Product Description
I emailed Coleman directly to ask what hard carry case model would suit my NorthStar (2000) Dual Fuel unleaded lantern. They replied saying that they have never made a hard case for the Northstar and had no plans too. I was puzzled because I had previously seen a non English speaking youtube video where someone was demonstrating the lantern and they had it stored in a red hard case. From the shape of case in the video clip I deduced that it was the same case that suited the Coleman 295 model lantern i.e Coleman hard carry case model 290-763T. I am in the UK and it seem colemans EU are no longer importing hard cases into Europe for what ever reason and all the stockist here have 'out of stock' on their adverts. So I ordered the case from amazon.com USA as per the product advert for this review. 3 days later I had the item delivered to my door from the States, quite impressive. The case was black in colour not the red I was expecting but black suits me fine. My NorthStar lantern does indeed fit with one minor adjustment needed to make it do so. All that needs doing is shifting up by less than half inch (10mm in fact) the rubber support foot that is fitted around the lanterns fuel tank. This allows the lantern to sit snug into the carry case base. After that every thing is sweet. This is good value for money lantern case for 25 UKP in total that includes shipping from USA and import duty. It is fit for the purpose of safely storing my new lantern and protecting it when it's living in the back of my 4x4.

Protect your Coleman liquid-fuel lantern during storage and transport with this hard-shell carry case. The Case fits Coleman lantern models 220, 290, 295, and other liquid-fuel lanterns. The rugged, durable housing helps keep your lantern safe.
