MSR WhisperLite Stove
Rock solid stove
By "mugs"
Ranked #613 - Liquid Fuel Stoves
December 15, 2005
I have had the Whisperlite for 13 years now and all I have ever done to it is replace the o-rings at around year six. It has countless miles yes it still rocks. I even used it in the desert when I was in the Army. I made many a soldier espresso on it with my mini espresso maker and/or heated up meals with it. Simple design and easy set up. Pot stability is fair, and you can "simmer" with it if you don't put as much pressure in the bottle. Like 1-3 pumps for a 22oz MSR bottle. My 11 year old son has since inherited my stove as I have upgraded to a Dragonfly. But he has had no problems setting it up and using it. The way I see it if a stove can withstand 13 years if hard use on a regular basis and still fire off and cook like it just came out of the box than it has to be good.
