    Product Description

    Camping stoves and other cooking accessories have made it possible to cook most things outdoors, but baked goods have always been out of the question. Until now, that is. Made of smooth aluminized steel, the Coleman camping oven lets you bake a batch of muffins, biscuits, or rolls right at the campsite.


    The Coleman camping oven is designed to sit on a two- or three-burner camping stove.
    The oven doesn't require electric or gas power to work. Instead, campers simply place the oven on top of a Coleman two- or three-burner stove, which provides all the heat you need to bake your favorite dishes. The oven also offers such baking essentials as an adjustable steel bake rack and an easy-to-read thermometer. And when you're done baking, the oven folds flat for easy storage. Made in China, the Coleman camping oven measures 12 by 12 by 12 inches (W x H x D) when standing and weighs 7 pounds.

    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.

    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!

    Great fun for your next camping trip!

    This is a great item if you want to have a little fun and impress your friends during your next camping trip. I used the oven in conjunction with my two burner Coleman stove. Unlike some of the other reviews, I found the temperature to be reliable and fairly easy to adjust by changing the flame setting on my stove. I tried two items during my recent trip -- apple pie & fudge -- both came out great. I suspect that some folks may be attempting to place this on an open camp fire, which I probably wouldn't recommend.
    Excellent for camping

    My old camp oven from Coleman was over 30 years old. I bought this one to replace the old one. These are very well built and perfect to use over a propane stove. I have baked chicken, cookies, cakes, pizza, and just about anything else you cold think of. This is a GREAT thing to have for outdoorsmen.
    Portable Camp Stove that really works

    Coleman has a reputation for delivering the great out doors and this product does that, it allows you to have an oven on your Coleman stove any where you need it, it also doubles as a food warmer. Face it, how many of you can get all the items in a meal cooked to perfection at the same time with only two burners. Yes, another stove would help but be realistic. This product is quick to set up and it cools down very quickly for packout after the meal is done. If you want a light weight addition to your galley or chuckwagon this item will do the trick.
    Works great for Big Camp.

    No Big Camp kitchen is complete without this oven. For my wife and I, Big Camp is all about making great meals with a great view. Those dehydrated bag meals are fine for light weight backpacking, but if its Big Camp, then we try to eat well. Our Big Camp kitchen includes three Coleman Powerpack Single-Burner stoves, a GSI Pinnacle Griddle and this Coleman oven. Those single burners are lighter and more compact than the standard 2-burner stoves. I carry and organize it all in this Mountainsmith Modular Hauler 3 System. I can use the single 1lb propane bottles or a bulk 10 or 20lb refillable tank. We also use the GSI Outdoors Bugaboo Pots and I really like them. That's a serious camp kitchen even Alton Brown would appreciate. As far as this oven goes, it's always fun to use. I've had great success with tube cookies, rolls and croissants as well as brownies and quick bread mixes even at high altitude. I've baked a breakfast casserole just below treeline. 6/13 we baked cornbread to go with the fresh trout. 7/6 I baked brownies with it outside because I didn't want to heat up the house. This is no Viking Range. This is a rudimentary folding metal box, but it works. Baking with this can be an active sport and you have to pay attention. The thermodynamic properties of aluminized steel are beyond the scope of this review, but suffice it to say that one should not initially turn the burner on full blast or the box will not heat evenly and could warp. Likewise, one should not place this directly over a camp fire. For campfire cooking, get a dutch oven. You can make great things in those too. For this oven, I keep the burner low at first and let it all heat up slowly to about 200. I then turn up the burner and let it slowly rise to about 375. It then requires adjusting the stove burner every few minutes to keep the temperature even. By "even" I mean between 350 and 400. I haven't warped it yet. I looked at the Coleman InstaStart Portable Oven and the Camp Chef Camp Oven, but this simple box can't be beat for portability. I can carry three burners, a griddle, pots, hoses, propane and this oven in far less space than one of those ovens takes up. Maybe this winter, I'll make a cover to increase the oven's efficiency. I thought about using aluminized fiberglass ~something like this~ or simply just laying a Silicone Bake Mat over it. In addition to the GSI pots and pans, we also have some silicone bakeware because it's lightweight and smashable. We don't bring this oven on every camping adventure, but there is something really fun about this little "easy bake oven". P.S. It's generally a good idea to keep the camp kitchen away from one's sleeping tent. That's not always possible in developed campgrounds. We keep our camp clean, lock it all up at night and have never had a bear or raccoon problem. It's work, but organization is the key. I've found the Mountainsmith Cubes and Eagle Creek Cubes to be a great way of color coding all the gear. Happy camping!
