Fantastic Value

Ranked #159 - Canister Stoves
August 4, 2010
For the price, this stove cannot be beat. Period.A buddy purchased a competitor's stove for nearly double the price and my Brunton Talon performed as well if not better in our head to head test.Water boils in under 3 minutes at lower elevations and around 5 minutes at 10,000 ft. The flame adjusts well and is easy to light. I actually prefer the fact that it doesn't come with an igniter.The only problem with the Brunton is that its pretty noisy when lit. Good thing the water boils fast!

Which stove does your buddy have - for curiosity's sake - just so we all know?
