I used one of these for a 4 night trip in the Smokey Mountains in February and it worked wonderfully. I liked it a lot especially compared to the MSR wisperlite we always used to use. Its super light weight, compact, and was perfect for two people. It is much easier to set up and start than a whisper lite. It got below freezing temp, depending on where we were and always at night, but this gave it no problems and heated water very quickly. The only cons I saw were that the plastic lid warped, probably due to the heat, and thus no longer fit the top of the pan correctly and that it would probably not work for big groups. Three people, maybe four, would be the max for one of these, and plan on doing several rounds of cooking. One fuel cannister plus a back up would be more than enough for five day trip.
