the thing is quite large for including in a VW camper camp kit, and is redundant so far as the burner tops go.  It requires a dedicated fuel source.  Given its dimensions and heft, it is barely portable.  Now, folks who camp with the equivalent of a garage with them, ok.  I have been at NF camp grounds and seen folks with propane barbecue cookers big enough to do a whole hog.  Those are the folks who are in a giant pickup truck towing a trailer of similar size to the truck, with a couple of four wheelers and two or three multi-room wall tents for a family of four.  they usually have a generator and a string of incandescent light bulbs that would light up a WalMart parking lot.  Those guys might like one of these.
