How long does it normally last for one full propane tank? Say, if I cook for about 20 minutes every time, how many times can a propane tank be used?

It is a very efficient stove. You will not need to cook on high hardly ever. It will boil water in just a few minutes. You should be able to use it for 20 minutes more than six times easily.

Is it sturdy enough to set a cast iron skillet ontop of and cook food without worrying about damaging the burner setup?

Hello. I take this stove camping and canoeing all the time. I use a large, heavy, cast iron skillet with a 11" base, 12" top, 2.25" sides to do my cooking. However, to maintain a hotter oil temperature for frying fish you must cover the cast iron skillet with a lid otherwise the oil will not get hot enough to boil. I purchased a commercial aluminum lid for a stock pot to use. NOW, LISTEN CAREFULLY, the factory propane cylinder PLASTIC BASE WILL NOT WORK and IS DANGEROUS TO USE with this setup. The cast iron skillet I use is much to heavy for safe use and with boiling oil you are heading for disaster. Here is the SOLUTION for a larger, very sturdy base. Get a new or used 12" non-stick fry pan. Take the handle off (grind, bend, or unscrew). File any sharp edges. Drill a 3/8" hole in the center of the pan. Get (1) 3/8" x 1 1/2" or 2" long bolt (depending how deep the non-stick fry pan is), lock nut, 2 washers. Get about 6" of 4" diameter PVC plastic pipe. Get a 4" PVC plastic pipe end cap with a flat bottom. Press, or glue, the PVC end cap onto the 6" long PVC pipe. Drill a 3/8" hole through center. Now assemble stand: non-stick fry pan cooking side faces away or to ground. PVC pipe is now all 1 piece and rests on top of flat surface of fry pan. 3/8" bolt with washer goes inside pipe, through fry pan and is bolted with washer and lock nut making the entire unit 1 piece. DO NOT tighten the 3/8" bolt so tight that it splits the plastic PVC, just snug. The 3/8" bolt should not extend past the lip of the fry pan or it will not sit level. The 1 pound cylinder will fit inside with single burner stove attached. You have just made a much safer base for your Coleman single burner stove. "WARNING" You must still exercise EXTREME CAUTION and CAREFULNESS when cooking with this setup and especially when using HOT OIL (wear oven mitts when removing HOT skillet). You can vary the diameter of the base fry pan for sturdiness, or the PVC pipe height. The cooking surface has now been raised but as long as the ground is solid and flat, or the table sturdy enough, I have not had an issue with tipping. There is a small space between the PVC pipe and the 1 pound cylinder. You can wedge a small twigs in, or plastic, whatever works to tighten the cylinder so it does not shift around or turn while cooking. I pack the PVC and base as 1 piece but you can unbolt them if you have to make 2 smaller items. Best Regards, and Enjoy Cooking With Your Coleman.

How much does it weigh?

The stove is just the burner and the plastic base. Weighs a couple pounds. Very light for how well it cooks and how sturdy it is.

I’m really impressed with how well this camp stove performs - and its a very fair price for something worth the quality. The flame is strong and handles windy conditions without any issues, which is a huge plus when you’re cooking outdoors. Whether I’m at the campsite or cooking on a windy beach, I’ve had no trouble keeping the flame steady. It’s great to have a reliable stove that doesn’t fizzle out at the slightest breeze. The setup is incredibly simple and quick—just screw the propane bottle on, and you’re ready to go. No complicated steps or frustrating assembly. This stove is perfect for someone like me who likes to enjoy the outdoors without having to deal with complicated equipment. It’s also very lightweight and compact, so it’s easy to pack and carry on camping trips. As always, Coleman delivers with high-quality products at a fair price. I’ve always trusted their gear, and this stove has reinforced that trust. I’m confident this stove will last for many years, and I’ll definitely be using it on countless future camping adventures. If you’re looking for an affordable, reliable, and easy-to-use camp stove, this is definitely worth considering.

Le matériel est de qualité c'est pourquoi c'est cher.... obliger de payer car ce matériel ne se trouve pas en France ! Les bouteilles colman sont assez particulières donc pas le choix ! Cependant vu le prix je suis très déçu que ce rechaud avec le socle ne soit pas vendu avec La bouteille de gaz... La photo de vente montre le rechaud avec la bouteille de gaz c'est trompeur ! Demandez au vendeur de préciser que la bouteille de gaz n'est pas vendu avec !
