We bought this unit about 6 weeks ago and have used it on two trips so far. We have used the disposable green canisters and even adapted it to our larger propane tank on the fifth wheel. No matter what we dial the fuel down too we cannot get this unit to heat up to anything less than the maximum unless we leave lid off. Consequently you have to tend everything all the time so you do not burn your meal up. Even with infrared there is some minor flare up. We have the big infrared deep fryer from charbroiled and have enjoyed it for a couple years now,but this is a big disappointment. We will go back to using our larger Coleman starting this weekend.
