Does the stove come with a windscreen, or should I plan to fashion one myself? Thx.

No windscreen included so you will need to fashion one yourself or find a place out of the wind. I have not needed one to date but I guess you might as well be prepared.

Nope, no wind screen. But it still worked really well. Wouldn't say you would need one unless you are in some really high winds.

It does not come with a windscreen so if you anticipate being in windy conditions you might want to craft something.

No windscreen provided, but it's never been an issue for me. The flame is very powerful, it would have to be a very strong wind to put it out.

The product has an integrated "Tri-sectional Windclip wind shield protects flame and boosts efficiency." which is on the head. Maybe the head shield helps.

No windscreen. Does well in light breeze but should get screen for high wind.

You will want the screen to cover at least the bottom half of your pot. You can wrap this wind screen fairly close to your stove, but in the real world I've found its better to be larger than smaller. I use this with my Trangia burner using the Liberty Westwind stove and am pleased with the setup. I hope this helps.

I laid the glass/rocks over a propane fire pit tray/bowl,you don't need no screen, or anything else,you just need enough glass to cover the gas burner,I bought two different color glass I mixed them together and it looks very nice during the day or at night when lit.

As a windscreen for the stove itself, yes. It works very well for the alcohol stoves I use. I have not tried it with the tabs but I don't see why it would work any different for them.

it comes with a plastic weatherstrip, similar to the one one the door handle side, make sure you don't throw it away

Is some sort of sheet steel and it seems to be durable although I agree with some of the YouTube videos that I've seen you will need to purchase and apply high heat paint to it like in refitting a grill but it will and can serve for number of years. I have used one on several occasions now I would not apply the high heat paint until after the initial paint from the factory wears or burns off. Then clean and sand it then apply paint. Upkeep on this is a part of outdoor kit is necessary to prolong use in life of the stove. I have enjoyed this very much since my purchase.

Yes, it comes with the stove and case. The case is very cheap so be gentle with it.

I've never tried to take the lid off, but it has never accidentally come off. Wind is definitely an issue. You need to either set up a wind screen by the stove, or set up the stove in an area sheltered from the wind. I reccomend buying one that has the side screens built in.

I've used it in some gusty wind, both at home and in the field and the stove worked well. However, because the wind blows the flame around it took a bit longer to cook. Setting up a wind break would help.

It's always good practice to keep one on you just in case. When it comes to my Esbit I just cut a nice windscreen out of an old disposable pizza pan. The foil is thick and foldable. I don't use it very often since the esbit usually protects the fuel itself. This stove is Brilliant

I do not use their wind screen. I put my Coleman stove on the middle shelf and it has the wind screens built right into the stove.

There is regular screen mesh on the inside. The louvers are very close together. When you place it in your window, put it with the louver side on the outside and the louvers facing down. The screen side should be on the inside. If you place them in your windows this way you won't get any rain coming in. I put them in my windows as soon as the weather starts getting nice and take them out in very late fall. They keep my attic nice and ventilated. Make sure you buy thermal king. They are very well made. Hope this helped.

I wouldn't call it a windscreen :) I will say, since I literally brewed with it today in Baltimore, that the wind had no effect on it. But I will also say I had aluminum foil wrapped around the burner. The tight flames create by this burner makes wind a non issue if you ask me and if it's what you are worried about.

I never used rain x for cleaning a cooktop. I don't believe windshields are subject to the burnt in items that can occur while cooking on a hot stove,

Hi! Mine has a louvre and a wire mesh, but it doesn't need a louver. I should think a mesh would be fine, so long as rain doesn't come in! I really notice a difference with the fan installed, the back of the house used to get brutally hot in the summer. Now it just gets warm. Hope this helps!

It does come wit ha windscreen that is fine for indoors and maybe 4/5 knot winds, but not for high winds. For that I am looking at a RedHead Windscreen

Amazon sells windscreen/pot stands that work with these. They are around $15.
