For example, we like the Eureka Ignite Plus because it features a wide 23-inch cooking surface that can accommodate medium to large pots side by side. Smaller units, like the Coleman Triton, can only fit two 10-inch pans. If you regularly use larger pots or pans, it’s worth digging into this spec closely before making a purchase (most manufacturers and retails will publish the dimensions). Alternatively, if your stove will be your first purchase, make sure the cookware you buy will fit on your unit’s cook surface. For one, a stronger flame will allow you to cook more food faster—you can trim minutes off your time when boiling a large pot of water.
If conserving fuel (and saving money!) matters more than a quick boil time, this could be an ideal stove for you. Each time, we packed the camp stoves in their original boxes for shipping. This test wasn’t perfect, but the rough rides in the back of a mail truck revealed weaknesses in the Everest’s design. There are numerous factors to consider when you’re shopping for a camping stove. Choose this based on the type of camping and camp cooking you’re going to do.
Built well with solid materials, this stove doesn’t need to be delicately handled. This is the Genuine Manufacturer Sourced replacement check valve that is designed for specific Coleman Lanterns and Stoves. The check valve and air stem are both made of brass and come together when ordered.
The size is large enough to hold both a 10in pan and a 12in pan at the same time, making it great for cooking an entire meal for 2 or more. The adjustable burners can be difficult to dial to the desired heat. The blue propane flames can be difficult to see to gauge the size and temperature. We often use the sound of the burner to determine what setting we’re on. The louder the “jet engine” sound of the burner, the higher the flame.

Add to that the star feature of this stove — cast iron pot supports and two cast iron attachments — and you’ve got a winner. Wirecutter is the product recommendation service from The New York Times. Our journalists combine independent research with (occasionally) over-the-top testing so you can make quick and confident buying decisions. Whether it’s finding great products or discovering helpful advice, we’ll help you get it right (the first time). The rugged exterior of the Coleman Classic allows the stove to be thrown around when you’re packing for your trip.
To perform this test, we consulted with Lesley Stockton, senior staff writer and guru on Wirecutter’s kitchen team, who came up with an order for soft scrambled eggs from Kitchn. Ideally, on a decent home stove, these eggs should cook for 10 to 15 minutes on the lowest possible heat. We brought them to the beach to see how they would work in sustained winds. We also brought them to a public park to cook up a full breakfast of pancakes, bacon, eggs, and coffee. Initially, to get a baseline for each stove’s general performance, we focused on how quickly they could boil water (similar to the process of many of the sites listed above).

This is a genuine OEM Coleman pump cup used with gas lanterns. The pump plunger fits through the hole in this pump cup, which then fits inside the pump itself. The pump cup is designed to be coated in Pump Lube so that it can effectively create a seal inside the pump, preventing air leaks. Take your
