As of today, I will have ordered and returned three of these stoves, all of which were defective out of the box. The first had a warped grate or stove top (not sure which), which prevented the grate from sitting firmly in place (it wobbled like a table with a short leg). The second and third both had deformed bases (stamped metal that wasn't stamped properly) and so did not match up with either the stove top or the lid, leaving open holes and jagged edges along what should have been a snug seam. If I were Coleman, I'd be pressing my Chinese suppliers for compensation for the consistently shoddy manufacture/assembly of one of my core products. I will look for something else at this point.
