Best Head Lamp on the Market By Joel from Chicago on 10/13/2009 Pros: Bright, Durable, Light weight, Long battery life, Stable Cons: Did not own one years ago Best Uses: Backpacking, Car Camping, Day trip, Hiking Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I have been searching for a headlamp with the features of the Primus for a long time. Red LED's, a high power beam and various levels of light intensity, battery life, size and weight make this headlamp my goto headlamp. I have been through at least a half dozen headlamps until I found this keeper. Even bought a spare.

Excellent pot pays for itself! By JMT Master from Evolution Valley, CA on 10/10/2009 Pros: Durable, Fast Start, Saves fuel 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: Saves fuel. My boiling times are 30-60 seconds less than with my old stainless steel pot. As mentioned, this is an aluminium pot with a non-stick coating inside. There is a metal ring welded to the bottom so that the pot can rest on a regular stove. My stove's supports are relatively small in diameter, so I have to align the supports so that they fit in between the fins (takes an extra second or two). I wish it came with an insulated bag like with the etapower stove set. Much more economical than the j-boil system.
Great once you get one that works By CaeCamps from Albany, NY on 10/06/2009 Pros: Easy To Clean, Easy to Light Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: First one we received had a messed up connection hose. The second one worked great, looked great, and I hope to get many years of enjoyment from it.
Good but not perfect stove By DonN from Long Beach, MS on 10/05/2009 Pros: Easy to Light, Powerful, Stable Best Uses: Backpacking, Car Camping Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The major issue with this stove is that it must be completely disassembled to either clean or change the jet. The provided tool's screwdeiver is too small to do this job properly. The Primus ETA Power pot must be positioned exactly on this stove to prevent tipping. There is no priming cup, so excess priming fuel drips on the ground, table, etc. With the #40 jet (#32, #40 & #45 provided) it does a good job with both LP and white gas.
Outstanding product and a great price By Don from Ely, NV on 09/27/2009 Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Outstanding for backpacking
By rather be in the woods... from chicago, il on 09/26/2009 Pros: Easy to clean, Fast Start, Light Best Uses: Backcountry Camping, Campgrounds, Lightweight Backpacking, River, Winter Camping Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: this pot amazes me. seriously speeds up the stove and boiling water. I must have annoyed my husband somewhat by constantly pointing out how fast the water was boiling. Super purchase. seriously will extend the life of your fuel canister. My only gripe is the handle clips right onto the interior lip of pot, so after time the nonstick surface will possibly get scratched up - not so good for nonstick. But I would buy this pot again and it's going to be my go to pot for every backcountry trip.

Good product, easy to use in the dark. By a tree expert from Bisbee, AZ on 09/23/2009 Pros: Adjustable Beam, Bright, Spare Bulb, Stable Best Uses: Backpacking, Car Camping, Hiking Describe Yourself: Outdoor Professional Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Works very well for walking your dog in the dark. LED works good for walking, the beam helps illuminate things at a distance of 10 to 20 meters. Works suprisingly well!
Pots Work Well With Easy Modification By Bill from Fort Collins, CO on 09/23/2009 Best Uses: Backcountry Camping Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This pot and its 1.7L brother worked well for us on a seven day canoe trip in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and on a five day backpack in Glacier NP. To make the pots work on our MSR stoves (Simmerlite and WindPro)we used a Dremel tool to cut away the flat ring around the heat exchanger at the points where the stove's pot support contacted it. This made the pot make firm contact with the stove's pot support and put the burner up inside the heat exchanger. The two pots nest well. Good value and good performance.
