great informational video, you are a good presenter...well done Blighty boy...the Canadian BushBuddy is the way to go though eh? The thing is amazing and made in good old BC Canada
Sadly not in the UK. The manufacturing was totally inconsistent and they couldn't supply when we needed them, so I think you can only get them direct from Holland.
Looks to be really unstable.. here in colorado i usually camp on uneven ground that mixed with the dry forest and this thing falling over which will certainly happen over time equals a forest fire use canister stoves better burn times and much more reliable
@Rockymtnnorth Can't see your logic there. There base of the stove is greater than the average gas canister, and so it is equally stable. Down to operator error! Regarding Gas of course it is quicker and easier, but it isn't environmentally friendly to produce and it is filling up land fill. You are totally missing the point of wood stoves!
I don't see how it went from a full burn at 8 minutes ten seconds to the fire being fully out and warm to the touch by ten minutes. Me thinks a little video editing was done
@johnmonk66 Not so! The stove is actually a double layer of stainless steel and thus the exterior is actually cool to the touch. Therefore no video tricks involved ;-)
The Bush Cooker looks exactly like the Bush Buddy (except for the holes in the screen/pot holder). Is the Bush Cooker the lincensed European version of the Bush Buddy? Or is it just a copy?
The metal is a very thin stainless steel and the method of construction results in the item being much stronger as a whole. That said, these kinds of cookers do benefit from the added protection of being stored inside a cook pot before putting them inside your rucksack.
This is how they were designed to be used and stored within the (for example) Tibetan 1100, Primus 1lt Trek Kettle/Eta Pot and Snowpeak Pot, to name a few.
Great little stove! Bought one recently and have nothing but good to say about it! Very easy to use, and it works great! Very informative video, I learned a few new things about it today.
nice

Good video and nicely put. What a great way to cook during dryer weather without looking for petrol. Might even buy one for cycle camping.

Thanks for this extremely informative video.
This looks like a very versatile stove with several improvements over the previous model.

It is similar to the BB, however there are minor improvements which make it more adaptable. There are no legal issues relevant as far as I know.

It would probably work okay with a small wok, however if it is the bigger/normal size I would suggest using the Honey Stove which has a wider base.

Yes very clear demo, I cook with a wok, do you think this stove would work well with one???

Neat video. I cracked up when you referred to the decagon 'meth stove', as it made me think of a methamphetamine lab here in the US lol.

The metal looks rather thin on the stove
How solid does it feel?
Will it take the bumps of being in a backpack?
Stainless steel though is often quite flexible

It's a Tibetan 1100ml titanium pot that we sell. Sold under various names around the world by people who have rebranded them.
