So much stove, so little wasted space. At first glance it might appear that the Optimus Stella+ has been run over by a large truck, but it only locks that way because it's folded for space-efficient packing. The Optimus Stella+ is a transformer (it could be Optimus Prime) that unfolds into a stable base that's able to accommodate enough soup for a small army. Even the burner head is foldable, it's the same technology used on our most compact burner, the Optimus Crux. When the burner is unfolded for cooking, it's ready in a snap. Once attached to a gas canister, all that's left to do is open the valve, fire the built-in pieze igniter and remember where you packed your grandma's recipe for Beef Wellington.
