Gas One GS-8300 - Camp Stove Compact Butane Stove with Carrying Case - Foldable Portable Stove

This is a great little stove. I haven’t used it camping yet. BUT I did several tests at home. I was able to pick up Coleman butane at a local Walmart since the butane won’t ship to the state I live in. It worked wonderfully. So don’t worry, you don’t need the gas one butane to operate this stove. This stove is designed really well, the butane locks in and lighting is simple. Instructions are easy to follow and the carrying case is clutch. I got the orange and the color is very cool. Of course this is probably best for car camping. And it’s only one burner but honestly my friend has the Coleman camp stove with two burners and it takes up so much more space. This fits in my 8gal action stacker just fine even in its case. The heat was ample to heat water quickly and cook food. Not sure how windproof it would be. But for the price it’s a great buy and it gives you a smaller profile for a high output cooking stove. I could even see this being used by people who do cooking demos and are out in a place that might not have electric hookups and must operate off fuel sources. Be sure to remember the stove is hot. So give it time to cool before packing and as the instructions said after removing the butane run the stove to gas out any fuel left in the chamber to avoid any issues. Excited to use this and show it off on my next camp trip!

This one burner butane stove packs a punch. It fits snug into its case, is light weight yet feels sturdy, comes with piezo auto-ignition and offers good flame control. All at a price point that doesn't break your budget. I have used it on a few camping trips without any trouble whatsoever. No, I don't know how long it takes to boil 1 liter of water. What I know is that a single 8oz Butane canister was enough to boil water for coffee, prepare freeze dried meals, and heat up patties for a party of 5 for both dinner and breakfast. So, the stove does burn efficiently. The setup is simple and you can start cooking in less than a minute. Couple of improvements can make this stove ideal for car camping. First there is no wind protection on the burner, something that the manufacturer can easily add with a redesign. Now absent that, you'll need to purchase a separate wind screen - not a biggy. I bought GasOne's windscreen for $10 (search for B01HH5YEIE on Amazon) which works great with the stove. Second, there is no space to store the butane canister in the stove's case. Again not a biggy if you are car camping. You are likely already hoarding a boatload to the camp site, so a couple tiny butane canisters won't be much hassle. Though would be nice if the manufacturer redesigned the case and added dedicated storage space for atleast 1 butane canister. The positives of this stove far out weight the limitations I called out above, and this stove is still worth every bit of your consideration if you are looking to buy a good car camping stove at a reasonable price.

Stove is nice, compact, burns efficiently. Only issue is the auto ignition has never worked. Stove comes with a checklist of things to do when something isn't working, went through that, but auto ignition still doesn't work. Not that big a deal as it's easy enough to light it with a match or lighter.

The stove works great! Folks who are having issues it seems they are having issues with opening and closing the stove, the design is flawless when you figure it out (which doesn’t take more than a couple minutes). Highly recommend for car camping trips, it’s small and very packable.

We bought this for a camping stove, tried it out in the kitchen. Works very well, and I was impressed that it was so heavy weight and what seems to be well made. I just contacted the maker for an extensive warranty. Very Impressive stove.

This little stove uses very little butane. It's super lightweight and fits in a very small space. It's super easy to turn on. You can adjust the heat easily. I can cook most food items on this stove in an 11" pan. I like using the Blue Diamond pans or Green Pan because the food slides right out and you can wipe it clean in seconds. The wind is the only problem I've endured even inside my SUV with the hatch up. If it's windy it takes longer. I put something in front of the flame that helps. It's not really the stoves fault there isn't much you can do about the weather. Other then that it's great!

Nice and compact! Works well and easy to setup and put away. Heat output seems decent but is probably limited due to the nature of butane.

I love the design and bought it for camping trips but it's too bulky & heavy for backpacking camping and the heating isn't strong enough for us. It's good for car camping and using in a well wind protected area.

Never been experienced issue. We still using it perfectly

The stove folds up to a small size. Good design. Very simple to use and perfect for car camping or road trip picnics.

Does as described. Very satisfied with the purchase. This is a well built product and is definitely not flimsy. Still need to test it in action in the next camping trip. Stay tuned…
