Camping stove
My daughter wants a decent leisure camping stove for Xmas - Perhaps something with two rings and a windshield - As it will be a present, I'm not fussed about the cost - Any recommendations?
Re: Camping stove
Do you want with separate refillable gas cylinder (and regulator (eg Camping gas 407)) or with direct screw fit disposable cylinders?

Car Camping?
Look at a Cobb BarBQ - BarBQ, oven or hob
Can even do marshmallows in sticks
Love mine

Re: Camping stove
For car camping I have a cadac carry chef I love it
Re: Camping stove
We've had a few different ones over the years. Started with a big double burner and grill, then got a Cadac safari burner.
Have found that two of these is by far the most convenient:

Not very exciting I'm afraid or a great gift but portable enough to brew up anytime, cheap gas and cheap to replace. Small size for packing too and they sit self contained on a table for cooking on.
It may be better to buy them a camping kitchen unit with windshield... Just an idea...

Re: Camping stove
For our family car camping trips we have a Cadac, its great especially as we can cook pizza really well.
Although I still take a separate Alpkit Brukit for drinks.

Re: Camping stove
As its a gift Primus Onja would be really nice to receive.
Or Primus Tupike for something a little larger.
Great designs incorporating Brass, leather and hardwood.

Re: Camping stove
Another thumbs up for the cadac one here, very flexible and portable 

Re: Camping stove
My dad had, in fact still has, one of those 2 ring burners with a flip top and a grill. Hooks up to a separate gas bottle BBQ style
Was great when we were camping as kids, full blown fry ups for brekkie. I used it a couple of times for car camping about 8 years ago but haven't bothered since as it's too big and going camping becomes a faff
Last time I car camped I used a trangia! Those Alpkit Landar stoves look pretty good but running it on the smaller disposable canisters can get expensive. the refillable BBQ style ones are probably cheaper to run

Re: Camping stove
We've got a Campingaz Chef two burner and run it off a 907 refillable bottle. Ive got two of those because you only run out of gas when you using it. Highly recommended - cheap to buy and run, burns pretty hot and is easy to clean. One tip, what ever you buy, get her a small table to sit it on - the things you will cook on it will require attention, and unless you like squatting, it will make life heaps easier.
I'm just going outside ...

Re: Camping stove
Thanks folks, some great suggestions there, hadn't even thought of anything like the Cobb Barbq which is an interesting alternative.
