    07:01 If you stack the wood nice and tight, standing it up vertically in the stove, you'll get a longer burn. That means you can cook up whatever you want without the constant hassle of refueling.

    The firebox especially the titanium version is the king 👑 of wood stoves 🤗

      Yup
      Titanium is great if you have the bucks...
      Stainless might have to do within a budget

    The Firebox can use wood, pellets, propane, sterno, solid fuel or charcoal. Not only do they have that baking system, there is an option for the Billy can to be a steamer and there is also a pizza stone and they’ve just come out with a rotisserie system. There is an upgrade to a leather case. Those hooked rods can also hang the grill grates on the side like a shelf to keep things warm. I haven’t seen a compact camp stove that is as versatile. I watched a video explaining the hole pattern on the side which had to do with the physics of the design, heat direction, etc. I’ve ben looking at camp stoves and reading reviews and I haven’t seen a stove that offers me the choices the Firebox does. At this point that is my number one contender as I won’t be hiking so I don’t need something light.

    Everyone always advertises those butane and propane stoves. This is the real deal. Not always gonna have corporate distributed gas canisters around in a survival/camp scenario. Much more realistic and useful for long term. Unlimited uses

    Kent, I didn’t know you before this video, but I have watched more and I have grown found of you. Anyway, I watched this one year ago, and you convinced me to try the picogrill. I actually got a really good knock-off from Amazon Japan called Huanbush, and I am overjoyed. Truly, thank you for showing me this kind of stove! I’d never have the cash for a real picogrill and got both 85 and 239 knock-offs for 30€, incl shipping AND some skewers for the bigger one. I am in love with these. Got a cheap titanium pot as well, and my wood stove cookset weighs less than some backpacker’s kits, And I do actual cooking with these! I’d buy you a pint if I could

    I’ve just found your channel . I loved watching your reviews, especially when you explained some of the drawbacks. Especially those needing a lot of fuel. Years ago in a moment of clarity, I bought the original firebox nano 1st generation ( the one without the tray) and it saved my bacon. I had no access to my bank account for 2 weeks and I was wild camping on a beach in Tenerife until my flight. I ran out of money and couldn’t buy gas for my burner. All I had was the Nano. Because I was on a beach, with other people camping nearby, there was no firewood available but the Nano ran on twigs! So I was able to cook my food and make coffee. I love that little thing. I still take it with me today. It folds up so small, you don’t even know you’re carrying it. I just wanted to big up the Nano. I also just subscribed to your channel because I like your style and your honest , proper reviews. Thanks for this.

    Great comparison Kent! Usefull information here, it has nicelly confirmed my opinion on chosing firebox as my go-to stoves, G2 is awesome, now the firebox freestyle is my favourite one, when i am all alone, as a weight reduction from the fact the G2 weights about a kilogram (I dont need the titanium ones, i thing the extra 0,5kg is nothing, I am not an UL hiker or something like that).

    Nice review. I like the gasifiers with less smoke. Handy if family members have asthma and such plus it is nice if doing any sort of "low presence" camping.

    • @tjk355
      @tjk355 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Exactly. The gasifier is perfect for a quick brew on a woodland walk. Undetectable once it's going.

    • @lapsedluddite3381
      @lapsedluddite3381 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Once you learn bow to load them properly, (vertically packed sticks and a top down burn) they smokelessly burn a long time. You can even use wood pellets for really long lasting fires (if you are car camping so the weight doesn't matter).

  • @walkerone9833
    @walkerone9833 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Have the gasifier stove for a few years now. It is very efficient. Like all the stoves you mentioned, you must control the fuel input to set the cooking temperature. Cooking on coals is the best way to cook but none of these are great at producing even cooking coals (wood fuel, sticks) to cook on without some modification...ie. limiting the size of the air holes in the coal tray w/ aluminum foil...for example. Using just one or two charcoal briquettes is an easy way to control heat w/o too much flame or on the flip side having the flames go out. Hot briquettes is an easy and lightweight way to reestablish a flame with no effort. This method keeps hot coals always available. For an indestructible stove, it's light weight and cost....still around $22. usd, this is an amazing stove which can be used with a Trangia stove, too. Much more than just a "boil water stove" imho. Thanks Andy

    • @jamesellsworth9673
      @jamesellsworth9673 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      THANKS FOR SHARING the charcoal hack. Using hardwood briquettes is the best way to control top and bottom heat on cast iron ovens as well.

