hi i live in an area that has no gas line so even though i would love to use as i can, we have a ceramic stove top which i really do not like because it stay hot for 10 minutes after you turn it off which really demonstrates the lack of heat control.

I was wondering if any of you have used those one burner butane stoves
like this one.
they are safe to use indoors and i think would be awsome to use instead of our electric stove.
i was just wondering everyones opinions on them and if you think the 15,000 btu burners is worth the 75$ or if it is better to go with the 10,000 btu for 35$
i'm using copper pots so i won't be going past medium anyway.

if it is an indoor type , it should be okay to use.

Have you considered buying a gas stove fitted for propane use and installing a tank?

I have a pair of these stove types, and yes the are Great! camping or indoors, in fact I used to use one on my kitchen floor in my old apartment for Wok Cooking, the electric hob was just not up to the task.

I can`t tell from that exact picture, but mine are very similar but a little less exposed and have a carry case with them too.

but what I Would check before you commit to buying one is the Fuel can availability!
if it`s Specialised, I woudn`t bother, if it`s a Generally available canister then yeah ;)

thanks yeah i can't really install a propane tank as its my parents house and they just bought this stove a year ago. the oven on this thing is awsome but the stove top is really anoying. iwill be moving out soon so this burner will come with me.

Anyways i've decided to buy bo you thing th 10,000 btu one will be sufficient?

it will be Plenty ;)

And your gas will last you longer too!

sweet thanks now i'm off to find a place to buy one... before buying online :)

YT2095 · 03-05-2008, 11:06 AM

well I wish I`d have had something like that when I 1`st started out!

just make sure you have plenty fuel cans in reserve, never let yourself go down to just 1 can ;)
