Eureka Ignite propane stove

Is any one using one of these. I read up on propane stoves, because I wanted to replace my old Coleman 2 burner 413E that's served me well, but aging. I've been experiencing a lack of control of the flame intensity and heat control, which I'm sure can be at least part way cured with a rebuild. I've wanted to switch to propane for some time now, but have heard that even the new Coleman propane stoves suffer the same flaw - lack of control. You either get almost full flame or none at all. The reviews I read on this stove rave about how much better they are for temp control. REI was having a 20% off sale, so I ordered me one and just received this stove. Can't wait to try it out!

Well the one and only trip I've managed during this lockdown was a 3 days/2 nights off road jaunt and the stove itself worked flawlessly. However, even though smaller and more compact than my Coleman, it still takes up considerable counter space. So I'll be attempting to fab up an under the counter pull out tray that will also house the stove while on the road.

Would be cool if you could make it slide out to the side so you don't have to lean over it to access things on the counter

That's a neat idea! My plan is to have it slide out & be at 90 degrees from the sink. Sort of like a corner counter in a kitchen. At least it should free up counter space for meal prep. I haven't seen a slide that could do that, except for keyboard trays. But they're not big or strong enough to work for a stove.

Well, the good Lord provided a slide assembly that will work for this stove as I had planned. A couple of pics for explanation:

And when retracted, a secure place to store for traveling:

And I gain back valuble counter space and the storage spot should help keep travel damage to a minimum.
