YES! and it works! Get you a huge stock pot (go to a thrift store and buy a used 1) also buy a small (used if possible) bbq pit and you can use the grill on top of the pot to heat up food, water etc. The fumes are non toxic. I had 1 in my living room and it heated up my entire house in no time. I had 2 emptied and cleaned out canned goods container and heated up my garage and kept my pipes from bursting. MAKE SURE kids/ people stay away because they emanate alot of heat and get hot fast. Key to it is fill the alcohol to about 1" above the toilet paper. THIS WORKS!
