That's it sold!! I've been researching for 3 days on which wood burning camping stove my girlfriend and I should take on our cross country trip, and this is it! Love your other videos. Very helpful
Excellent review video. I ordered the Titan with the pot. I watched your video and feel even better about my purchase. Want to spice up my backyard fun and eventually my next camping trip!
Just got a pleasant surprise, bought one Titan and got another free. I also bought the 1800 pot as my nod to Mors Kochanski's bush pot. I couldn't bring myself to use aluminum... enter the stainless steel Solo Stove Pot 1800.
@livingsurvival thanks for the video. Just picked one of these up as well and am looking forward to using it soon. Curious as to what lighter that was you used to start the fire? Thanks in advance.
I have the solo and titan, and want to get the big one, the campfire? I don’t know what it’s called. With all three you got a complete cooking set up for a family.
Hey Ben, which stove do you like more and why ,solo titan or silverfire scout. Just wanted to get your opinion. I know someone who is interested in buying a stove.I don't have any experience with solo products. I have the silverfire scout and like mine but he is in between these two gassafier stoves. Thanks,Jeff
Hey Ben I am fifteen and live in Grand Rapids michigan I am in the process of making my own bugout bag. Your videos have really helped me put it together because none of my family feel the need to prepare. But anyways thanks for the awesome videos and I was wondering if you could do a video on a small survival kit.
If you want it to keep going for longer burn times just add some charcoal briquettes to it and it'll definitely save you on constant fueling feed times when cooking 💪😎🤙
I have the smaller solo Stove. To be honest I would not say that it is forgiving. Unbelievable how fast this thing is burning twigs... But I agree easy to clean.
Nice Video! Do you have the same problem like me, that the pot is always kind of sticky/gluey? In my first try I used wood pellets and in the second try I used some sticks like you did in this video...the sticks were much better. I guess the pellets made the pot much more gluey because of the type of wood. I think in the pellets, a big part of them were pine wood...so you have more resin in it. What do you think about that "problem"? Do have some ideas for me to reduce the gluey black layer on the pot? I also testet some beech fire wood that was very well dryed, but the small sticks I've tested in the second try were even better that this wood. 😅 Thank you in advance! 👋
Probably from the pine. I typically will use that to get the fire going but burn other wood as fuel. Won’t hurt anything and probably can get it mostly off with steel wool.
anything you burn on a fire will have the burned look unless you scrub them really good when you get home. I generally will use dried leaves, grass or moss to clean the majority of soot off before I put it in the bag. the bags that come with these are nice because you can flip them inside out and just wipe them clean. typically i will scrub my pots with a scotch bright pad when i get home again just to remove the soot. i don't care that they blacken up ;)
Question: How long does the exterior of the solo stove stay hot for after using it? Just considering if I were in a rush to go somewhere and needed to pack up, I'd hate to sit around waiting for it to cool off in order to even touch it.
Just picked up a clone of the over priced Chinese solo titan. $23 for an exact copy. Wood pellets are imo the absolute best fuel for these stoves. I get 40 minutes or so out of 2 cups of pellets.
silver fire is a great stove as well. i feel the solo stove is a bit more efficient and not as fussy. I prefer their pots to the MSR pan that nests with the silver fire. cant go wrong either way though.
I want to get one for a survival stove, it’s not heavy and it feeds more than me and my wife and that’s a huge plus, I don’t think I could tell somebody no in a survival situation, with me we all make it not one for all
I have the Solo 1800 pot Be aware it is almost paper thin by comparison to the the Zebra pots Yes much lighter than the Zebra but they do not cook as well The food sticks and burns and the steel discolors to blue if you are cooking on either a hot gas flame or a hot wood fire So I would strongly suggest a Zebra 14 cm to nest the Solo Stove It will be heavier but far far more robust
How do you get all the burnt ash etc out after you have finished using it and wouldn’t it eventually fill up with ash, leaving little space to feed more fuel in?
you know many people willing to pay $289 for a bonfire? The kind of person that maybe buys firewood in a bag. However....what was that seasoning you were using? And if you could potentially do a video of other campfire recipes, im sure they would be a big hit....SLAMMIN video!
Living Survival true. I live full time on the road. I know how it goes. I have a flame genie which is a third of the cost. Same gasifier principle. I'll wait until these go on sale.
Great stove, excellent pot. One critique, no onion, garlic or spices with the carrots and taters?? Dollar store has a New Orleans spice mix, good on about everything :-)
Are you kidding me! multiple people from that pot??? i could eat 1 and a half of those pots worth of rice and potatoes. That pot is a solo pot man, unless you eat snack meals.
Sorry to say but..... I hate seeing a product review when the product is shiny new There is a lack of credibility when you have not even used the product yet Please go away use it for a couple of months and show us a sooty creosoted pot and stove
