Product description
The Petromax Hobo Stove in seven parts is a practical and efficient stove for cooking
on the way. The gaps in the side panels and in the grate of the stove offer an optimal
air supply for the fire. Thanks to this stack effect, the Hobo Stove efficiently burns fuel
and produces high temperatures on a small surface. It thus enables quick cooking and
with little effort even on the way.
