Bushbox: The Original for True Outdoor Adventurers

It's the stove that started a success story in 2012: Our original Bushbox, now in its fourth generation, stands for uncompromising reliability in the field. Developed from a passion for the outdoors and optimized through years of customer feedback, this stove offers exactly what you need on the go: independence. With just a few simple steps, the packable stove is ready for use, and thanks to a special locking mechanism, it forms a highly stable unit that will never let you down.

Whether on a solitary day trip or as an essential part of your emergency equipment – the Bushbox is so compactly designed that it easily fits into your pocket. Despite its small size, it generates enormous heat output through the chimney principle and the Coanda effect. It directs energy exactly where it's needed: to your cookware. This allows you to boil water for your coffee or a fortifying meal with a minimum of fuel, while heat radiation to the sides is reduced.

This stove is designed with the 'Leave No Trace' principle in mind; controlled combustion inside the stove ensures no residue is left behind in nature. Further, you are not dependent on gas cartridges, but rather use what the environment offers you – from twigs to pine cones. The Bushbox is a tool for purists who value "Made in Germany" quality and maximum flexibility with the smallest pack size.


Your advantages at a glance

  • Maximum mobility: Extremely flat pack size (1 cm depth), ideal for your pocket or EDC kit.
  • Resource-saving efficiency: Optimal fuel utilization through chimney effect, works even with small amounts of natural material.
  • Versatile fueling: Compatible with wood, alcohol burners (e.g., Trangia), fuel paste, or Esbit.
  • High durability: Made from 100% stainless steel (1.4301) for lasting corrosion resistance.
  • Secure stand: Includes Trivets for different vessel sizes or for use as a mini-grill.
  • Modular system: Expandable with the Bushbox Coupling Module or the Grill Plate.

Product Details & Technical Specifications

You can read in detail what distinguishes our original Bushbox at its core and why it has been the standard for years here. To protect the environment, we do not use unnecessary plastic packaging and deliver the stove in a light cotton bag. For long-term outdoor use, we recommend our durable Outdoor Bag.

  • Weight: 260 g (stove) + 10 g (Trivets)
  • Dimensions: 11.5 x 9 x 1 cm (disassembled) | 11.5 x 9 x 9 cm (assembled)
  • Material: 0.8 mm thick, high-quality stainless steel
  • Origin: Made in Germany

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Who is the original Bushbox best suited for?

The Bushbox is primarily designed for solo outdoor enthusiasts, bushcrafters, and hikers who are on day trips or minimalist overnighters. Due to its low weight and flat design, it is also a perfect emergency stove for a bug-out bag or glove compartment. It offers a self-sufficient cooking option that works independently of fossil fuel cartridges.

2. What fuels can be used and how is it operated?

The Bushbox is a true multi-talent: it can be traditionally operated with wood (twigs, bark, cones). Thanks to its design, it also serves as an excellent windshield for alcohol burners (e.g., Trangia) or as a holder for Esbit tablets and fuel paste. For maximum efficiency, you should place the stove on a flat, fireproof surface. When disassembling, note the locking mechanism: gently pull the short side panels outwards at the top to release the lock.

3. Does the material warp with high heat development?

We only use high-quality, 0.8 mm thick stainless steel (1.4301). With extreme heat, slight thermal expansion is a physically normal process. However, due to the special design with interlocking parts and the material choice, the Bushbox is designed so that after cooling it can be easily disassembled and reassembled at any time. The material thickness offers the optimal balance between weight savings and thermal stability.

Bester Kocher der Welt

Habe angefangen mit dem Titan LF Kocher zum ausprobieren kurze Zeit später kam der große Bruder in Titan der xl dazu was soll ich sagen noch besser er brennt nach ein paar minuten absolut russfrei
Habe auch sämtliches Zubehör das sehr durchdacht ist
mann sieht da sind entwickler dahinter die selber im Wald zuhause sind ganz grosse klasse
Wollte dann noch den xxl holen aber der war noch zum zusammenstecken daher habe ich lange überlegt und dann aber nicht gekauft als der faltbare xxl plus auf den Markt kam da gab's kein zögern mehr kein leichtgemacht aber für seine grösse ist alles wieder super gelungen
Ein original ist nur zu ersetzen durch ein original
Vielen Dank für die tollen Produkte die mir sehr viel Spaß machen und damit im wald oft bewundert werde.

10 sehr gut

Auf der Suche nach einem effektiv arbeitenden Kocher bin ich auf Bushcraft gestoßen. Nach eingehender und vor allem kompetenter Beratung habe ich den Outdoor-Kocher Bushbox bestellt, den ich bereits am Folgetag in den Händen halten konnte. Wichtig war für mich, einen Kocher zu erhalten, mit dem möglichst sicher ein Trangia-Brenner zu betreiben ist. Das Beratungsgespräch hat mich im Entschluss gefestigt, die Bushbox zu bestellen. Der erste Test lief erfolgreich ab. Die Brennerleistung steht in diesem Gehäuse einem Gaskocher kaum nach. Er lässt sich sicher zünden und mit dem Simmering leicht wieder löschen.

Great Portable Stove

I really like this stove. Only problem is initially it is a very tight fit and I have trouble disassembling it. Hopefully that will loosen up a bit over time. I know that my wife would not be able to disassemble it now. The small bag it comes in is OK, I would rather have a nylon bag.

