So far has performed as expected and the quality is great! It took many months to get back in stock but it’s not disappointed so far!

Great little cook surface. The finish is holding up after a good number of uses. One thing to watch for is that the fuel lid cover may have a sharp edge underneath- nothing that can’t be fixed with a file. The heat isn’t entirely even but that’s expected given the shape. It’s not the Basecamp, but it’s pretty darn good!

I bought the biolite stove a week ago and used it on a camping trip. I found it burned hot for about 35-40 minutes using the recommended amount of wood pellets topped with a few dry bits of wood. It was easy to start using the included fire starter.
The temperature is difficult to regulate, was very hot even on lowest fan setting, so that required careful planning of what to cook when. I was able to cook a meal and boil several litres of water for dishes on one burn time. I found it was next to impossible to add fuel and get it to burn. I suspect one needs to add it while the flame is still hot.
My only real concern is the small support for cooking pots. It is unstable and I managed to spill two pots of hot food. Perhaps an additional secure folding grate with extended arms that could be fitted over the burn chamber would be a useful piece of equipment to add. I did not buy the kit but am wondering if the pot/ kettle would be more stable, if limited in scope. All in all, I was impressed with the fuel efficiency and the burning of wood gas at the top ventilation holes and almost complete combustion of fuel. Great little stove, about an environmentally friendly as one could get, and uses no fossil fuel!
