The one with the grill?  Is it any good as it seems alot more money than regular stoves? Can you put the saucepan on top of the grill or do you have to swap between the two when grilling/heating up?

Any other advice re stoves appreciated!  Do you need the under grill or just better to get two ring?

Hi

We've got a two ring with grill but to be honest we don't use the grill very much, except for toast (which takes ages!). On ours you use the grill at the same time as the rings, its not campingaz model but one similar. I think we paid £35 for ours.

Hi Hevster, we got the Camping Gaz Camping Chef cooker. The cooker is excellent but the grill does take some time to brown toast etc but not impossible. The neat feature is that it folds away quiet flat and comes with its own carrying bag, very handy for those with limited carrying space. We paid £35 from Millets in Hitchin.

 we have the campinggaz stove with grill. its really good for transportation as it folds really quiet flat and has a good carry bag. its easy to put together and take apart for cleaning and packing. as said above... the stove is brilliant but the grill takes that long we dont really bother with it

Ditto regarding the grill - darn near useless - unless you hold the grill pan about 1" off the base (will be using a heat proof trivet under the grill pan next time ).

we has one, but the grille was pretty crap. took ages for the morning toast. we reckon thats where most of our gas was being used, so we bought a £5 electric toaster to do the job.

we have the campingaz one without the grill, as i heard they were not that good, and bought a jml griddle to go on the top which is excellent  and makes great toast very quickly and i can do 4 rounds at a time.

We've got the Campingaz cooker with grill and are really pleased with it.  The grill is probably only good for toast but my advice is to turn it around for even toasting.  Other than that it's been really good.  Look around for a good price too, I've seen it on the web for about £35 so it's worth shopping around

Have used ours twice so far as only spent one night in tent. The burners were excellent and as good as the gas hob I have. Did use the gril and didn't find it a problem but only toasted pre packed scotch pancakes under it. Cost £36 including bag.

Have brought a rack to do toast ontop of burner but have yet to use it. It only cost £2 so hasn't broke the bank it it's rubbish!

Grilled bacon sandwiches a delight.  I go with the previous poster that you will get faster cooking with a raised grid - turn the grid so that it is sitting high rather than sitting down in the grill pan.
