Is this stove big enough for a sterno can?

Nope. Made for the fuel tabs. But sometimes you can pick up military surplus at a reasonable cost. Check out their fold up stove too. I snagged one of each. If you want sterno ; they make their own fold up stove that's well made. (Walmart)

The flame from a sterno can will be too close to the bottom of the pot to work properly. The fire compartment is just over three inches in circumference and about two inches high. Use the fuel tablets.

I believe so, the entire size is that of a large cup for coffee etc. The opening a pears to be big enough...

No the is just enough room for the stove. You can fit a hose to run it from a 20 lb tank

Can be used inside. This is the same sterno used to keep food hot in a catering hall.

Hi. Yes, I have the same stove as yours, and it fits fine. It is a little tight to start off with, but afterwards it will loosen up. Just be patient, and make sure that stove is square sliding it in. I love it. you will too. I found that when camping leave it in the sun for awhile then its a breeze to slide in

Unless its a quite large stove it wont fit. It was to big for mine and its a large gas range

I think if you can measure the old one check it out before ordering .I had to customize it to fit my Avalon stove but the power and size were the same.

I don't think wood would be effective to produce a hot enough flame for cooking. these little stoves are designed to use cans of Sterno heat or fuel cubes.

Yes..the inside diameter is 12 inches. I would strongly advise against buying this. The first one didn't work out of the box. It was replaced..which was nice.....but what wasn't nice...the heating element burned out in a year. The cooking times are also not true..in some cases...stove top cooking was quicker!

I had the larger canner for years, and although it will SIT on my electric stove, the weight of the water and jars bent thin bottom of the canner. The smaller canner has much less overhang and even if/when it does bend, it will not scorch the stove surface as the other was was doing. This canner overhangs my electric burner by about 1/4"-1/2". That said, I mostly can pints anyway, so the smaller capacity is not an issue and I'm much happier heating less water and less scorching.

based on my experience I highly doubt you can light these with a portable sterno can. I had to leave the cubes on direct flames from BBQ for a few minutes before they were ready.

YES! I was unsure based on reviews but I purchased Coleman Triton Series InstaStart 2-Burner Stove and this bag and it fits great. The bag is a thick heavy pleather feel material. I thought it was going to be ripstop nylon. Great purchase.

I would have to say yes, just a little bit hotter. I use mine a lot for traveling and boiling water for coffee or for MRE meals. this mommy never wants to be stuck without a back up. sterno seemed to take longer. just my opinion though.

I just checked out prepper sites and the answer seems to be indefinitely as long as the seal isn't broken. Once you open up the can and even if you reseal it, the sterno evaporates or goes hard so it can't be used.

Yes. Any size Fuel canister will fit inside. I use the smaller ones and I have plenty of room left over.

It would be too big for the average burner/stove. I use mine on an outdoor propane burner. Takes a while to heat. Very large pot

It would be too heavy and the unit wouldn't heat up enough.. I wouldn't use it for a canner that large.. Maybe a small canner would be a better match for the cadco.

These are the smaller cans of sterno, I'd say they are a little over 2" tall. Tried to use this with an indoor s'more container and it was too tall.
