Camp Chef

Everest 2X Mountain Series Stove

Everest 2X camp stove for group cooking

I purchased the Everest 2X based on feedback from other trip leaders in my non profit group. This stove works great for fast cooking for a group and our organization is using these stoves to replace Coleman stoves. The stove goes through propane faster than Coleman stoves however so bring plenty of fuel if cooking for a group in the field. Stove is easy to set up, light and sturdy in windy conditions. So far it is everything I could want in a camp stove, looking forward to using it on upcoming trips.

Great stove

We have used this stove for years and it's awesome. The power it has boils water in a very short time and it's pretty quiet.

GOOD GEAR

LOVE IT! It has worked great and has excellent manifacturer quality

So-so

We’ve been happy either our Camp Chef up until the last few months. Our stove is just over a year old and the propane totally blows out the end of the arm. In reviews, the replacement arm won’t work unless you have a sealing ring. So far, I can’t find that certain part. This was the most expensive stove we’ve bought, so we’re pretty disappointed.

Ever chef

Bought this because couldn’t get any stove fuel for my 45 year old Coleman and was on day -1 before hurricane helene. Worked like a champ, easy to set up, burns clean. The bottle set up is a little weird, but overall love this stove. We worked it hard for 11 days straight.

Works well!

I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

I'm pretty happy with the cooking I've done on this stove so far. Note that you seem to need a specialized hose to hook up a bulk propane tank - a generic hose I bought at a hardware store seemed to fit, but leaked dangerously. I've seen comments that the piezo lighter doesn't work at high altitude, but that wasn't the case for me at 7500 feet.

Great stove

A fine camp stove, quick lighting and powerful burners at 20,000 BTUs each. For comparison, the largest burner on a home gas stove is usually 20,000 BTUs. Folds up nicely and works flawlessly. A solid purchase.

Love it.

Great control of heat, easy starts and love the clip-down windshields. We did go through a lot more propane than on our last stove with burners turned up way higher than needed.

It’s a stove

This stove is about the same as anything else you would buy. It really should have a handle to carry it. The burners are nice and hot but I struggle when it comes to keeping it at a simmer. I’m not disappointed with it but nothing about it blows me away either.

Better than my kitchen stove

It set the bar so high, we now hate out kitchen stove at home. We can cook better camping than we can at home.
