Explorer 14

I bought my Explorer 14 3 years ago to add to my new RV. The RV has an outboard 1/2psi propane quick connect. I fabricated my own 3' quick connect hose from a store bought 3' long, 3/8" female flair hose. I fitted 1 end with a 1/4" male quick connect. A cupla extension hoses later , and I was in business. Have used it boondocking for 3 years. Love it!! Boils water in minutes for dishes. Cooks anything like a home gas stove easily and with good heat control.

I purchased this stove online from Cabelas. I gave it a four star rating because i haven't had the opportunity to use it just yet. I have seen other people that have them and they say they work great. Upon opening the box I can see it's put together well and has removable legs. The windgaurd collapses down too. The windgaurd is thin and has small side wings that may prove to be a weak point but we will have to see if that is true. I purchased the reversible griddle to go with this unit and we will test it out on our camping trip to Wallowa mountains state park in Oregon. One thing I did find that I feel will prove most useful is a hard carrying case for this stove. I bought a Plano brand Sportsman's trunk some time ago for my truck. I thought that maybe it would hold the stove and what do you know it does. This is a Plano model 181976. See the pics. I think it will help protect my stove. Thank you Plano and thank you Camp chef. Two products that work well together!

I needed a cooking set up that was simple, easy to clean, and produced enough heat it would cook at high altitudes (8000 to 10000 feet). Started here, added reversible skillet/grill, levelers, folding shelves, and a cover. Everything is tough and heavy duty, yet manageable to carry from truck to campsite. I am now a fan
