What customers say about "Key Specs"

Stansport 212 Outfitter Series Burner Propane Stove

TWO 25K BTU burners that can boil 2 quarts of water in only a few minutes.
The width of the stove can fit 10" & 14" pots or pans side by side. In a pinch, you can even flip down the side wings to accommodate large pots.
Cranks out plenty of heat and cooks very fast.
It's powerful and boils water fast, and is overall good for the range of different stove uses from making toast to eggs to pasta etc.
The burners are about 4.5" in diameter. As such, my 3.5" diameter backpacking cup did not boil since the flame is larger than the cup. Be sure to use a pot/pan with a larger size bottom to take advantage of the large burners.

Camp Chef Everest 2 Burner Stove

Wide burner distributes heat for less hot spots
The burners look big and well designed.
This stove is way more powerful and will boil water much faster. If using a smallish pan you really need to turn the burner down super low to effectively not over-heat the surface (or the pan handle). This stove is a beast.
Tons of cooking power. Also, no problems with a low simmer. Wide range of flame intensity.
Extra width provides adequate space for two full size pots/pans used simultaneously
Right burner had a fuel leak which caused frequent blowouts.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"

Camp Chef Everest 2 Burner Stove

This is twice that of the competitors in the same compact size. There are now two plastic latches (see pictures) and they seem sturdy.
Knocking just one star because besides all that, works great, seems decently built enough while still maintaining a lighter weight.
Overall the unit is lightly constructed which keeps weight down, but I wonder how long it will stand up to camping.
The lid is light weight sheet metal, will get dinged up plenty with use but the trade off for light weight is a little flimsiness.
Best stove in this category and it punches say above its weight and price.

What customers say about "Features"

Stansport 212 Outfitter Series Burner Propane Stove

1 click piezo ignitor that works every time. It was a little hard to twist but it lit everytime!
Great flame control for simmering. I used low heat and the flame never died down.
Stainless steel drip pan - easy to clean and shouldn't rust.
Top of the case is made with very thin metal. It easily flexes and one side is slightly higher than the other.
Gas knobs have no click off - they just tighten. How tight is tight enough?

Camp Chef Everest 2 Burner Stove

Buttery silk smooth flame adjustment down to the perfect simmer or up to "is this going to melt my stove in half hot" we plan on deep frying a turkey this thanksgiving on ONE of the burners.
There are flexible hose adapters that are a nice upgrade that replace the standard camp stove regulator
I am a fan of self ignition, and the igniter button has always fired on the first strike.
It handles low setting great, the ignition has never misfired and it gets HOT.
Carrying handle/groove had sharp edges.
