The REI Member Dividend
The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.
Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.
Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Comments about Coleman 2-Burner Propane Stove:
I actually have the older style of Coleman 2 burner Stove, but the new design looks like it carries forward all that was good about the old design. Forgive me if I'm stating the obvious:
I originally had an MSR SuperFly backpacking stove, which is great in the back country, but when car camping, it's form-factor limits your cooking to what can be done on smaller, light backpacking cookware. This can pose a serious gastronomic compromise for foodies like us. The MSR was not made (nor should it have been) to support cast iron pans or big full pots.
The suitcase stoves like this Coleman can support a very large, heavy pan or kettle. So if you're car camping with one of these, you can raid your kitchen cupboards and pack your favorite cookware. The Coleman suitcase stove can hold a 12-14 inch pan or a full 10 quart stockpot easily.
My wife, who doesn't like surprises, expecially when camping, really appreciates cooking with pans she knows so well, and she can deal with other setbacks of camping more gracefully as a result.
One other thing to mention is the Coleman has a solid brass feeder tube and the classic Century stoves use a rubber hose. We got the Coleman because I though the pipe would hold up better than the rubber hose over the long haul, and this is probably true.
But having camped with friends who have a Century, the Century can work in much tighter quarters than we can, like the end of a picnic table because they can stash the tank wherever it's handy. The Coleman by contrast needs a lot of table space because the propane tank can only go in one place. The Coleman with tank installed is too wide to place at the end of the picnic table.

Comments about Coleman 2-Burner Propane Stove:
Having previously owned a Coleman two burner car camping stove for over 7 years (and still going). I decided to buy the newest model and retire the old one to friends and family. On a recent trip to the Olympics I was impressed by the new Coleman stove. From the large control gas knobs, to the new 'perfect flow" system I was delighted at my new purchase. I also like the fact that the side screens are more convenient to use than previous models. Also, these new stoves are lighter and easier to set up. I am sure that I will good use of this stove for years to come. The only reason I gave it 4 out of 5 stars is because It's not a self lighting system (piezo). Other than that, it's a fantastic stove!

Comments about Coleman 2-Burner Propane Stove:
Excellent value for a table top stove. Only con is that I had two replacement lines sent via warranty w/in the first 45 days. Hooking/unhooking the canister to pack away has a habit of bending the pin that pierces the canister fitting. Best idea is to leave the canister attached to the line and unhook line from the stove. They took care of it each time w/ no hassel from Coleman. Excellent stove..highly recommend.

Comments about Coleman 2-Burner Propane Stove:
This is a great group car camping stove. It's easy to assemble, carry, and store. It folds up thin enough to store in the tupperware container I keep food and utensils in. It has the same trustworthy design Coleman has had forever. It has never let me down yet

Comments about Coleman 2-Burner Propane Stove:
I had already returned three of these stoves[...] because of manufacturing defects[...][...] The left wind pane will not attach to the lid (manufacturing tolerances are off). IF you can find a Coleman stove that is manufactured/assembled properly, I understand that it will be a joy. But beware that finding such a unit seems to be a crapshoot. [...] the units coming out of China, at least so far for this purchaser (four units out of four) are all defective.

Love the fold out sides, great for getting pot handles out of the way. Big knobs for easy heat control. Thick grill bars allow for easy removal and cleaning.

Comments about Coleman 2-Burner Propane Stove:
Excellent Stove for the car camper. I have had this stove for 9 years and I have beat it up considerably, and it still works good as new! Very rugged and durable. Although there are stoves out there that provide more heating power, this one does the job at a nice price.

Comments about Coleman 2-Burner Propane Stove:
This was my first propane stove purchase and I am very happy with it. I did a lot of searching online and read various reviews and this was stove provides the most bang for the buck. Coleman is a hit and miss brand so I was a little reluctant but for my state park car camping needs, this stove works great! I marked a con as being hard to light...which it's not terribly difficult to do except it doesn't have an igniter and so you have to stick your match/lighter near the burner where you could get burnt if you aren't quick. All in all, I would def buy this stove again...but it's made well and feel it will last a long time.

Easy to use. Attach propane source, turn a knob and light. Can't get much easier than that.
