No Like button Dan ! , It's the noise from gas burners that puts me off , when the fuel for a firebox is always available if you know where to look ! , Be Well my Friend .🙂👍
I sent the Jetboil Minimo back to Go Outdoors after three days as the piezo ignition was just not reliable. It was on offer for £105 about a year ago. Shocking quality at that price. I've now got an OEX Heiro and love it. Just for boiling water quickly. For cooking I use either my Trangia alcohol stoves, Soto Windmaster or my Optimus Polaris multifuel.
I have had the X2 for a few years now. i use it regularly. It has never failed me. No problems with the parts and I think it is just as good as a jet boil. If you eat the reheat hiking meals they fit into the pot better than a jet boil. The x3 looks to have a slightly shorter pot though. Totaly agree with Dan's assessment of this stove. It is a little jem. tip, the 500c cans fit the stand at a wriggle.
Yeah I've had one for a good few now too, was Chinese import £30 use it more than my Jetboil tbh, but the price of these firemaples aren't that far off jetboils now.
Another good honest video. I like the look of it and a good price. It will be nice to see you use it on one of your camps. As always, thanks and stay safe.
Thanks for taking the time to show us 👍🏻 Those type of stove always appear a bit top-heavy to me, I think I’ll stick to my tiny low to the ground fold-away one. I’d somehow knock one of those tall things over!
Nice overview brother! Looks like a good bit of kit especially when you want a brew first thing in the morning and don’t want to get the fire pit going again! Nice one mate 👍🏽👍🏽👌🏽😎
Cracking video again Dan thanks for sharing good to see what's out there instead of just the top named brand's which most of the time you're paying for the name 😀 👍
Bought one of these 2 years ago for £25, they're almost 3 times the price now! It's called Fire Star or Fire Maple, depending where you look. It's till going strong though. You can turn the neoprene cover inside out if you're no too keen on the luminescent colours, it's black inside. TIP: Pack each part with a length/strip of washcloth between each, stops the rattle and means you can pull each part out 1 at a time rather than pouring the bits out. Yes its noisy, but all jetboil-alikes are, but they are quick.
I'm with you Dan, I don't think it has to be real expensive to work. All of my gear came from Walmart except one piece and I bought a msr pocket rocket 2 and it works real good . It works just as good as the more expensive ones. I have as much fun with my cheap stuff as anyone else. Dwayne
This is a great piece of gear! You should add this with the Highlander Peak Weekender cookware kit and you'd be all set for your travels :) Awesome video!
Some day I may think on it but I'm fine with what I've got. It's good to see more affordable options out there eh Dan, that's what I like about your channel - no label snobbery just down to earth 😉 😀 it's time for me to get out more. A wild camp is required.
I bought the oex heiro and I like it because it’s smaller and is perfect for e-bike packing but I like this firemaple because of the pan stand I wish oex would make a pan stand for the heiro
Thanks Dan. I still use the OEX version of this. It’s identical. If you get the Primus 230g can then it all fits trust me. But you need to put the bits back in a certain order.
Hi Dan Thanks for your recent upload. I've got the coleman fyrestorm pcs stove which is alot like your new stove. Good design if you not Limited for space in your rucksack.
I like the look and idea of these stoves. But like some others, I’d worry about knocking it over! Just got the OEX Nova, lower to the ground. Good vid stay safe Dan atb 👍🦊
Good basic video Dan, much appreciated and will look forward to a full review at a later date. Looks like a good Jet boil knock-off, if it gets people out and cooking then I’m all for it, let’s not forget Jet boil was one of the first if not the first to produce these personal cooking system, they do all the hard work for others to come along later to tinker with the original to bring out something of a clone😂 Always good to get a notification that you have uploaded, ATB from deepest Dorset 👍
Bob on. I’ve had the X2 for about 4 years. Got it on a Planet X deal for £25, bargain and it’s been fine other than the piezoelectric igniter packing up.
These cookers may be quick but they are a bit bulky compared to a low down burner with a tube to the canister, will be watching with interest how it performs.
I got the fire maple polaris last November for the fishing this year and i just took it out and the rubber gasket has failed on first use and won’t pet gas through, they won’t let me return it now either. Money wasted for me, think i’ll stick to the little burners that screw in to the canister
That looks to be the exact same design as the OEX but in different colours? I almost bought one of them off aliexpress but at the time the OEX in Go Outdoors was cheaper (and I had vouchers :) )
Hi. Have you got an msr lowdown? Not cheap,but i reckon they make these type of stove more attractive because it wont be as tall, I dont know if I would have one of these systems, dont appeal, Ive used it with a pocket rocket tho Just an idea
I have a jetboil but don't get on with it prefer my £20 burner off amazon which sits on floor with gas canister to side, teamed with a crusader kit, gives a low center of gravity, safer for me.
currently 63 quid on amazon , the jetboil is 124 quid without a pan support which is an extra 19 quid .................so that`s £63 or £143 for essentially the same thing!! hmmmmm i know which one seems like sense to me
Love the fact you review/use a lot of budget options as well and not just hillebergs and Rab sleeping bags like some other channels
No Like button Dan ! , It's the noise from gas burners that puts me off , when the fuel for a firebox is always available if you know where to look ! , Be Well my Friend .🙂👍
Top man Bob thankyou for watching
Can’t believe your wife would shout at you 😂😂😂
After 38 years with my hubby I just look 👀
Loved the boiler really good design 💕
Have a great week
I bought a Fire Maple stove and love it.

