Chris Townsend of TGO applauds the Alpkit Koro Stove for its lightweight and efficient design. High praise indeed, as nobody knows camping stoves better than Chris.
The Koro is light enough for solo use year round and strong and stable enough for use by two or three too. It really is an excellent stove at an amazing price.
He particularly values its versatility, capable of accommodating both large and adequately wide smaller pots. The stove's unique preheat tube feature allows cartridge inversion in cold weather, emphasizing its adaptability. Although exclusively available through Alpkit and requiring a windshield, Chris sees the Koro Camping Stove as an excellent, budget-friendly choice for both solo adventurers and small groups.
