Bushbox XL

Bushbox XL – The Efficiency Marvel for Great Adventures

The Bushbox XL is our powerhouse for anyone who doesn't want to compromise on cooking performance outdoors. As our second-largest folding stove, it is specially designed for longer expeditions, trekking tours, or cooking in groups. Despite its impressive size when set up, its unique hinge technology allows it to be folded down to a thickness of only approx. 1 cm. This way, it effortlessly disappears into your pack, whether on a motorcycle, in a canoe, or on your backpack.

What's special about the XL version is its enormous efficiency. With just a few small twigs, branches, or cones, you can boil water in no time. The ingenious design optimally utilizes the chimney principle: air flows in from below and generates enormous heat, which is concentrated upwards to your cookware. This makes you completely independent of fossil fuels and allows you to simply use what nature provides on site. The precise hinges are manufactured to ensure they never stick – assembly is done in a flash, even with cold hands or gloves.

In addition to burning wood, the Bushbox XL is a true all-rounder. It serves as perfect wind protection for alcohol stoves like the Trangia or provides a secure base for Esbit and fuel paste. In line with the "Leave No Trace" philosophy, it enables controlled combustion without damaging the ground. Made from 100% stainless steel in Germany, the Bushbox XL is a durable stove for anyone who values quality and functionality.