Great review Dan i have this and its never failed me. Just bought my brother one as birthday gift as i love mine. Thanks xx
Another good honest video. I like the look of it and a good price. It will be nice to see you use it on one of your camps. As always, thanks and stay safe.
‘Hiding it from the missus’… still laughing, Dan!🤣🤣😉
Hi Dan I have the fire maple ztar x2 I got three different covers and aittle spoon to and I love it love the video keep them coming
Keep seeing these pop up on Amazon. Good to see that it’s decent.
Only time will tell mate some stove lasts years but other stop lighting after a bit
Fancy looking stove 👍
Enjoy your fantastic video like the gas stove I'll get one it's looks great thanks for a awesome video 👍
I've had one of these for years( Karrmor version branded but it is the fire maple) and never had an issue with it

I like it. Your wife has bought you a really good one. And stop trying to hide stuff when wives have the all seeing eye 😜 ♥️👍

Great I was wondering if it would fit an MRE, grand review lad, aw the best from sunny Troon 😅
Thank you for watching graema. Are you new to my channel??
Looks like a nice stove ! Cheer's USA
nice one dan 👍👍👍👍
Nice one Dan !😀
Thank you for keeping me employed shopping on Amazon. I left a like in exchange 🙂 the miss gets a like also 🙂

Nice 👍
Good to boil your brew with show us a nice steak next time. Have fun camping and stay safe.
The little bobble clasp pushes down out of the way.
I just brought one. I'm impressed but was under the impression the gas fits inside with everything else
A bit late I know, but apart from the colours it looks identical to a OEX Tecana?

Hi.
Have you got an msr lowdown?
Not cheap,but i reckon they make these type of stove more attractive because it wont be as tall,
I dont know if I would have one of these systems, dont appeal,
Ive used it with a pocket rocket tho
Just an idea
Nice 1 mate but my jetboil was cheaper 👍👌👌👌
Try your OEX pot on that stove, you'll find it's the same size... same Chinese manufacturer.
The alpkit brukit is half the price of the jet boil, but better build quality than most of the Ali express / Amazon jet boil clones.
hubby brought same one on third use the lever refused to shut the gas off. rather dangerous darent buy another
"Why do you stash your stuff?" Because we are married. I sneak stuff in and then try to swear blind that I've had it for ages
I have a jetboil but don't get on with it prefer my £20 burner off amazon which sits on floor with gas canister to side, teamed with a crusader kit, gives a low center of gravity, safer for me.
FireMERPLE???? Do you mean M A P L E ?
Seem you understood what I mean 😏
Unfortunately, not even a small gas canister fits inside. Which defeats the putpose of this system.
Are you sure you bought it?? I’ve seen loads of reviews lately. Which usually means they’re giving them away to RUclipsrs.
currently 63 quid on amazon , the jetboil is 124 quid without a pan support which is an extra 19 quid .................so that`s £63 or £143 for essentially the same thing!! hmmmmm i know which one seems like sense to me
