Your stove is unbelievable! I am blown away by the quality of this product! Yesterday I used it with a folding grill, and my wife and I enjoyed a wonderful campfire style steak dinner, with potatoes and roast vegetables! The small amount of wood required to cook all this food is fantastic!... I am a big fan of wood burning stoves... I have 8 different wood stoves, (9 now), and your product is by far the very best yet!... this is one of the very few products that I have owned in my life that is of such good quality, backed by a GREAT company, and is still sold at a very reasonable price. Keep up the great work!

"...it could easily become the most ruggedly built backcountry stove I know of. ", "…The largest positive aspect to this stove I see is that it demands only "on-site" burnable fuel and seems not to be too affected by the type of wood being burned. "

Just arrived at our site in the Adirondacks of the New York State, we found out that we had forget our propane bottles for our camping stove without the possibility to get some in less than 35 miles. Lucky we were to have our Vital Stove. We were able to cook for all familly with somes twigs that we found on the ground even if it had rain all night.

... it has made sensation with our teams from Peru, Equator, Costa Rica, Italia, Spain and Colombia. It is with the help of this stove that I was able to prepare coffee for the teams. It was their first hot beverage since 4 days of operations.

I am very impressed with this stove. On our backpacking and canoe trips it will be invaluable as we will not have to worry about running out of fuel or carrying and disposing of fuel tanks. In fact it takes up less room and weighs less than our “light-weight” gas stoves and fuel bottles. An added bonus of the vital stove is that it is incredibly quiet (unlike the roar of most pressurized gas stoves).

Since I appreciate outdoor sports, I have try different stoves. Often I found their operation and maintenance complicated. Also, I had to be sure that I was bringing enough fuel. With Vital Stove, It's so simple, light and fast. In addition, I have no more need to bring fuel, wood, itcan find everywhere... Thanks for this good idea!

After using the Vital Stove on a four day canoe trip in Northern Ontario, I must say that I was very impressed with the compact size, durability, flexibility of fuel source, and especially the range of heating capacity available with the damper and dual speed fan settings. … , the Vital Stove is well suited for backcountry travel through wilderness areas across Canada and beyond.
