MSR DragonFly Stove

5 Star Rating

incredibly great stove

By Ranked #474 - Liquid Fuel Stoves June 6, 2007

on my last backpacking trip, i was able to borrow my friend's dragonfly, and while i probably will not be able to afford one, i was incredibly impressed by its SOLID performance. even despite my stupidity, i was able to get it started and cruising every time without a problem, even in strong winds and dampness. it boiled water quickly, and the simmer function works very well. my only qualm is the stove's size - if you're going to be just boiling water or doing other super simple cooking, you'd be better off with a smaller, lighter, and cheaper MSR stove. great though if you're a backcountry chef and like doing fancy things with your cuisine. either way - highly recommended.
