About Coleman
More than 100 years ago, a young man with an entrepreneurial spirit and a better idea began manufacturing lanterns in Wichita, Kansas. His name was W.C. Coleman, and the company he founded would change life in America. A man plagued with such poor vision he sometimes had to ask classmates to read aloud to him, Coleman saw a brilliant light in 1900 in a drugstore window that stopped him in his tracks. He inquired about the light inside and discovered he was able to read even the small print on a medicine bottle by the illumination. The lamps had mantles, not wicks, and were fueled by gasoline under pressure instead of coal oil. Soon afterward, Coleman started a lighting service that offered a "no light, no pay" clause--a big step forward for merchants who were burned by inferior products that rarely worked--and drew substantial interest from businesses that wanted to keep their lights on after dark.

In the ensuing years, Coleman expanded its product line well beyond lanterns. The company's current catalog is thick with products that make spending time outdoors a pleasure. There are coolers that keep food and drinks cold for days on end, comfortable airbeds that won't deflate during the night, a complete line of LED lights that last for years, powerful portable grills that cook with an authentic open-grill flame, and much, much more. Coleman has truly fashioned much of our outdoor camping experience, and expects to do so for generations to come.

(5 stars) - Oh My Gosh!
This is an awesome addition to all the "normal" / ordinary camp stuff we bring along. It was so easy to set up (instantly) and did everything and more than I thought it would. You have to try it! My lasagna came out perfect, muffins were great! bisquits better than at home in my big oven. I Just can't say enough about this little oven. Try it!

I have seen these ovens on store shelves most of my life. I was certain that a little aluminum box could not function as an oven. But recently, we were embarking on a 10-day camping trip, and I was going to need to bake while we were there. I am pretty adept at baking with coals from a campfire or a charcoal fire, but on the trip in question, there was a burn ban in effect. What to do? I got on Amazon and read reviews about the Coleman Camp Oven, and decided that if my original opinion was correct, Coleman wouldn't still be making this little gem.

I purchased the oven and it arrived when promised. We took it to the campground, and were totally amazed at how beautifully it worked. We baked brownies, biscuits, potatoes, cornbread and even gluten-free hamburger buns and rolls. Everything was wonderful. The oven was easy to set up and use. But it is not like baking at home in your regular oven.

Tips you should know:
> Only use the oven on a camp stove. Try to get your stove as level as possible.
> Start warming it up with a low flame, and increase the stove flame as the oven begins to pre-heat.
> Plan to use small bakeware. Coleman suggests 8x8 pans. Here are some products that we found worked well:
* Nordic Ware Toaster Oven Baking Sheet
* Ekco mini muffin pan for 12 muffins
* Fox Run Set of Four English Muffin Rings (for the burger buns) on the baking sheet
* MSR Blacklite Fry Pan
* 8x8 foil pan
> After your food is in the oven, you really need to watch the temperature gauge from time to time. The longer it bakes, the more likely you will need to adjust the stove flame to regulate the temperature inside the oven. This is NOT set-it-and-forget-it baking.
> We found that timing was pretty close to baking at home, as long as the temperature was constant.
> Try not to peek too often. Peeking lowers the internal temperature. Look when you need to & that's all.
> Clean up spills (outside and inside) as soon as the oven cools. Don't let gunk bake on during the next use.

The oven folds up quickly when it is time to pack up. We keep it in its original box, and it is ready to go!

I still love the thrill of accomplishment of baking using a campfire, but this little oven is a great addition for those times when a fire is not convenient.

May we all have many years of excellent campground baking! Happy Camping! Happy Baking! Happy Eating!

(5 stars) - Amazing
Love this little oven. It workes great, it is lightweght, compacts easily, and functional. My pies were amazing! I even made lasagne! If you are looking for an oven, buy this one.

(4 stars) - Added capability
This item performed pretty much as described. I have just used it over a propane stove twice and both time it worked well. I did a pot pie and baked some biscuits. The temp gauge is not accurate, but as long as you watch the food, everything came out great. It is more of a relative indicator rather than a gauge. I also used it to keep food warm while I was cooking something else, and it work well for that.

(4 stars) - Camp cooking
This wonderful little oven has provided our family with some great food while we were camping without having to use our dutch ovens. We've made triple corn casserole to have with dinner, banana nut muffins for breakfast and cinnamon rolls that pulled even the most reluctant out of their sleeping bags! Because we camp in a high altitude area, we needed to adjust the recipes and cooking time a little bit, but after a couple of tries, everything is working out just fine. This is a great little oven for those nice things that make a meal wonderful without all the fuss of building a fire or waiting for charcoal for dutch ovens early in the morning. Imagine hot cinnamon rolls with gooey frosting and coffee all done at the same time.
I would recommend this for anyone that enjoys some baked items on their camping trips without all the extra fuss.
