To be quiet honest nickb i was gonna say the colman petrol stoves should be avoided...lol
as the blow up to easy with fuel spillage lol........
But you might already know that one lol.....

Ive got the PRIMUS SE gravity stove plus is duel fuel,which is the way forward my fruit,as they burn longer on the gas and the liquid in the cans and then its more easy on the pocket on gas prices...
My one sits just off the floor and has a wide base for all the pots to sit on,plus you can also fold the legs down..and came with a wind shield and floor plate to help it all heat up quicker..
And my one is 3000kw which will heat a litre of water in under 2 mins me thinks lol
Also i got my one for a steel price that most wont believe but the normal go for £50

here's a link on johnson ross site at my one..Well it looks like mine...

Here's another link....go check it its worth the look.....

Ok Nick, if youre looking for compact I would suggest this one. Ive got this for short day/overnight sessions and its the most compact cooker Ive found
The top dismantles in half and fits in a bag thats the size of the palm of your hand. You can use different sized cannisters on it as well for extra compactness.
Wronguns recommnedation is good as well, just depends how compact you want it?
