Bottom line
Choosing a coffee maker depends on how essential your camping trip is; that is, do you travel light or heavy. If you cannot do without your daily brew, then you cannot go wrong with the Coleman grill-top coffeemaker. Use your grill top to brew up to ten cups of coffee that you can enjoy over a few free hours. If you're not in the mood for coffee, then heat whatever it is you want and continue the enjoyment.
Coleman is a brand that's synonymous with camping, so this coffeemaker offers that same expected level of quality. It's compatible with most two and three burner stovetops but is just as capable of brewing coffee in your home. Coffee is one guilty pleasure to be planned and enjoyed whatever you're doing.
