We have been avid campers for over thirty years and there is no doubt in my mind that coleman camping products are heads above all their competitors! When we first began camping when our oldest was a baby, we started out with just a few items, and one of them was a Coleman stove. That stove traveled with us for almost twenty years, getting dropped, banged around, even fell off the roof one time. But it continued to work for us like a champ. We finally replaced it, though, a few years ago, mostly because it looked terrible with all the bangs and dents it had suffered. We have always used Coleman lanterns as well for camping. Over the years, we have seen many camping products come and go, but coleman camping products are still the best out there!
