Works great! We got the carrying case, and I recommend you to too as there is no handle and the metal is slick. Carrying case works well. Make sure you read case review to find right one! http://www.amazon.com/Coleman-Medium-Stove-Carry-Case/dp/B00168YEKC?ie=UTF8&ref_=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_44 We got that one. Good stove, big and spacious. Could fit two cast iron griddles on it! I love Coleman.
