What this is about
This EVOCAMP Compact Camping Stove 3.2 kW with Piezo Igniter is a threaded type stove with three foldable support arms. You attach the stove to an appropriate threaded gas canister.
Note that it is suitable for gas cartridges with a screw connection, but an adapter is required for gas cartridges with a bayonet connection (which is not included in the package).
This is a stainless steel camping stove, see the picture, which gives it high heat resistance and excellent structural strength. The red button on the right is the piezo igniter mentioned in the official name of the stove.
As you realize, it does not attach directly to a canister, there is a hose for this purpose.
One interesting detail is that the legs have a non-slip surface with rubber to ensure safe use. Also, the three support arms are a non-slip type when you place your pots on top.
The package includes three main elements: the stove itself, a robust and tear-resistant carrying bag in a stylish black design, and a foldable gas canister holder.
The stove is very easy to use, you simply unfold its three arms, attach the stove to an appropriate threaded gas canister, open the gas switch, and ignite with the integrated piezo igniter.

Who is the EVOCAMP Compact Camping Stove for
Regarding the weight and packed size
The stove weighs 7.9 oz (225 g) on its own, and the total weight in the carry bag with the canister holder is 9.56 oz (271 g).
Dimensions when folded are shown in the picture. It is quite compact, measuring only 4.7 x 3.9 x 1.2 inches (12 x 10 x 3 cm). You realize that it fits easily into any backpack.
The picture below shows the dimensions when the stove is ready to use. As you realize, the three arms spread wide, and they are supported with equally wide legs. At the same time, it is not too high so it is stable and can be used on any surface.
I see it as a perfect stove for people who want stability and power at a reasonable weight. The diameter of the unfolded burner is 17 cm (6.7 in), and it has an 11 lb (5 kg) weight capacity. This means it is suitable for camping cookware of various sizes, unlike some smaller solo stoves.
So the rating may depend on where you plan to use it. For example, for solo use when carrying it in the pack, it may be too big. I rather use my BRS Stove 3000T. But for a group who carries a bit bigger pots, this is an excellent choice.
This stove is also a great choice for picnics and weekend family adventures outdoors. The picture below summarizes it all:
Furthermore, to add more stability, they have included a foldable gas canister holder. This holder takes up hardly any space and allows you to securely attach gas cartridges of different sizes so you can cook comfortably under all conditions.
Regarding power
This stove has a power output of 3.2 kW and consumes only 230 g of gas per hour. This allows you to boil 1 liter of water in just 2-3 minutes, which is quite impressive.
Regarding the price, this stove is incredibly affordable, please follow the links below and compare the prices.
