MSR DragonFly Stove
...aaaat laaaaaaast....

I own three MSR stoves (blush). My high peaks, desperate situations, really far away from mum, burn whatever I can get, expedition XGK (although I'm not sure they called it that when I bought it 7 years ago). For more comfortable jaunts in the wilderness, lasting up to two weeks, I have a dependable Whisperlite. Nothing wrong with either once you learn to control the pressure so you don't incinerate all your meals!! Now, at the turn of a screw, I can choose to simmer or hurry up that snow/ice. FANTASTIC!! It's been a few weeks and only one trip since it arrived but I have found it a good example of the quality and reliability I expect from MSR. I will be trusting this stove to keep me in good stead in the Andes and Patagonia. Defintiely worth the pennies. On the downside, you may never see the wildlife; the Dragonfly is no quieter than the XGK.
