Thanks Jason for your significant insight. Reactor seems technically better but dont like that only works with its pot. Being more specifically I like convenience and ease and would like to use for short backpacking trips(not winter) and camping with girlfriend. Which system (of all) do u recommend.

For convenience and ease of use go with the MSR Pocket Rocket. It is a completely reliable 3.5 season stove that is ideal for short or long backpacking trips. It integrates very well with the GSI Dualist cook set system for a very compact and easy to use set up. The entire cost of everything should come in at well under $100 if you shop around. Check out the reviews.

Short backpacking trips, ease of use, and girlfriend? buy a remote canister stove, msr wind pro, snow peak bf, brunton vesta, optimus stella, etc. Don't get me wrong, I like my liquid fuel stove and my ultralight canister top stove, but there is a time and place for everything, and if I owned one stove it would be a remote canister with a fuel preheat coil. Funny that its the one kind I dont have. oh, I'd buy the snow peak bf, large burner if it was my money

This pot is probably overkill for what you want. This pot is designed to ONLY boil water which limits your options. If you want a more versatile system check out something else. If you want ease of use, check out canister stoves such as the MSR WindPro or Pocket rocket. If you want something cheaper in the long term, get a liquid fuel stove such as the Wisperlite. If you want to cook gourmet meals in the back country and need to regulate heat get the Dragonfly. Good Luck
