A relative of mine has this on ebay.  It's the same alcohol stove that Simply Lesa used on her video with Bob where she talked about living on $250 a month in her car.  It's a hard to find stove.  Here is the link to the stove:  https://www.ebay.com/itm/332712917042?  The cool thing is it's never been used.  Bob was supposed to make a video just on the stove, but I never saw it in his list.  At any rate, the stove itself as shown in Bob's video with her https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNeynaFVje0

My DIY alcohol stove will cook anything this will, and was pretty much free:

Ha!  Not the same animal, but I think my brothers made those when in the boyscouts and made a big mess with them.  Ruined the finish on the coffee table.   My mother was furious.  LOL

I only mentioned it because this model is hard to find.  It has a cool non-spill vessel for holding the denatured alcohol.  You can't spill it.  It's also non-pressurized unlike propane, and it's also double duty and can be used for a heater or for cooking and it'll hold a nice large pot as well.  Kinda nifty.  But that specific one is difficult to find these days.

Well, I can cook anything that one could make on a stovetop in an apartment.

Ahh - thank you for this reminder to get a new one of these.  I had a denatured alcohol soda can stove that I had purchased for $3 back in 2003 for a backpacking trip.  I used it with the Bakepacker system (website is still up, but they are not making the product currently.  It's a heat-exchanger waffle-looking grid that you set breads and quick bread dough inside of an oven bag and set it on top of the thing inside your pot.  Worked WONDERFULLY.  Hot gingerbread or blueberry muffin, 2 servings (aka - ME) every night on that 3 week trip.  It was awesome. 

Here is the keyword search I cut and pasted from what folks mentioned above
( It appears that a lot of similar designs exist, under different brand names. ):


Portable Alcohol Stove Aluminium Alloy Brass Mini Burner for Outdoor Camping, Hiking, Backpacking,Picnic

 Hotsprings.  Just give me hot springs.  Cool

Nice!
I still have and use that stove! They are hard to find. I don't like the new version made by Origo called the HeatPal, Though it's easier to place a pot on, the slider heat adjustment sucks. (I MHO)
I also now have an Origo 3000 - 2 burner cooktop which I love.
Being allergic to propane helped me get creative.
And yes I have made many alcohol stoves and love most of them... I even like Esbits when I used to hike.
Have a great day guys

Keep It Simple!
Simply,
Lesa
