Comments about Century Deluxe Stainless-Steel Two-Burner Stove:
This product fits the bill for a practical easy-to-use car-camping stove. I have never had any malfunctions or mishaps and it's even survived a bad fall from about four feet high.
Only challenge is that the shiny finish does show dirt, grime, and grease quite easily; but then this also makes it easy to clean up.

Comments about Century Deluxe Stainless-Steel Two-Burner Stove:
The stove is easy to clean stable and heats very fast. I have found the lighter to be a little hard to use. That is not uncommon on propane stoves I have used. I used the stove on a pack trip at 11,000 feet cooking for eight people. What a pleasure. We used one disposable bottle of gas every two days cooking three meals per day.

Comments about Century Deluxe Stainless-Steel Two-Burner Stove:
This is an update after the summer of discontent with the Century. [...] As the season progressed the temperature control seemed to get worse. I do almost all cooking outdoors when RVing so I put enough time on this stove to get used to it over many trips this year. It did not make the grade. I will try another brand.

Comments about Century Deluxe Stainless-Steel Two-Burner Stove:
This is after a summer's use with the Century: I wanted stainless for the ease of cleaning but the rest of the issues detract from what should be a good stove. Temp control will not go to low settings like my old Coleman did for gentle griddle cooking (bacon, eggs). Sharp edges everywhere which need to be filed down. The piezo lighting is about 50% reliable so take a lighter. I had a hose issue (my fault) and it cost me $30 to replace from Century ($15 part $15 S&H).

Comments about Century Deluxe Stainless-Steel Two-Burner Stove:
Very spotty temperature control. Trying to keep it at a low level is very difficult. The knobs have a lot of spring back, so adjusting the flame is hit or miss. I also found that after our second trip, half the screws holding the hinged parts together had rattled out. I had to take to stove apart to get to some of them. Re-attached them with loctite and they seem to be fine now. There are also a few sharp edges on this, so you need to be a bit careful when handling it.
Push button ignition didn't work out of the box, but that's no surprise with most camp stoves.
The stove looks great, but my 15 y/o Coleman outperforms this by a long shot.

Comments about Century Deluxe Stainless-Steel Two-Burner Stove:
I liked the stainless steel construction and thought it would hold up well. So far it has but as noted by other reviewers, the push button failed after a few uses and now I use a match/lighter to get my flame. Also, this thing is either on low or high, no in between. Should have stuck with the old reliable, a Coleman. I do like the Brunton as well. My buddy loves his. Like Coleman, they make quality stuff. I knew Century was a lesser brand but took a chance and am paying for it. Don't buy this.

Comments about Century Deluxe Stainless-Steel Two-Burner Stove:
I used this stove for seven days while camping and kayaking. All the edges were sharp, so I ground them down with a dremel. The hose adapter was difficult to screw in tightly. The auto ignighter failed to light the right burner several times so I had to use a lighter.
This stove is being returned but I will get another in hopes the hose will be easier to screw in.

Comments about Century Deluxe Stainless-Steel Two-Burner Stove:
The stove works good, but the construction seems a little cheap. There are some sharp edges on some parts. BUT it is a stainless stove that works good so I am not complaining.
