Go System Dynasty Trio Family Stove - Black

Very good looks good Handy to have

Not tried it out in anger yet, so the review may change.Firstly, be aware that despite the product description stating "It comes complete with a hose" it doesn't.What you see in the image is what you get - the cooker itself, with a stub to attach a hose to - you'll have to purchase the hose & regulator ( either EN417 or standard 904/907 type ) separately.( I've reported this error to Amazon, but they haven't corrected it )The stove appears to work OK - crucially, no gas leaks - and the piezo ignition works as it should....purchasers should be aware that although the hob burners have igniters, the central grill/toaster unit doesn't& has to be lit by other means.Edited to add :Having now used it on a 7 day camping trip, I can add the following...Boiling a 2L kettle takes only a couple of minutes.Cooking tinned foods such as beans, soup or 'all day breakfast' only takes a minute or so - had to keep the burner turned down very low to avoid burning the food.Ditto pan-fried bacon.The one let-down, though, was the grill....10 minute or more to toast 2 slices of bread or 3 crumpets is ridiculous, more so because it doesn't cook evenly.Out of interest, I dug out my ancient ( 40+ year old ) and long retired Tilley stoves and noted the following - one had runners which held the grill-pan an inch or so below the burner, the other had a far smaller gap ( about half the size ) between the base & the burner ( and had ridges to ensure the grill-pan is properly centred below the burner )I'll be experimenting to see how much of a difference it makes reducing the gap on this stove.Over the course of the holiday I used less than one Coleman C500 (500g) cartridge - I fitted a full one at the start of the week & there was still gas in it at the end of the week.....this was boiling the kettle 3-4 times a day, 4-6 slices of toast/crumpets a day & the contents of 2x 450g tins ( soup, beans, etc. ) a day.Given how long it took, the grill probably accounted for most of the gas use.

The promotional photo shows small cannisters as used in blow torches and weed burners as being used by this stove.They aren't. I contacted the seller and was informed that they had never opened a box to see that you need a regulator that is fitted to a gas bottle!What a waste of everybody's time.

Item arrived in good shape.Used it for the first time last week.Worked as I would have expected it to.Did a full dinner on it.I placed it on top of a camping storage unit which is waist high and cut the orange pipe to allow the gas bottle to sit on the ground.I may raise the gas bottle onto a low table to shorten the pipe to see if it improves on gas pressure.Otherwise very happy with purchase.

Many years ago I recall having to put something under a grill pan to bring bread closer to the heat source. So why with so many advances in everything does this cooker still have the same problem. I found my box of matches just the right size to boost the pan!!!

Light and easy to use brilliant bit of kit

Hinges weak and the electronic lighter failed to click and work 4th time pushed. Very disappointing.

Good quality
