I second (or third, or fourth TLDR all posts) the Camp Chef mountaineer, just got home for a trip and think it's actually faster than my stove at home!

Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

Looks like a great little unit, from what I saw, but that price tag! YIKES! My first 4x4 cost less than that! At that price, I'm sticking with my good old reliable $20 Coleman stove lol
EDIT: The first price I found when googling this stove was $1950! I just re-checked it and found $459 - much more sane. My initial reaction was in regards to that first insane price.

Yeah, I still have one of those as well. They’re like an electric stove compared to gas, it gets the job done but you’re gonna have to wait. I get (or used to get) a pretty hefty discount on camp chef due to working in the outdoor industry, that helped the price a lot.

Does it just have some kind of massive BTU output or something? Running on the same stuff, so the only real difference in cook time would have to come from a bigger/more intense burner.
I have to say, I've never felt like I had to wait too long using my Coleman. Boils the water for my morning coffee pretty quick. But hey, if you got one at a hefty discount and you love it, then more power to ya brother!
