Folding Firebox Nano Ultralight Backpacking Stove
Folding Firebox Nano Ultralight Backpacking Stove

Extremely unhappy with the Firebox Nano. Worse than useless.
The holes in the bottom are much too large allowing the majority of the embers to fall out rather than provide heat. The feed ports on the sides allow what few embers remain to fall out and are useless for feeding. As if all of that wasn't bad enough, there is far too much real estate wasted as legs and pot stand, while far too little is stove.
Basically a one hit wonder where you fill it with sticks, light it, then it quickly goes out. Maybe brings two cups of water to a small boil (tiny bubbles on the sides). Then you fill it with sticks all over again.
The whole point of any wood stove is to be a chimney: contain the embers and flames while providing convective airflow and focusing the heat on the pot. The Firebox Nano does none of these well.

You bet. Used a few times but other than a little soot, in great shape. Still have the storage bag, side sticks, everything it came with. How do we get in touch? Haven't seen PMs on MD.

As a pot stand for alcohol stoves it is a good option. Compact, stable, etc. I mostly use wood and vastly prefer the EmberLit and FireAnt with wood.
