High Expectations, Greater Disapointments

MSR WhisperLite Stove

MSR WhisperLite Stove

Rating for this product: 2 March 1, 2006

I bought several for guide usage after using at NOLS. I soon found out that these stoves don't match the hype given them. They don't simmer well (you have to rotate pot and stir constantly), and burn easily. The plastic pumps work well in warm/moderate temps, but break/fail easily in cold temps or in the hands of a novice. Now have Primus MFS stoves and Optimus Novas have no problems.
