A camp stove is a piece of equipment everyone should own, regardless of their propensity to be in the outdoors, simply for the service it can provide in case of an emergency or event where cooking elements that require electricity or fire will not be available. SunnySports carries a great selection of simple camp stove sets for less than $100 that will not only command minimal space and maintenance, but minimal dollars from your wallet as well. Here are just a few worth investing in.
Optimus Elektra FE Cook System – $80.99 FREE SHIPPING!
For almost $20 under the $100 budget, you can score the Optimus Elektra FE Cook System, perfect for the casual camper or seasoned outdoorsman alike. With this simple cook set, you’ll be up and running in no time with a perfectly designed system that includes Optimus’ wide head Crux Lite gas stove, large clip-on windscreen, 0.8L pot with heat exchanger and lid that doubles as another pan, and a handheld piezo igniter. The FE in the name stands for fuel efficient, which is everything this cook system is, offering 90 minutes of continuous burn time from a 230g butane or propane gas canister (not included) and bringing the capacity of the pot to a boil in just over two minutes. Everything fits inside the pot after use, which is all safely contained within the included soft fabric carrying pouch with drawstring closure to store everything in when it’s time to hit the trail. At just 1.35 lbs, you won’t even notice this comprehensive camp stove set in your pack!
Esbit Alcohol Stove and Camp Cookset – $99.99 $88.39 FREE SHIPPING!
If you’re looking for an even more minimalist option, the Esbit Alcohol Stove and Camp Cookset is right up your alley. Requiring no ready-made fuel canister at all, you’ll be able to warm things up quickly using only a brass alcohol burner with variable temperature control that runs on denatured alcohol, a product readily found in a wide range of stores. You’ll receive 1.8L and 2.35L pots, fry pan, pot lid with plastic grip, stand, wind shield, pan gripper, potholder, two plastic plates, brass burner, and microfiber cloth to keep parts protected and clean. The textured bottom on the pans ensures heat retention and even distribution so food cooks evenly, and everything packs inside the pot and into the included mesh bag for a simple camp stove set that’s easy to keep and use.
