This new oven is so slick and has so many uses. I have only run it on the disposable propane bottles, but it can be run off a bulk tank.
I was really impressed with how good it would hold the heat and how it is almost silent. We were running it for a few minutes and I thought it wasn't hot yet and I looked at the temp gauge and it said 370 degrees. the burners on top are much better than the standard double burners, they are 5300 BTU and Brass to resist rusting.
I think the insulation must be really good since it holds the heat great.
The disposable bottle will last about 6 hours on high for the oven, since you are not always using High, it can last much longer.

The Camp Chef 2-burner Stove and Oven (in a single unit) appears to be very well made (I bought one in my Amazon order but haven't used it yet per the following) and this is not a review of the stove itself. Amazon currently shows it as frequently bought with the "Camp Chef HRL replacement hose and regulator, 1 PSI". The picture of the latter item leads one to believe that it functions as a hose adaptor for a common bulk tank of propane (which come in varying sizes). Unfortunately this hose is not made for this model Camp Chef stove. The stove-end will not fit the fitting on the stove nor is a regulator required on the other end since the stove comes with one (known only when one opens the box). I'm returning the hose and I should say that Amazon's return procedures are quite streamlined.
The regulator that comes with the stove screws onto a stove-fitting through a hole in the back of the stove, and a small one-pound bottle of propane screws into the other side of the regulator. The correct bulk tank hose adaptor made by Camp Chef is called "Disposable Bottle Regulator Bulk Tank Hose Adapter" (Camp Chef's item number is HRDSP) and the stove-end screws into the stove's regulator in place of the one-pound bottle. Of course there is no regulator on the bulk-propane-tank-end of the hose and that end just screws directly onto the bulk propane tank. As of this writing, Amazon does not sell this hose. One can only speculate as to why the manufacturer didn't include one with the stove. It would have been much more convenient since I suspect the overwhelming majority of users do not restrict themselves to the one-pound bottles (recognized by the manufacturer since the box has printed on it that a 20 lb tank lasts 50 hours and the 1 lb bottle lasts 7 hours, along with a picture of the correct adapter hose).
Also, the indented hand-holds shown on the sides of the stove in the photo that is currently on Amazon's site are no longer on the stove as presently manufactured. The stove is portable, but not light and there is no convenient way to pick it up and carry it. I would suggest springing for the carry case (sold by Amazon) if you plan on carrying it a lot. The stove weighs 35 pounds and is approximately 21"wide, 12"deep and 17.5"high. Further, it's difficult to tell from the current photo, but the parts of the stove that look white are stainless steel. The burners are brass.

Love the oven and the burners. Excellent space between burners and using oven outside keeps heat load down inside trailer. Glad we found this product.
Knobs get very hot as does handle for oven, so please use with care.
I would have loved to have the tank adapter as part of the original product.
