Lineslife Camping Rocket Stove Wood Burning Portable for Cooking, Outdoor Camping Wood Stove with Carrying Bag for Backpacking Emergency RV Survival, Versatility of Fuel, Black Round Single Door

Impressed with the manufacturing, very well made-very solid, very sturdy, very robust. Doors work well, seal very well. Cast iron top is large enough for a 12 pan or dutch oven. Pictures are 12" pan and 10" dutch oven. Equally robust some heat retention will be good and designed in such a manner as to direct the heat outwardly when you're cooking. Cast grate is attached with screws. If they aren't stainless already I may replace them with stainless steel. I will use this while camping in my RV or for cooking on a cool night, or if the power is out or anytime a small meal is needed to be made outside. This a IDEAL for an emergency preparedness purchase if you need an efficient cooking devise.One of the reasons I bought this stove was because of the weight. Some of the others only weigh 10lbs. I think those would be less efficient and the materials not as robust.So... I did not buy this for back packing. You are not going 'back packing' with this, weighs way too much for that. Could you bring this along for a picnic? Sure, absolutely. Has a very nice bag to carry it in with two straps, and a Velcro sealed pouch for utensils.My scale says it weighs 17.5 lbs/7.94 kg. Imagine this oven and a dutch oven in a pack... nope. Now if your back packing with mules or pack horse ...maybe, but there are still better options. This is a stove made of steel, cast iron, stainless steel and refractory of some sort.

I haven’t tried this thing yet, because I wanted it for camping or power outages. Even so, I feel comfortable using this when the need arises. It appears very sturdy & weighs more than other similar Rocket Stoves that I also checked out. I consider that a safety feature, as the extra weight should be more stable & not as likely to tip over. I also like the versatility of the types of fuel that can be used, with little effort. So, fuel sources should be easy to find, & easy to incorporate & use. Lastly it has a carrying case & is easy to store. I’m satisfied. Thank you very much.

Yeah. I have to use it outside but it’s like having a mini wood burning stove that fits in a really nice tote bag! This is great for emergency heating up what won’t fit on the grill also. Can use coals, wood, leaves, etc. It really does have a stone in the bottom to burn the wood and catch the ashes. And having the silver lift to hold let’s say a branch burning in place without worry is wonderful. Get something cause propane is too darn heavy to drag with you for every occasion! Besides the top is like a real burner on a gas stove so your pots/pans will sit perfectly without sliding off! Love this thing!

I have not used this due to rainy weather and no dry wood. However the order came as described. It is well made and packaged well. Stay tuned, so far no regrets.

Did a quick heating test using the rocket stove. Started fire and let heat for 10 minutes before testing performance. Following the warm up, poured 1 liter of water into a large pot (covered) and put on lighted burner. Starting water temperature was 63 F, air temperature 53 F. Time to boiling was 7 minutes 29 seconds with an estimated consumption of ~200 grams of dry hickory sticks. I calculate this to mean the burner was generating 4500 BTU assuming 70% heat transfer to the water.Note, while easily portable, this stove is better suited for backyard or car camping, its too heavy to haul in a backpack. Also, very dry wood is essential for good performance.

Just the addition my EcoZoom stove needed!!!

The media could not be loaded. Preparamos en esta estufa lo que en Colombia llamamos sancocho de gallina criolla. Usamos un horno holandés qué básicamente es una olla de hierro colado qué funciona muy bien con este tipo de estufas por sus características para la conducción y retención del calor y el resultado fue excelente. El consumo de leña seca estuvo alrededor de 1 Kg/hora de funcionamiento continuo, lo que significa una combustión muy eficiente, con una mínima,casi imperceptible emisión de humo; este se produce principalmente al iniciar el fuego, después que la estufa se calienta desparece casi por completo. Es necesario retirar periódicamente las cenizas de la parte inferior durante su funcionamiento, para mantener una buena entrada de aire y de esta manera lograr una excelente combustión.Definivamente muy satisfechos con el producto, se aprecia calidad, atención y cuidado en los detalles de su elaboración, no se le va a a dar un uso continuo, así que esperamos que se pueda disfrutar de sus beneficios por muchos años.

Did lite on first try. Burns very hot. When I tried to measure temperature of the fire chamber using a infra-red thermometer, it gave "Hi" reading!! The only problem I have is, the outside also gets hot. After almost 45 minutes, the outside of the stove was reading 170F. Due to this, you need to set this up on a heat proof surface like ceramic tile or a cinder block. Can not just use it on a picnic table.
