I bought one of these and I would not recommend this stove to anyone. Many issues since I bought it and the main issue is the front door design that does not have enough vents to provide enough air.

Expensive junk.

I use a stove made by Four Dog Stove Company in my 17x14 wall tent. I think mine is the 3-dog model which keeps my tent very warm but Virginia does not have super cold weather do deal with in November, which is when it is used most.

It is a heavy stove and would not pack well.

Another vote for Four Dog Stoves. I love mine with the side water tank.

Okay here you go. I will give you a few examples for the smallest one they make that I bought off my arctic Owen tent.

1. Three little tiny air vents
2. Water tank lid will not open completely and it's difficult to refill since you have to hold it with one hand
3. Legs are thin and unstable
4. Doors won't seal and are leaking

It's a garbage and I would be happy to sell it to you since you like it so much ...

Eldfell Swedish wood stove imported by Mansfield outdoors in WA. is a first rate stove worthy of inspection. Pricey but engineered well and a fire will last for hours.

That is strange, we have the same cylinder stove in our Elk season group tent and it works great. My personal wall tent has a 4 Dog Stove.

FWIW, If you are not packing in this may be a possibility. A buddy we hunt with in Colorado built a stacked barrel stove with the wood box on the bottom and the stove pipe passing through the top barrel that worked as an oven. The top oven part had a wire shelf to hold large trays of whatever meals need heating. Not too tough to build and not that heavy either,

First guy back at the end of the day, stuck in a home prepared pan of lasagna or whatever and sat back with a cold brew. Everybody brought 2 meals and we were good for the week.

When your all whooped it is really nice to take cooking dinner out of play.

I have one of those multi fuel stoves. It works great but does burn a lot of diesel fuel so we only run it a couple hrs. a day to heat the sleeping tent in the evening.
