This one burns longer, unfolds bigger, is more stable (4 arms instead of 3), and has the ability to simmer. The Crux is very slightly lighter and smaller and comes with a parts kit, cleaning tool, and stuff sack. And the Crux is a lot cheaper. This one's made of aluminum, the Crux is steel. That's actually quite a lot of differences, and all I did was look at the Tech Specs for 5 minutes, which since it's your money, you could have done yourself.
