Yes it does. I own this stove and have been impressed by it.. It is very hot and the built in cup/windscreen that surrounds the flame seems to work very well. It's also very well made. My two complaints are that it really uses up the fuel and it can be challenging to prime. Although one of it's major selling points (this stove bypasses the 'yellow' priming flame stage), it can be tricky to get it going. I would recommend practicing and understanding this stove before taking it out in the backcountry. An easier white gas stove to use, and lighter weight, is the MSR Simmerlite. The easiest priming stove on the planet is the MSR DragonFly. Both these stoves have proven their reliability over many years of hard use. The DragonFly is my current favorite liquid fuel stove.
