MSR DragonFly Stove

Item #CAS0373 | 54 in Stock
4 Star Rating

This is a turbo-jet

By Ranked #305 - Liquid Fuel Stoves April 26, 2010

Length of ownership: 3 years
Reliability: 100%
Meet the requirements: 100%
trips per year: 5 times at 3 times per day at 3 days per trip.
I always have tea, water for rice or noodles, eggs, bacon, stir fry...
Heat control is excellent with a main valve plus a fine adjustment valve.
Just pump, pre-heat, go.
It works in rain, high winds (I think it comes with a aluminum wind shield)

Now... what they don't tell you as if the name DRAGON did not make any sense to you.

It is LOUD. After cooking, I need about 10 minutes for the ringing to go away. I guess you can plug your ears...

I am going to shop for another stove for medium weight packing and heavy duty cooking.

If anyone can recommend my next purchase: High performance; quiet, let me know.
