Iwatani Cassette Feu Butane VA-30 Camp Stove, one, Black

We got this gas stove because I wanted a backup for power outages and to take with us when we go camping. I tried it out and I liked it so much that I now use it for most of my stovetop cooking because it’s so easy to adjust the temperature from slightly warm to blazing hot, it’s very powerful and it heats up instantaneous; it’s so convenient not to have to wait for a coil to heat up. It’s not the cheapest option out there but it is well made and well worth the money. The warming plate underneath the canister is ingenious, I finished the first fuel canister this week and there wasn’t a drop of unused butane left in the bottle, very impressive! I used a Coleman butane canister I bought at Walmart while I awaited delivery of the proprietary Iwatani butane canisters. The Coleman canister fits and works great, it also costs quite a bit less, but I must add the flame from the Iwatani canister seems to be a bit cleaner and more consistent. You can decide based on your priorities and preferences which you want to use.

This is a big improvement over the basic versions of butane stoves. Happy with the purchase.

Comes in a nice case, is build very sturdy and has a nice fit and finish to it. I love the bottle warmer it has so that it keeps consistent heat and power and entirely empties the can of butane. It's a little pricey but when you compare it to other brands that output 12000 BTU and have the fuel warmer (they call it the heat panel system) it is not really anymore costly. It is listed as burning for 70 minutes at full power but I have got about 2 and a half hours of burn time at the low heat output when I use it for Korean BBQ. Very efficient and easy to clean and assemble/disassemble.

sehr solide Kostruktion, alles passt, keine billige Plastik sehr schöne Edelstahlausfürung in gewohnter japanischer Top- Qualität hervorragende Heizleistung. ein sehr empfehlenswetes Gerät.

My daughter is going to do a couple week long camping trip on her own and can't take many things because her car is pretty small. This was a nice compact camp stove. It seems to work the same as the large stoves when it comes to temperature, and durability. There isn't an odor since it's butane and not propane.
