Awesome; I wish I had bought two! By Ocean and Mountain Fan from Capistrano Beach, CA on 01/06/2009 Pros: Compact, Durable, Fast Start, Hot Surface, Light Best Uses: Backcountry Camping, Campgrounds, Day Trips Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The design saves fuel; which more than compensates for the added weight of the great carry case that's included.
Well suited for Boy Scouts By Boy Scouts from Little Rock, AR on 12/13/2008 Pros: Durable, Stable Base Best Uses: Backcountry Camping, Campgrounds Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Great stove for Boy Scouts. Allows group cooking for 2-3 scouts, using the 'one-pot' cooking method. Very wide & stable base prevents tipping - a common problem among Scouts. Fuel efficiency is great - only one canister for a 3 day outing. Our Patrol purchased 3 units to feed all 9 Scouts on a backpack trip. The Scouts gave it high reviews - easy to use, quick boil, easy cleanup.
Too much whiz, not enough bang. By Barking Ed. from Pennsylvania on 11/23/2008 Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I didn't think this unit was compact nor durable enough for my purposes, emphasis on durable. If it were a bit more sturdy, I would have been glad to have it despite it's bulk, I like to do some good cooking on my hikes and don't mind trading a little weight for that. I returned this item.
By bhamclone from Birmingham, AL on 11/10/2008 Pros: Compact, Fast Start, Hot Surface Best Uses: Backcountry Camping Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: It is great for morning coffee, and I've never seen a quicker boil. The center flame is concentrated for other pots, and you will experience sticking if you try to cook food at a simmer. Very stable platform and the integrated pots and windscreen are very good. Easy Start.
great product, but with blemish By Michael from CN on 11/07/2008 Pros: Easy to Use, High efficiency Best Uses: Backcountry Camping Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: award winner and great product. But I received one with blemish, the pot has collision marks!
By Campin' in AZ from Arizona on 10/28/2008 Pros: Durable, Fast Start, Hot Surface Best Uses: Backcountry Camping, Campgrounds, Day Trips, River, Survival, Trips, Winter Camping Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This a really a great product! I was very impressed at how easy it was to use. Stove lit on the first try thanks to the built-in ignition and I had 1.5 liters of boiling water in about 3.5 min. Also can be dialed down to a slow simmer -- great temperature control. I made Mac-n-Cheese to test it out. It cleaned in just a couple minutes with just a sponge and water. It's a little on the large size, but it's worth it to me for all the upside it has!
By sKORpio from TX on 10/19/2008 Pros: Durable, Fast Start, Hot Surface, Light Best Uses: Backcountry Camping, Campgrounds, Day Trips, Trips Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Obiously not a very compact design, however it's pretty light and saves on gas too, therefore saves even more weight
