The Original THERMETTE NZ Made only $195.00 

We sell copper thermette NZ made only.  An original NZ made Thermette can boil up to 12 cups of water in 5 minutes with just a few dry twigs and a match. The best Christmas holiday. 

The best camping kettle on earth made with Kiwi ingenuity and technology. 

History of the original Thermette NZ Made:

John Ashley Hart invented the Thermette in 1929.  Hart later patented his design in 1931.

John Hart was a prolific inventor.  He was born in London in 1887, and moved to New Zealand as a teenager in 1902.  The Hart family settled in Auckland and twenty-seven years later, he would drive around the city with billboards advertising his invention strapped to the roof of his car.

The Thermette is “indispensable to the farmer, camper, picknicker and motorist” proclaimed one advertisement. “A wonderful Christmas present for Dad!” sang another.

When the Second World War broke out, the Thermette provided a quick, easy and user friendly ways to boil water and cook outdoors.  During this era Thermette’s became established as vital equipment for NZ Army Soldiers who nicknamed it the ‘Benghazi Boiler’ as it was particularly popular in the desert settings.

Today, in peace time the Thermette continues to be used by the New Zealand Defence Forces in training and exercise programmes in all types of terrain, especially in off-the-grid situations.

In 2014 Wilson & Co launched online sales of Thermettes.  Ten years later we’re thrilled to have sold hundreds ofThermette’s to happy customers all over New Zealand and the entire world.

How a Thermette works:

The Thermette, NZ made,  is an unique Kiwi design with its cone shaped cylinder to hold water that heats up quick-smart to boiling point rapidly.  From a small fire at its base, heat is distributed super fast to all the surfaces that  surrounds the water. Then the heat generated funnels out the top of the cylinder chimney. Add the stainless cooking ring and you have a mini stove top to make a breakfast or any meal fit for a king.

Light, portable and easy to use, the Thermette can be fuelled and fired up easily with dry twigs and sticks.

 Nostalgic Kiwi Lifestyle:

New Zealand is blessed with an abundance of wide open spaces in which to enjoy our unique Kiwi lifestyle.
