Title: Furphy 8"
Post by skiproosel on Jan 18^th, 2008 at 12:30pm

Just picked this nice little oven up today & thought I'd post a few photo's. Not bad I thought, at best estimate about 22 years old!
All the Best

Do you want to sell it.

I put a bid of $240 on one on eBay once and got outbid on it. :'(

I think it eventually went for $380 :-/

Furphy told me they bought the Kangaroo Stove Company some time back. With the company they also got their camp oven molds and started to produce a few with Furphy lids.

Funny thing is I have never seen a true Kangaroo camp oven.

If you don't mind me asking what did you pay for the oven?

Hi Astro,
I didn't actually pay for it directly I swapped it for a 12" Camp Chef oven which cost me $89.00. Would you consider that a fair trade?
