Camping tabletop stoves are small, light and quickly ready to use. You fold out the stove, put in a tablet and cook. That is handy for camping, bushcraft and in an emergency, because you need no gas or power. A solid fuel is all it takes, so you can make a hot drink or a meal almost anywhere.
Why camping tabletop stoves are so handy
The stove is so small that it fits in your coat pocket. Yet it stands firm, so your pan does not tip over. The fuel is a solid block. You light it and it burns calmly and steadily. Therefore it also works well when it is cold or wet. Brands such as Esbit and BCB have made these stoves for years.
The material copes well with heat. You hardly need to look after it, because there are no loose parts to break. After cooking, you fold the stove shut and put it away. Even with a lot of use, it keeps working well.
How to use it
Set the stove on flat, firm ground
Put a tablet in the holder and light it
Place the pan on top and wait for the water to boil
Let the stove cool down first, then fold it up
Only cook outside or in an open space, never in a closed tent
