This stove is awesome. I have cooked on many stoves out there and my backpacking buddies all agree that this is the best of the bunch for cooking for a small group. If I'm just going to eat MRE's, then I'll go with my jetboil, but if we're going to cook real food then the Primus comes along. Packs up tight with fuel canister inside. Extremely efficient. I cooked at least 5 meals and boiled water at least 25 times on one fuel canister. Boils water super fast and has great flame control for cooking. I do almost all my backpacking at 9000-12000 feet. Highly recommend.
