EarthEasy sent me an EcoZoom Dura Rocket Stove. All opinions are my own.
This year Ryan has taken an interest in learning about sustainability, homesteading and emergency preparedness. Neither of us have any concern about civilization falling apart overnight or a zombie apocalypse or anything of that nature. Instead, Ryan’s interest in preparedness has come from an interest in becoming more self-sufficient and being prepared for a potential natural disaster, and so on.
I’ve worked with EarthEasy in the past to showcase some simple and natural gift ideas such as a wooden kids swing or gifts for gardeners. For this year’s gift guide I am recommending their EcoZoom Dura Rocket Stove to anyone interested in sustainability, emergency preparedness or even just camping.
The EcoZoom Dura Rocket Stove is small at less than 12 inches square. It is fueled off of wood or other dry biomass. It has been tested in developing countries and has proven to be durable for long-term use. It’s made with ceramic and metal with a cast iron top. The top of the stove is designed to hold a pot or pan of your choice for cooking just about anything you can think of. The Dura Rocket is energy-efficient and weighs about 13 pounds. The size and weight of the Dura Rocket make it reasonable to travel with while camping or even to keep in your vehicle for emergency situations.
From a campers perspective, having the Dura Rocket while camping can prevent you from being limited to just hot dogs on a stick each night, without having to use a camper to lose out on the more authentic camping experience.
I expect to use the Dura Rocket on our camping trips and to keep it on hand for emergency situations as well. Two summers ago we lost power for about five days and it was really tough to figure out how to eat without power to cook food, or power to keep food cold or frozen. The Dura Rocket would have been wonderful to have on hand that week!

This is a cool looking stove. How hot does it get for standing close enough to cook?

Neat stove this would be great on our camping trips or just to use here at home. I like this alot not to big and appears to be easy to handle and to use. I would use this just here at home as I love to cook outside whenever I can. Thank you for the contest. Good luck everyone.

That’s a very useful stove. Although it’s below zero during the day in North Dakota, we still enjoy going outdoors. This stove would make a great winter BBQ grill and hand warmer. We even have a cord of split elm to feed it!

This would be a great gift for those people that are hard to buy for or have everything. Very unique camping gift that would be fun for any outdoorsy person to try! Or just to keep for myself.
This is so awesome! I would love to buy one for my dad! We are struggling just to pay our essential bills though. Forget about medications and food.
