Pros of the Papillon
.
Our experience in some countries of Africa and also South America's shows, that the Papillon colar cooker suffices for a family with approx. 15 persons. It can also be used in a small street restaurant. One can cook with that, fry, bake and even grill.

... no dazzling dangers for the cook
  • The construction allows, that the user can stand directly in front of the pot. 
  • Danger of dazzling at the cooking place is impossible because there's no mirror in front of the cooking place.
  • Soiling of the reflectors was highly reduced, since there is no reflector surface under the cooking place.
  • The cook can stand with both feet on the basic rack during the cooking. This guarantees that also at strong stiring of foods the cooker stands safe.
  • If the boiling apparatus is not needed, the two wings can be folded up. This guarantees a compact measurement and protects the mirror surfaces against external influences. 
  • The Papillon has 2 wheels and fits through every entry door.
  • The solar cooker has a sun visor so that the user always stand in the shadow.
  • On the cooking surface up to 4 pots can be used simultaneously. Also a Marmite No. 1 (cylindrical pot in Africa, 20 litre capacity) can be used.
