MSR Pocket Rocket Stove
Simple
By Nick Schmidt
Ranked #133 - Canister Stoves
April 13, 2011
This has been the only stove I have used on backpacking trips for 6 years, through all seasons, mostly at low elevations (below 5000 feet). Mostly I use it with the MSR Stowaway and BlackLight pots - but the efficiency doesn't matter to me so much as the ease of use, low cost, weight and size. The concentrated flame can burn food in the middle of the pot if you get distracted, and its subject to wind and toppling - just be careful and try to find shelter. I've heard you can sleep with the canisters so that it stays warm and is more efficient, but it's never come to that for me. In the end, with this stove my cooking system is one less thing to worry about.
