2 Burner Stove Appraisal

Coleman Portable Camp Stove

The item is a Coleman portable camp stove, specifically designed for outdoor cooking. It features a compact, upright design, primarily constructed from metal, likely steel or aluminum, given its general appearance. The main body, which houses the fuel canister, is cylindrical and appears to be painted a dark color, most likely black or a dark green, with a slightly glossy finish. The base is wider than the fuel canister, providing stability, and has visible labels or stickers, possibly safety warnings or operational instructions, around its perimeter. The stove burner assembly sits atop the fuel canister. It consists of a metal support structure, likely plated or made of stainless steel, that folds out to create a stable platform for cookware. This platform appears to have four arms or supports. The burner itself is centered within this support structure and shows signs of use, including some discoloration consistent with heat exposure and minor grime, suggesting a used but functional condition. A control knob, dark-colored and ridged for grip, is situated on the side of the burner assembly, allowing for fuel flow and flame adjustment. The metallic upper components exhibit some minor surface wear and discoloration, indicative of normal use and aging; however, there are no obvious signs of significant damage such as dents or heavy corrosion. The overall craftsmanship appears robust and practical, typical of Coleman products designed for outdoor utility. The presence of a ruler at the base suggests its height is approximately 12-14 inches, with the base having a diameter of around 8-10 inches. The stove appears to be designed for use with a threaded propane or similar gas canister. While no specific model number is visible, its design aligns with portable gas stoves manufactured from the late 20th century to the present day, emphasizing functionality and portability. The 'Made in India' context suggests its place of manufacture.
