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:

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 have been using this stove for several years of car camping and I love it. I can actually cook - not just burn stuff like all my prior camp stoves. The heat reduces way down to cook eggs, pancakes, etc. without burning. It boils water very fast too. The stainless steel platform and enclosed burners make this very easy to keep clean. I can't think of a complaint for this stove.

Comments about Century Deluxe Stainless-Steel Two-Burner Stove:

The automatic ignition works... if your inside. I have yet to get it to work while actually camping. I bring it home and swear I am going to return it, and it somehow starts to work again. I actually would return it, but all the stoves I have seen seem cheap. This one wobbles, and while it looks nice, doesn't seem well put together. Its going to break, I am sure its only a matter of time.
My parents still have Colemans that they THEIR parents picked up in the 40's or 50's. They still work. Ill be happy if this works next season.

Comments about Century Deluxe Stainless-Steel Two-Burner Stove:

We have had this stove for 2 years now. The ignition worked fine out of the box and for our first trip. Our second major trip it started having some burner issues, nothing major. This year we got it out and started it up, testing functions before taking it camping. And it wouldn't light one burner the other was only partially lit. Turns out there was some sort of coating used inside the burner assembly. It flakes off blocking holes. Once we spent over an hour taking the entire unit apart and blowing out the burners, nothing quite like metallic snow all over the floor, the burners work great. Now we have a new problem. One of the ignition wires as cut too short. They had bent the metal crimp during initial assembly to make it work, but one flex while we reassembled and it snapped.

The up side, it runs wonderfully when it runs. I don't find the temp adjustment any more difficult than my propane range at home, in fact, this has better control. It is a little finicky, but you get used to it. It's super easy to clean. Yes there are sharp edges. This can be fixed, or just be wary.

Had I left this review before this last round I would have given it higher marks, but after spending so much time fixing something that's a design flaw, I can't do it.

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 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.

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.
