About this product
The Camp Bistro 3 Portable Camping Cooker makes outdoor cooking straightforward whether you're at a festival, family camping weekend, or day trip. The piezo ignition fires up without matches or lighter, while the cartridge locking system cuts gas flow and ejects the cartridge safely when you're done. Built from steel with a stainless-steel cartridge cover, it's compact enough to pack away in the included hard plastic carry case. The fixed, elevated pan support prevents overheating and keeps pots stable during cooking.
The wide enamelled pan support gives you a steady cooking surface for pans and kettles. Child-safe push and turn knobs add peace of mind when kids are around. Powered by Campingaz CP250 IsoButane gas cartridges, it operates reliably in lower temperatures when spring or autumn camping. The cartridge isn't included, so grab one before you head out. Complies to European Safety Standard EN 174762021, and comes with a two-year manufacturer's guarantee.

Easy to use and great quality
We have been using this while waiting for our new hob to be installed and it has been very good. The cooking time is not much different from my usual gas hob, it is easy to use and lights quickly and easily. the storage/carry case seems to be strong and durable.

Great camping gas for emergency use
Excellent carrying and storage case. A compact cooking appliance which I have purchased for emergency use as our house is all electric and value for money

Good quality gas stove
Bought as a replacement for a similar designed camping stove, this is I would say a bit more premium quality and this particular model has a grill option that can be bought separately which was my reason for choosing. Comes in a sturdy case so can be stored away safely between uses. Takes standard camping type bottles easily available

Excellent item
Have bought two stoves previously which haven’t lasted more than a few weeks. This one is sturdy and the best part is that you don’t need to remember to turn the raiser over (that your kettle sits on) as it’s fixed in place.

Love this portable gas stove
Very easy and safe to set up. It’s stable and easy to ignite. Efficient and doesn’t preheat or stay hot after use for long. Easy to store.

Sturdy but lightweight
We used it for a lakeside picnic of sausages and rolls with onions and it was fantastic.
