Is this the same as the Brunton Flex with the exception if the folding arms?

The curved, longer pot supports do make the Flex more stable especially when using larger pans/pots. All other specs are essentially the same.

It is basically just Bruntons version of the crux. I havnt used the Brunton before but apparently the Brunton is supposed to be a little better at simmering. I had the crux (until I lost it) and it was a good little stove. A little unstable which I think the Brunton fixes with the 4 pot supports. Hope that helps.
