What’s one of the first things I grab when it’s time pack for a multi-day backpacking excursion? My scale, of course. I’ve always had a specific weight limit I stay under every time, and I won’t go an ounce over. Not negotiable. Maybe I’m a little stubborn, but I’d like to think my passion for keeping my hiking weight in check will spill over into being detail-oriented on the trail as well. The better I plan and the more meticulous I am, the more enjoyable the trip seems to be. It’s amazing that my Littlbug Junior Stove never has to make me think twice. Can you believe it? I have a small camp stove that can give me hours of natural wood-burning firepower… and it weighs 5.1 ounces! It will burn alcohol, too.
I was always taught that part of the secret to packing efficiently is to not waste any space. The Littlbug Junior Stove is designed to fit INSIDE a rolled up sleeping pad. Whether I’m visiting a State Park, or exploring the wilderness, the Littlbug Junior Stove provides plenty of warmth and capacity to get me through the journey.
The Littlbug Junior Stove is our smallest and lightest stove. The stove is constructed with durable stainless steel, burns wood or alcohol, provides a stable and versatile cooking platform and is uniquely designed to wrap around a sleeping pad for easy storage and transport. Works with most commercially available alcohol burners (burner not included). Storage pouch available (see related products below).
Littlbug beats the competition! The Littlbug Junior Stove topped all other entries in a head to head field test of 11 small, wood and alcohol burning camp stoves conducted by BackPackingLight. (click on the BackPackingLight logo to view the results)

A Keeper
Posted by Mike on May 3rd 2022
I bought one years ago when an friend and I started going to the Boundary Waters. The Campsites are pretty devoid of fallen branches and limbs, but sticks, twigs and pinecones abound and this stove consumes that stuff so you can cook and boil water in no time. Not to mention it's small size and light weight.

Simple solid functional
Posted by James Fisher on Jan 28th 2022
I bought this little stove after it was Recommended by Ray Mears (a Bushcraft expert in the UK) he recommended the Little Bug Junior for its compact, simple and rugid construction also you can fit it all inside a Billy can along with the Tragia burner. Easy to assemble. I'll be using it this weekend for the first time hiking with my buddies.
Great shipping service as well thanks. -
Simple, effective

I have the Junior version and love it. Packs easier than anything else I've used and works great. Well worth the money.

Better than any other wood burner on the market
Posted by Unknown on Jan 25th 2021
I really like the fact that it weighs so little and assembles quickly. Anyone want to buy my highly rated stainless steel folds flat clunker?

Best twig stove I've seen.
Posted by Jack Voss on Dec 2nd 2019
In the outback, gear should be rock solid reliable. So far, in my experience, that means KISS, Keep It Simple, Sweetheart. Murphy's Law says that "Though leakproof tanks do, moving parts don't." Littlbug has fugured this out, and has designed a reliable piece of gear.
I carry mine as primary cooking source sometimes, and ALWAYS have it along as a backup cooking source, and for small camfires. I've given them as gifts to two other outdoirsmen, and recommended it to another. When the day is done - they work. Period. -
Over 100 days and still going strong
Posted by Alan on Dec 6th 2018
I couldn't be happier with my Littlbug Jr. I've got over 100 days and nights of cooking over this stove and it's never disappointed. A friend recently offered me a free Solo Stove but after looking it over and comparing it to my well worn Littlbug I passed. I don't know that it's possible to beat the Littlbug in terms of simplicity and design.

A great little stove!
Posted by SB on Aug 14th 2018
The Little Bug Junior is lightweight, very easy to store, assembles quickly, and with our Solo Stove, boils water in 7 minutes or less even on a windy day. We couldn't ask for anything more!

Impressed so far
Posted by dog.breath on Dec 28th 2017
Yesterday I tested it by making coffee in the back yard. It used a fraction of the wood I expected to bring about 400ml to boil, and did so really quickly. I'll be using this in my next outings for sure!

Great little stove!
Posted by BI on Nov 25th 2017
I used this with alcohol to make coffee and toast bagels at the same time. Works great!
