This little stove is just perfect! Details: When igniting (at the beginning) the device smokes only very briefly, as soon as you put a pot on it, the fire becomes active immediately and raises a very high heating temperature, which is even hotter than our stove at home. Then it smokes No more fire because then a high temperature is generated, kind of like glowing time. It's right that the fire shouldn't smoke, great. The higher the temperature, the less the small fire smokes. I have the fire with a leash I lit the Esprit and it was on immediately. Even with a small breeze, it works perfectly because the fire is protected in this boiler room. My soup was ready in 4 minutes. Coffee pan tin bucket everything works. The ash residue is very minimal. The product leaves no dirt The only disadvantage is that it is a bit unstable in the standing position. But you can regulate that yourself. It is very suitable for a single person up to 2 people outdoors. I give it 5 stars absolutely flawless. Great thing. When transporting, you have to be careful that it doesn't get crushed, if so, then there is a complicated bending process and it's probably broken. But you have to take care of this transport protection yourself.
