Easy to use flame control valve gives you greater control over the heating of your food, and wind deflector leaves keep the party going while you’re out camping.

Weight and portability
Weighing in at under 600g, the EZOWare is still pretty lightweight for a more sizable stove. It folds away fairly well for transport in your backpack and storage in your car, and the delicate-looking wind deflector leaves are actually solidly sturdy.

Materials
Made to withstand the elements and high temperatures, the EZOWare is made from stainless steel and an aluminium alloy. Definitely one of the Best camping GAS stoves available.

Features
The main feature of the EZOWare is its series of wind deflector leaves. They fold out and in like flower petals, and are designed to help keep the wind away from the flame. They do so pretty well, and they sit nicely on top of the EZOWare’s solid foundation.

Why we love it
Windy days can make lighting the stove outside a problem, and lighting it inside is a recipe for disaster. The EZOWare solves most of that problem. A good contender for the winner of our Best camping GAS stoves review.

Check Price

Well, now we are getting fancy. The Campingaz Chef is a double burner stove and grill, which can house frying pans and food on a grill plate.

Materials
The housing is durable plastic, and the grill and burner set itself is made from high grade steel, for strength and longevity.

Compact, safe and sturdy, with enough room to make breakfast for the whole family. Packs away nicely and looks great.
