Hallo zusammen,ich habe mir den Outdoor-Kocher Bushbox zugelegt und bin sehr, sehr zufrieden mit meiner Wahl.Da ich viel in der Natur unterwegs bin und den Outdoor-Kocher auf längeren Touren benutze (1 - 2 Personen),sind für mich folgende Punkte entscheidend:- Zum einen ist er sehr kompakt- Zum anderen ist er sehr leicht- Er ist intuitiv zusammen zubauen- Wird mit einem Beutel geliefert- Bei richtigem Untergrund steht er solide- Verschieden anwendbare BrennstoffeZu der Benutzung: Hierzu kann ich euch nur meine zwei Arten der Benutzung schildern.1. Im Zusammenhang mit einem Spiritusbrenner (Trangia):Ich habe in diesem Fall den Trangia einfach in die Bushbox gestellt und mit Brennspiritus gefüllt.Der Abstand zum darauf liegenden Kochgeschirr ist meiner Meinung nach Perfekt.(400ml Suppe ist in 10 - 11 Min. erhitzt, bei 10 Grad Außentemperatur)2. Brennholz/Äste:Hierzu habe ich die Bushbox mit Ästen gefüllt.Durch das untere Sieb fällt nur die Asche auf das Auffangblech darunter.Dies verhindert, dass die heiße Asche auf den Boden fällt. (Find ich jetzt persönlich nicht schlecht,da man schonmal nach einem anstrengenden Tag, vom nostalgischen Knistern des Holzes einschlummern kann undda wäre es dann besser, wenn das Feuer bleibt wo es ist. [eigene Erfahrung])Der Abstand zum Kochgeschirr ist ähnlich wie mit dem Spiritusbrenner, jedoch abhängig von der Menge der Äste,mit denen man den kleinen füttert. Das Brennholz brennt zudem nicht so gleichmäßig runter wie der Brennspiritus,erhitzt jedoch in meinem Fall eine Suppe in etwa der gleichen Zeit.(400ml Suppe ist in 16 - 17Min erhitzt, bei 10 Grad Außentemperatur und leichtem Wind)Also unterm Strich ist mein Fazit: Klein aber fein und auf jeden Fall weiter zu empfehlen,vorweggenommen für Leute mit gleichen oder ähnlichen Ansprüchen.

Hornillo muy practico y compacto, me gusta su tamaño, es ideal, ni muy grande ni muy pequeño, tiene muy buen comportamiento, pero le falta un pequeño recipiente para usar combustibles líquidos, pero aun así es tremendo.

An excellent little stove well made easy to put together and take apart once you reread the other reviews on hereYou can burn wood in this stove but i find it really shines when used with an alcohol stove you can safely use it without the front piece if you use the trivet's on the topI also have the XL which is a great wood stove this has proved to be a very useful backup for a quick cuppa on route and also for the early morning cuppa when you don't feel like lighting a fire, you will feel far more like lighting a fire and getting breakfast cooking after that first cupHope this helps DaiTime for a quick updateDamp night last night everything was damp not wet but dampDecided to try this little stove with wood pellets I had just about a mug full left and a splash of alcohol the mug full of pellets just about filled the stove the alcohol was just enough to get it goingKettle on first two mugs of water was heated to a simmer for coffeeThen went on the baconBacon cooked on went the eggs all cooked without putting anything else on the stoveBurn time was about 25 minutes before the flames died downThe only downside was that after the flames died the stove turned a bit smokey unlike the XL that burns the coals cleanlyAll in I have to say that i am more than happy with this little stove along with the XLBoth stoves burn with what i call a cooking flame a nice soft flame that's not to hot to cook with all the woodgas stoves that i have tried burn too hot to cook with great for boiling water but useless for cookingAs I said before i hope that this helps Dai

I'm a pretty big fan of wood stoves. Starting a fire in the woods is always a chore for me since I don't have the skills to really get a fire going without a little help.But this little guy makes starting a fire using a magnesium fire starter fairly simple.Compared to the Emberlit Titanium mini, this wood stove is a little heavier and a little smaller. It has a few features enhancements over the emberlit mini, with features more commonly seen in larger devices.The first is that there are two base plates. one is the ash pan and one holds the wood. the one for holding the wood has holes in it to draw air from below and also to drop ashes to the ash pan.This is very helpful as a buildup of ash decreases air flow to embers and fuel, which reduces heat. With this unit, a few taps on the stove shakes ash loose so it drops to the ash pan.Interestingly, this unit also adds the ability to raise the fuel plate.You can notice from the image that this device is basically 4 walls, one of which has a larger opening. The fuel plate has two rims, or wings, or flaps, if you will. and these are designed to normally slot into two slits built into two of the walls. but the fuel plate can actually rest on the base of that larger opening as well, bringing the fuel a lot higher and closer to the upper rim. Great innovation.When the base plate is on the lower position, you can easily fit an alcohol stove in there as well, so this unit, combined with a trangia alcohol stove and a bottle of denatured alcohol, makes for a very versatile cooking setup. Ideal for a weekend jaunt alone when the weather isn't too cold.Tougher campers could probably make due with just this in colder weather, but for me, winter camping requires a lot more heat and a lot more cooking efficiency, so I bring a gas canister stove or multi-fuel stove alone with a larger wood stove to help boil water faster, and act as a tiny campfire.All in all, I would say, from a feature, durability, and flexibility perspective, this is my new favorite miniature wood stove.Great job Bushbox. Awesome piece of gear.

