MSR WindPro Stove
MSR WindPro or alcohol

Ranked #710 - Canister Stoves
April 2, 2008
After several months of going very light, the fiddle factor of using alcohol just wasn't working for me. One night after being stuck in the rain and setting up a shelter I wanted something warm. Thinking about using alcohol in these conditions meant going to bed without. I don't do the big miles day after day, so can carry some more weight. Totally pleased with isobutane and this stove so far. Can pack an 8 oz canister, windscreen, stove and lighter all into a snowpeak 1400ml pot. Instant heat, complete flame control. If conditions deteriorate you can count on it to do the job and do it quickly if needed.

@ash2518947 Snowpeak does sell pots, as does MSR. GSI also makes some nice items. What you're looking to cook/for how many people will help determine the type of pot you get. If you're going gourmet or for more than one person, the GSI pinnacle backpacking series or something like the MSR Alpinist system would work well. Both of those are large enough to fit the stove inside, especially if you remove the cups. Some smaller options, like the GSI Soloist or the Snowpeak 700 ml mug are better for one person/easy meals, but may have difficulty holding the stove.

is snowpeak a brand of pots? im thinking about the windpro and wondering if there is a pan that has higher edges with a lid so it will be a container for the windpro as well...
