The Everest (earlier model, still can be found for sale) and the Everest 2x have different dimensions. If you haven't already, you might look up the Everest specs; it looks like it would fit in the Canyon box.

 

I keep my stove in an older semi dry bag, with my blaster stove. I used to put it in the dry box with the rest of the kitchen supplies but quickly found out it lives much better in a bag.

 

For the record, I have used many, many Partners and far prefer the Everest. Higher BTU, built in strikers, smaller profile, it will actually simmer. Maybe the new Partner is better and I like many things partner, but never loved their stoves.

 

I'm a Camp Chef aficionado, have three for 15+ years after fixing Partner stoves on several trips going back a LONG time. Why does a stove need to live in a dry box? Or dry bag? Mine live in a canvas bag w/drawstring carry handles under front hatch in mesh drop bag. They've survived 300+ days/nights in the Grand Canyon/Cataract/Lodore, etc. and never failed to fire up... Yeah, sometimes they get splashed but I've never had a problem.

Not dissin' Partner products, just don't care to use their stoves. Simmer was a problem on earlier models - besides just the "finicky-ness" - but they've mostly fixed that... Partner blaster puts out more BTU's than my Woodland's but doesn't pack as compact. To each his/her own...

But if your stove can't work after getting wet, what good is it? And if it does, about a minute after you fire it up, everything will be DRY.

 

It's not so much that I'm worried about it getting wet, as much as I juts run a fairly small boat so the more I can pack into a dry box and kitchen box, the less stuff I have cluttering my feet.

 

I'm not sure how much smaller it is, but the Bass Pro Shop high output two burner is my favorite stove by far - and I've owned Partner Steel stoves and used them at work for a long time.

 

There was a picture posted here about a year ago, of a super thin 2-burner stove. It was laptop sized. I’ve tried to find it again…but no luck. Does anyone remember which stove it might be?

 

Was it the GSI Pinnacle Pro? They look smaller than they are. I'd say well built. Nice and thin too. I carry two of them. Had to send one back on a warranty issue. Burner was like a rocket ship. Waaay too hot. But they replaced it no problem.

 

My Everest stove will just barley fit in a canyon box. I kinda don’t like it because it’s tight again the knobs and I kinda feel like a wile out could bust them. Guess it would t matter but I dunno I didn’t really like it. I still haven’t really figured out my kitchen. I had it in a dry box but hated moving it or unloading it. So then I got the canyon and it’s just a big turd on board. So I went back to dry box. Maybe the bag for the stove is good. My complaint was my dry box began to stink pretty bad and yes I cleaned it lol. Mine is the old one not the cool new aluminum looking one. The red one. I do think the partner that comes apart is the perfect size or it folds and or apart.

 

Yes, that’s it! Thanks a lot.

 

The Coleman classic propane is a great stove that is compact and lightweight. Its super efficient on fuel as well.

True…but they’re not Kool Kid tm approved. Why pay $65 for a perfectly adequate stove, when you can pay $250 for a fancy version? Pfft.

 

looks like the everest 2x dimenions are 25.2" x 12.7" x 5.6" according to the camp chef site

i picked up this stansport 2 burner model last year and couldn't be happier with it. its 2 burners are rated at 25,000 BTU each. i don't own a canyon box, so can't tell you if it'll fit - but the stansport's dimensions are smaller overall than the everest at 23.5" x 12.5" x 4.5"

hope that helps 🤙

 

I keep trying to convince myself to buy a couple of those new GSI Pinnacle stoves(two will fit in the slot in my kitchen, currently occupied by my Coleman...) But my crusty ole Coleman just wont let me down! It's approaching 30 years old, well used(abused) has fried hundreds of lbs of bacon, boiled countless gallons of water.
Maybe someone will steal it, so I can buy the new shiny.

I've never been impressed with the Partner stoves. They seem like a blunt instrument.

 

I've never been impressed with the Partner stoves.

You can buy better but you can't pay more!

 

You can get any one of them with patience on c.l. Or marketplace for cheap but will they fit in yer box? Lol

 

If Coleman would upgrade the look a bit, add a thermal barrier under the burners, and reduce the thickness by an inch, they’d have a perfect stove. I get it that they don’t want to burn the table, but they sure take up a lot of room in a drybox.

I actually started a project once to design a new stove that had a tough case like the Partner stove, but that used high quality burners, like a Camp Chef. After researching literally every stove out there, I came to the conclusion that it was just too hard to beat the Coleman in terms of compactness, weight, efficiency and burner control. The tooling to manufacture stoves is very expensive, and its really hard to source high quality burners and controls like Camp Chef and Coleman use. Plus, both Coleman and Camp Chef have very extensive safety testing. In contrast, Partner stoves literally use the cheapest, crappiest grade of burners available, which fail so frequently I'm surprise they haven't had some sort of product liability lawsuit.

Seems like I may need to buy a new Coleman(what are they, now? $50), gut it and build a sleeker case. 🤔
I've read reviews of the new GSI saying they can be a bit finicky...

 

You can run the old ones on propane? I have a few of them . I have on from my parents they bought in the 60’s lol! Pump pump pump…
Only thing I thinks dumb in these new one is the little arm regulator. I parkid all the money to do a hose to bbig bottle conversion but most times the littl bottle is actually more convenient. Whatayado? I do like the partner that folds and is two burners that’s a great way to have two that’s small but I won’t spend that much ever I don’t think. Be nice to have their water filter too but that’s as much as my mortgage lol

 

But Charlie…if there’s one undisputed, immutable fact in boating, it’s that spending too much on your stuff makes you a better boater. You’re always saying……..

