All features · choose a category to filter
AIR · Cooking surface
26 cm stainless steel
Light, easy to maintain and quick to heat. Ideal when mobility matters more than maximum heat storage.
AIR · Combustion chamber
One compact combustion chamber
Open and direct: add wood and branches, see the flame and stay mobile with a total weight of just 4 kg.
AIR · Insulation
Single-wall, without firebrick
Deliberately simpler and lighter. This saves weight but stores less heat than Original and PRO.
AIR · Control
Directly through the fuel
Control the heat by the amount of wood and when you refill. Charcoal and briquettes are not intended.
Original · Cooking surface
26 cm cast iron
Cast iron distributes and stores heat more evenly – excellent for pans and Dutch Ovens.
Original · Combustion chamber
One large combustion chamber
More room for wood and embers, so you refill less often than with compact AIR.
Original · Insulation
Double wall + firebrick
The double wall and firebrick retain more heat and stabilise the draft.
Original · Control
Through wood quantity and embers
The robust all-rounder for regular wood fires. Charcoal operation and door control remain exclusive to PRO.
PRO · Cooking surface
26 cm cast iron
Cast iron plus adjustable airflow: an even cooking surface and the most precise temperature control in the range.
PRO · Combustion chamber
Two combustion chambers
Two separate paths lengthen the draft. PRO burns wood as well as charcoal or briquettes.
PRO · Insulation
Double wall + firebrick
Like Original, PRO stores heat with a double wall and firebrick, complemented by two adjustable doors.
PRO · Control
Volle Kontrolle + Kohlebetrieb
Only PRO regulates air through two doors, making it the most flexible choice for wood, charcoal and briquettes.

The final buying questions
What is usually still unclear before you decide.
I only want to use wood – is PRO still worth it?
Yes, if you want precise airflow control through two doors. If one large wood chamber and heat storage are enough, Original is usually the more economical choice.
Which model is easiest for camping?
AIR weighs 4 kg and is the most compact. Original and PRO store more heat but weigh 6 kg and 8.25 kg respectively.
Which cookware can I use?
The cooking surfaces measure 26 cm. You can use any cookware rated for open fire. Cast-iron pans and Dutch Ovens are particularly suitable.
What is exclusive to PRO?
Two combustion chambers, two adjustable doors and operation with charcoal or briquettes. Original and AIR are designed for wood and biomass.
Is Oranje technically different?
No. Oranje is a special PRO colour for our Dutch friends; construction and functions are identical.
Your use decides, not the largest model.
Choose AIR for mobility, Original for heat storage or PRO for full control and charcoal operation.
