I do all my cooking inside and I wouldn't mind having a third burner. If only for the coffee pot like Gina said. Then I'd have the other 2 for actual cooking.

3 burner / coleman oven

I frequently make use of 3 burners; just use small pots. For baking some brownies or cornbread, or warming up bread or rolls, the folding Coleman Camp Oven works pretty well. You just need to set it up, then preheat it and bake! It's cool!

No. I would not want a 3 burner stove. 2 have always been adequate for us. But of course, that's just us.... We generally cook outside on our Naptha gas Coleman anyway.

It is extremely rare for us to use more than one burner at any time. We had ovens in 2 stickbuilts and used them for pot storage. We do use a gas BBQ outside.

All my cooking is done outside on a 3 burner Coleman stove. It provides good space for larger pots but is a little bulky to pack. I've used the inside stove once or twice for morning coffee only. I don't really want to have food odors in the Boler as I camp in bear country.

Speaking of Bear Country...I did little cooking inside or outside while on my Alaska trip. I ate out or purchased cooked food to bring back to eat outside the trailer. I immediately got rid of the packages/cartons it came in.

As for the other suggestions I have looked at the Cobb set up and I would love to see one in person, the Nuwave oven has to have power and frequently we dry camp. Running it with the generator would work but doesn't seem practical.
I recenty saw a portable camping type propane oven in Costco. I think it would work very well except that is it quite small.

I wouldn't want fewer than the three burners that I have since I have a griddle that spans two burners, and I use it a lot. I also use a stovetop Camp Oven, although I'm getting ready to install a regular stove/oven unit that will make the stovetop oven unnecessary.

I have a 3 burner stove and have never had more than 2 on at the same time. I'd rather have more power burners than a greater number of burners, the output on mine is like 5-6K BTU which is really weak compared to my house stove.

This is Robert's main complaint.

I totally agree. and I've never used 3 at the same time





The problem with our two burner is that the burners are too close together. They should be offset from each other.

Wow, that's a lot of cooking!
I have a 4 burner and oven in the 17'. Use them all, but I've never used more than 3 at once. I try not to cook too much in the trailer unless the weather is bad. Love having an oven though - mmm nothing like fresh baking when you're camping.