 

You can run the old ones on propane?

short answer, yes. buy one of these converters

this will let you use the 1 lb propane canisters to power your stove.

once you get tired of those things, buy one of these hoses to let you use your normal 20lb tank instead

i still use my old coleman and this setup on occasion, but not as much now that i have a new stansport stove i mentioned earlier in this thread

 

So how does the adapter/regulator and your old Coleman stove compare in heat output to the new Stansport? Or compare to a Partner with the iddy-biddy 10k burners?

 

I like to look my best as I bash off rocks thank you very much!!!

 

I just took apart one of my GSI pinnacle stoves. are BTUs a reliable number? Are stoves really measureable or is it marketing mumbo jumbo. I understand pinon has more BTUs that aspen. but propane stove vs propane stove isn't as obvious.

this thing is very simple behind the scenes. I didnt take apart the actual burner, but damn, MFer is basic. I'm maybe might be headed to wal mart tomorrow. is there a chance I can get youtube famous for a side by side test? we will never know..

as an aside. this one apparently suffers from the same problem i sent another one back for. the ignitor wire is melted off on the left burner. I don't care about sparky ignitors because they never work in the breeze at sunset on the river... but i would rather the stove didn't damage itself.

did the left stove cook my dinner faster? or am I just hungry enough to eat a borderline bratwurst?

 

I'd imagine with these stoves the regulator is most of the BTU rating. So they probably figure out how many BTUs the other bits can safely handle and size the regulator for that.

 

It is, and it isn't.

The burner needs enough ports to get the gas out.
If you just dump more gas into a tiny burner, there's too much flow out the limited ports and it will literally blow itself out.
So more BTU's need both more flow from the regulator and more jets on the burner.

And the converse is also true. If you have too large of burner and not enough flow to it, the flame barely leaves the burner and doesn't spread under your pan--it is then more susceptible to being blown out by a stiff breeze.


I need to get my old Coleman out...the corrugated burner (as opposed to the modern tiny hole stamped burners) may let enough more fuel out for more effective BTU's.

 

I’ve found that without a regulator, a stove will really crank out the heat.

 

I kinda half heartedly try to build a blast furnace lol. A little one. I wanted to build knives cause iam ocd/adhd. It was harder than I thought and I started a couple fires trying. Finally a friend gave me a catalog with blanks for sale lol. I actually had this same problem when I bypassed a turkey fryer regulator. It would just blow itself out. Soggy turkeys not good fyi

 

Butchered stoves by Slaughter has a nice ring to it.

 

Or maybe The Butcher - the four burner model from SLAUGHTERSTOVES (I never met an alliteration I didn't like). I also envision SLAUGHTERSTOVES trucker hats with a burn hole in the bill.

 

I keep thinking I want a Partner, then I keep thinking I don't. They're just so damned expensive - worth it or not that's a bunch of scratch for a camp stove. I run an Everest off a five pound tank (perfect size in my experience; small enough for trips and costs the same to refill as buying one green bomb) and it works great once I'm able to get the fuel flowing to the burners, which requires initially placing the stove on the ground and leaving it there until said flow materializes. Charlie, there are bulk tank adapter hoses that include the regulator. No more little arm, which I agree is very dumb.

 

I've got a Partner 2 burner break apart. I like it but I'm not sure it is worth the money (and I got it before the prices went up). It simmers really well and 10k BTU/burner is fine because I have a blaster. I also have an Everest 2 that is a little worse for the wear. I've had to take it apart a few times and the igniter is out of commission with a cracked ceramic insulator. The extra BTUs are nice but the thing is kinda big. I've got a Coleman sitting around that I keep meaning to build a new case/enclosure for like Ben is talking about. Someday. Thanks ADHD. Now that I write this down I realize I might have a stove problem. There's also my Woodland power, multiple Coleman white gas, backpacking stoves....

 

The stove that burns is the one you use. I've been using the Coleman brand for decades now. White gas, which didn't put out enough BTU's to now a propane model with the hose attachment, has kept me in camp happy and trouble free for almost 30 years now. I can't seem to support spending the cash on anything else that's new and improved. But I also don't keep my stove in a drybox.

 

Truth is you can make do with anything and you could even cook on rock by a fire you made by rubbing two sticks together. It’s sometimes fun and sometimes an illness (yes Iam afflicted) to love gear. Gear of all kinds. Hang gliders and skis and turbos and sails and boards and boats even stoves. Shiny aluminum stoves that transform from big to small for 600 bucks! Love it! Now when your really weird like me you spend half your time wanting to try it all and looking for what I call a “broken dream” deal. Of course the dream was dashed on the rock sometimes for a good reason. I looked at a “wing suit with small stains in need of repairs “ just the other day and the wife said ,”you idiot that’s blood and he probably died in it” I said “yeah but it’s cheap man” so even though I have my dads 1960s Coleman stove in the garage doesn’t mean I wouldn’t mind trying another if it was a good deal lol! Everest fits in a canyon box but it’s tight and canyon boxes kinda suck so…
