The pot stand is designed to work with a round bottom wok as well as 10 inch and larger pots and pans. That's the reason for the upward curve on the inner part of the supports.
This one is awesome for car camping! I have even taken it on short backpack trips when I want to cook eggs, bacon and pancakes!! I LOVE it!! For smaller pots, I have a small square stainless campfire grid I place on top of the pot legs in their stretched out mode and it heats up a 750 or 1000 in no time at all ! Great review Ernie!!
With an adapter could hook up a Coleman green canister for longer cooking. I see an emergency contingency with the stove when powers out. Or just on a picnic for the brats 😊. Think I will add to my home emergency kit this way I wouldn’t have to break out the Coleman duel fuel stove with stansport adapter. The smaller stoves I have will not support larger or heavier pots. Yeppers I can see potential with one. Thanks my god send guru of reviews. Still my go to guy on gear review. Thanks again and LOTS SEMPER FI
The lugs that cause the pot holders to fold in may be a deliberate design feature. If you are using a wok the pot stands will come up to meet the wok and hold is securely. Remembering that a lot of Chinese cooking is done over a very large flame, using a wok, 15000btu and post stands that move make sense for a Chinese product.
I think it's a great stove, and in the camping world, it definitely has its place. it's not for me to use while camping, but it would come in handy in other situations . Dwayne
Good looking stove, but, I would give a redesign to the folding pot supports. Where they pivot for folding I would put a wing nut and the supports themselves could be slotted so you can you can move them in for smaller pots and out for larger pots or fry pans. The wing nuts could be used to keep the pot supports from folding.
Fire Maple makes a 12 inch "grill pan" (as they call it), which is basically a large round griddle. I got it for use on a different propane grill, but I believe that it was designed for use with this stove.
looks like a great stove for emergency use at home. and not too bad of a price either. i wonder how it would fry eggs and sausage. it looks like it would work good with the Stanley Adventure camp cook sets.
Similar handy design to my Kovea camp stove. The only negative, like the Kovea, is the piezo on the leg, which is a disaster if you have sandy or dusty ground, it’ll jam up in no time.
Hey Ernie, was wondering if you knew about the solid fuel stove made by Flat Cat Gear? It’s called the Epicurean Stainless Steel Stove and it claims it can make an edit last for 60 minutes.
I have seen this advertised and I have passed it by as being a bit too limited in its use. To have such a big stove without a windshield of any kind is a bit of a negative, and when camping I want maximum versatility and efficiency. For the size and money, might as well go with a trangia gas version.
Love it but I think it is a little bit too strong for small disposable gas canisters. I would have preferred it to hook to refillable gas tanks. Great for tailgating.
I have the Bulin 6800W stove and it has almost all of the advantages of the above stove, is somewhat lighter, and handles small pots and even cups. I think it is superior to this stove and was somewhat cheaper.
That stove is clearly not for backpacking or even day hiking. It is only for car camping or emergency home use. For me, if I am going car camping I am just going to take a traditional Coleman two burner propane stove. Why limit yourself to just one burner if you are car camping? So this stove just wouldn’t have a clear fit for me.
A waste of money, design features are horrendous and just look at this thing, a total waste of material and the cost is ridiculous. I saw this last year...another failure from China.

Flat bottomed pots make the world go round

My thought exactly was using a grid too so good to hear your thoughts. I like it as well. Bushyboy Oz
Looks like a tailgate stove at a south carolina game to me! Hot braised chicken wings, oh yeah! Thanks for the demo.
I'll bring my own plate..name a time!! Lol
As always sir, I enjoy your videos. Keep it up!
I’m impressed. It’s a beast and perfect for camp cooking.
Yes it is!! But heavy..I love mine even if it is heavy

Nice! Will work well for big groups.
Thanks for the awesome video and review
I have one and have had it for about a year.And it works perfectly it fits a 10 inch fry pan great plus they also sell as a set , flat comal

Fire Maple offers a nice gridle to compliment this stove. Have yet to get a product from this company that isn't excellent.
An excellent stove, BUT as you said, not for hiking or backpacking. If I start canoeing or sea kayaking again, I'll buy one.

I'm waiting for mine to arrive...till then ...12 inch cast iron griddle

I love that style of case, what kind is it?
Good review, thanks for sharing, YAH bless !
Will it work with Propane as well as ISO Butane?
Similar handy design to my Kovea camp stove. The only negative, like the Kovea, is the piezo on the leg, which is a disaster if you have sandy or dusty ground, it’ll jam up in no time.
Just curious… do you plan to do a long-term field test of this?

Windshields can be had for a few dollars..amazon..tall or short
@@tracker5849 Sure.
Could cook a good steak in a frypan, or a stir-fry in a wok, as it has the heat control.
Lobster pot burner... maybe for car camping/tailgating, but certainly not for ultralight backpacking. 😃

What Gas?
Tbis is commically bulky. There are plenty of stoves with the same burner head without the ridiculous amount of extra metal.
Should be dual burner for that weight and size.
The stove dosnt work by osmosis how come you didnt show what type of fuel or are we suppose to already know?
Gonna go ahead and pull it out for you guys *unzips*.

Sir l have seen a review on a wood burning stove.
Good video, but I'll stick with my Firebox stove.
eh...
my Trangia Gas Insert ends up looking like this & is way more versatile
it can go in other stoves like the FireBox
Thanks Dr. Ernie for the review. This looks like a really nice stove for emergency backup or car camping, but at $85.00 think I will pass it by.
if it had air holes in the very centre it would burn better and hotter
That stove is clearly not for backpacking or even day hiking. It is only for car camping or emergency home use. For me, if I am going car camping I am just going to take a traditional Coleman two burner propane stove. Why limit yourself to just one burner if you are car camping? So this stove just wouldn’t have a clear fit for me.
Should be great for making moonshine and deep frying whole chickens or your every day backpacking 5 gallon pop :)
This stove had my interest until the limitations with the pot stand holders. They need a redesign.
Too many negatives in this stove to offset the positives.
I really don't like this stove at all Ernie
This stove is just dumb. At this point, carry a Coleman or other stove that is far cheaper than this firemaple junk
