This is a scratch and dent, or otherwise blemished clearance item. Please check the tables below to see how we rate our clearance items.
The Alpaca Kerosene Cook Stove is portable, compact and highly efficient. Designed for outdoor use, it brings water to a boil fast and is fully adjustable for lower heat settings when desired. The Alpaca burns almost 16 hours on a tank of fuel and is three times more efficient than typical camping stoves. Its fuel gauge tells you just where the fuel level is at a glance. The Alpaca stove also burns lamp fuel (another name for kerosene), and fuel with citronella for insect control is fine, as well.
Unlike cheaply-made Chinese "butterfly stove" examples, the Alpaca stove is well made by a South Korean company in business since 1968, which specializes in kerosene appliances and clearly takes pride in the quality of their product.
The Alpaca is a compact, powerful and versatile cook stove with the durability to serve you well for many years whether you use it for camping, hunting, canning or emergency purposes.

“Great quality, and my research says this is the most reliable stove of its type. PHG was great and fast.”

| Bottom Line: If you’re a highly detail-oriented person, we recommend sticking to “R1.” But after a week’s use, the only real difference between one of these items and a brand new one will be the money you saved. |

| R1 |
Very close scrutiny is required to tell that the item isn’t brand new. Working surfaces may show slight wear; for example, the bottom-inside of a Bosch mixer bowl may show swirl marks because Bosch mixer whips are designed to “float” against bottom of bowl. Non-working surfaces (cabinet, control panel) look essentially new. Carton may not be perfect. |
|---|
| R2 |
Typically has a small scuff or mark on a non-working surface like a mixer cabinet or the top of a pressure cooker lid. |
|---|
| FR |
Mostly returned items which have been brought fully up to new-equipment performance specs at the factory. |

Demonstration items have been operated briefly at Pleasant Hill Grain. |