      They have just made "lightweight" cast iron rectangular Dutch ovens that are ideal for baking (and anything else you would make in a full sized Dutch oven) they make baking easy. Not really something for backpacking trips, but perfect for car camping (or even home use, they're my new favourite bread pans)

    Hi great video, the cheap SS folding stove at 5.11, a simple mod is to remove the 2 centre hinge pins, make another 2 longer hinge (L shaped) pins from a metal coat hanger, drill 2 holes in the ash pan. push the pins through into the ash pan. Also cut some mesh / grill to a tight size to fit on top of the existing internal grill, the result is a very sturdy stove. EWM as you might have seen also reviewed a very cheap stove + table recently which you might want to take a look at. Cheers barneey

    For me, the bushbox seems the best choice by far. I own the XL titanium, and the only drawback is the price.
    The pico might be a fallback for emergencies, or as you said, you got it in the backpack all the time because it is so lightweight. GOOD!
    Anyway, cooking is more than fiddling a pan on a razorblade like clashing steel sheet. No way! My 4ct.

    I have one of the Chinese box stoves. Got it recently. Used it a handful of times with a kerosene jet coil burner inside (haven’t used it with wood yet). They do seem rickety. The top grate can be slid off if you aren’t careful moving the pot. Mine came completely wrapped in blue protective membrane, but the membrane was placed before they built the stove. So the membrane was under the rivets, latches, and hinges and was impossible to entirely removed before use. The stove works, but I really don’t like the top grate. It’s not fastened down in any way and just sits atop.
    I didn’t get any extra pins for the Trangia burner.
    My recommendation is to buy the stove because it’s cheap, but then modify it to suit you.

    Good comparison video, I have three wood burners so far, a SS angry eyes from onetigris which I really love, a SS gasification stove and my favorite is the boundless voyage gasification stove. The boundless voyage Ti folding stove is on the way and I'm guessing it will become my new favorite, addictive little stoves that are fun to use.

    Nice collection 🔥. Looking forward to some FireBox Baking videos. I’ve had my FireBox stove’s for a few years & picked up the 16 cm pot & bake set around Christmas time. Still haven’t tried it because it’s still very much winter here 🇨🇦. But I have tried the bread pans in the kitchen oven, tip bake with them at home a few times because they will stick. I did season the pans but still had trouble getting the bread out.

    that pico stove is interesting but I would be afraid of it breaking with how thin that metal is.
    Would also be pretty fun with that brew kit if you were stuck on a highway in the winter due to traffic or whatever and while everyone else is just stuck in their cars you get out set up a little wood stove and make yourself coffee.

    I believe it's the Bushcraft Essentials bushbox LF (Large folding) , not XF. The bushbox XL (steel version) is great, very robust, both are easy to set up and fold away, but the XL a bit heavy
    great review though.

    The pico is so light and puts out some serious heat. It’s hard to argue against it being the best backpacking UL stove. And I use one all the time. But if I’m in a canoe, boat or truck, the titanium firebox, the king of stoves, is my favorite. The most versatile stove on the market.

    I have one of those gasifiers, Ouhuhu branded but looks 100% the same you can use meths, twigs, solid fuel tabs, lots of options out the box but I've drilled through the ash pan to let me feed my gas stoves line through, using the gasifier as a windbreak and pot support for those times actual fire isn't a clever optiom.

      @@kentsurvivalgearreview586 I just finished my first burn, so a couple of things... getting the plastic off isn't as bad as people say but it does take a few minutes and spend a few minutes with a fine sanding block going over the edges because they are very sharp. I got my best results by establishing a good bed of coals before putting on the pot, then feeding in as thick a stick as I can through the side port. All in all a very well designed and very sturdy stove, I bought the stainless Fireant, but I will probably get the titanium one too because, well you know. :) Mikhail is a good guy to deal with btw, a lot of cheaper twig stoves are copies of the original Emberlit, but his stoves are worth the extra imo because the quality is so good.

    I was going to go for a Firebox but think I'll go for the Bushbox LF Titanium instead. My use is some light cooking while camping, so frying etc, and this looks great. I'll probably use it with a spirit burner a lot but then the possibility of using wood too is great.

    I was looking at the pyro mini cage, what I like about it, is it’s large enough to use decent size wood logs to keep it burning long term and enclosed with small vents.
    Not sure if anyone has used it but let me know how it performs.
