I purchased one of these a year ago and absolutely use and abuse it. I don't take care of it at all and neglect it almost every time I use it. But, it has never failed me yet. It is easy to use and very very light. I have used both the MSR Pocket Rocket and this stove. I would pick this one every time. You can put large pots on it, but not huge. Basically if you can fit it in your pack, you can probably fit it on this stove.

I bought this for an upcoming ski trip. Thought it would work well. I expected a normal size backpack, but its smaller. I am not complaining cause it will work well for skiing and hiking etc, but not big enough to carry to class. I really like the whistle that is on the chest buckle. The hydro bladder looks to be of high quality too. The only thing i can complain about is the bite valve does not have a cover to keep debris off like some new CamelBaks do.

I think this is the best designed and cut jacket that I have ever worn. I would suggest ordering a size larger if you plan to wear a lot of layers underneath. But, if you plan to just wear it as a regular rain jacket it fits like a glove. I really like the two Napoleon pockets and the way the hood pulls work. Overall, a great jacket that I use for fly fishing, skiing, or just walking to class.
