The Trangia 25-6UL Non-Stick Cooker with Kettle is a great storm-proof, spirit burning, aluminium stove, ideal for three/four people. The Trangia is a lightweight stove making it fast and a reliable camping stove for the outdoors, in all weathers. Two windshields that fit together, a burner, a couple of pans, kettle, a combined lid/frypan and a handle. It is lightweight, needs no special care and is hardwearing. The Trangia stove is reliable, without unnecessary parts that can go wrong or be adversely affected by cold. The stove is quick to set up, and packs into a compact unit that takes up minimal space.
The silent burner has a simple, durable and safe design. Regardless of the weather, wind and season, it is easy to light. The spirit burner takes up little space and weighs less than a gas burner. The simmer ring is used to regulate the heat, which saves fuel, and is used to extinguish the flame. In severe cold, a winter attachment can be useful. A pre-heater is placed under the burner, filled with fuel and lit to warm up the burner. The accompanying, reflective plate is used as a base. The Trangia stove can also run on bottled gas. The Trangia range of accessories includes a gas burner and a multifuel burner.
SUMMARY: All-in-all this is a well-designed piece of camping kit. It’s fairly lightweight, heats up quickly, the fuel is cheap, and it packs away reasonably small. Just don’t expect a gig on Masterchef with it. This review would carry five hammers if it weren’t for the price tag for what is, essentially, a few bits of pressed aluminium.
