Camp Chef Everest 2X review

The Everest 2X is the most powerful stove on this list and the strongest choice for full group meals at a campsite. Camp Chef fits two 20,000 BTU cast aluminum burners, 40,000 BTUs in total, into a case that weighs 12 lbs and measures 24 by 13 by 6 inches, with 215 square inches of cooking area. Ignition is matchless, the temperature controls are appliance-style knobs, and the folding lid becomes a 3-sided windscreen. A stainless steel drip tray pulls out for cleaning, and a regulator for a 1 lb propane cylinder is included. Camp Chef also notes that its Mountain Series steel griddle fits inside upside down for transport. Two things count against it here. It costs $229.99, more than twice the Coleman Classic's list price, and the Camp Chef store showed it sold out on our check date, so you may need to wait for stock or buy from a dealer.
