So far I've cooked several meals and boiled water on this stove, and works very well. The construction is heavy-duty (plate steel throughout) and the welds are all of good quality. The four steel tabs on top make an excellent platform for a wide range of pans and pots. For smaller containers the aluminum accessory plate works well, although heat transfer is definitely better when the cooking vessel is directly in contact with flames and hot gases from the fire. My 12" cast iron (Lodge brand) skillet heats up in no time when the rocket stove is at a full burn! The stove is surprisingly compact, and although perhaps a little heavy and bulky for back-country pack trips, it works very well for car-camping trips.
The steel-rod stand does an excellent job insulating the hot stove from any surface you place it on, and it's also quite stable -- I can set it upright in the bed of my pickup truck and not worry about it falling over when I brake or turn. Likewise, the steel-rod handle on the back side is far enough away from the body of the stove that it is comfortable to grip even when in full-burn operation.
Suffice to say, this is how I'm going to cook meals on camping trips from now on! It makes so much sense to cook meals and heat water using dry twigs you can find anywhere in the wilderness, or using a mere handful of dry wood you can bring with you for the trip. I'm going to retire my MSR Whisperlite white gas stove from general camping use, and use it for backpacking trips only . . .

Product description
This is the heaviest duty rocket stove on the market today and it's made right here in the USA! Putting it in a class of its own, this stove is composed mostly of 11 gauge cold rolled steel, leaving us no hesitation to offer a 5 year warrantee under normal use and conditions. Built with survival conditions in mind this 17 lb stove is built like a rock, while keeping portability in mind. When reliability counts you won’t be disappointed. When propane runs out and you don’t have any power, you will be glad to have an alternate source for cooking. One that does not require large quantities of wood to work efficiently can be critical. Wood works great but in conventional wood burning stoves a lot of wood is used for heat energy that does not go towards cooking the food. This Heavy Duty Grover Rocket Stove eliminates that problem entirely by allowing you to use small twigs, leaves, and just about any dry organic material to create good heat for cooking your meal. We knew this was important in the design of this product because often times large firewood is nowhere in sight when you may need it most. The Rocket Stove is primarily designed for cooking and not for heating large spaces. With this in mind the stove is designed to create even and direct heat on the cooking surface by using a specially designed insulation inside to force the heat out of the top, where your cooking tool will be situated on a sturdy cook top. For your convenience we've added a sturdy handle bar for transporting, and a flat tongue feeding port. This port is designed to allow air to draw from underneath the wood, giving plenty of oxygen to feed a hot flame. To better please our customers we’ve also included a FREE 7” square aluminum accessory plate for even cooking and for small pots or cans that normally won’t fit on other cook tops, as well as a Briquette Accessory. If you desire to order from Hawaii and Alaska, please contact us for additional shipping cost before ordering.

Seems like a well made stove. It's very compact, yet puts out a good amount of heat. The instructions are in Chinese, but it didn't take much to figure it out. The legs lock in both the open and closed position. You put denatured alcohol in the stove, tilt the stove and light it and set it down.…

People, this is a fantastic camp set.…

I have used it with 91% alcohol and Heat (yellow bottle) and it works well with both. Boiling time for a cup of water was about the same at 5 minutes @ 1500 feet.
I bent up a coat hanger to make a smaller grate for a smaller cup to sit, works well and fits in the case no problem.
