I was told that all titanium stoves would deform after burning. I wonder if this is true?

Since the design and production of titanium stoves are designed and manufactured for hikers, the producer would choose lightweight titanium materials and thin stove walls. If the stove wall is too thick, it will lead to heavy weight and increase the price of the product. In that case, stainless steel stoves will be much more competitive. Therefore, titanium stoves adopt thin titanium plates. When you burning the stove in a hot fire, the wall may get deformation, especially when burning coal. Note, you'd better not burn coal in the wood stove, that would accelerate the deformation of the stove.

One is the product, the other is the skill. Both are indispensable.
