Trust me, I’ve been camping for over 10 years.

For the past 10-plus years, the camp stove that I’ve used was one that belonged to my partner’s parents, who got it secondhand from a friend and camped with it for years before giving it to us. It’s been an essential on cross-country roadtrips, helping us make breakfast on mountaintops and dinner in the desert. I love it dearly, and would advise anyone who doesn’t already have a camp stove to pick one up for their camp gear collection, especially if it’s on sale. While my particular model has long been discontinued, I spotted this very similar Eureka Ignite Two-Burner Camp Stove for 40% off at REI, making it only $75 right now.

In the 12 years that I’ve owned my camp stove (and the 10 before that when it belonged to my partner’s parents), portable stove technology has come a long way. Namely, most stoves now offer an auto ignition feature, which allows you to turn on the burners with the push of a button. With my trusty but old stove, I still have to release gas into the system and hold a match to the burner to light it. While it’s thrilling, it can be a safety hazard or just plain annoying if it’s too breezy out. With auto ignition on the Eureka Ignite, you won’t have to worry about fiddling with a match that’s quickly burning down toward the tips of your fingers.

While camping grills have grown in popularity in recent years, I love the versatility of a camp stove combined with a solid mess kit. My favorite part about my camp stove is the design, which has a lot in common with the Eureka Ignite. The fold-out windscreens protect the flames from gusts of air or rain, while the stove’s ample space can comfortably fit two pieces of camping cookware. Preparing a full meal is especially easy with the independently controlled burners, which allow you to boil pasta and simmer a sauce at the same time.

Despite the Eureka Ignite’s generous cooking area, the stove packs up to the size of a small briefcase. When folded up, it’s compact and easy to slide into the trunk of a car for your next adventure. It’s also made of the same thick-gauge steel as my camp stove, so I trust it’ll be just as long-lasting. So, if you’re ready to make all your favorite recipes at the campsite this season, grab a Eureka Ignite camp stove while it’s still 40% off at REI.
