Gas One GS-3700MT Butane Camp Stove review

Short take: the GS-3700MT is a one-burner portable butane stove whose exact US page lists a carrying case, an 8 oz butane canister and a 10,000 BTU output claim. Those basics make it a plausible table-top stove for a simple outdoor meal. The unresolved parts are consequential: the page says 3.3 lb while its variant data says 2,540 g, no maximum pan size is given, and its integrated windguard does not establish permission for a separate shield.

Keep the MT suffix attached

Gas One's product title identifies the GS-3700MT, and the linked image visibly marks the body with that code. This is not the separate GS-3700 reviewed elsewhere in the library. The two model names share digits but differ in their retail identity, page record and evidence; a matching headline or similar black body is not enough to transfer the other model's specifications. The exact GS-3700MT page lists 10,000 BTU, one burner and a single 8 oz butane route. Fuel is not included, and no propane or threaded EN 417 mode is established.

The manufacturer says the flame can be adjusted from a boil to a low simmer and describes piezo ignition. Those are capability claims, not a timed boil, a tested low-flame result or proof that the stove handles every pot. A one-burner layout suits one cooking position at a time. The page does not specify a maximum pan diameter, cookware load or minimum vessel size, so a wide skillet or heavy pot requires model-specific confirmation.

The included case is a useful package detail

Unlike some stove pages that leave the case question open, the exact GS-3700MT page says a portable carrying case comes with it. It also lists a metal body with an enamel steel drip pan, non-slip rubber feet, a push-and-turn knob and ventilation openings. Those details support a straightforward portable-tabletop use case, but they do not tell how the case is sized, whether fuel can be stored in it, or what else is packaged. The photo shows the stove itself and not a complete box layout.

Gas One gives 12.8 × 10.9 × 3.6 inches as product dimensions. These are not required operating clearances, a pot-size ceiling or confirmation that the case matches those dimensions. Check the actual case and supplied parts at delivery. Fuel must be purchased separately according to the exact instructions.

The two weight records materially disagree

The page's product details state 3.3 lb. Its variant metadata instead shows 2,540 g, approximately 5.60 lb. That is not a rounding difference. Neither field labels itself as minimum bare-stove mass, and the page does not explain whether one number includes the case or other packaging. Until Gas One or the exact seller clarifies the basis, do not use either number as a verified carry limit. A strict weight-sensitive buyer should pause rather than choosing the lower figure.

The same caution applies to the BTU claim. A higher advertised output than a smaller stove can be relevant to meal planning, but it is not a comparative test and does not reveal boil time, fuel consumption or wind performance. The exact page calls this a 10,000 BTU model; how that translates into a real meal depends on fuel, pot, conditions and operating instructions.

Built-in windguard is not an added-windscreen approval

The page describes a circular ring around the burner as a windguard. This is an integrated feature of the exact stove. The inspected page does not link a manual approving a separate windscreen, and the ring should not be treated as permission to wrap the canister compartment or restrict ventilation. Use the supplied instructions and keep any required clearances. The page's outdoor-only notice does not substitute for specific setup and ventilation guidance.

Gas One also lists cartridge ejection and automatic shutoff features for irregular pressure or flow. They remain the manufacturer's feature descriptions, not independent safety testing. The exact page did not provide a minimum temperature or other model-specific operating limits in the material reviewed here. Check the delivered instructions before using the stove in cold conditions or with any accessory.

Who is it suited to?

Consider the GS-3700MT if you want one portable outdoor butane burner, can supply the correct 8 oz cartridge and value the page-listed carry case. Do not select it on a promise of low carry mass until the conflicting figures are resolved. It is also not an answer for a need that requires MSR's exact 80/20 threaded blend, JetPower, a measured boil time, a published pan limit or an approved separate windscreen. Unknown compatibility is not a match.

This is a source-based assessment from the exact Gas One GS-3700MT page and its page-linked image, not hands-on use. No price, stock or customer-review claim is made. Compare the similarly named GS-3700 only as a separate model identity; its facts should not be borrowed to fill gaps here.
