Handy Outdoor Portable Kerosene Stove 10 Wicks Camping Picnic Burner Furnace

Back in 1991 while I was in the Gulf War our unit bought a few of these for our platoons and it worked great! You can use diesel fuel, regular kerosine or lamp oil, they all work in this thing. The wick will last quite a while but if you plan to use it for daily cooking, sourcing some replacement wicks would be wise. One option is to use the old school mop strands as wicks or just buy wick sets found here on Amazon.

Arrive damage. Piece of junk. It’s not safe to use. Made of aluminum and it’s easily bend. Seller from China doesn’t take pride in shipping the product to customer. It’s similar junk quality you get from TEMU.

The media could not be loaded.  Don’t use this in the house.Sum up: set it up in a base camp, fill it at destination, don’t move it, A+++. Yeah it’s cheap piece of junk but it works!!! And it was under$20! It stinks! Portability is problematic unless drained.Pros: This would be great to slow cook a meal while camping at a base camp. It sips kerosene so it would save $$$ in propane. It is faster to heat water than my electric kitchen stove. It is so simple! and you aren’t tweeking, cleaning jets, pumping or disposing of canisters into landfills. It cools very quickly once extinguished so packing away isn’t delayed waiting for it to cool off. It’s sturdy enough to handle a large 4 quart pot.Cons: Once you put kerosene in it, you can’t move it without kerosene splashing out. The reservoir is sealed except for the edge that meets the base plate. Any sloshing from movement will have fuel dripping. That’s Dangerous if lit!!! I’m going to try to seal it. The base plate gets warm to touch but not hot. It stinks! If used inside, ventilate!!! I set it up in front of an exhaust fan and the house still stunk of raw kerosene. It’s not a sealed tank. Imagine eight hurricane lamps burning kerosene. It stinks. I haven’t figured out how I’m going to drain it to pack it away without spillage everywhere.It excels at it’s strengths but it’s not the answer to every situation. But hey! $20! What did you expect?

Works for an emergency but burns wicks pretty fast, would not buy again. Tried several types of fuel with the same results, burnt wicks. it will boil a quart of water in about 35min.

ARRIVED IN LITTLE PLASTIC BAG WITH OLD BEAT UP BOX BENT IN A NUMBER OF PLACES, YOU WOULD NEVER WANT TO PUT FUEL IN IT WOULD LEAK , TOTAL FIRE HAZARD ! I WILL KEEP MINE BECAUSE I AM USING IT FOR A EXPERIMENT. NOT A COOK STOVE THEN I WILL THROW IT AWAY, WOULD NEVER HAVE GOTTEN IT IF I HAD KNOWN HOW POORLY MADE IT IS . JUNK, JUNK, JUNK !

The instructions were vague at best and said for household or camping use. The 'stove' is made out of flimsy sheet metal and is NOT at all like a Kerosene lantern; no sealed tank, more like a bowl ! I bought this for an emergency since we have frequent power outages and I NEED my coffee. If you want a stove for camping I would suggest a Colman with propane/ butane tank! I didn't want to set it up because the fuel would splash around when moved so I don't know how this works; I will update when I have a power outage.

Awesome product
