How to Choose a Camping stove

Criteria #1. Is it easy to transport? Most camping stove or camping grill varies between 20 to 50 lbs. If it needs more than one person to carry, its too heavy for me. Does it pack easily for the car or van? If it comes with a carrying case, that helps too.

Criteria #2. Is it easy to use? Two ease-of-use factors: cooking and fuelling. Newer camp stoves have automatic ignition. In terms of fuel, butane or propane snaps/screws on very easily, unlike the traditional "white gas" fuel. Propane is also easy to find if you run out.

#3 What is the cooking capacity? 8,000 BTU and up will give a good sizzle to your steak.

#4 Is it easy to clean up?