Based on excellent reviews, I bought this stove and haven't been disappointed. Shipping time from Germany was only six days. I bought an MSR Stowaway 1100 ml pot specifically to use with the stove. The stove packs flat and easily fits in the pot, along with my condiments, utensils, firestarting gear and dishwashing soap.The constuction of the stove is first rate. It is easy to put together and take apart. When assembled, it is solid and makes a good potstand, even for a relatively large pot.With an aluminum foil windscreen, the stove performs well, even in moderate wind. These hobo stoves usually work best if one takes the time to lay a fire, instead of just throwing in sticks. This one is no exception. The wood is nearly, but not entirely, burned to ash, which is very good for a stove like this. The ash plate on the bottom is a nice touch, rarely found in hobo stoves. With the pot I use, it is easy to feed wood through the front port while cooking. If you have fuel prepared and ready, this stove is easy to cook on. It isn't just for boiling water.The stove performs adequately with a Trangia spirit burner, but that configuration obviously is an afterthought. If the Bushcraft Essentials directions are followed, the front panel is replaced before using the burner. This makes it difficult to access the burner and impossible to use the burner simmer ring. If you want to put the burner out instead of letting it burn out, you have to remove the trivet bars and drop the closed simmer ring (or something) down into the stove. That's awkward. The problem is solved by leaving the front panel off and relying on the trivet bars to provide structural integrity to the stove.On the other hand, the stove works very well with fuel tablets. With the fire plate in the upper position, it is easy to slide the tabs into the stove and light them through the front port. With a windscreen in moderate wind, I found that I could reliably bring one cup of water to a low boil with one Coghlan's tablet in eight to nine minutes. Three Coghlan's tablets, placed on edge next to each other are sufficient to boil three cups of water, enough for a cup of hot tea and a hydrated meal. I intend to carry tablets forbackup fuel.In summary, I am pleased with the quality construction of the stove, the utility of it, and the very reasonable price.

Ho provato il fornelletto non appena è arrivato per preparare un caffè. Molto rapido il montaggio, immediata l'accensione con un piccolo pezzo di cotone: si crea subito un ottimo tiraggio e la fiamma arde con piacere; tenetevi vicino piccoli legnetti con cui alimentare costantemente il fuoco, poichè sviluppa molto calore e la legna brucia rapidamente. Dal momento dell'accensione a quello in cui ho versato il caffè nella tazza sono passati dieci minuti, ed il caffè era buonissimo, a dimostrazione che il fornelletto ha lavorato in modo eccezionale. Curato in ogni dettaglio risulta molto versatile: il "cassettino" per la cenere isola perfettamente il braciere dal suolo; i due braccetti di metallo, che fanno da supporto per la pentola, possono essere disposti a due diverse altezze: rialzati rispetto ai bordi del fornello o allo stesso livello. Nel primo caso consentono di utilizzare pentolini più larghi del nostro fornelletto che, altrimenti, andrebbero a tapparne l'imboccatura impedendo il tiraggio dell' aria e facendo abbassare la fiamma; nel secondo caso sono comodissimi per appoggiare tazze più piccole mantenendole stabili.Può essere utilizzato in combinazione ad un trangia, oppure per bruciare delle tavolette di esbit: in quest' ultimo caso si può innalzare il livello del braciere, in modo che la fiamma generata dall'esbit raggiunga il pentolino. Inoltre è predisposto per poter utilizzare una griglia (venduta separatamente)...Dimenticavo di dire che una volta montato risulta molto stabile, quando accendete il fuoco appoggiatelo comunque sopra un sasso bello largo, dato che la cenere che si accumula sul piatto in basso, se presente in grande quantità, può cadere dai bordi finendo a terra. Lo smontaggio è rapido: le pareti sono mantenute solidali fra loro da piccoli uncini di sicurezza che bisogna sganciare prima di "sfilare" le varie parti.Grande cortesia e disponibilità del venditore. Riassumendo: piccolo, leggero, ottimo per cucinare, rapido nel portare all' ebollizione una discreta quantità d'acqua e progettato con intelligenza. Consigliato! Ciao a tutti!
