When it comes to camp cooking, most people want something that lights reliably, heats quickly, and doesn’t take up half the pack. Onlyfire’s GS330 Butane Stove for camping, hiking, and backpacking checks all three boxes — and at a price that keeps things practical.
What is the Onlyfire GS330?
The GS330 is a portable, foldable single-burner butane stove designed for outdoor use. It comes from Onlyfire Outdoor Living, a brand under TOP MFG INC, a company that also manages the Onlyfire Grills, Q Pizza, and Blumoker product lines. The brand’s broader catalog spans gas grills, griddles, charcoal grills, fire pits, and camping stoves, with a stated focus on combining durability with practical outdoor cooking performance.
The GS330 is aimed at people who want a simple, reliable way to boil water, make coffee, or cook quick meals outdoors — whether at a campsite, on a hiking trail, during an RV trip, or even as a backup stove during a power outage at home.
Specs and build quality
On paper, the GS330 delivers a solid performance punch for its size. It puts out 3,900 watts (approximately 13,300 BTU/hr) of heat, enough to boil 1 liter of water in under 10 minutes, according to Onlyfire.
The stove measures 9.8 inches long × 3.5 inches wide × 4.1 inches tall and weighs 3.58 pounds (about 1.62 kg). It’s constructed from stainless steel and alloy steel, with a three-segment brass burner that Onlyfire says enhances both temperature resistance and corrosion protection, helping keep the burner free from oxidation even after extended use.
The legs and pot supports fold inward when not in use, making storage and transport simple. The stove ships with a carry bag, and there’s also a built-in bottle opener — a small but practical touch that’s easy to appreciate on a camping trip.
Ignition is handled by a piezo switch: turn the gas control knob and press the ignition button. No matches or lighter required. Flame intensity is adjusted via a dedicated control knob, allowing precise dialing from a rolling boil down to a gentle simmer.
Fuel and cookware compatibility
The GS330 runs on standard 227g butane canisters, which are widely available at outdoor retailers, sporting goods stores, and even some grocery stores. Butane canisters are generally affordable; users have reported finding them on sale for less than $4 per can, making the ongoing running cost quite manageable compared to some other camp fuel types.
It’s worth noting that butane canisters are NOT included with the stove. Buyers will need to pick those up separately before heading out.
The stove’s foldable pot supports are designed to accommodate a range of cookware, including standard pots, coffee pots, kettles, and frying pans, giving it decent versatility for camp meals beyond just boiling water.
Real-world use
One verified buyer offered a candid, hands-on take on the GS330:
“It’s on the heavier side, 3 lb and not for backpacking but perfect for car camping and canoe camping which I use it for. The best part about it in my opinion is the simmer capabilities; it is highly adjustable down to barely even a flame. Fuel is cheap and sometimes less than $4 a can on sale.”
That review is worth sitting with. At 3.58 lbs, the GS330 isn’t the obvious pick for a multi-day thru-hike where every ounce matters. But for car camping, kayak or canoe trips, RV travel, tailgating, or keeping a stove around for emergency preparedness, the weight is entirely reasonable.
The simmer control is a standout feature — being able to dial the flame down to barely a flicker makes the stove genuinely useful for cooking full meals, not just boiling water for instant coffee.
The broad, stable base and foldable supports also make it suitable for heavier cookware, including cast iron pieces that lighter backpacking stoves may not safely support.
Who is it for?
The GS330 lands in a useful middle ground. It’s not trying to be an ultralight trail stove, and it’s not a multi-burner setup for group cooking. What it is, however, is a well-built, no-frills single-burner that performs consistently, runs on affordable and accessible fuel, and packs away cleanly in its included carry bag.
It suits car campers, weekend overlanders, RV travelers, canoe trippers, tailgaters, and anyone who wants a reliable backup cooking source at home. The brass burner construction and stainless steel body suggest it’s built to hold up over repeated use rather than being a single-season throwaway.
Pricing and availability
The Onlyfire GS330 Butane Stove is priced at $39.30 on Amazon. Gas canisters are sold separately.
