🍳 Optimus 8019743 Crux Weekend HE Non-stick Cook System - Enhanced for Better Cooking Review

I love the packaging but the retailer at Revain lied to me! They sent me a standard oven, NOT the OFFERS FOLDING BOARD! I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED BY THIS! YOU SHOULD SEND ME THE RIGHT OVEN.

I go camping regularly at the weekend. My previous stove was a White Box spirit lamp. This thing is bulletproof! However, it is painful to use and does not burn for long. This oven is amazing. So comfortable. A little cumbersome, but worth it.

Very happy with the product, especially the oven. Slightly heavier than some but for me the ultra light stoves I had didn't hold up. This one is very durable, feels very well built. Everything I need to take with me fits into this small bag.

Bought one of these 7 years ago for hiking after we moved to Flagstaff, Arizona. Seven years later, it's going well, it's going great! I bought one for my son's graduation gift as he loves camping and hiking and loves it. Easy to use, lightweight and durable.

Heats up quickly and cools down quickly. In strong winds you need a windbreak. Works fantastic with the Optimus windshield clip. Very light and compact. Seems strong enough to last a long time. Easy to install and remove. I like the soft torch head storage pouch that fits into the bottom of the fuel canister. This will protect it from damage. Very thoughtful design. Hope to use for many years.

I bought this oven a year ago and was impressed with its weight, power, versatility and value. However, it was loose at the elbow and I just assumed it was a cheap Amazon oven. A year later I checked someone's crux and they didn't have the babble that I did. I decided to check it out and it comes with a 2 year guarantee and is made by Katadyn, a well known outdoor gear manufacturer. They replaced it without question.

Nice stove and pot. Very light weight. With good sturdy handles on the pot and pan I'm concerned about the heating fins at the bottom though, if dropped at the right angle they can crush so I made a chiusi to protect it in my backpack. The folding stove has a nice design, it is hidden under the fuel canister and everything is packed nicely and neatly. Another potential problem is that the furnace head (in the locked position) rotates nearly a millimeter to one side or the other, so placement on
