Winnerwell Fastfold Ultralight Titanium Stove (chimney included)

Winnerwell Fastfold Ultralight Titanium Stove Titanium stove

Winnerwells hugely popular fastfold titanium stove is now available in an ultralight version with a weight of only 998 grams including the chimney! This stove is for the ones attracted by the ingenious design of the fast-folding stove, but at the same time want to save as many grams as possible in the pack.

Compared to other fastfold stoves, the stove is slightly smaller, with a measurement (assembled) of 325 x 152 x 150 mm. However, the size is so well proportioned that you can actually use/burn 25 cm long logs without any problems.

The chimney differs slightly in size from our other titanium chimneys. The chimney is included with the purchase (normally we sell the chimneys separately).

Use and design

Winnerwells fastfold stoves are ultra-light, collapsible stoves that brighten up life in the harshest of tent climates. The stove is made of the very light and heat-resistant material titanium. It is primarily intended for long-distance hikers, hunters, or why not pack rafters, who, despite their otherwise relatively heavy pack, want the option of being able to treat themselves to extra comfort in camp after a tough day in nature.

Winnerwell fastfold ultralight can be used in all types of tents that have a dedicated stove jack, for example Seek Outsides Cimarron tent and Luxe Outdoors Minipeak XL and F8e tents. In larger tents such as Redcliff, the size of the fastfold ultralight can be on the smallest side and you are instead recommended to choose a Seek Outside stove in size Large or SXL, alternatively a Winnerwell Fastfold Plus.

In addition to the fact that the Winnerwell fastfold titanium stove significantly increases the comfort and atmosphere of the tent, regardless of the ambient temperature, the stove also forms a natural base for cooking. You can easily make coffee on the stove or cook your food in the frying pan. By using the stove as a kitchen and planning your meals in a smart way, you easily save space and weight in your backpack. In your warm tent you’ll dry your wet clothes and boots and you can start the next day’s adventure in a dry and comfortable state. A stove is also one of the absolute best ways to prevent condensation in humid tent climates.

The stove can also be used as a firebox if you don’t put the lid on – this gives you the opportunity to use the stove as a regular grill instead of burning on the ground, which protects sensitive environments. As a bonus, you get significantly better combustion in the stove compared to if you had fired on the ground.

Good to know

When using the Winnerwell fastfold ultralight in a tent, it is necessary to have an understanding of the safety risks that a stove in a tent entails. Make sure there are no flammable items near or under the stove and also make sure there is an opportunity for fresh air to enter your tent when the stove is burning. Your tent must have a stove jack specially adapted for a hot chimney. All of our Seek Outside tents have such an opening, but there are many other tents that have their own chimney openings. It is always good to protect the ground under the stove from the heat, for example by placing a few sheets of aluminum foil under the stove. We also sell fireproof mats.

The first time you use your new titanium stove, it needs to be “burned in”. In this way, the chimney takes its final shape and becomes significantly easier to fold out and roll up. The first time you roll up the chimney, a little patience is required before it is rolled up.

Make sure to clean (soot clean) both the damper, the spark guard and the chimney after each use so that the parts do not soot again.

In very strong winds, we recommend NOT using this type of lightweight stove, as there is a risk that the chimney may bend and thus cause damage to the tent or, in the worst case, a fire. If you still want to use the stove in strong winds, you must anchor the chimney to the ground with the help of storm ropes (three attachment points are on the spark arrester), alternatively use a shorter chimney that does not catch as much wind.

Instructions for rolling your chimney the first time

ATTENTION! The first time you roll the chimney, be extra careful so that there are no dents on the pipe. Get the help of at least one person when rolling the barrel before first use. When the chimney is used for the first time, it is “burned in” and then assumes its final shape. So it’s only the first time it’s a certain inconvenience to shape the barrel.
