12 Plates Aluminum Stove Windscreen

I got this windscreen to make my camping stoves more effective. It indeed is lightweight- very thin plates make this very easy to pack. Some of this off brand equipment can be a bit low quality- but I would not say this about this windscreen. Although you would have to really fail exceptionally to ruin a windscreen. It is sturdy and come with its own carry bag that makes stowing away easy.I found that it worked as expected with my 2 stove types- butane canister and an coleman 525 single burner . I t also keeps the stoves working efficiently by reducing some loss of heat. I you have a really large pot that might not work as well. It did not use it with my alcohol trangia, but I would expect it would perform well since that stove has low profile.

I was looking for a more stable windscreen to go with my Genesis Jetboil camp stove. I purchased the REDCAMP 12 plate folding windscreen. It worked perfectly and folded up and put back In it’s own carrying case it fits on top of camp stove to be stored inside jetboil case.I also used it on a windy day to block the wind while starting campfire. Love dual purpose items.

Wind and fire are always a problem. You usually wind up improvising something. This windscreen is portable, compact and flexible, but not very stable. It is thin, light weight, but flimsy. The only mechanism to secure it is 2 "pins", one at either end, you push into the ground. If you do not have ground to anchor to, you will have to improvise. In the attached picture, I am using magnetic clips to hold the windscreen. It did work in this application, reducing temperature swings during wind gusts measurably. Overall, it is functional and usable, but still requires some improvising.

Great shield for blocking the wind.

I wanted one for my home kitchen & the "kitchen" ones are just 3 pieces of hinged metal & will only fit a certain size pan. I was tired of fry grease getting everywhere in a pan so large I can't find a lid to fit it. The panels swing freely on their hinges so they might "wiggle" a bit much for some people, but I wanted that flexibility to conform to different sized burners or whatever pan size I was using and it works well for me, AND it leaves a gap that I can reach in with spoon or spatula without knocking it over. Once done, I rinse it well & put it straight in to the dishwasher. There is a proper "up" side. Use it, or the hinge pin will try to come out. They are easy to put back in, but if I just keep an eye one which is "up", it's no problem. Worth every penny and wish I'd found it years sooner.

Bought this wind screen two years ago and it was solid well made product with thick gauge panels. Purchased it again and this product is now degraded in quality. The panel material is thinner and bends easily. The bag it comes with didn't have any screen printing nor a cord lock as before. This is no better than the $6 no name windscreen I bought here on Amazon to same money and I tried to return because it was so flimsy.

The windscreen does what it’s supposed to do which is block the wind and it’s very lightweight which someone really shouldn’t complain about that. My complaint is after the first use it came apart and there’s these pens that hold it together and then when you try to put them back together. It’s like a Rubiks cube so if you’re a genius and you can put the Rubiks cube together in 30 seconds, it probably would be easy for you. Maybe I’m just moron, but I do not like this product at all

LOL This may be advertised for camping, but I am using it at home to keep our large dog away from our food. She's a gentle hound/lab mix, so her nose is fine-tuned. We've been training, but sometimes her nose leads her astray. When she helped herself to a loaf of bread I had just taken out of the oven, I knew it was time to find a barrier . . . just didn't know what to get. Anyway I happened to see this on Amazon and realized it could be the answer. It's very light, closes up quickly, and blocks our furry girl from taking delicious smelling food from the stove or counter top. I know she could knock it over because it is light, but between the training and the Windscreen (or nose screen, in our case), she's not helping herself to our food. And if we ever decide to go camping, we already have a Windscreen!
