       Review: The  Bulin Foldable Windshield for Camping Stoves is a lightweight, fold-able solution to improve the cooking experience.  Most portable camping stoves such as the MSR Pocket Rocket 2 or the Terra Hiker Backpack Stove perform poorly when there are strong winds.  The wind will constantly blow out the flame, stopping the cooking process. That's where having a windshield will help.  The Bulin windshield folds out to create a barrier around the camping stove, improving performance and efficiency of the stove.  This windshield has built-in pegs that can be inserted into the ground for added stability.   Unfolded and laid flat, the windshield covers 26.7" x 9.4" (68 x 24 cm) and weighs 7.4 oz (210 g).  The length is fine for small camping stoves, but may not fully surround all camping stoves.  Pros: Lightweight and fold-able Ground pegs for increased stability Cons: Short length may not fully surround all camping stoves

    Review: The Bulin 5800W Ultralight Camping Stove is a lightweight portable gas stove.  The weight of the stove is 10.5 oz (298 g) and folds down to 2.6" x 2.6" x 3.3".  The Bulin camping stove comes with a carry case for easy storage and transport. The Bulin Camping Stove connects to the fuel canister with a tube, allowing the stove to rest directly on the surface.  This reduces the overall height of the stove, making it less likely to tip over.  The pot support stands are larger than most, providing stable operation for large pots.  The stove provides three burners, allowing a wider flame area and better spreading of the heat to the pot.   Setting up the stove is quick and easy.  Simply unfold the pot supports, connect the tube to the fuel canister, and light the flame.  The stove does not include a built-in ignition so a lighter will be needed.  This travel stove also includes an adjustable knob to control the flame. Pros: Lightweight and compact Large pot stand s
