The Stove (technically a kitchen stove) is an immovable fire barrel. The wood stove functions identically to other contained fires and player-made Campfire, and, like all contained fires, isn't blown out by high winds.
Stoves are considered the most valuable firebox, as they have six Cooking slots, allowing the player to cook more food and drinks for the same amount of fuel than any other firebox. Usually one or more Cooking Pots or Recycled Cans are found on the stove.
The Stove can be re-lit indefinitely, though it requires fresh starter, tinder, and fuel each time.
