Coleman Portable Camping Oven with

Really a 4.75 rating but... The folding portable Coleman Camp Oven exceeded my expectations, while confirming the positive reviews here. Assembly is very easy, just get the tabs and slots aligned correctly. Minor quibble with the wire rack, a bit too loose to my thinking. Secured it by pushing the sides around the slot inboard enough to pass a small paperclip U through the punched sheet metal loop. Two at opposite corners locked the whole unit together securely. Works, but a more elegant solution to follow. The red plastic door latch knob doesn't have an indicator for locked/unlocked position...can be improved by painting a thick stripe to indicate position. The idents in the door may not project enough on some units to hold the latching bar. I plan to add a small sheet metal angle with pop rivets for more positive stops in either position. Out of the box, it works but is annoying when one is about to remove items. Others have already mentioned the wire carry handle and offered various work arounds. I used a old broom handle cutoff with groove cut on table saw and expoxied. Cooking Tested on range top because of cold wet weather. Considering previous comments I tried a large ceramic floor tile on the floor of the oven...to big to allow airflow and too thin, less than 1/4" to act as thermal bank. Tried my Lodge round cast iron trivet which has a number of round holes, since it was something I already take on outdoor trips. Works reasonably well so far. More happy with it that dragging a heavy pizza stone around. RVers might not be concerned by the stone. Biscuits, cinnamon rolls, small pizzas all came out well after a few tries with adjusting gas heat source. Just as with built in ovens a thermamator is essential. Largest item so far has been a 3lb meatloaf baked in square heavy ga. steel pan. Came out great, nice and juicy with a bit of crust. A grill mat cut to size works very well to warm up buns, rolls and such. Seems to give more uniform heating without dropping crumbs to oven base. Excellent for roasting veggies. A quick tortilla snack with melted cheese and pepperoni and onions on the grill mat turned out with a nice crisp crust. Melted cheese runoff came up with the tortilla, leaving no mess. Can't wait to try it out on first camping trip. This folding oven is really quite amazing considering the cheap price, a real bargain.

Admittedly, I have only used this for frozen burritos and mini-pizzas but it has been a game changer for car camping. Super compact and works so much better than straight grill for frozen items. I do wish it came with 2 racks but really no complaints.

I love my new Coleman camp oven! My first trip out with this marvelous gadget, I cooked stuffed peppers, biscuits, a great pan of mac and cheese, muffins, baked potatoes, and a large cherry crisp. Since I have returned home, I have cooked a whole chicken, a frittata, a quiche, and several casseroles. Anything you cook in a home oven can be baked in this ingenious creation. Tips for successful baking: purchase a separate thermometer that you can slide down into a hole on the outer part of the oven. The built-in thermometer was inconsistent and often read 50 degrees cooler than my standard temp reader. Know that weather conditions will impact the oven's ability to self-regulate heat; it's best to stick around and monitor temp consistency if you are cooking in windy or rainy conditions. I've had no problems achieving a consistent 350-425 degrees using this item on my gas oven at home, but it's definitely more difficult to fine tune the temp in the wind. I covered the outside of the oven with a small, wet towel when cooking in the wild to maintain temp consistency and lower fuel consumption. Also, the more you open the oven, the more difficult it is to regulate the interior heat. Add a small pizza stone to the bottom for better heat distribution to avoid burns on the bottom of your dish. A standard size 6-cup muffin tin fits perfectly, and I use a 9x9 Pyrex pan for most other applications. On my first camping trip, I cooked all the items noted above, plus all other meals for two people, for four days, on two 1 lb canisters of Coleman fuel. Wishful thinking: 1. Two oven racks. The stove only comes with one, and I am having difficulty finding a second rack that fits. 2. A way to view the items in the oven while they're cooking. Opening the door to test the done-ness of the food requires re-regulation of the temp. 3. A stiffer hinged door. Wear a full sized oven mitt to remove items from the oven if your oven is at all not leveled. Otherwise, the door may swing closed and burn your arm. 4. A DOUBLE oven that could fit over both eyes of a camp stove! Double the fun baking while camping. I would buy this product 10 times over. It really turns car camping into sheer luxury.

I purchased this oven for us to bake bread and various dishes in the field. It arrived in perfect condition from Amazon and actually 2 days early. We opened up the unit and was surprised how hefty the weight felt. Good and solid but not to heavy to carry. Setup was a breeze with the fold out accordian style unit and it locked into place perfectly. My wife prepared a loaf of bread for baking on the Coleman camp stove we had to test out the new oven. We used an additional thermometer to gauge the accuracy of the built in temperature thermometer in the front door. In short order the temperature was at 400 degrees with our additional test thermometer reading within + or - 3 degrees! Nice! Even nicer was how well the loaf of bread had baked and it goes without saying that it passed the taste test as well. That represents a very accurate built in thermometer. This unit is vented in prinipal just like a residental stove. Being made of aluminized steel, it heats up rapidly and cools down just as quick so you don't have to wait a long time to store it away when you're finished. We are more than pleased not only with the construction of this oven but especially with it's performance. As with other coleman products we own, we feel certain that with proper care this will last just as long as our stoves, lanterns and other Coleman items we have. For the money and quality, it's hard to go wrong with Coleman.

Sure, it looks like a collapsible tin box, but this thing really works. I couldn't afford a portable propane oven, and they all came with stoves. I have stoves. But friends and family were amazed when it turned out perfect corn bread at camping. So was I. I read many reviews on this oven and picked up a couple $3.00 oven bricks for the bottom to regulate heat. Worked perfect. The next night I made an apple pie.(cheated with frozen crust, but hey, I am camping). The wind was picking up, and the heat was hard to regulate, so we moved it inside to the trailer and put it on the large burner. It was propane too. The heat was easy around 275* as is usually 350*in electric oven. But the pie came out perfect. Apples cooked through and crust browned just right. The next night I did root veg. They took longer, but turned out great. I put them in 2 small bread pans, and turned several times. I am so delighted with this low tech, light weight, compact, inexpensive, option, for baking while camping, that I can't wait for next year. But hey, it's a Coleman. I have seen that name on camp stuff for decades, since I was a kid. Almost 60 years. Bet you have too.
