Brunton Crux Foldable Butane Canister Stove
Zero Stability

Ranked #259 - Canister Stoves
September 12, 2003
This stove cannot be used with any pot which does not have serrated bottom.
It works O.K. for 1QT pot. But 1 1/2 QT pot is like a skate on an ice rink on this stove. Instability results from too many moving parts. Burner head is sprung open, and pot supportors are fold out open. Too much play on both.If you are trying to use this stove with titanium pot, you can pretty much forget about your meal until you find serrated bottomed titanium pot. I haven't. So you have to use heavier aluminium pot that has serrated bottom. Spilled dinner twice on 7 day trip. Since then I had to hold onto the pot during the whole time meal was being cooked. No response from manufacturer to my email.
