A little known fact: the maker of the bushbox got his start by selling Firebox Stoves. Firebox is the original classic😎 the Firebox is more bomb proof and has more features and versatility 🙏

I’m enjoying this Vid, but I’m going all in early! Firebox G2, I love both of mine and all the gear I have with it, I’ve used it loads and am very used to all the different plates n grills I got with them! The more you use them the better you get at it!

Im a woodstove junkie, both stoves are great and enjoy using them.Steve from Firebox is a cool guy and makes good videos using his products.

Both are great stoves. While the Bushbox has a larger window, you can add big pieces of fuel from the top on either side. Steve at Firebox now has a new model I'm really excited about, the Freestyle Modular Stove. Steve's store is in the same town my in-laws live in, it's a great little community and in a couple of the videos he's made I've recognized a few of the places he's been at. I also like that all of his stoves are offered in either stainless for less money, or titanium for less weight just like Bushbox does.

You might want to watch a few of Steve's videos to learn ALL of the features of his Firebox Stove and how to best experience them. It really makes a difference!

My G2 Firebox got warped after maybe 10-15 times of use. Bottom AND the sidewall it is supposed to attach to are warped = bottom falls out. My friend who has a firebox he has used for many years have seen me use mine and says I haven't misused it.

The Swedish retailer said that of the thousands of fireboxes they have sold, this has only happened 6-7 times. Firebox USA have great goodwill, and will send me a new Firebox. Really good customer care.

Interesting comparison.... but you didnt mention the Firebox stove is £100 more expensive and harder to source.! Sorry, for me the Bushbox wins hands down!! Does the same job and gives me £100 to spend on other stuff I might need ie a Garberg and a Silky Pocketboy to process the fuel to make the stove work!

[Derek_Monk]

Firebox for the win.
I just put in another Firebox order for TONS of the accessories, cook kit, coffee kit, all the burner cups and Trangia for fuel cannister attaching. Maybe the only thing I won't have is the baking kit for now as I'm just a single person. I bought my brother a G2 5 Inch Firebox like mine, its my favorite piece of backpacking gear.

Thanks for sharing for people.

I prefer the Firebox G2 as well. There are multiple configurations you can use to cook with it from different fuel types, to different pot sizes. USA made with USA steel. Steve is a true outdoorsman, camper and excellent outdoor cook. All of his products are thoroughly tested by him and he elicits comments from his viewers to perfect any new product before bringing it to market. He also kickstarts every new product as well, so you are truly part of the creative process. Not many business owners out there who truly are into what they sell. Aerostitch, Springbar and Hilleberg are the only other ones that I’m aware of who are solely dedicated to quality products and serving their customers.

The firebox sticks have many uses ... The obvious ones and as you showed moving the stove... They can also be used under ash tray to regulate burn ... You can also use them angled to V shape to hold a zebra Billy on its side to act as oven... You can also use them to attach both grill plates to side of stove as warmer for bread or keep brew warm... Fantastic in steel or Ti

Count me in for team Firebox, if a Gen 3 ever debuts, I hope he opens the feed ports up just a bit, but honestly that's nit picking. I take my stainless steel 5" on the truck (I do long haul on the west coast us) and cook on board with a trangia spirit burner, and have a few wide spots in the road in some state/national forests that I park at and overnight near a couple different rivers, they fry up fish and taters like a boss!

Hi from Malaysia. After trying a variety of twig stoves, I finally bit the bullet and got myself a Firebox stove plus accessories last year. It's a game changer with its flexibility - wood, solid fuel tablets, wood pellets, charcoal and of course with my alcohol stove fitted inside on the firesticks. It's a heavy bugger for sure but it' my go to one when I go out. Love the videos and have subscribed. Nice to remind myself of the english countryside having moved out here from the UK 17 years ago with my work. Was only suposed to be here for 6 months but have loved it from day 1. Summer all year round but very wet in our rainy season -Oct to March. Stay safe buddy and look forward to catching up with your previous posts. Cheers 😷😎🇲🇾

I’ve got the Firebox. I use mine for a fire sometimes. I make a Swedish Fire Torch and use it under my tarp. It just takes the chill off nicely. I generally use it when I’m in a fixed camp more. It’s a fair weight to carry! So for through hikes I use it’s little brother the Nano. It fits a Trangia, Trangia gas burner or wood with equal ease.
They do seem to be six of one and half dozen of the other.
They are certainly better than those metal stoves that are like a 3D jigsaw! Putting one of those together with cold wet hands wouldn’t be for me.
Thanks for this video, and keep up the output please. Much appreciated.

Great review! Really helpful to see them both together. I'm looking to get a firebox once they are back in stock. I have been using the Särmä Woodstove so far. It's a bit shorter and lighter. Cheap and sturdy but you have to puzzle it together.

[RedBranchBushcraft]

I do both, fill it up then poke stuff in, I also like putting charcoal from the fire in it first, stole that one from firebox Steve's channel

[Mat-krnf]

I bought the Firebox, 2nd generation, basically because it seemed to be the only stove that you can use as a fire, burning hot for hours, without warping etc. It also has so many different ways you can use it and tweak it, you need to watch Steve’s (the inventor) videos on the different ways you can use it. The only issue really, is the weight. There is the titanium version now, but it doesn’t see to be available in the UK yet, and I’m not sure whether it can be used for long period of very hot use, like the steel version can.

When the sun goes down the bushbox tv screen cannot be beaten.Bushbox all the way. Gave my Firebox away. Grills much better on Bushbox too. Feed from the tv screen on the front when cooking. From the top when just using it for an contained fire.

[sublyme]

Firebox did a phenomenal job marketing their products, which gives them a clear advantage. Plus, the design has been tweaked and optimized by the owner through real life experience, making it one of the best twig stoves on the market. Now if they can only come up with a way to make it less messy :)

[thistoshallpass]

I have Firebox stoves but think the Bushbox is probably just as useful. If you open the wind screen flap on the Firebox you can feed bigger chunks in. I would be happy to use either.

[Berniewojewski]

Nice job. Thank you. I have the BushboxLF. Love it. I’m honestly thinking of getting the Firebox to.
