{"product_id":"primus-essential-trail-backpacking-stove-kit","title":"Primus Essential Trail Backpacking Stove Kit","description":"\u003cp class=\"product-lead\"\u003eThe Primus Essential Trail Backpacking Stove Kit is a compact all-in-one cooking system for one to two people, combining a canister stove, a 1-liter anodized aluminum pot, a non-stick ceramic-coated frying pan\/lid, two removable handles, and a mesh storage bag in a single packable unit. The stove delivers 8,600 BTU of output and the entire kit weighs 13.5 oz, making it a practical choice for solo backpackers and two-person teams on everyday trail trips. Gas is not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eStable Flame in Wind and on Uneven Ground\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Essential Trail stove uses Laminar Flow Burner Technology, which positions the burner with a lower center of gravity than a conventional top-mounted burner. That lower profile means the stove and pot sit closer to the ground, reducing the risk of tipping on uneven terrain and keeping the whole setup steadier when a full pot of water is on the flame. Wind-blocking pot supports wrap the burner to shield it from gusts, so the flame stays strong and consistent rather than flickering out mid-boil, a practical advantage when cooking at exposed campsites or above treeline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOne Pot Holds the Whole Kitchen\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1-liter anodized aluminum pot is sized to nest the stove (still attached to a 230g canister) inside it for packing. That single nesting arrangement means the entire cooking system fits in one hand-sized bundle rather than loose pieces rattling around a pack. The frying pan doubles as a pot lid during cooking to retain heat, then flips over to serve as a skillet for eggs or other pan meals. Two removable handles can be configured for cooking or locked in place to keep the kit together in transit, and the included mesh bag keeps everything organized in a pack pocket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePrecise Control for Simple Meals\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA control valve designed for fine flame adjustment lets the cook dial between a rolling boil and a low simmer without overshooting. At full output, the stove boils one liter of water in approximately three and a half minutes, fast enough for a hot meal at the end of a long day without burning through fuel waiting. The kit is designed for straightforward backcountry cooking: boiling water for freeze-dried meals or pasta in the pot, frying in the ceramic-coated pan\/lid, and packing everything away quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLaminar Flow Burner Technology:\u003c\/strong\u003e lower center of gravity for a stable cooking surface and a more compact stove body\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWind-blocking pot supports:\u003c\/strong\u003e shield the flame in windy conditions and accommodate a range of pot sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1L anodized aluminum pot:\u003c\/strong\u003e lightweight and sized to pack the stove and a 230g canister inside\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNon-stick ceramic-coated frying pan\/lid:\u003c\/strong\u003e functions as a pot lid while boiling and as a skillet for pan cooking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo removable handles:\u003c\/strong\u003e configurable for cooking or for securing the packed kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMesh storage bag included:\u003c\/strong\u003e keeps all components together in a pack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eStove\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eFull Kit\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e4 oz\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e13.5 oz\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e4.3\" x 2.4\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e4.6\" x 5.7\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eOutput\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e8,600 BTU (2,500 W)\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePot capacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1 liter\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePot material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eAnodized aluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePan\/lid coating\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eNon-stick ceramic\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eServes\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1–2\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1–2\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eIncluded\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eStove, 1L pot, frying pan\/lid, 2 removable handles, mesh storage bag\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFuel\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003eNot included; fits 230g canister\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003eInvented in Sweden, made in Europe\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePart number\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003eP351150\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For and Isn't\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-yes\"\u003eThe Primus Essential Trail Kit suits solo backpackers and two-person teams who want a single packable unit covering boiling, simmering, and pan cooking without carrying separate cookware.
