Great little storm cooker. Nice for a one person hike. Great quality from Trangia as usual.

Love my Mini Trangia, it’s been on many many adventures with me and is battered, blackened, but still fantastic. I did really dislike the tinny little pot handle, which always felt like I’d spill boiling water on myself. I upgraded to the standard Trangia handle which fits perfectly in the pot with the other bits when it’s all packed away. It barely weighs more, so would be a great improvement if Trangia would do away with the rubbishy handle and include the proper one.

I’ve had my Trangia Mini since 2007 and I still love it. The pan has a well used look, the non-stick coating on the frying pan has a couple of small scratches at the closure point but is otherwise still in good order and the brass burner functions like new even though it is bruised and tarnished. It’s the perfect stove for multi-day motorcycle adventures or overnight hiking. I’ve tried slightly lighter options, however I always return to this kit for it’s ability to make a proper meal on the track or trail. My only request to Trangia would be to redesign the post stand somehow to allow full/partial opening of the simmer ring and provide better wind protection. For the size, weight, reliability, versatility and price it’s difficult to beat the Trangia Mini.

I purchased my mini couple of years ago and never really used it.
Last year I started taking it on pilgrimages, instead of my kerosene or gas cylinder stoves. I found that burning alcohol was more available than gas tins or even kerosene sometimes.
Yes, it takes a while to boil my morning coffee/tea but with an egg or bacon in the lid at the same time…..this set is quite a little wonder.
Now I even take it to work with me.

Perfect kit for bicycle users. It doesn’t occupy precious trunk bag’s space and it is lightweight. An aluminum foil used for windshield greatly increases the efficiency. Do not forget to simmer when frying something with little oil or fill the pan with oil to fast fry something. The only downside is that the teflon coating around the notches scratches due to friction however this is not something to worry about. I have cut two leather pieces, one under the burner assembly and the other in the fry pan in order to eliminate the scratches and rattle noised when cycling.

Used the Mini on a long motorcycle trip. I used it for boiling and more complex meals and had no real problems with it other than having to put up a wind block on occasion.
The small size of the kit took up little room in the saddlebags and was smaller than my previous setup. It performed well and was fuel efficient. This kit is good for space limited packing or as a car emergency set.
I like the kit but wish it came in Duossal as well.

I bought one and was not impressed, so I sent it back. After alittle time I figured “why not” and ordered another one. It is/was a great little stove and does exactly as you would expect. made bacon, eggs, sausage, spam & beans, noodles, coffee, French toast, burger, etc…
I ended up giving it to a friend as my 27 was abit better of what I needed.
I would definitely get another one, IF… IF they made it in HA.

This is a great cooking set for a day out hill walking. Fits in a rucks’ side pocket with fuel bottle in the other. Ideal for one but have managed to cook decently for two. Having an additional wind shield is useful when cooking in more exposed areas but setting up with a few loose stones etc works just as well. Had mine a few years and non stick is showing signs of wear and tear but it’s been a great ‘companion’. Have bought an extra frying pan for the time I’ll eventually have to replace the original.

Just bought a new spare Mini Trangia, not that the old one which is in use for year now has broken but just in case and you will always see when you need a new one or want to have one it is unavailable. What to say about the Mini, yes it is mini, except that it is light, simple of of the standard Trangia quality. Clearly is somewaht limited compared with the 27-series but what do you expect. It does what it is supposed to do and is doing that great. The only two minus points I can think of is that is it a little less stable so you have to be careful where to set it up. The other thing is that is somewhat troublesome in windy circumstances. I solved it with a thick homemade windscreen of aluminium but that is really the only thing I can think of. Clearly you might find it what difficult to cook a four star diner but at the end of the day or just during lunch that is not really on your mind. You only long for a hot drink or a simple meal and for that the Mini is perfectly suited.

Just purchased a second one, not that my original haps broken down but just to have one spare or one to share and it can be difficult to buy one once you need it. Quality is Trangia standard, it is light, it is simple (almost – I guess if you really want to it can be) indestructible, easy to use, small and most important it does what it is supposed to do (in my case boiling water and that does it rather quickly). Of course it has its limitations for example compared iwith the 27 series but much easier to carry with you. The only point for improvement could be to have a suitable windscreen, now I use a aluminium type of lightweight screen that does the job but it looks a little awkward but again to save weight it might be a good compromise.

My Mini Trangia has been a faithful companion for over a quarter of a century. It is a superb little stove. Mine pre-dates the introduction of non-stick, so there is nothing to go wrong!
It might be slower to boil than some of the newer gas-powered competition, but meths is a by-product, so it’s got to be more environmentally friendly…
I’ve started using an additional folding windshield for windy conditions.

I have had my Mini Trangia for 20 years now and it is a little blackened, it has some scratches and has lost some of its non-stick surface – but it is still going strong! It fold up small and always works as there are no complicated or delicate parts to break or fail. It has been up mountains, been on holidays abroad and at home and has even cooked numerous pancakes on pancake-day in the office at work. A true classic stove that will last a lifetime. Brilliant.

I purchased this Mini 28T, 2 months ago along with the 27-2UL. It is World class qualities. Nothing can break on it, truly superb engineering and design.
Trangia, were highly efficient, fast delivering to Spain, very informative along the way and very well packaged. With me, they’ve a customer’s for life. Highly recomendable.
