Boil Lite - not Simmer lite

By Ranked #348 - Stoves May 2, 2005

Don't be fooled by the name - it doesn't simmer. I've been really disappointed as it seems to have only 2 settings: scorch and off. My old whisperlite simmers better than this stove. It's very light and heats fast but if you're doing more than boiling water beware. BTW - MSR's own website recommends the dragonfly (not this stove) for simmering!
