I think you have the cylinder stove like I have trophy!! You can get them with upto a 5gallong hot water tank.. I have the Yukon package and it's pretty big, definetly go with the bigger pipe if you can..
my grandpa always said "if it aint broke dont fix it"

Yeah it's cylinder, as far as the water tank goes, it's nice if you want hot water quickly in the morning.  But if your hunting or camping in an area where water is scarce, we don't use it.  The stove going all the time will eat up your water supply and you don't want to leave the water tank on empty with the stove hot.
“In common with”..... not so much!!

I bought a Davis anout three years ago. I use it a lot, and the more I use it, the more I love it. The quality is top shelf and the price is reonable.  It's a great value for the money.

That's a sweet set up as well. So you went with the poles instead of the internal Frame? Happy with that choice? Nice camp blanket too lol

Another advocate for Bravo. Ask users or sellers what breaks, tears, or needs repairs. The Bravo doesn't use grommets; the guy outs tie to D-rings sewn into nylon webbing. The canvas is about the best you can buy. You can customize the configuration, too.

:yeah:
I went with the high wind package, stronger webbing at those D rings.  I use ratchet motorcycle straps to hold mine down, solid.  Love my Bravo.  :tup:
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

I have had a Davis 14x16 foot tent for 12 years and have had no issues!  It has been to hell and back many times.  Get the fire and mildew resistance and an internal frame.  If you store it properly it could easily last a lifetime.
