Advantages: Great in extreme weather Disadvantages: Can be fiddly
...is a review about the Coleman Peak One Stove.
Why use this instead of other cooking stoves?
Well it boils water faster than any other stove I have ever used, see more about that further in the review.
When it comes to low temperatures (cold weather and late at night) it still performs well, other stoves can become slower and therefore cook slower.
When it comes to high altitudes (high up hills or even mountains) it still out performs any other ...

Advantages: Small, portable, high heat (but controllable), reliable Disadvantages: Price of fuel
I purchased a Coleman Peak 1 camping stove about 12 years ago, when I embarked on an expedition to walk the Penine Way.
The stove is lightweight, portable, and best of all - reliable. It gives a good heat, boiling 2 pints of water in less than 5 minutes (try doing that with your standard Calor Gaz stove!).

Quick review of Coleman Peak 1 Petrol Camping Stove Review ofColeman Peak 1 Petrol Camping Stoveby

This has been an excellent stove for so many years. Not the lightest , but always reliable and controlable.I bought it to replace a SVEA 123 Climber( (which I still have). The ease of use and sheer power is worth a lot. As an extra snippet , my brother in law took friends to Snowdonia in winter, and was happily simmering potatoes for eight, when all of their gas stoves had given up the ghost. He then bought one of his own!
