Bought this as an fun alternative to a meths stove for camping holidays. It needs small pieces of dry wood - twigs are ideal. I use wood shavings to light it which is really easy. Gives a decent amount of heat - certainly more than a meths stove - but it's only small so don't expect a roaring fire. Lightweight and easy to carry, even when hot. I have used it on grass, and it just leaves a slightly brown / dried patch, which is acceptable on many campsites. If you put a couple of pieces of wood under it, it won't mark the grass at all. There is no integral wind shield with this (or similar) stoves, so you lose most of the heat in breezy conditions and it really needs a sheltered spot. Once lit, it quickly becomes almost smokeless, and leaves very little ash. I found that after about 15-25 minutes, the fire chamber starts to fill with part-burned wood. This will reduce to ash if left to burn out, but really needs to be emptied if you want to keep the fire going. This was only an issue for me when cooking for lots of people. In summary, it is fun, and much easier, quicker and cleaner than an open fire.
