Given you can refill the Coleman bottles easily enough and also use a bulk hose adapeter sounds perfectly reasonable to me. We have the Northstar and the Blackcat and if you look at my gallery you'll see a propane stove with the bulk hose attached. This is the setup we are taking for 3 weeks to Europe. Just a couple of the one pound bottles & a 6kg cylinder.
Whether or not you are using it as an excuse, lol only you can answer that one.

Hi all

I cook with a Hi Gear 2 hobs and 1 grill with a regulator and gas bottle, works ok though I have Bought a Coleman Northstar and also a Coleman Black cat Heater

It would make sense if I also bought a Coleman Propane Cooker/Grill that way I would only ever need to use one type of gas bottle


Am I just looking for an excuse to buy something else ??



I bought this stove last year for family camping. It was brilliant as we did a full breakfast,sausages, bacon and tomatoes on the grill, fried eggs using the ring, and we used it rather than a BBQ. We also made several slices of toast on the grill. Ok there are other Coleman stoves and I considered them all then settled on this. I also have the black cat heater which came as a freebie but I haven't used it yet. This week I bought the Coleman Northstar lantern as I wanted one using same type fuel.    

Not sure I'd use the big stove just for me for a 2nighter though as I still have a case type and several cartridges to use up.
