Just got back from Woolies with the stove and heater and it seems to be pretty damn good! (Especially for £14.99)
I nipped round to Argos and got the 12 pack of canisters for £14.99 as well. £30 for a stove and heater and a few days/weeks worth of gas-good deal me thinks.
Tried the stove out and it seems nice and sturdy-good flame ring and has the electric ignition too. I put the heater attachment on and it does kick out quite a lot of heat. The effect probably wasn't as good in our kitchen as it would be in the tent and I reckon it will come to good use on those cold nights.
The only problem I could see was if you have kids you may want to think twice as the attachment does get very hot and the stove itself does seem to absorb quite a bit of heat too, but if you can garauntee those "sticky little mitts" won't get close then I'd definitely recommend it. (Though its only been tried indoors and not in a tent)
