What I have for review is a Japanese Camp Stove from a company called Snow Peak.
What makes this stove so interesting and special? It’s the way that it transforms from a small stove to a rather robust system.
This is my review of the Snow Peak Home and Camp Stove
Link : amzn.to/465f9q0
Fuel : - Butane Fuel : amzn.to/3oTpWyw
Review Pros :
- Very good quality system - nicely made, good construction, good materials, no rough edges - feels substantial with one small exception which I will speak of in just a moment.
- Very compact design and it’s fairly lightweight for what this stove offers
- The way that it transforms is impressive - it’s rather sleek
- Can support pots and pans ranging from 4.5” to 12” in diameter.
- Overall performance of this stove is very good - there are faster stoves out on the market but most will be larger than this
- Ignitor works very well
- Butane fuel at least here in the States is very inexpensive
- Once you have the stove set up, it offers a very stable platform to cook on.
- Inserting the fuel canister is very fast and simple - there is no locking lever which some may want.
- Stove has an interesting feature that I haven’t seen before - it has a copper heat conduit that warms the fuel canister which helps when using this stove in colder conditions. This is important as butane doesn’t perform the best when it is cold.
- The flames originate from inside of the burner ring which does help with wind resistant but in windy conditions, some sort of shielding will be needed.
Review Cons :
- Pricey - if a compact design isn’t important to you, then there are less expensive stoves out on the market
- Unfolding the stove isn’t as fluid and easy as one would expect. I’ve set this up and broke it down hundreds of times and it’s still not a smooth process - the locking pin on the bottom isn’t super easy to push nor is it to locate.
- No case is included.
With the adjuster, the stove turns off at 1 instead of 0 - the first couple of times that you use this stove you might want to simmer, you make the adjustment and you turn the stove off instead
- While I like the build quality and the materials, there is one slight issue that I want to mention - with the fuel door cover, if you close it too strongly you can overshoot the locking point - it’s a bit flimsy in that regard.
- The pot support legs are too far apart to be used with small cups or pots. - Anything with a diameter less than 4.5” and you will have some difficulty using it with this stove
- No English instructions are included

You get what you pay for and I appreciate the Snow Peak products. Haven’t had any issues with their products. Outstanding engineering & durability.

@alexanderweaver7066 Год назад

I like it! The $130 would be worth paying. The form factor is what sells me and the copper heating device as well. I have a two-burner Eureka stove in my van and it takes up too much space. I have backpacking stoves but the height factor is not feasible. This Snow Peak would fit my needs. Thank you, Luke!

@clarencesmith2305 Год назад

I have seen others do tests on this and other butane stoves and the one thing most have in common is the low "setting" isn't low it's off. That being said I like the "warming plate" under the gas canister.

@jackvoss5841 Год назад

Thank you.for the review. When I went on to the Snow Peak site, they include a caution to NOT use a cast iron pan, as their radiant heat causes problems with the fuel canister. They then offered a covered, aluminum cook pot for about $140. That’s about $110 too much. The unit has some limitations that seem unreasonable. Courtesy of Half Vast Flying

@Xeno-M. Год назад

It seems like it is a good stove. The issue I have is that there are other good butane stoves out there, and although this one is more compact, your use cases are still relegated to Rv, car/suv, and motorcycle/bike camping. For most of these use cases, only motorcycle/bike camping makes sense to get this stove due to it’s compact size. All other cases I would get a bulkier one that has a better simmer control and possibly one that allows for smaller cups to be used. Saving $$ on another model is also of growing importance in this economy.

@adnanaziz1959 Год назад

Another con for me after personally using it, is the way the butane connects to the stove. It tends to pop out when i try to close the stove cover. To the point i just dont bother to close it just so i do not disrupt the fuel connection

@realtalk37851 Год назад

Now that is a very important con😮

@bazman2306 Год назад

I like the stove, the form factor makes it easily transportable and protects the stove ring and igniter when in transit. Dual fuel options would make more versatile (butane/propane). For the $$$ yes it should come with a case or carry case with a pouch for spare fuel. The opening and closing could be easily addressed, and it wouldn’t be too difficult to add small wind break fins that fold down off the pot supports, like wise have a way to have some adjustments to the pot supports to help with smaller pots/cups. For me …. The price is the biggest concern, get it down to around $90 and this could be a good viable option for many, not a backpacking stove as it is, but they could change the materials and make a skeleton version out of titanium, which could more than half the weight, yes the price would be more$$$$. Interesting and different stove, a few tweaks could make this a GREAT one.. superb review Luke, thanks for your time buddy.

