As soon as it arrived, I checked it out and loved it so much, I wanted to order another immediately. (But we were camping with 16 other people so there'd be plenty of stove tops so I didn't lol)It's brilliant because you can use any butane gas canister that can be ordered quite cheaply. We went through 2 gas canisters over the weekend but took 4 just in case.It's easy and quick to set up - literally takes seconds - and has an adjustable flame which goes from large to small - so we heated a great big pot of chilli for 15 people in no time at all, and it didn't burn the bottom because I could turn the flame down to simmer.

I have bought a second one of these for a present after a friend saw mine. I like the safety features where the cannister disengages from the unit internally when not in use, the firm latch to engage the cannister and the ignite switch. I would imagine though these may make if difficult for thse with less dexterity than me.My friend has also found that the electric cooker rings do not heat up quite enouggh for jam making but this howevernjust gets hat bit hotter.In terms of the length of tme the gas lasts, i use mine during our regular power cuts and have replaced the cannister twice a year on average, this is using the machine about once a month for several kettles of water each time and often heating soup etc so it's not too bad and reasonably cost effective.

There are loads of these types of grills around, this is one of the better examples I've used.We've been camping twice this summer and two of these grills have been used 2-3 time a day. The gas is cheap and available anywhere, most importantly it's safe too. Performance wise the gas get's tired quickly, so if you're wanting to boil a huge pan of water (or even a travel kettle) than you'll need a new cartridge, but for sizzling bacon and eggs or a burger etc it's ideal.To get the most our of this you'll need to think about where you're using it, a little bit of wind won't put the flames out but it will stop you pan / grill from getting hot! Find somewhere sheltered or put up a wind break (in the right place!)

These are great, I really like the design of these new type of gas cookers, they're nice and low and wide so they're much much much more stable than the old campling gaz style cookers that need anchoring.The operation is simple and loading a cartridge is really simple, there is a lever that locks the cartridge into place and when you want to remove it, it self seals with no gas escaping - briliant!It has an electric ignition, so, with the low stable design it really is a camping essential. It also comes with a hard case that is a great little bonus, ensuring the cooker will stay in good working order next time I need it.Very Happy and it came within the stated time so all good.I may even buy

I must say that I am well pleased with my purchase.Yes, the plastic container that holds it is flimsy but it does do the job.The unit itself works extremely well and the flame ignition works faultlessly.The only comment I'd make is that the entire stove unit gets extremely hot when used and it does take time to cool down. Burnt fingertips are all too easily obtained, however this was also a defect with the very much more expensive Camping Gaz unit I owned previously.Plus points are that it happily takes, safely and correctly, the readily (and cheaply) available Marksman butane cartridges and they give a reasonable life - about 1.5 to 2 hours when the stove is used at maximum heat.At the price

Absolutely no complaints here. Works exactly as expected. Only thing to point out is there is a notch on the top of the gas bottles which needs lining up before locking into place.Like the gas bottles these design of stoves are honestly all identical. Just in different colours and different stickers on them. Going for a more expensive one that is this design is just wasting money. You won't be getting a better product, they're all the same.Use your common sense, read the instructions properly. Practice setting it up and using it in the garden first. Doesn't matter if you go through a bottle of gas whilst your getting confident. The gas it cheap as chips too.

I just love this portable gas stove.I ordered it from amazon and received just a few days later.Its light, very portable and works extremely well, heats up anything very very fast...( much faster than a conventional kettle boils up water).Having owned this product for over a month now, I must say that i am very happy with this product as it is very good quality, i would recommend this particular model as it has good safety features, especially the gas can lock function.At the moment i have no issues with this product, brilliant simple effective and practical design !...5 stars :)Amazing products guys, thanks ;)max

Near identical to the Campingaz model, that costs twice the price, but this performs to exactly the same standard. I was amazed how well it performed, the canisters (not included) last longer than I imagined, and I managed to cook breakfast for 4, 3 times, on the same canister. The heat it produces is spot on, it's no compromise at all, I expected it to be half as efficient as my hob at home, but as far as I can tell, my bacon, sausage and egg cooked just as well, in the same sort of time. Highly recommended. Is there a flaw? Well the plastic case it comes in is useless, so I keep it in a re-usable carrier bag instead!

This stove was purchased as a cheap option until I could afford a bigger and fancier alternative. Used it for 2 camping trips, both with myself and 2 kids. It is fantastic!! After 10 full camping days, cooking at least 2 meals a day and brewing endless cups of tea, I have only used 3 canisters of gas and they are really cheap. I now have no intention of replacing this stove - bigger and fancier doesn't mean better. I would highly recommend this item to anyone who is looking for a stove. Will also be using it for picnics as it's so lightweight and easy to carry (it comes in a fantastic little carry case). Buy it!!

Bought this cooker for fishing,am not disappointed.Have used it twice,both times quite windy.not gale force,but enough to blow a flame out,not on this tho.Has a wind break close to the flame.Good and stable,I put it on its carry case.Easy to light,turn knob till it clicks,turn back to set flame.Easy gas can change,lift lever to release cannister,push lever down to insert gas can.If you store it in case with gas cannister still inserted,lever will be lifted by case to release gas cannister.Very powerful,I think very safe.This cooker is the same as the gaz cooker,basically just different color.

If you go camping or out for picnics then this product is a must have!! It's good quality, lightweight and portable in its carry case. Ideal for one pot cooking, frying or just boiling water to make a cuppa. It also comes in handy if you are experiencing a winter power cut as meals and drinks can still be made! We have had one for over 10 years but have recently bought a new one, not because the old one broke but because with the constant use our old one was looking a bit worse for wear. We can highly recommend this product and we wouldn't be without it!!

Great product. Nice and light and well made. The case is very neat and makes it easy to transport. The instructions for installing gas canisters were a little unclear and I ended up spraying gas all over it on my first attempt. Second try went fine though and it provides a great flame. It's nice and steady (especially compared to those awful little ones that balance on the canister, anyone who's tried to use those out and about will know the 'joy' of trying to make them not fall over) and it lights quickly and easy with the built in spark. Great product.

Bought two of these for my son to take to a festival, where they were really put through their paces, but still came back in one piece. Since then they have been camping, been used as a stand in when the BBQ collapsed and were extremely useful during several power cuts this winter. The gas bottles last well and I bought refills online easily. As these were a low cost item, I thought they would be a bit flimsy and would not last but they are well made, quite sturdy, really useful and I cannot praise them enough.

i bought this cooker for my husbands boat for boiling a kettle mostly and frying up a bit of bacon so he can knock up a bacon buttie.he is well pleased with it and says it is a great little cooker does the job perfectly and is easy to keep stowed away as it comes in its own plastic carrycase.gas bottle is easy to install, lights with one click every time,and the gas burner burns with two rows of flame so it heats up around the outside and the middle so boils a kettle nice and quick.would recomend this product.

This is a good simple to use product, but when I received mine part of the mechanism that locks the gas bottle into place was so badly bent it wouldn't lock. Only when I compared it to my brothers stove could I detect the problem, it was simple to rectify but should not have been supplied as it was. Not impressed! Its ok now but I was tempted to bin it at first it was so cheap it wasn't worth the hassle of returning it. But it does its job very well and I'm happy with it now.
