Coleman Peak 1 Apex II Multi-Fuel Stove - One Hot Cooker!

by alexmd , May 08 '04
Pros: The Coleman Peak 1 Apex II Stove is adjustable, versatile, and affordable.
Cons: There is very little I can say against this stove.
Coleman Peak 1 Apex II Multi-Fuel Stove Introduction: Unless you are one of the most spartan outdoorsmen (outdoorspersons? outdoorspeople?) there are few things that contribute more to a pleasant hiking experience than a good hot meal at the ...

If your into reliability and easy lighting give the Apex a look

by mspeiller , May 27 '03
Pros: Rock Solid Reliability,Fuel Stingy and everything is included at a low cost
Cons: None so far
For starters,I purchased this stove on-line for $50 after comparing it with many other stoves. My immediate attraction was that for 50 bucks you get everything you need to get you cooking except the fuel which can be just about any liquid fuel. White ...

Ideal hiking/backpacking stove

by daletowert , Jan 04 '01
Pros: Simmer ability, ease of lighting (with practice)
Cons: Ideally needs to be protected in a pot or something similar
I’ve owned and used this stove extensively over the past four to five years, and I can highly recommend it. I bought it primarily because I liked the idea of a stove that used refillable fuel bottles – so I’d never land up not being able to get gas...

Combat Tested!

by demon , Sep 21 '99
Pros: Reliable and robust.
Cons: shaky legs that need a little extra support for large loads.
Let me tell you a little story about a soldier and his little camping stove. Awhile back in a land far, far from home (Bosnia), a soldier got sick of eating nasty chow hall food and MRE's. All his buddies had these little camping stoves that they...

Coleman Peak 1 Apex II, One of the few successes in the Peak 1 line.

by shaggydog , Dec 17 '01
Pros: Good simmering capabilities, built-in windscreen, stable, overall good design
Cons: Performs poorly in cold weather and wind compared with other stoves
Coleman, the leading name in camping equipment, has had relatively few products that have been embraced by backcountry campers. Even Coleman's specialty Peak 1 line, which was created with backpacker's in mind, has had few products that an advanced...

Its all I have left!

by kodoz , Jan 12 '00
Pros: Simmers, easy to light, stable, reliable.
Cons: None
With experience, I've slowly been replacing all the gear I bought when I started backpacking—with the exception of my Apex II. Five years later, this stove has held up with few problems. In that time, I've had ample opportunity to put my Apex up...

An excellent stove

by jakemedic , Dec 18 '99
Pros: Size and weight
Cons: Fuel Pickup
The Peak One Apex II stove is an excellent all season stove. I am an avid winter backpacker and demanded a stove that could work in all seasons. The Peak One Apex II stove meets these demanding requirements. It lights very easily at +80 degrees F or...

I'm Almost Out of Matches!

by melanie70 , Nov 22 '02
Pros: Light-weight, cheap fuel, great temperature control
Cons: Difficult to light in cold/damp weather!
I have been backpacking with my husband for almost ten years now, and we have used our Coleman Peak-1 Apex II every time we've gone on a hike. We've hiked over a hundred miles of the Appalachian Trail (approx. 16-20 miles per trip starting at the south...

Good performer, great price

by tkrispin , Oct 15 '02
Pros: small, easy to set up, lights easy, fine flame height control
Cons: proprietary coleman fuel bottle
Having done some camping in high school and college, I've been eager to get my young sons out to the local campgrounds for some weekend camping, with an eye towards self-supported cyclo-touring and backbacking later. This spring, we set out for some of...

Powerfully Precise

by epinionatorbob , Jul 09 '00
Pros: Excellent flame control, liquid fuel reduces long term operation costs.
Cons: A little rickety
As an avid backpacker and outdoorsman (I camp or backpack at least once a month and yes, even in the winter and snow)I have invested tremendous amounts of money in my equipment. Have you ever tried to simmer with a MSR Whisperlite? Well, if you are...

NOT A TYPICAL COLEMAN THING

by jrhaz , Aug 19 '00
Pros: Light, efficient, economical burns anything but wine
Cons: Starts a little wild but settles down. Do not use in a wheat field
I take backpacking pretty seriously and the first thought that runs through my head when I hear the word Coleman is "HAS GOTTA BE JUNK". Nothing Coleman ever produced has been taken seriously by me for backpacking use. First impressions are...

A great stove

by justinsmith , Oct 24 '00
Pros: Low maintenance, adjustable flame, easy on fuel, heats fast, uses many fule types, small, rugged, and dependable
Cons: Does not use common MSR bottles, needs Colman bottles
My Apex II and I have developed quite a friendship. I bought this stove four years ago. I chose it for its price, fuel versatility, and ease of use. I wanted a stove I could bring on long bike trips where finding white gas or gas cylinders might be a...

If You Like Lukewarm Food You'll Love This Stove

by kcc008 , Nov 29 '00
Pros: Reliable
Cons: Flimsy, Doesnt Get Hot
I used the Apex II for two years, and I can hardly remember one time that it heated water to a boil! I also found that the Apex II was flimsy, and hard to level. In the Apex II's defense, the stove did withstand considerable use and abuse on several...

Ack the flames are spreading.

by jckane , Aug 02 '99
Pros: Various fuel consumption.
Cons: Lighting difficulty.
I have to start by saying that all camp stoves have some issues with my main
critique of this Coleman product. So lets start with the good first. The Coleman Peak II stove has a built in wind screen which has been very useful. The product is...

All weather stove

by inland , May 08 '01
Pros: Varable flame height, adjustable legs, multi-fuel.
Cons: flare up at lighting.
I've used the Apex 2 for several years and it is my favourite cold weather stove.
I like the way the flame height is adjustable from a simmer to a roaring blaze. It boils a litre of water in about 3 minutes.
The multi-fuel option is nice but...
