Trail Designs Caldera Cone Stove

£27.00

This is a remarkable product, based around a tiny meths stove that weighs only 16g. In the past I’ve tried these and they’re rubbish, but the addition of the Caldera Cone transforms the performance by acting as a windshield, supporting the pan and funnelling the heat to the base of it. The Caldera Cone is designed to be used with ...

MSR Pocket Rocket

£30.00

The Pocket Rocket is ridiculously small and impossibly light, making it an extremely attractive camping stove for anyone who likes to travel with a minimal pack. It is very similar in this respect to some other stoves, but it beats these mainly because of the excellent price. Performance wise it is excellent, bringing a pan to the boil in just ...

Optimus Crux Lite

£40.00

At 74g this stove is extremely lightweight, and it’s also extremely compact. There are a few stoves that weigh almost the same as this one, but the Crux Lite just about has the edge when everything else is taken into account. Firstly it’s easy to assemble and use the stove – you just have to fold out the pan supports. ...

Primus Eta Express

£60.00

The Eta Express is the one-person version of the Eta Power stove, and both are superbly efficient thanks to their use of a heat exchanger on the base of the pan. In fact, the burner on the Eta Express is identical to the Primus Express with ignition unit, so it’s the pans that are key and they manage to deliver ...

SOTO Micro Regulator Stove 2011

£75.00

Clicking the ignition on the SOTO Micro Regulator Stove in the dark of our bothy, the first thing that struck us was the width of the flame that it generates, when running at full throttle. Canister stoves are light and deliver fast boil times but they don’t always sustain power output, because the gas in the canister cools as it’s ...
