Which one should you buy?

For most campers the Coleman Peak1 Single-Burner at around 35 dollars is the best value pick, pairing a fast 10,000 BTU burner that boils a litre in just over three minutes with a sub-200 gram weight that suits solo and couple trips. Buy the Coghlan's Folding Camp Stove at 26 dollars if you want the cheapest, lightest option for an emergency kit or ultralight trip, the Companion Ranger 2-Burner at 80 dollars if you need a budget twin-burner for a full camp meal, or a Jetboil if boil speed is everything - the Zip at 161 dollars boils extremely fast for brews and dehydrated meals, while the MiniMo at 215 dollars adds real simmer control so it actually cooks. Step up to the Coleman Hyperflame Fyreknight at 230 dollars only if you want a high-output, wind-blocking twin-burner for serious car camping, since it is bulky and heavy for anything hike-in. The single best value, though, is the Coleman Peak1.
