Nice to see some folks who appreciate these stoves. I’m fighting an uphill battle in my scout troop. We own half a dozen Coleman stoves, and I love them. The new families who have joined the troop are all really pushing butane stoves or propane stoves because of the convenience. They have trouble with the Coleman stoves and seem to lack a desire to learn how to use them correctly. They love to buy the latest gear. So I am constantly defending these stoves and trying to teach them how to use them. I think it’s primarily a laziness with the pumping.
