You did a good demo of the Firebox, the grate that fits down into the Firebox also works well with charcoal on top of it, you can adjust it up or down as needed, again a good demonstration, no fuss just cook on the Firebox

Have you ever had any problems with the hinges freezing in the winter? One of their competitors who make a slot-together stove claims one of the advantages of their stove is no hinges as hinges freeze up during the winter. I have seen you use the stove a lot during the winter and you have never mentioned this as a problem, but was just wondering if you have ever had or heard of an issue.

A $60 hobo stove? C'mon man. The sales pitches, from all of these "survival" channels, are getting old. I'm sure you're a nice guy and all, but JC. Folks, go get yourself a pineapple can and a slightly smaller tomato sauce can from Walmart, a few stainless tent pegs, drill a few holes, and voila. The cans even nest, and you can fill them with food or tinder. Amazing.

Living Survival I don't need to make a video. There are about 8,000 videos about hobo stoves. I sincerely apologize for venting on your channel, but I'm currently subscribed to about 25 guys, that started out with really cool vids, with unique survival perspectives and hints, hacks or tricks, who have all succumbed to the Amazon kickback. All, offering very little of anything anymore, other than a sales pitch, and oddly enough picking up a degree of condescension along the way. I have been watching survival and prepping vids for well over 10 years. I just miss the good ole' days.
@livingsurvival7 жыл бұрын
I hear ya, no problem venting here. I don't delete comments like some others do. Firebox isn't available on Amazon and made in the USA. It's a good product. I've reviewed many good stoves and yep you can certainly make your own. My job to show what is out there though. Hopefully my audience can see that I put effort into researching products and show a mix of high quality items in all price ranges instead of accepting the hundreds of Amazon offers for products nobody has heard of. I've done a few random videos of things I thought were quality enough to showcase but I agree there are a lot of channels using Amazon crap for filler or for profit.
