Best review on RUclips!! Gave me a great all around view and how to. I’ve been looking at this stove and a couple others. I was pretty set on this one and your review helped me make up my mind. Thanks Charles. You earned my subscription 👍
Glad I could help Dave. It has been a very good stove to me I've used it a bunch of times already. Plus I'm doing a conversion to a cap on the back of my truck for camping here in the winter. And I plan on using that stove in the inside that cap. Can't recommend it enough I hope when you get it you enjoy it as much as I have. Thanks for the subscription means a lot to me you have a great night.
@@barefootdave9081 well I've almost got that conversion done. I'm going to do a short video on it. And I'm going to do a few trips so you'll see it if you're subscribed to the channel and keep a lookout. Have a great night brother and thanks again for the subscription.
No problem Hope you sub and stick around. Sometime next month I will be reviewing a few accessories for this stove I recently got for it. Guarantee you will find it of interest if your buying one of these stoves. Thanks for your comment and views.
Great Vid! I had the danchel outdoor folding woodstove and the same thing happen to mine the side warped! So i decided to buy the Gstove and its a tank! Great review!
Despite the stove warping still works really good doesn't affect how it works at all. You're the second person to mention that gstove to me. Thanks for the comment and Views brother
Thanks for the review. I assume 20" is the assembled width. Is that the width of the legs when they are filled out, or is that the width of the shelves when they are unfolded?
@andrewpswartz without digging it out as best as I remember that 20'' is with the side shelfs out. The legs don't come out quite that far. I have more videos on this woodstove and some accessories, look on my page for the woodstove playlist.
There is a small gap, when you first start the stove and it is warming up the gap opens up a lil more as the metal expands. But once it is hot the gap gets small again. I hope that makes sence.
@rootstriker1618 I used the nomad in a Russian bear up 2 mini that's a 3 person dome style tent. this dome tent has 2 layers of fabric and holds the heat in very well. It heated it up no problem. in fact a few times it got downright HOT 80F and I had to open windows doors ect. for its size the nomad puts out a surprising amount of heat. Now with all that said lets talk about tents. I would say you could heat a 6 person tent without issue, but. Alot of this depends on the tent construction. Some modern tents are single wall and it is a thin material that doesn't hold heat well. Others are more like the canvas wall tents that hold heat better. Or something like my Russian bear tent with multiple layers. Now with all that in mind I think knowing what kind of tent, how big it is and how well it holds the heat in plays an important roll in how big of a stove you need. Also there is alot to be said about a bigger stove for a longer burn. Hope this makes sense.
I have a Nortent Gamme 4 ( specs on their site ) I have a Winnerwell woodlander medium and a large Nomad. The woodlander is fine. I think the large of this stove might be overkill. I haven't seen the need for it in my tent and have been out in sub zero.
Its a good idea to do so. Testing your stove to see if there is any issue with it. For me testing mine convinced me to do some modifications to it. Video of that is on my channel. Thanks for the comment.
Thank you for the great review, i'm probably going to purchase this model , only thing to decide is if I go for the Large or Medium ,I've got a Pomoly Hussar Tent with the netting partition so im thinking the Large size may be a bit of overkill.
I am not familiar with that tent, after looking it up it looks smaller than my Russian bear UP Mini. The medium Winnerwell stove not only worked well in my UP Mini but when I opened up the air to much it got downright HOT over 80 F. So I think that the medium will be more than enough for your tent.
The test needs to be provided in the winter time inside of the winter tent... and show a temperature on all surfaces and inside/outside tent...Thank you in advance
Been running mine with the damper at the top not the bottom. The whole pipe heats up better and the stove draws better, smokes less from the door and cleaner at the exhaust. I never used the damper anyway, door air control is better. Removed damper completely this evening, very clean burning
Just checked (2024) and the price is $6-700 USD. They do have fireproof mats as accessories, and also an oven box that sits on top. I'd make some 1/8" cable dog bones about 18" long to tie the arrestor off with. No chance that rope guys would burn that way.
@@2fathomsdeeper first of all I would be wary of the fireproof mat. I seen several videos one from Australia comes to mind of the fireproof Matt getting hot and melting. Secondly I reviewed the oven box it's on the channel. As for the Rope guys yes I made some wire ones and I've used them and it works fine. I've also reviewed a lot of other products from the company that makes the stove that go with it. Also if you catch it on sale you don't have to pay full price and they do have pretty regular sales.
Nice, I have a welding blanket I am going to use with mine. Added bonus is I can wrap the stove in it and put it all in a tote. Blanket adds some cushion protection to the stove while in transit. Thanks for the comment.
I was thoroughly enjoying this video until you started dragging that soot scraper against that steel firebox and making the most horrific noise ever. Dear god man!!!
@sparxy1968 LOL. Well now you know what to look forward to if you buy and use one of these stoves. Thanks for the comment will try and avoid things like this in the future. If your interested I have a wood stove play list on my channel that covers some accessories. Have a great day.
I have had the stove out twice so far. In the beginning it smokes but once its good and hot, like 30 minutes in there is little to no smoke. In this video I did chuck into it a small chunk of fatwood along with the shavings to get things going so that's probably what your seeing.
Can you say break out the Silky big boy?? I knew you could😂 can you say wake up every 2 hours to stoke it😂 but hey its cool!. It ain't no cast iron cook top like ol Bertha but its better than frozen goodies