[Comment by Bushcraft Essentials: It should loosen over time - as for the disassembly: please make sure you follow the disassembly procedure in the manual, there is a little trick...]

unzureichende brennkammer bzgl größe

Das Produkt taugt leider nicht. Der Brennraum ist zu klein, die Kanten sind scharf. Preis ist okay- Leistung nicht. Kochzeit von 0,5l Wasser min 10 / 15 min.
[Kommentar von Bushcraft Essentials: Die Bushbox ist ein sehr kleiner Hobo, gedacht als günstiger "Volkshobo". Mehr Leistung und größere Brennräume bieten unsere größeren Hobos. Auf unsderer Webseite ist zu jedem Hobo eine Vergleichsmatrix veröffentlicht, anhand derer leicht feststellbar ist, welcher Hobo was leistet]

Lightweight and strong

I had previously bought a cheaper Chinese wood burning stove which in itself is nice enough, but the Bushbox is a large step up. The Bushbox is a LOT more rigid and stable when assembled and the steel used is thicker and better finished. It is a lovely piece of kit, lightweight, compact, strong and feels like it was built to last.

Nice and solid, but a few unfinished edges.

It's well made and solid, but I've found a few spots look like unfinished welding which are sharp edges. My file cannot flat them, so i guess the material is tough enough for hard use, hahahaa.

Great Versatile Stove

This is great company with good communication throughout, the stove was shipped very quickly and received in excellent condition. the stove goes together very well although as new a little bit tight but that's expected. weight is very light and the whole thing is just so versatile using a Trangia style burner or solid tabs or even small sticks etc. fantastic all round.

handy and cosy

High quality product, and easy to assemble. Keeps the fire controlled (safety) and concentrated (useful for cooking). As it's made of steel it's not super-light but not heavy either. You may need some practice for disassembling the stove so your hands don't get completely black (or use gloves) :)

Kaufempfehlung/Ascheblech weglassen-mehr Brennraum/größere Löcher für Rost/wesentlich höhere Topf...

Nach einem Jahr und ca. 50 Benutzungen mein Fazit: Sehr brauchbar. Als Holzbrenner ein bißchen Birkenrinde, Harz, trockene Zweige und so, und das Ding brennt wie Sau! Das Ascheblech weglassen und man hat 20% mehr Brennraum. Mit Trangia bzw. Esbit-Alkoholbrenner Vorderwand weglassen und am unteren Einrastpunkt Topfauflage rein, dann bleibt eine große Öffnung für den Deckel zum Löschen oder Regulieren der Spiritusflamme. Die Löcher vom Rost würd ich mir größer wünschen., die Topfauflagen wesentlich höher. Mehr Hobo für eine Person braucht keiner. Gruß aus Köln, Stephan.

Great stove well made solid item. Fits nicely into the pocket. Would recommend

I like this stove a lot. Its well made, putting it together is simple and is really light and fits in a pocket nicely. I like that on the slots theres a little clip that the peices clip and secure into so when it's picked up it's solid. I like that I have options when using different fuels aswell.

It fits in your pocket but it boils water like a pro

This little stove is one of the best compromise you can find between portability and efficiency. It fits inside the back pocket of your jeans yet can help you start a fire and boil water in less than 5 minutes. So you can easily pack this for a trek, a day at the beach, into a survival EDC that you want to remain compact.

There are a few advantages to a hobo stove: less smoke, easier lighting, fewer combustion materials (here it is fairly versatile: wood, esbit system, even pellets because the holes in the base are small). It is a lot more discreet than an open fire, and it is NOT an open fire (these are forbidden where I live but here this would constitute a loophole). It is also a lot safer because the fire is concentrated in one area and the ash tray collector keeps it mostly in place.

Also the stove is quite stable and can handle a large pan easily despite its size.

Finally, the pieces are made of fine metal and where well crafted so that everything holds its place and the sides are not creased by the fire. This is why you should think about what price you put in these. The difference in price will be material dependent. This one is going to last long. I know they also make a titanium version which must be lighter. The design is very well thought of with holes and dents where you need them to handle your stove with a twig or a knife.

The only issue I had with this is the dismantling because the edges of the metal are coarse and I cut my fingers twice. Well, I don't care so much because I was at home and outside I use gloves. The sides have little dents to secure everything in place and it was a bit difficult to separate the pieces because of it after the first burn.

Apart from this, really a useful and lightweight solution for your camping needs.

In the video I did on my Amazon UK review, I show the stove in use to make charcloth (I didn't mention you need a hole in the box). It worked like a charm.

Or a couple of sausage, it's so efficient it only requires a little wood as fuel, have yet to use trangia , I love my little bushbox!! And highly recommend it!!

Superb Product

Amazing product. I used it the first weekend I recieved it when I was out wild camping. The build quality is super and I love how small it packs away. I would recommend to anyone that doesnt have the luxury of been able to use full open fires.

Klein, leicht, heiß und immer dabei.

Unglaublich leistungsfähiger Kocher bei äußerst geringem Packmaß und exzellenter Material- und Verarbeitungsqualität.
Besonders mit den Topfauflagen jetzt sehr flexibel und noch rauchärmer. Ich betreibe ihn mit Holz oder Trangia, beides geht super. Bei starkem Wind werden die Flammen zwar etwas "verweht", aber der Betrieb ist immer noch möglich, wo mancher Gaskocher schon streikt. Was mir am besten gefällt: Die Box ist immer dabei, wie ein Taschenmesser. Nie wieder Brennstoff schleppen! Material und Verarbeitung sind so gut, dass man im Leben wohl nur einmal eine Bushbox zu kaufen braucht. Obwohl: Eine für den Rucksack, eine für´s Handschuhfach, eine für´s Zelt...
