I own this stove and I’ve never had a problem with it. I bought an eight dollar adapter and can use the stove with the small green propane bottles too. Before I made a little bag for the stove, I just wrapped it up in a bandanna.

this stove as originally designed by campingaz was not meant to be a high-speed water boiler, it was designed for cooking real food in real cooking pots and pans. that's why it has a large burner head for good flame distribution and a pressure regulator so that it can maintain a low, steady heat over an extended amount of time so you don't burn the bacon.....

[@jeroboam4486]

I own the Campingaz one, it comes with a case but it's much more expensive (30€ I think). The problem with this brand, is that they have no idea about hikers, so everything they build is heavy. This thing is 2.5 times heavier than the other stoves and needs special canisters (the fixation isn't compatible with the rest).

Coleman bought out Camping Gaz about 5 or 6 years ago. I bought a Peak 1 to convert my old CG Bluet 270 Turbo to give it a new life so to speak. I took apart the Peak 1 seeing that there’s a blue knob just like my old CG stove. I laughed and put my Peak 1 back together and use it instead. It’s great for day hikes, river camping, and primitive camping in county/state/nat’l parks. MSR Pocket Rocket for the multi day hikes….

As someone(who prides himself in the food he cooks) who has done several multi day hikes the few ounces this weighs above something like a pocket rocket is easily recouped in ease of use and wide heat distribution. I have both stoves but carry this one when I go out camping or hunting just because of that large burner head and how great this little stove will simmer, out of all the stoves I have used this and the msr dragon fly feel the most like using a regular gas stove for flame control and use

[@alexanderweaver4838]

My first Coleman Peak One stove lasted 37 years and never failed until I took it on an overland camping trip this past January. I always keep back up stoves in my kitchen gear kit, a smaller BRS and a small Jetboil. I bought another Coleman Peak One and used the tiny camera bag I used for the first one. It's a dual pocket bag with the stove in one and a Bic lighter in the smaller pocket. The Peak One complements the larger Coleman camp stove. Weight nor boil time is ever a factor for me.

[@samhain9394]

Whats the larger Coleman camp stove you use? This one isn't labelled "Peak 1" anymore, it's boxed as (Classic) Backpacking with "Ultra Lightweight 6.7oz" below, and advertises to boil 1L in 4.3 mins and 10,000 BTU

[@CDNUTZ]

I bought an inexpensive stove it broke on day 3 of a 4 day hike. I bought this stove for the durability I do not care if it's a few ounces heavy it fits into my cup just fine for storage. I will take durability every time. I highly recommend this stove And I've been hiking and backpacking for over 30 years it truly comes down to durability.

I’ve had a Peak 1 stove for about 20 years. I 💗 it and it’s my no. 1 go to stove. It’s very wind resistant and I love the control. For high winds , I have an aluminum shield. It’s a bit heavy for some hiking trips, but I still prefer it over the pocket rocket because it’s so stable. I use a spare little drawstring bag for it. I could care less about how long it takes to boil a liter of water; I never boil that much water. I’ve even used it to cook an entire meal for 4 on it.

[@rickkaylor8554]

Just discovered your channel. Love it! I got this stove from Walmart at least 12 years ago for around $10. It has never let me down. Yeah its not the lightest but I like the flame control.

I've used it to cook many fish for lunch when I didn't have the time to do it at home and it always gave lunchtime a special feel to it, I used it once on a catch/cook and was impressed with how well it holds the pan. Sadly I lost mine on the way home because there was a hole in the bag. I'm definitely going to get another one😊

Something to remember about these kind of stoves is whether you just want to boil water or actually cook something! I have svea 123 I got in 1970 (10 bucks) and it still works like new.

I don't think I could used the green propane bottles on mine unless I get an adapter. Still Im happy with it.😊

[@ryanjofre]

It’s a good one because it’s a powerful, relatively efficient stove that’s cheap and and always available at Walmart! It’s to bulky and heavy for me but it’s always a recommendation for emergencies!! If you buy the readily available adapter you can run it on the cheap, standard 8oz butane canisters(little less than $3.00 a can) which is great for emergencies. If it came with a piezo igniter and a hard plastic case they would sell like hotcakes.

[@redoak3809]

These were on clearance at Target last week for $5 and change and I bought a few to give away. They don't have as high of an output as other stoves, but they work nicely and are pretty compact. The stove is not that robust as you state and feels very cheap, but seems durable enough. And, it works well with a nice variety of pot sizes. It probably takes 15 minutes to boil a couple cups. This works nicely with the Stanley Adventure set and I wouldn't choose to use with car camping, but would use for just day hiking and heating up some food or making hot chocolate. I don't think it needs a carrying case other than a $5 waterproof sack found at Wallyworld so it doesn't dirty the inside of your pack. Certainly more packasble and not too dangerous for the inside of your pack, such as the Primus Classic Camp Stove. For a budget offering it is a nice find, however, it doesn't replace an MSR Windpro or Pocket Rocket.

[@davidslate2005]

I do motorcycle camping. I use my Jetboil Zip as my primary stove. I do fancy dinners every other night and I carry this Coleman stove as my 2nd stove. It's very adjustable compared to my Jetboil. One will be cooking the main part and one will be cooking vegetables are some such. I've had zero problems with the Coleman.

