I have a twin burner Jackeroo stove that is 22 years old. You can still buy replacement burners and gas jets for them. Goes great

I think it is spelt Jackeroo with an "e".

Most of the stuff with that brand I have seen is mid range - the sort of stuff that would suit people who go away camping maybe a couple of times a year whilst the family is younger.
Personally I prefer the Coleman stuff

I've found there stuff to be fairly good. The tents are thick and heavy but they don't leak. The cookers are good, but the jets can be prone to blockage, the lanterns and stems are excellent.

we purchased one of the jackaroo "briefcase" solar panels. cost 119 dlrs i think. been away about 4 times since and havent fired up the generator since. that said, we only use the batteries for lighting in the caravan at night. have had a couple of their tents too - ok but you get what you pay for
