    I'v been looking on line at a lot of Coleman 213 and 225 double burner stoves. Can anybody tell what the primary differences between them is?

    225?
    There's a 425, somewhat compact 2 burner, it'll take about 1 1/2 full size pots.
    The 213 is the big brother, it will take two full size pots/skillets. lotsa room!
    I own a couple of 425's and 2-3 213's.
    IMHO, the 213G is the best of the lot, as long as you have room for it!
    Now, if you want the best car camping stove, find a 426 !
    Big Beautiful 3 burner!!!

    I agree. Like Steve said the 425 is somewhat compact and the 413 is a bit larger and accepts larger pots and pans. Be careful though as they tend to breed like rabbits :content: . I've been real lucky and found many at garage sales, so if you are in need of one, just give me a shout using private mail :lol: .

    I agree with the others. If you will be using very large pots or the Coleman Camp oven, the 413 is what you want. If space is an issue, the 425 is a a bit smaller and will work just as well for most of your other needs.

    Ok got it. 413 is bigger. I'v been using 425s for decades. A 425E until it got squished buy the camper and then a 425F. Its was actualy my brothers stove that got compacted, and he has allways missed the 425E. I have to agree I think the E was a nicer stove. Good thing it was my dad and not me that drove the camper over his stove.
