    Comments about Coleman Camping Coffee Maker:

    This coffee maker works as well as, and exactly like, a home electric drip coffee maker. Coleman's description makes it sound like it will only work on one of their camp stoves, but I just used this coffee maker on a motorhome stove on a trip from Ohio to Alaska and it worked perfectly. I suppose a down side may be that it doesn't have a warming plate, but warming plates cause the coffee to evaporate and get bitter, so having to use a thermos is not really a con.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    Comments about Coleman Camping Coffee Maker:

    I purchased this coffee maker for my wife. It brews coffee as promised. Workmanship is excellent. It uses standard Mr. Coffee filters. I also purchased the carrying case, which protects the coffee maker during long, bumpy trips. I highly recommend this product. The only two cons are its weight and length of time to brew coffee. It probably takes twice as long as my kitchen coffee maker.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    Comments about Coleman Camping Coffee Maker:

    The product does everything it claims, is quick, clean, no grounds in your coffee - best camping coffee you can get. However, I walked away while it was brewing and destroyed the machine. Once it's done brewing, you must turn off the burner. Happened on my 2nd use. It's in the instructions, I just got distracted. If you don't mind watching your coffee brew, then this is an ideal maker. If you want the flexibility to walk away for a few minutes, this is the wrong one.

      Bought this coffee maker for our car camping trips. This coffee maker does everything it claims to do and it makes excellent coffee!!! It is a bit slow but definitely worth the wait for a cup of coffee without grounds in it. It's one of our favorite pieces of gear and an essential now. :)

      Comments about Coleman Camping Coffee Maker:

      This is great for the camp site, take on picnics, and pull off the road for a coffee break on long trips. Have used this in remote areas with no sight of a coffee house for miles, and in the back of my truck at football games. Quick set up, easy clean up. If you can get the Coleman single burner unit do it (only around $20), that way you can brew coffee at camp while using your two burner stove for breakfast. Also easier to bring single burner on picnics and travel. Just make sure the handle is always facing straight out so it won't melt. Also burner needs protection in stiff winds, otherwise it will take longer to make a pot. Uses regular paper filters. Enjoy.

        Comments about Coleman Camping Coffee Maker:

        Being a coffee junkie, I have tried every coffee press/gadget designed for camping. This is the best by far. Drip coffee the same you would brew at home. We use it over a Coleman liquid fuel stove when car camping, and it is as easy as it gets. The only drawback is that the carafe does not stay warm, so transfer to a thermos is a must. Small price to pay for deliciousness.

          Yes, it is slow. Yes, you have to keep an eye on it the last 5 minutes or so to keep it from burning up. Yes, you only get 8 cups out when you pour 10 cups in.

          I use mine in my trailer. I'm glad I bought it. It works better than a percolator.

          And the rancid smell it gives off when the reservoir is empty tells you when to turn it is finished!

          THINK ABOUT USFS POLE BBQ FIRE STAND 1ST

          Comments about Coleman Camping Coffee Maker:

          Meletta-type cones and filters at less than a pound does the same thing as this monster but takes ONE pot if you share GOOD enough to boil then pour into the cone and put cone back on the pot without spilling, otherwise one pot to boil water in, second to pour the coffee into. AND it takes up far less room, and contains NO breakable glass. For car camping I spoze it would be OK, ( still has glass -- but with USFS putting up so much fuss about open fires, I wonder how this would work on a BBQ type fire stand where the fire is so far below the bottom of the heated bottom? Not well, good thought, but cars only I am afraid. Also, nothing ever stays clean in a fire -- not durable because glass and hiking seldom mix well (but VERY DURABLE if Car camping where Glass can be stored safely. I rarely stay where USFS or BLM can find me without 40 miles of dust on the road (fire? what fire?) We don't need no stinkin' fire!. So in open campfire I've SEEN one of these and they DO look nifty, but heard the same complains I'd thought of: weight and glass. As the owners of the one I saw said: by the time it heats up enough to START a cup, you could have an entire POT using a cone and paper filters (Hint: use a #2 filter inside a #6 and a #6 or #8 cone --(I uses a #3 cone) never fill much above the #2, that way you keep the outside cone from collapsing into the fire as your pour the water into it. GREAT IDEA --> So Colman for car campers, Cones and PAPER cones for light weight unbreakable last forever coffee makers on the trail.
