MSR WhisperLite International Multi-Fuel Stove

Item #CAS0743 | 12 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Workhorse

By Ranked #445 - Liquid Fuel Stoves August 25, 2008

This is a solid stove that has cooked and melted snow tirelessly for me in sub zero temps in Alaska. The weight listed is correct. It is reliable and any problems can usually be fixed in the field. Some people think it doesn't simmer well: That is because they pump it up too much. Climbers have used these stoves for years in adverse conditions with success. If it is a gasoline or multi fuel stove you want, this is a time tested, fast cooking good one. Weight is the trade off, other stoves weigh less nowadays.
