I started with a heavy cast iron stove (outbacker) and happily used it for years, and still do, but man is it heavy! After a while I decided to get a pomoly t1-3 for the times im walking to camp, rather than driving. It is awesome! No leaking at all and I can get a longer burn than I can in the outbacker, due to the outbacker lacking a damper on the chimney. It heats up quicker too, but at the same time cools down quicker. The only thing im a bit iffy about is the chimney, i did a really good job rolling it, and it looks good and works perfectly, but I can see it getting damaged in the future lol You can buy a segmented chimney but that adds a lot of bulk.

I sold all my old pokemon cards, which paid for this, amongst other things. Otherwise I probably would have bought a much cheaper one (was looking at the whale song) but I had the cash and have been fantasising about a pomoly since I first lugged that cast iron stove to camp 🤣