Hi, yes for sure be good to see the accessories in action!@@charlesartificer2158

yes, simple and great review!!
Its a Great little stove, Thanks for the comment and views.

Good review. 👍
Thanks. I have a playlist on woodstoves on my channel. Alot of reviews on available accessory's for this stove and some things I came up with for it.
Great review !!
Thanks for the comment.
Just ordered mine with tge view. Hope the glass on the side ain’t no mistake. But love watching the fire.
I understand completely. Hope it works out for you!

@@charlesartificer2158 thanks!
Is there always a gap on the top? I can see the flames. Or is it unscrewed In the video some?
There is a small gap, when you first start the stove and it is warming up the gap opens up a lil more as the metal expands. But once it is hot the gap gets small again. I hope that makes sence.
I'm going to put some heat resistant roap around the inside edge... should make a better seal 👍
I can't decide between the Large and the medium. How big of a tent do you think the medium could heat up without a problem?

Do you need to 'pre-burn' it when it is brand new, unused?
Its a good idea to do so. Testing your stove to see if there is any issue with it. For me testing mine convinced me to do some modifications to it. Video of that is on my channel. Thanks for the comment.

I have used it in two different tents, videos are on my channel.
Been running mine with the damper at the top not the bottom. The whole pipe heats up better and the stove draws better, smokes less from the door and cleaner at the exhaust. I never used the damper anyway, door air control is better.
Removed damper completely this evening, very clean burning
Not sure what you mean by at the top. For the most part I have found mine to be clean burning, until I throw pine in it lol.
@@charlesartificer2158 damper control pipe as top pipe no 5 not no 1. Could be where I’m burning though, a windy hillside could be betterdraught
I would love to get this stove, i live in my bus and don't have heat but i just can't afford it, I'm disabled and can't work that much anymore
Keep an eye out on sites like craigs list you may be abel to find an older wood stove for cheap.
Nice stove Charles. For the money it seems like a good deal and it doesn't take up a ton of space.
Yes I agree, the only down side is the weight. Thanks for the comment.
@@charlesartificer2158 built to last though
@@heavymeadowdetective192 for sure, being stainless steel this thing will outlast my lifetime.

I have a big baking tray to go under mine..

This thing is priced so high in India. I want it so badly for my cottages😢
Sorry to hear that. I see a lot of diy videos come from India, maybe find someone to help and make your own.
@@charlesartificer2158 yes. That's what I will do now. 👍

Something wrong too much smoke coming out the box
I have had the stove out twice so far. In the beginning it smokes but once its good and hot, like 30 minutes in there is little to no smoke. In this video I did chuck into it a small chunk of fatwood along with the shavings to get things going so that's probably what your seeing.
Great stove in SHTF situation. Expensive but worth it. I own the small nomad view and the large
Can you say break out the Silky big boy?? I knew you could😂 can you say wake up every 2 hours to stoke it😂 but hey its cool!. It ain't no cast iron cook top like ol Bertha but its better than frozen goodies
I had it go as long as 4 hours before reloading it. works very well Im happy with it.
