We bought one of those late last year and were pleased with it compared to some others.

Camperlands currently have them at £40  http://www.camperlands.co.uk/family-camping-stove/

I have one of those stoves, I only paid £40 for mine (but it was 7 years ago) and my local camping store has them for £40 still, (Outdoor World, Warrington).

The cooker is good, nice and stable, takes 2 decent size pans, not sure of the boil time (never take much notice), I found that in a slight breeze it makes the grill almost useless (distance between grill pan and burner).

Seems to run far better on propane than butane (only had a 4.5kg at the time).

When packing the hose can be stored between the grill burner and the base. There is also a version of this with long legs (not sure of price) but the design of this grill does give the benefit that the grill area gives a little extra hight, and makes it possible to be used on almost any type of surface.

Seems there are 1000's of people who have these cookers, so its definitely a tried and trusted cooker

If it wont move, try a bigger hammer.

I bought one last year for less than £40. I've used on a 2 week camping trip and several week ends. It has been a good stove the grill is ok for toast. Not very windproof but ok when used with a separate windshield.

Still one of the best sites is Best Camping Stoves. Click on any amazon link then search for
Yellowstone 3 Burner Gas Cooker With Grill

Only £27.50 at the moment with free delivery through the site.

Sorry I had one and hated it ... slight breeze and it blows out. Ended up putting mine next to the bins at Hillhead in Devon - hope someone made use of it!

I now have one like my original tilley, whereby its stillm two burners and a grill but it folds into its own case and was only £27 from Mountain warehouse.  This is similar to what I have and I love it ....

Did you try turning the regulator pressure up. We had the same problem and the delivery rate was too low, cranked it up turned down the regulator on the stove and never had a problem since.

Would highly recommend it personally.
