Primus Atle BBQ & Burner Stove

Have not used but it is great alternative to our old Colman two burner. Looking forward to using the grill function

Grill removes for cleaning, stove top removes for cleaning, could use a 16oz propane prop to hold a 16oz tank upright though. Grease collection tray underneath, removable (nice). Can simmer, just work the knob slowly (slight delay, typical). I used Coleman 16oz tank (refilled from 5 gal propane tank, ok results).Would like to find a carrier for it and spare tanks; maybe sew up one. Fairly light with finger grip relief in center of edge for carry. Wish it were stiffer in design. Finish is okay, easy to wipe clean. Propane line is thick; maybe a little too stiff. Overall good design and ease of use; feel safe in letting other people use it. Only bug I don't like is location of piezo igniter button; it should be 90 degree to flat surface but where it is will allow a user to push on the stove without something to keep stove from being pushed around (and maybe off) a table, it should have had a finger hole to give the button pushing finger an opposing force. But nevertheless its a grill and single burner combined - perfect for car camping and spur of the moment picnic runs.

I love my Primus backpacking stove, but wanted to add more flexibility to my car camping arsenal. Since it is winter here, I probably won't get to use this for a couple of months yet. Expect the Piezo ignition to work very well. Sharp edges are not an issue for me. I did need to wipe away a little excess oil from the manufacturing process - not a big deal. I'm excited to give it a try!

I have not actually used the stove yet. I bought it as a backup for times when our electrical power goes out. It looks to be a well built stove.

I purchased this as an accessory for backyard cooking and family outings. Like previous reviewers I needed to soften some sharp edges of the cover with sandpaper. Also, I needed to shim two of the foot pads with rubber hose washers to balance the stove. The sheet metal construction evidently yielded to flexing but the stove is now balanced. Flame control takes a bit of patience and tweeking. The flame control is difficult to keep at a simmer. Overall, I like the stove despite the minor quirks because it is solid and the price was hard to beat.

I had read all the reviews so was prepared for the possible problem of finding propane to fit the connection. There is NO problem. All the current brands fit. No need at all for any contrivance. Buy whatever brand and hook it up. I was also worried about control of the burners...they DO go to a very very low simmer. I am not sure why others had a problem but we simmered chicken w/ peppers and red onions seasoned with peanut sauce and cilantro sauce and cooked pasta and everything was perfect. Also fried eggs were great and cooked sunny side up for breakfast. Only tiny complaint is the wind screen on the left side would not allow us to open the top of the cookstove initially but my husband bent it slightly and it opens and closes just fine. as far as the razor sharp edges...I am not sure what others are doing but there is no need to run your fingers along the metal . It is NOT a problem. This is a GREAT stove and you will love cooking on it.

Nice piece of gear for car camping. When you use the grill option the grease burns to the area below - which is unavoidable I am sure. I worry about animals being attracted to it at a camp site. We are going to try lining it with tin foil for easier clean up.

R V camping, Compact , Easy to pack away . Prefer the ATLE BBQ Stove over my Coleman

A heck of a deal for the price. Perfect for those spur of the moment picnics.

I've used this grill/stove on a 2 week trip camping in the Grand Canon. It worked well ecept for the instant lighting didn't work so I had to use a match. But everything else worked great.
