Thanks Mark for the video review. This looks like a nice contained stove and pot; probably not for backpacking, but rather a basecamp or canoe trip without portages.

Looks to be a great stove for situations where weight is not as much of a concern such as car or boat etc type transportation. I am personally a fan of efficient burning abilities such as this stove displays.

I have the 1st Gen I purchased at the kickstart.
It’s in perfect condition, I plan to hand down to my grandsons one day.

Thank you so much for this review. I am not in the market for a cooking stove, but i enjoy watching your videos anyhow. I usually go right away to your ...more...section for more information, because sometimes I have to use the transcript as well to keep up with you.
Thank you again... wonderful video.

Finally got the stove 8-5-24. It's a beauty! Works great, high quality! We still don't know what the delay was. The company did finally answer my emails saying they would check with their U.S. office, and get back to us. Not another word from them. Two weeks later I wrote to cancel the order. Then the next day it finally shipped. So we're happy, but you too might need to wait for one. I hope not!

Not a bad price at all, and I love that rocket stoves will burn just about anything, but they need constant managing. When I used my large bucket style rocket stove the sticks in the feed were shooting flames out the side. I couldn't take my eyes off of it for a second. Maybe these smaller styles are a bit easier to manage. My Eco Zoom was like a bon fire. It had so much heat all around it my hands had to work quick. It was a cold night, so the heat felt good, but it needed constant tending. If my sticks were too long they would burn in half, and flaming sticks would fall on the ground. I like that this one you are reviewing is so complete with a pot. It is a great price.

Good stove and good vid, Mark. Should be pretty good in the winter time, too.

Seems like a good stove when set up camping somewhere
Well thought out design
Nice review Mark

[redsorgum]

Nice kit. I definitely could see using this when camping on a motorcycle/scooter/bicycle. ✌️🇺🇸🇨🇦✌️

Right on with the review Mark. I have one but don't carry it far. Although very efficient, a lighter and cleaner burning 'gasifier' like the Goshawk or Bushbuddy is my go to stove for the pack. I use the Arnaud on my patio and take it 'car' camping. About all that can be said other than the lighter options will do both 'car' and 'pack'. Humm!

Fair Price For This ! Thanks For Your Demo, Mark ! ATB T God Bless

Great video. The name in French is pronounced Ar-a-noh. D is silent. It was my bosses name when I worked in France.

That is a great stove for car camping. Btw I still see people making the Ikea Hobo stoves. Seen a video less than a month ago. Lol

Just got this stove, first burn tonight. Seems to generate even heat, can control temperature by how much wood you put in. I get the feeling this is quite a bit better cooking stove than other twig stoves I’ve tried (Keith titanium, Firebox, or my much missed titanium bush box LF stolen off my bike). Somehow it feels more like an oven than a stove. Yes it’s heavy, yes I share the peeve about the top cup fitting too tight - but can flip the cup upside down and it works as a loose lid. Takes a while to cool but not too slow if you dump out coals. Probably good for cooking in the park.

Good option and review Mark , thanks for sharing , God bless !

Morning Mark! Geeze, seems no matter how early I get up on a Saturday morning, you’re already here. 🙂
Looks like a quality item, but I always dislike this type because of how narrow they are. I’ve had a couple pots tip over on stoves, so….
But this whole rocket stove idea, I feel, is over hyped. Of course it’s nice to not have smoke, but I think the efficiency is mostly lost by the amount of heat, and the speed it comes out. If you look at the flames, they’re shooting out all over the place, and being lost to the environment. Also there is no way a pot could absorb that much heat, that quickly. So in the end, yes it’s fast, but efficient? I don’t think so.
Most quality stick stoves produce very little smoke once they’re hot too, btw.
Just the opinion of a stubborn, getting old, man.

A few nice improvements over the v1.0. Most notably the increase of chimney height and reduction of feed port inclination angle. Seems to be a well thought and decent stove.

How much can you preload in the feed port and how long does it burn without tending to?

I had this stove and sadly has to say it was a dissapointment.
It was the stove where I had to blow the most air into to make it run.
I then changed it, did change it into a afterburner, what helped.
At last it was to large and heavy for me.
I changed it into a picogrill hobo and I love that the most.
