excuse the spelling of bought my brain was ahead of my finger.  But whilst I was in the camping Shop there was a new display of two man quick erect tents, one was by OUTWELL, the other I can't remember but they looked like little boats. Real Cute.  A sort of pop up double skinned two man tent, reminded me of a life raft. Might be okay if your field floods, could paddle away maybe!

I have the fold flat 4 slice toaster and the Coleman dual fuel petrol stove. Perfect toast every time. I believe the petrol stoves output a higher temperature than the gas stoves, which makes this marriage of equipment work together. Just don't bother buying one if you have a gas stove, stick to the single slice toaster.

2kW is relatively low power for a modern kettle. Fine once you've got at least 10 amp EHU and no other heating device in use at the same time.

Definitely a good deal but out of stock at all the stores I have access to

I use a 2KW kettle. Just unplug everything else first!

Unfortunately all the local areas to me are also sold out.  I should have reserved them when they were there.

I found an Asda elecy toaster at £4.95, but all their kettles are 2 or 3 kw. That will def blow a 4 amp circuit! Might also blow a 10amp, if there is any variation in current or draw......

Im still looking for a 1kw kettle that holds a litre of water, if anyone has any recommendations?

I bought the Argos mesh toaster which I've just used on my weekend trip. Having bought and tried the other stand up/folding 4 slice I was a bit dubious. anyway, it worked a treat and I was very impressed, just wished I'd read this site before buying the other one last year!

We went for the 0.4l (600w) one from Aldi for #4.99, it took just under 2 mins to boil and will make two cups or a quick reboil for two large mugs. What sold it to us was its small size making it ideal for hotel stopovers with no facilities
