Gear Review
Awesome, with a few drawbacks
By Denny Trimble
Ranked #23 - Canister Stoves
October 28, 2008
Amazing performance most of the time! Drawbacks: 1) Canister performance below 30F sucks. Sleep with your canister in your sleeping bag, or you won't have coffee in the morning. 2) No simmer - if you want to do more than just boil water insanely quickly, look elsewhere. If it had a calibrated knob, it would say "off, 8, 9, 10, 11".
