Sports reviews of Coleman 5010D700T Camp OvenCustomer Review: Works great for Big Camp.
No Big Camp kitchen is complete without this oven. For my wife and I, Big Camp is all about making great meals with a great view. Those dehydrated bag meals are fine for light weight backpacking, but if its Big Camp, then we try to eat well. Our Big Camp kitchen includes three Coleman Powerpack Single-Burner stoves, a GSI Pinnacle Griddle and this Coleman oven. Those single burners are lighter and more compact than the standard 2-burner stoves. I carry and organize it all in this Mountainsmith Modular Hauler 3 System. I can use the single 1lb propane bottles or a bulk 10 or 20lb refillable tank. We also use the GSI Outdoors Bugaboo Pots and I really like them. That's a serious camp kitchen even Alton Brown would appreciate. As far as this oven goes, it's always fun to use. I've had great success with tube cookies, rolls and croissants as well as brownies and quick bread mixes even at high altitude. I've baked a breakfast casserole just below treeline. 6/13 we baked cornbread to go with the fresh trout. 7/6 I baked brownies with it outside because I didn't want to heat up the house. This is no Viking Range. This is a rudimentary folding metal box, but it works. Baking with this can be an active sport and you have to pay attention. The thermodynamic properties of aluminized steel are beyond the scope of this review, but suffice it to say that one should not initially turn the burner on full blast or the box will not heat evenly and could warp. Likewise, one should not place this directly over a camp fire. For campfire cooking, get a dutch oven. You can make great things in those too. For this oven, I keep the burner low at first and let it all heat up slowly to about 200. I then turn up the burner and let it slowly rise to about 375. It then requires adjusting the stove burner every few minutes to keep the temperature even. By "even" I mean between 350 and 400. I haven't warped it yet. I looked at the Coleman InstaStart Portable Oven and the Camp Chef Camp Oven, but this simple box can't be beat for portability. I can carry three burners, a griddle, pots, hoses, propane and this oven in far less space than one of those ovens takes up. Maybe this winter, I'll make a cover to increase the oven's efficiency. I thought about using aluminized fiberglass ~something like this~ or simply just laying a Silicone Bake Mat over it. In addition to the GSI pots and pans, we also have some silicone bakeware because it's lightweight and smashable. We don't bring this oven on every camping adventure, but there is something really fun about this little "easy bake oven". P.S. It's generally a good idea to keep the camp kitchen away from one's sleeping tent. That's not always possible in developed campgrounds. We keep our camp clean, lock it all up at night and have never had a bear or raccoon problem. It's work, but organization is the key. I've found the Mountainsmith Cubes and Eagle Creek Cubes to be a great way of color coding all the gear. Happy camping!

About Coleman
More than 100 years ago, a young man with an entrepreneurial spirit and a better idea began manufacturing lanterns in Wichita, Kansas. His name was W.C. Coleman, and the company he founded would change life in America. A man plagued with such poor vision he sometimes had to ask classmates to read aloud to him, Coleman saw a brilliant light in 1900 in a drugstore window that stopped him in his tracks. He inquired about the light inside and discovered he was able to read even the small print on a medicine bottle by the illumination. The lamps had mantles, not wicks, and were fueled by gasoline under pressure instead of coal oil. Soon afterward, Coleman started a lighting service that offered a "no light, no pay" clause--a big step forward for merchants who were burned by inferior products that rarely worked--and drew substantial interest from businesses that wanted to keep their lights on after dark.
In the ensuing years, Coleman expanded its product line well beyond lanterns. The company's current catalog is thick with products that make spending time outdoors a pleasure. There are coolers that keep food and drinks cold for days on end, comfortable airbeds that won't deflate during the night, a complete line of LED lights that last for years, powerful portable grills that cook with an authentic open-grill flame, and much, much more. Coleman has truly fashioned much of our outdoor camping experience, and expects to do so for generations to come.