@IMDARKFIRE007 Год назад

I like how this video coincides with the new Transformers movie🤣 And yea, for $130 I would straight up be insulted if they not only didn't include a storage bag but expected me to buy one separately.

@richbuilds_com Год назад

I'm not sure who this is marketed at apart from motorbike campers. It's too heavy to backpack, and if you have a car, then cheaper square Coleman style ones are fine. This saves some space, but I'm surprised how heavy it is.

Thanks for the nice overview! Just wanted to let you know that Snowpeak has this on their website for $150 with a bag. 😉 Also- those isobutane canisters are sometimes difficult to find and can’t be shipped by air. Getting a 5 pound cylinder of propane is a lot cheaper and lasts the whole summer with heavy use. I really like the size of this though…bummer!

I have a BRS copy of this stove, it did come with a neoprene case but I had to buy the copper heating plate separately - it’s a loose item that you manually install (very simple) when tempature drops. It seems really nicely made - not Snowpeak quality but still good and it was less than half the price.

@tiaxanderson9725 Год назад

As a kayakker that does long distances and overnight camping I think it's a little too big/heavy for my goals, but I quite like it. Honestly, while the price is a lot (and I'd probably have to pay even more as a West European), but I think the market and consciousness of consumers has been flooded with cheap junk. There are some genuinely good and cheap items, but the vast majority is just crap to truly be "consumed" (and then thrown away). From clothes, to appliances, from camping gear to tools. We ought to appreciate actual quality again. (No seriously, even in 'frugal' the Netherlands where Americans experience the remnants of our calvanistic roots and learn to not just buy two new jackets every season we throw away so much junk clothes that the local/national Salvation Army just has to burn most of it as it's 1) too much and 2) usually junk. And that makes me sad)

@andrewjones-productions Год назад

When I first came to Japan back in 1991 (I'm still here), table-top butane stoves were something new to me. They had yet to make it overseas. The traditional and original use for them was in the home, on a dining table with a large clay pot on top with either a 'shabu-shabu', 'sukiyaki' or Japanese hotpot inside that people around the table would all help themselves too. The camping boom of the 1990s saw people starting to take them outside as well. Since these are so ubiquitous here in Japan, the main advantage of them is that the gas canisters are sold everywhere. From DIY shops, supermarkets and convenience stores. As you point out, they do have their limitations when used outdoors. The SnowPeak design is excellent, however I am shocked that they do not provide English instructions in the USA. The Japanese are immediately up in arms if there is no Japanese instructions or 'tori-setsu' (取説) included. Hypocrisy much. FYI: 'Tori-setsu' is a colloquialism and abbreviation of the Japanese equivalent of 'instructions book/user manual' etc. It derives from the long-winded 'Tori-atsukai Setsumei-sho' (取扱説明書).

This is a stove that could benefit from a side-by-side comparison with other lightweight folding stoves. There are a few on the market that have different form factors.

@1stRanger 10 месяцев назад

Since I own this stove and since cons that I have experienced weren't covered in this review I'll add my two cents. This stove has two potential problems that may catch you with your pants down and both are related to gas canister attachment system. The thing is some canisters are made from metal that is not very magnetic and so there's no way you going to make such canisters to attach since this stove it using magnet. Another issue is with their "safety mechanism" and it's rather common problem that I experienced as well. There's little safety pin that tends to make canister disconnect randomly. I had to completely remove it and ever since attachment was rock solid for me. That being said you still need canister that is made from a fairly ferromagnetic metal or else it won't hold.

@martinhafner2201 Год назад

What about on a hot day? Does the heat transfer warm the canister too much? Those cans are made with blow out safety vents for a reason. Can you easily disable the heat transfer system? If not, their rev 2 stove should let you pivot the warm plate away from the canister. Arizona has about 9 months of summer, so this issue is quite important. Overall, it seems like a way to shrink the size of your Jeep shtf kit, but at a cost. At around $60, I can get a quality 12,000 BTU rectangular butane stove with a propane adapter.
