This can be a serious debate among campers. The best stove for you depends on what is available to you wherever you live: stove and fuel. Go to a local camping supply store (or several stores) and find out what is available and the pros and cons of each. There is no point in telling you what I think would be good because you might not have the same fuel preferences or availability, and you might not want the same features on the stove that I would suggest (such as simmer control) as being necessary.

I'm traveling to South America and I will be camping there a lot. Can I bring a liquid fuel stove on the plane?

You can put a stove with an empty fuel bottle in your luggage that will go in your checked luggage (under the plane, not the carry-on luggage). However, if there's gas or any fuel in the bottle, there is no way they will let you bring it on the plane. So just make sure it is clean and free of any gas or fuel.

If I'm going backpacking, which camping chair should I choose?

I advise you to choose a small folded chair that doesn't take lots of room in your backpack while he's folded. In addition you should choose a chair that he's light-weighted so it won't be a burden while you carry it.

Do all camping chairs are folded?

The idea behind camping chairs is to make them easy to pack and carry so usually most camping chairs are folded if they don't fold they are not considered to be camping chairs.

I have a camping stove with two burners that weighs about 20 pounds. Is that normal?

It might be normal for very old models but is certainly not so in new models because it is not practical to carry a 20 pound stove on a camping trip.

I got out my old camping stove a colemans dual fuel I used to put in petrol but I cant remember how to use and I am giving all my camping things away, what does the dual fuel mean. I would love to get it...

The old Coleman Camp Stoves used White Gasoline or petrol. However, that is no longer approved and has been banned as a safety issue for some years now. With that said, you have a real antique and if it's in decent condition, is worth some money to collectors of old camping equipment. You may want to rethink giving it away (because, it can't be used as a camp stove any longer) and sell it to an antique dealer or collector.

I hope this helped you and thanks for choosing FixYa.
