Jetboil

Stash Stove

Stash

I used this for backcountry hunting. This works very well. The only think that bugs me is the lid does not fit tight without fighting it. I will also be using it for the PCT next year.

Super light and compact! Have used it to make coffee and freeze dried meals along with using it as a burner for a small skillet. Won’t go hunting without it!

Perfect for 2 night/3 day Family Backpacking Trip

We spent 2 nights backpacking with my brother-in-law's family - 5 meals plus a hefty amount of coffee. He had his white gas tank and it died during lunch the second day. That meant that this little Stash (with one canister) needed to work for 4 people the first night and morning, then 9 people for 3 meals - and it delivered! The compact and light design made it extremely easy to pack and the quick setup was extremely easy. We used a firebiner to light after a few tries, and a lighter would make it even easier. My BIL was so impressed, he went out and bought one for a week long canoe trip in Algonquin 2 weeks later. We still have gas leftover to use on our next trip, but maybe we will get a full tank, just in case ;)

Lightweight and Durable

Great piece of kit that is easily packable for hiking trips. Would highly recommend

Compact

Great little stove and pot for the backcountry excursions. Boils water quickly even in a wind. Used on multiple week long backcountry trips this year.

Light and Easy

This stove is great! Love how it packs so small and easy to use. At 6500 ft elevation it would boil is less than a minute. Having the canister fit inside is great and makes is take up that much less room in my pack. Can't beat the weight! I used this for both backpacking and for hunting! The one down side is that the lid doesn't snap on a tight as I would have liked and it does come off when pouring water from the pour spout. To keep the lid from falling off I would just put a little pressure on the lid while pouring. Other than that its a great ultralight option! Can't recommend it enough!

Light, fast, efficient

Let me start by saying I have been using Jetboil Products since before they hit the retail floor- I had a shop demo PCS in my store before they shipped their first retail units. Since then, I have owned the PCS, 1.5L pot, a Flash, 2 Genesises, a Luna side Burner, a Sumo, and a Minimo. I have also used or owned everything from a Svea 123 to an XGK to catfood stoves. Been there, done that. If what you want is to boil water for 1 or 2 people quickly and efficiently in a 3 season setting- look no further. I hope they expand this design to include a 1L and 2.5L vessel. But in the meantime, this is my favorite backpacking setup ever for just-add-water meals for 1-2 people.

Sawtooth Mountains

Worked great on 5 day trip in the sawtooth mountains in Idaho. Can’t believe how small and light it is!

Failed after a couple days

Have stove on a 230g cartridge, lightly used for a couple days. Cartridge feels about 3/4 full. Opening valve this morning and no gas flow. Closed and opened a couple times and still nothing. Unscrewed stove from cartridge and see what appears to be a part of the stove stuck in the top of the butane cartridge. Stove worked great when it worked, but clearly there's either QC issues or a fundamental design flaw. I have used the original Jetboil in the past and was very happy with it.

Like my Stash

I got this for Christmas and have used it many times. I love cooking in the 7 inch pan. It creates an even cooking area. The draw back is it goes out easily with just a breeze. Easy to restart.
