Why We Like The Jetboil MiniMo Stove
One of our favorite backpacking stoves is now available in a smaller size for easier packing and more efficient cooking. The Jetboil MiniMo Stove is an obvious choice for solo treks, but the 1-liter canister holds the exact amount of boiled water needed for most dehydrated meals portioned for two.

Melted.
Was using mine to boil water when the plastics caught on fire and melted.

Works will with minor gripes that don't hinder use
Easy to set up and use. However, with high winds the flame did go out a few time. Temperature control is nice to have. Packs away well enough, with a minor looseness of top when you have a fuel canister with it.

Great jet boil product
I bought this having planned multiple trips this summer from multiple day canoeing trips to backpacking trips. I wanted something that could more than just boil water fast. I chose the minimo because it was the best of both worlds. On my last trip I was able to cook fresh food the first two nights which was awesome. I had success with cooking at low temps. The last few day of the trip I was able to boil water for multiple people’s dehydrated meals crazy fast. It was usually boiling before I was ready for it. Can’t wait to use it again. Super compact for what it is.

Quarantined with Covid and cooked with the Minimo.
I've had the Minimo since winter of 2020 and have used it back country while hunting and hiking. It's a great system and I would recommend it to anyone. I was on an Elk Hunt in Colorado in 2021and came down with Covid while 5-7 miles deep in the Rockies! Ended up having to go to the hospital and then quarantined in a motel for a full week after the infusion. Had a friend drop off some groceries and I was able to cook with the Minimo in the hotel room. Will get the coffee press soon too.

MiniMo newbie
I will be using my MiniMo for the first time next week when I go fishing/camping for several days and looking forward to it. I am finding it difficult to store even the smallest fuel tank along with the burner. I keep a rubber band around it just so nothing is lost.

Awesome product
This worked out very well for me when I was backpacking this past year. I was able to boil my water or slowly warm up some bone broth or coffee and hot chocolate with ease. I can be a little bulky, but for what it does I am ok with it!!

Quick
Quick to bring water to a rolling boil. With the press, it makes coffee a breeze. When shutting it off, it takes just a couple minutes to cool to the touch. One thing I found as a small issue is the rivets holding the handles aren’t insulated and obviously get hot. Just have to watch my fingers placement. I use this every time we go camping and I’ve yet to go through a fuel canister. Would definitely recommend.

Mine is still going strong since 2015
I love my MiniMo. It’s still working great almost 9 years after purchase, and even though I once partially melted it (I got mine before the pot support was included, and now understand exactly why using the pot support really matters). I chose to MiniMo as a beginner backpacker, because it was easy and got me on the trail. Years later, I still love it because I often cook while backpacking, and the MiniMo allows me to simmer and otherwise adjust temperatures as I cook. I even use the MiniMo when I car camp, because it’s just so easy and boils water so quickly in the morning. I recommend this product to customers all the time — those who want to cook, not just boil water, but still appreciate the incredible boil time. The piezo ignitor does eventually fail - not a dealbreaker for me.
