I got this for my boyfriend that enjoys camping and he absolutely loves it. It works great! We have used it every camping trip we've been on. It's convenient and lights easily, even with a flint spark!

How many people could his stove cook for on a 3 day backpacking trip?
Bill Porreca
Member since
This stove would be suitable for a small (2-3) group on a 3-day backpacking trip. Without the ability to use a frying pan you are limited in cooking bigger meals and have to utilize one pot wonders, which are great. If you chose to go the dehydrated food way that would be an option as you would use the stove just to boil water and not heat/cook food, you can take a look here http://www.backcountry.com/entrees.
Phil Maher
Member since
Yeah, you could pull off 2-3 people, but you're going to burn more fuel with separate boiling/cooking for each additional person. It's still only really a solo pot, with the ability to only boil 1/2L of water at a time. That's generally about enough for a 2-person freeze-dried entree from Mountain House, although I've seldom seen anyone not eat most or all of that sized serving by themselves. Also, cooking up "regular food" is still only going to get you the same volume as well at one time...pretty much one person...maybe. With several people, or even a couple, you would probably be better off splitting the components of a separate stove/pot/fuel set-up with at least a 1.5-2L pot if you want to all eat at one time and keep the fuel use to a minimum.
Awesome!

This thing works great! Was in the woods for three days, used it for cooking and making coffee with no problems at all. In the summer heat of Kentucky, it boils water in a lot less time than advertised!

Took this on a rim-to-rim hike in the Grand Canyon. My dad brought an MSR stove. I boiled water 4 times over for 4 people's dehydrated meals in the time it took him to get the 1 to a boil. At the end of the trip, I gave the stove to my dad as a gift for putting the whole trip together. Now, I'm going to replace it with the exact same model.

This stove is great for anyone looking for a small compact stove. Quick to boil the stove boils water in a minutes weather depending. All the components of the stove fit inside of the body of the pot making packing the stove efficient and easy.

Had one cannister of fuel for a 3 day ski camping trip at 10,000 feet and pretty cold. Got the job done! Only think i wish i would have done was got the next model up with the spark ignite, so i wouldnt be out of luck if i lost my matches/lighter.
Not to thrilled with it
Seth Kotelnicki
Member since
First off the positives about it: I love the compact design and how easy the system is to use. Also, the pots and pans that jetboil makes work great even with other stoves and I really recommend those. When in the right climate this stove boils water at incredible rate.
Why I ended up not liking this is because it only works well in warmer climates and lower altitudes. It boils amazing fast when I'm doing some local camping trips but when you're in colder climates or higher altitudes, you're just going to burn a lot of fuel. Also, I have had a lot of trouble with the ignition system. I always have another way to light it, but it's a little disappointing to have it but not have it work.
Maybe I was just misinformed about it's capabilities when I purchased it from a local store, but for alpine use I would look at something else. However, if all you are using it for is summer time low altitude use, go for it, this thing is sweet. I'm just the type of person who wants to buy one quality item that can be used in various situations. I'd rather not have several different stoves like I have now.

This is the original...Mine is probably 10 years old or so?? Still using the original ignitor and has been on more trips than I can even remember?? The new jetboil stoves look silly in my opinion. I have no idea why someone would pay more for the same thing?? even the TI version is not light enough to justify the cost. This is the only jetboil I use. If you really want light weight, nothing is lighter than the pop can hobo alcohol stoves. Takes up about the same amount of space for everything in my pack but weighs less than half of my jetboil set up..
Best new toy of the season!

I went backpacking with a large group and the Jetboil system was by far the most popular. It boils quickly, easy to handle, store & pack and 1 can lasted all week, cooking for two.
Anyone own both this and the PCS? If so...
Eddie
Member since
Anyone own both this and the PCS? If so is the stove itself physically shorter from top to bottom is you put them on a desk? I ask because with the PCS system once you put the canister and stove inside (not threaded to the canister and with the stabilizer legs inside the stove and the pot support upside down over the canister) you're only left with about 1\4" of space (which is taken up by the igniter). I can't see how all that will fit in here since it's over half an inch shorter, unless of course the stove itself is shorter.
Kirk Haskell
Member since
Yes the stove is shorter it is a .08 liter . You can fit all the goodies in here the instructions inside the stove will show you how to properly stack. The Zip does not have an ignitor you need to light with a lighter .
Eddie
Member since
So you own both? Is the stove the same or is it in fact physically shorter from top to bottom?
If not, do the instruction say that the stove must be threaded to the cartridge for everything to be able to nest inside?

what is the difference between this stove and the jetboil flash cooking system?
Eli Hauschild
Member since
The Zip is smaller and more compact with a 0.8L cup, while the the Flash is 1.0L.
Kirk Haskell
Member since
to add to Eli's comments ..The Zip is a stripped down basic version of the Flash.. hence the cost. It does not have a Auto ignitor, heat indicator on cozy and is a smaller .08 liter cup
Jeremiah Rozario
Member since
Kirk and Eli are both right. In addition, the Flash weighs 14 oz and the Zip weighs 12 oz according to official specs but the Zip was 11.625 oz on my scale. The lid on Zip has a strainer feature (19 small holes in a cluster) for draining things like pasta. The lid on the Flash does not but it attaches to the pot more firmly. The Zip comes in black only (lid, cozy, bottom cover and burner but the flash has three colour options if you include the companion cup. Also the lid and bottom cover on the Flash are translucent matching the respective colour scheme. The Flash has the the updated wire lancet fuel control but the Zip still has the old style knob. The pot on the Zip has graduation marking in metric and standard (200, 300, 400 & 500 ml / 8, 12 & 16 oz) but the Flash has only one marking indicating "MAX SAFE FILL / 2 CUPS". The cozy on Zip has a small illustration showing the proper packing method.
Note: Neither of these have the "thermal-regulate" feature that Sol has.
I know this info is likely a little late to be any help to b-b4632460 but another shopper may find it useful.

This is a great compact piece of camping equipment that is perfect for boiling water fast. It always saves me, by getting the water ready fast for the must have coffee. It is also great for boiling water fast for dishes.
Hot water, fast!
Kirk
Member since
Convenient, compact, boils water fast. Newer models are a little different now. I've had my basic model for a little over 4 years now. Only problem I ever had was a broken ignitor, which was easy enough to replace.
