Bushcraft Essentials Outdoor Stove Bushbox XL

Product Information

Various notches allow for the Trivets to be inserted in different positions as required and ensure sufficient air supply between flame and cookware. Attached on top of the Bushbox XL Titanium it makes an excellent grill or provides a solid platform for smaller pots and cups.

You can also use it as a multi-fuel stove with petrol, however, we haven’t tested this yet as other fuel options have been easy to come by. The whole design of the Bushboox feels really sturdy and we’ve not encountered any faults in the months we’ve been using it.

Bushbox XL and Firebox: Important Things to Know

Over the past few months, we’ve been using the Bushbox as our primary stove for the two of us at meal times on trips. With the Bushbox XL Titanium, you are completely independent, as it can be used in many different ways and is suitable for natural solid fuels (twigs, branches, leaves, charcoal, animal dung) as well as for spirit burners (e.g. Trangia), Esbit tablets, gel cookers, etc. With the Bushbox LF you are completely independent, as it can be used in many different ways and is suitable for natural solid fuels (twigs, branches, leaves, charcoal, animal dung) as well as for spirit burners (e.g. Trangia), Esbit tablets, gel cookers, etc. Then if you’re using a burner simply slide the prongs into place and place the burner in place. This takes a little longer but in total it’s never taken us more than 1 minute to assemble.

Using the Bushbox XL with the prong attachments for the Trangia spirit burner Pros of the Bushbox Titanium The only issue I had with this is the dismantling because the edges of the metal are coarse and I cut my fingers twice. Well, I don't care so much because I was at home and outside I use gloves. The sides have little dents to secure everything in place and it was a bit difficult to separate the pieces because of it after the first burn. There are a few advantages to a hobo stove: less smoke, easier lighting, fewer combustion materials (here it is fairly versatile: wood, esbit system, even pellets because the holes in the base are small). It is a lot more discreet than an open fire, and it is NOT an open fire (these are forbidden where I live but here this would constitute a loophole). It is also a lot safer because the fire is concentrated in one area and the ash tray collector keeps it mostly in place. The Leather Pouch offers enough space to safely stow your stove and matching accessories, like the Trivets and Universal Grate. There is also room for our separately available Multifunctional Case Bushbox XL (Titanium).

The Bushbox XL is definitely on the pricier end of the scale when it comes to stove options. There is a lot of skill and technology that goes into making this mighty stove so it’s understandable. But if you’re looking for a budget stove, there are cheaper options out there.

The Bushbox stove provides me with the flexibility to cook using either wood, or my Trangia when speed or convenience is wished. Naturally, starting the stove using wood takes longer, but means that I don’t need to use my emergency denatured alcohol.