[@STho205]

Yep. I use the little jetstove blowtorch for motocamping...but they are great boilers but horrible cookers. They are lava hot in one spot. A great egg and bacon burner. This peak 1 is the burner on a standard Coleman 1lb stove, reduced to the folding style. I considered it but I decided to adapt a tuna can for the pocket rocket as a slower burner. That works great and fits in my coffee cup. Turns that jet into a spread burner to do light fluffy eggs in a 50 cent folding frypan.

I have two, after liking the first one so much. Note that they can run on propane by buying the msr to propane pressure converter for 10 bucks on Amazon. Combined with the 1 lb refiller nozzle, filling from a 20 pounder, these things are next to free to operate. Cooking on large pans the knob overheats and if left long enough could melt. I use aluminum foil to shield the knob. You'll figure the way. Good stuff. Thanks for the review.

[@timbo4374]

It looks like a great deal for, as you mentioned, car camping. I agree that it should come with some kind of case, even if it was just a cheap bag with a draw string. Something like that wouldn't drive the cost up much, and although still cheap, would be better than just throwing it in your pack with no cover at all. Still, all in all, a decent little bargain stove.

[@hypo345]

Reminds me of the Campingaz twister but that only works with Campingaz proprietary gas canisters.

[@MPiKMS72]

If you take the red plastic off you'll see it actually is a Campingaz stove underneath, it even has the characteristic Campingsz blue knob under the black knob. The metal body even has the same markings. Coleman bought Campingaz in 1996 and they both are under the same company now. The very first of these Colemans even came in packaging that said Made in France. Now they're China.

[@raymondward1009]

I've got one of these stoves, I used a tall Solo Stove Pot 1800 witch is almost 2 liters and it did not take 10 mins to boil water that I used strait from an Aquafina water-bottle. 3-4 mins tops I'm sure, I was out doors at a camp-site as well in early spring, not a hot day at all in fact it got down to 47 degrees that night. The size and composition of the pot you are using in this test is likely why it took so long but it also possible you got a defective unit.

[@uralbob1]

Even wind resistant stoves benefit from a windbreaker. I used one even in relatively windless condition w/my MSR International. I think windbreakers add to overall efficiency even in mild, breezy conditions.

[@fallyn2920]

i've had one for over 10 years. This product is old and sold under the Campingaz brand for family camping equiptment. Here they take a bayonet lock style canister. I actually grew to dislike it for it's bulk and cheap feel, but hey it's campingaz... never expect too much from that brand though it's usually decent enough. Funny to see it rebranded after all this time. Then again Coleman is the mother company to Campingaz these days.

I have the original CampingGaz version of this stove that I bought in, I dunno, '04 or 05 when the CG canisters were still common in the US and I have used it backpacking. There is no way it puts out 10,000 BTUs. The early '80s Coleman Peak 1 model 400 that you have in other videos (that I have two of, as well as its predecessor the 576 and the last Xponent 442) is rated at about 7500, which I believe, and it's at least as powerful as this one if not more so. And you're right about this one not doing well in the wind; it absolutely eats fuel in the wind. Claiming to boil as fast as it does, which is faster than an MSR XGK which I also have, is outright comedy.

Thanks for this review. I was thinking about getting this and so was looking at the for these reviews Quick 2 question: 1. I currently have the AOTU stove I got on Amazon and it's been good enough for a year now for heating soups and boiling water. However, the center concentrated burner create a hotspot where I don't dare get any "cream of" type soup, or any thing else with any "body" to it, least it burn on to the bottom of my cooking cup-pot. The only way to avoid that is to pretty much stir It constantly. So do you think this burner spread the heat around enough to mitigate some of that kind of issue? 2. What's the purpose of that silver metal above the flame control knob? It seems like it would be getting in the way or you could cut your fingers on it.

If the desire is to fairly judge the efficiency of different stoves you may want to consider doing tests with the following conditions: 1. Same starting temperature of water. 2. The exact same pot. 3. The same amount of water. 3. The same ambient temperature, altitude and wind conditions. Those variables, especially water temp and pot size, will have a rather large impact on the results. Just sayin'. Of course, if the aim is to evaluate the manufacturers claims using their stated variable values that's different. For the viewer, though, most of us are probably more interested in how the product fairs against others rather than if the manufacturer's claims are accurate. I don't really care what the box says, just if the stove is better than others. So, standardized testing = good IMO.

Ernie, bear in mind that MSR was started by Seattle mountaineers after two guys died of dehydration while snowed in on Mt. Rainier. At that time (1970?) there were no stoves capable of melting sufficient snow in cold weather. The Svea and Optimus stoves pretty much ruled the market. The Bluet Camping Gaz stoves were rare in the US, and even less powerful. MSR's roots still hold true.

[@marzsit9833]

not exactly true, there were stoves available in 1969 that were capable of melting snow at altitude in extreme cold but they were not lightweight. the 2 climbers that died on rainier chose not to carry a stove with them because they were doing a difficult route and didn't think they would get caught in bad weather. larry penberthy knew them, as mountain climbing was a pretty exclusive activity back then and started msr at first to do research into mountain sickness, then developed the model 9 stove to solve the problem of not having a lightweight stove that could melt snow at altitude in extreme cold.
