanks a lot, I appreciate. Take care
I saw one at Dunham Sports. I was wondering if it could handle as a wood stove. Thanks for reviewing the stove.
You're welcome ! Glad i could help 😉
Thank you that was helpful!
Glad i could help 😊

Maybe a mountain bike camping stove?
For car camping, it’s virtually impossible to beat a Coleman stove, but this one isn’t terrible.

yes... many options works... even the gel cans. It's just less great with wood ;)
Not terrible
It's great
It is better than the Camp Heat/Sterno
it is .... works great with the main fuel...it's just not "super with wood ;)
Great review my friend, I need this stove . Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching my friend :) take care

I Made A Pellet Burner From A Canned Chicken Can. Drill Holes Pellet Size. My Best Results Are Using 50/50 Soft/Hardwood Pellet Mix!
Great idea! 😉
Great review and demo, hard to believe that weighs 13 lbs. looks like a decent product, aside from the weight and slow boil time. How often do you need to add wood?
It's 13.6 OZ (not LBS) ;) big difference. That's 0.9 lbs . I only added twice some woods so it ain't too much. Thanks a lot for watching :)

Works well with a trangia inside
Oh yea yea... alcohol stove, tablets etc works well... I wanted to see if it would work well with just wood.... :) but yes....Trangia works
You could use a home made alchohol stove for yhis probably. Just a cat food can and rubbing alchol with holes punched around the can with a fhole puncher
@@frank-s3k7m yes, alcohol, fuel etc works fine... The main test was... How effective is it with wood 😊
Thanks for sharing this review... I know more now
My pleasure
what about lining the inside with some aluminum foil and also placing a peice underneath
Except in the front to be able to add wood... but around and under could work yea 😊
Good toy:)...like Greetings!
Thank you 😉
Was that Belly button lint ? Lol
2 years collecting lol... dryer lint
It looked ideal until I watched your video.
it's a good one but it's not perfect.
@@paddle_hike Yeah it looked useful...!
Problem is I've watched too many videos and some don't do a fair test.
For example if out in the wild it was windy you would put up a windshield of sorts. Then because out of the box... one type of stove comes with a windshield and the other did not... I'm like sooo frustrated LOL...LOTS
Thanx for the reply 🙂
: ) 10 mins...
WARNING I Purchased this stove. the paint on the burners burned causing a dark toxic smoke. I threw it in the garbage.
Good to know. Never had that issue and used it a lot but it could be a bad batch etc.... thanks for the info
You Always do an initial burn-off outdoors with
Any type of camp stove or wood stove. smh
