classic and does the job nicely.  Brings me back to my childhood.  The old design holds up well for camp cooking and puts out a ton of  heat.  The new integrated handle is very helpful in transporting the stove.  The stove is very compact and easy to get ready to cook.  It is well build and solid.  The valve controls are not that sensitive, so you may have hard time keeping stove lit with lower gas flow levels. (This is why I did not give it 5 stars)  I overcame this by using a slightly higher gas level and using my griddle to use for low heat. I am sure the higher priced stoves have more sensitive valves but I don't think it is worth the extra cost.  It is a hefty so this is for car camping. I love this grill and enjoy cooking on it.  Highly recommend for the price.
