The Coleman® Fold 'N Go two-burner stove is approximately 25% more compact than traditional two-burner stoves, for easy portability!

  • Although smaller, it is every bit as powerful, delivering 10,000 BTUs per side, the same power rating as many Coleman stoves
  • Each burner is fully adjustable from a fine simmer to all-out boiling and frying temperatures
  • The 13-inch spread between burners accommodates large skillets and pots, making the stove perfect for camping, picnics and patio usage
  • Chrome-plated heavy-gauge wire grates support a variety of pot sizes; aluminized steel cooking surfaces make clean-up a cinch
  • Plus, the electronic ignition brings push-button ease to lighting burners, which in turn are easily managed by dual control knobs
  • Uses standard 16.4-ounce propane cylinders (not included); features a pressure regulator for consistent performance thoughout the life of the cylinder
  • Due to flammable item shipping restrictions, we cannot sell 16.4-oz. propane canisters online; they are available at REI retail stores

Please note: We may not ship stoves to addresses in Japan or Korea.

Imported.

Comments about Coleman Fold 'N Go Two Burner Stove:

I really like my stove. I enjoy camp cooking and I have been able to grill pork chops and make couscous in the rain with this stove. However, wind seems to cut down the efficiency. I will need to design a wind shield. Using camping designed cookware with grooved bottoms, the pans stick to the grates without a problem, otherwise it is slippy with normal kitchenware. The temperature control has not been a significant problem for me.

The compact design is very attractive. For car camping or tailgating where stable tables are available, it works very well. It's a lot of caveats for this little machine, but overall I am still happy with its functional and mobile purposes.

Comments about Coleman Fold 'N Go Two Burner Stove:

We got this stove because it was on sale, and it works OK as long as there isn't *any* wind. Temperature is a bit hard to control, it tends to be either too hot, or off - hard to get it to simmer. The range of the knobs is too small to get good, repeatable flame control.

When windy, it's pretty much useless. So much so that on a recent trip I got a different, low end Coleman unit with wind shields and it made a huge difference. No more going through a whole propane tank per meal, I could now cook about 3 meals per tank.

Best Uses

  • Car Camping

Comments about Coleman Fold 'N Go Two Burner Stove:

We bought this stove because it folded into itself. We've been out of the camping scene for about 5 years and were going on ease. I hadn't tried it out before getting to the camp site and luckily I had my Leatherman with me so I could modify the spark starters so they would actually ignite the propane when the starter was pushed. It's a good thing I'm a home-grown MacGiver....... The curvature of the grate also was a problem in terms of stability for our particular coffee maker, which will require an additional grate on future trips.

As for the folding ability of the stove, a previous reviewer implied that the grates need to be unsnapped, turned over, and re-snapped into place to close the stove. Not true, you just need to make sure they are lined up properly and it will close fine by fitting into one another.

I though this was a great little stove, especially with the handy carry back with compartments for two fuel canisters and interior pockets for flat items (plates, utensils, etc.)

It works and I'l hold onto it until it dies, but I would have rather bought a different stove from the beginning.

Great Car Camping Stove

  • Stable

Cons

  • Poor temperature control

Comments about Coleman Fold 'N Go Two Burner Stove:

My wife and I use the Fold-n-Go Stove for car camping, and we love it. The 16-ounce propane canisters can be found anywhere and last a surprisingly long time. Setup, use, and cleanup are all quick and easy. Heat output is good, and the burners are spaced far enough apart to cook with large pots and pans.

We have not experienced many of the negative issues other reviewers have complained of. The stove does not include a windscreen, but we accept that as part of the compact design. As we use the stove for car camping only, it is as stable as the picnic table we set it up on. In that regard, we also place our cooler and other camping items around the stove to block the wind. Although stove performance does decline noticeably as the wind picks up, even with our makeshipt windscreen, this setup has worked fine for us. It just takes a few minutes longer to cook in the wind. Both burners provide even and equal heat output, and the pot supports are quite large and sturdy. Finally, though it is a bit pricey, we recommend purchasing the carrying case for the Fold-n-Go. We have enjoyed the convenience of being able to simply pick up the carrying case and go, knowing that everything we need for the stove is there, including two fuel canisters.

The only negative aspect of the Fold-n-Go is the poor temperature control. Although the flame control knobs adjust over a long range, they both have a very tiny range for USEFUL adjustment. In that tiny range, the flame output changes from very low to nearly maximum. It IS possible to set the burners to a simmering level, but it is quite tricky.

All in all, we LOVE our Fold-n-Go, and highly recommend it to our fellow car campers.

Comments about Coleman Fold 'N Go Two Burner Stove:

Great idea and I was excited to put it to use. On the first night the plastic handle melted due to the heat of the burner (plastic on a stove is never a good idea) also noticed poor temperature control (its all or nothing) - It does get really hot though.

  • Poor temperature control

Comments about Coleman Fold 'N Go Two Burner Stove:

Great compact design. I hate the fuel cansisters as they are non re-usable and they don't work to well if its at all cold. It takes forever to cook on it because the burner racks hold the pan or pot to far from the flame. Takes way more fuel than it should because of this. Then if you have any breeze it takes even longer. You add that to the fact that pots and pans want to slip off of the burners and that the whole unit is difficult to get stable it makes it a pain to use. I'll be using my 1964 Coleman white gas stove, like your grandpa's, that I got at an estate sale in '93 for 15 bucks for the next dozen years it looks like. It's rock solid and uses a re-fillable fuel tank. Guess things don't always get better than the old stuff.

Comments about Coleman Fold 'N Go Two Burner Stove:

Bought because of compact design for car/motor cycle camping.
Returned first for uneven flame on one burner. Food heated unevenly.
Second had same problems on both burners.
Returned to factory and spoke with rep. Factory sent third unit saying best they could do. Flame on one burner still uneven. Returned for refund.
Very sensitive to breezes.
It is a great design visually but just did not work for me.

Comments about Coleman Fold 'N Go Two Burner Stove:

I purchased this stove for one purpose: overnight kayak trips. Being more compact than the warhorse Coleman 2-burner white gas stove, it fits nicely into the hold of my boat. When backpacking I take a small pack stove or even an alcohol stove, and on car camping or cabin trips I generally take my liquid-fuel Coleman. But this stove works well for its intended purpose.

The stove performs well as long as it isn't windy, and an aluminum wind screen helps lessen that problem. Since my kayak adventures typically involve my cooking on a sand surface, stability isn't a problem. Temperature control is not outstanding, but I found it to be better than did many of the other reviewers.

Pros

  • Compact

Cons

  • No wind protection
  • Poor temperature control
  • Unpredictable flareups

Best Uses

  • Car Camping
  • Horse packing
  • Rafting

Comments about Coleman Fold 'N Go Two Burner Stove:

Its a great idea that needs refinement. We used it on a camping trip to Havasupi in the Grand Canyon. The stove fit perfectly in a duffle bag for a mule ride down to our camp. However the winds blew constantly and the stove places cooking pots high with no wind protection resulting in a high rate of fuel consumption. A field rigged wind protection system plus whomever happened to be cooking were in danger from unpredictable flareups. I returned the stove hoping for an improved variation in the future.

Comments about Coleman Fold 'N Go Two Burner Stove:

Despite it's portability and the cool design, we found it difficult to stabilize while cooking and stow afterwards - the removeable grills fit inside, but can be tricky to snap in place and can't be handled hot. Also, according to the manufacturer, you can't safely refill or recyle the propane cylinders - they should be discarded in the garbage once fully discharged.
