Best Car Camping Stove available. Simmering and low cooking works.
I am a Scoutmaster and the Genesis Stove was purchased by our Boy Scout Troop. Most camping stoves, including our current high-end Coleman stove’s do not cook well at lower temperatures. The knob goes from off to inferno. This is great if you are boiling water, but a problem when you need to cook French Toast or pancakes.On our first weekend out with the new stove, I cooked French Toast, a rice dish, and baked cinnamon rolls in a dutch oven on the new Genesis. As the advertising promised, the flame is fully adjustable (which blows my mind). It did find that the flame was not perfectly uniform around the whole circle when on the low setting. So, the French Toast didn’t cook perfectly uniform. But that is a tolerable issue. All three dishes were easy to accomplish on the new stove.The stove was easy to clean, stored easily, and appears to be durable. It came with a case and a wind shield.I have one major complaint. If you attach the propane bottle to the extension before you attach the stem to the stove, then you leak a considerable amount of propane. It has a very poor gasket design. This is easily fixed by attaching it to the stove first, but none of our other stoves have this problem.Overall, if I had to purchase a stove for car camping, this would be my first choice. I say that having experience with the best stoves from Coleman and Camp Chef.

Believe the hype, this is one of the best stove out there
over the last 20 years, I have used 3 different camping stoves, 2 large Coleman and this one. This is by far the best of the 3 and will never go back to my other stoves.The good: This one is compact even when used with the fluxpan, easy to clean, the simmer settings feel endless, and it packs a punch when you just want to boil water quickly for your coffee/tea.The bad: As much as I love the endless heat settings, it takes a while to perfectly dial what you want. It is too heavy for backpacking but perfect for Overlanding/car camping.The ugly: None so far. Just nitpicking: The plastic windscreen is useless… Just get rid of it.I just came back for 2 back to back weeklong trips in the middle of the desert with blowing wind and this thing performed flawlessly.

Intelligent design
…. And very nice looking. I have found this is good for either a larger group or if you have to use a propane countertops stove in your kitchen for an emergency. Of time, you can use it for two pants at once, which is awesome. They heat control is without equal. The ignition works great every time. Water boils very fast. Propane can last longer because of the precision heat control. So compact and nice looking. I spent a lot but it’s so easy to use that it’s very worth it.

The best camping stove on the market!
Very fine flame control. This is beyond awesome. Now for those of us who didn’t buy the whole kit, but just bought the stove and the Jetboil frying pan by itself, You can fit the frying pan in the same case that the stove comes with. Just put a microfiber cloth in between the stove and the frying pan to protect the Teflon surface in the pan from getting scratched or destroyed. It doesn’t have to be an Orange one. I just happen to have that color on hand.

Its good, but also pricy!
The stove is easy to pack that is it’s big plus. The burner adjustment is another.Both burners “idle down” very well. Yes, the flame propagation isn’t uniform all around the burners when on very low settings but that is a minor announce and can be dealt with.The OEM provided windscreen is a joke so buy yourself some folding aluminum ones and ( I bought two) and that works very very well with the two burners.Fuel consumption is a bit more troublesome if you plan on using both burners at the same time frequently and as you go up in altitude. Spent a week at 9500′ this past week and when cooking for 4 people, we were going through 1, 1lb can every day and a half. That adds up so beware. If you have the room, and you’ll be at “base camp” for a week or so, if possible bring the 20 pounder and you’ll be fine, if you have room of course.My plan now is to bring one of my old MSR’s and some fuel (Which I have for the lantern anyway) as a back up as the last day I had to borrow a neighboring campers 1 pounder in case I ran out of fuel. Which I did btw just after I made 6 cups of water hot for coffee and oatmeal! Was able to let him have his full canister back but after having gone through 3 full canisters and running on empty on #4, I have now learned that it needs to have more fuel available on the longer high altitude trips if cooking for more than one or two campers. And that sort of cuts into the benefit of the compact design! Weighs about the same as my old 2 burner Coleman but when you add the fuel you’ll need that advantage starts to shrinkOther than that, I like the stove very much. High heat output and great controllability of the burners makes it a nice addition to the base camp kit.

Amazing
This lil system does everything my big grill can do and is so compact to boot. Cooking just got quicker, it takes me maybe 6 minutes if I make spaghetti. It’s easy to operate and turn on. I am very happy with my purchase and recommend this for anyone. The only downfall is the wind guard. Its a pain to install. Like so much of a pain I threw it out lol but just a minor issue, it really is awesome either way

Muy buena.

The flame control is fantastic. The whole system packs down small for car camping. It’s a very well built and easy to set up. I’ve added a half gen to give me an extra burner and it works perfectly.

Love this – it does burn through the fuel though – which is probelmatic on longer trips.
