Underrated Workhorse.
Simple, versatile, tried and true design. This stove has everything I need in a gas canister stove; no frills, lightweight, windscreen compatible, stable, and no proprietary components. Love this stove!

Great
Awesome stove! I purchased a bunch of these to be used as backpacking stoves for a university outdoor program. They've been easy to use, convenient, and students enjoy them (a lot more than whisperlites!) Thank you!

Very Stable and Efficient!
I'm very pleased with this stoves performance! I have used it in the liquid feed configuration and I wasn't expecting that there would be some burn off time before the stove shut down after I turned it off. Other than that learning curve, it's been reliable and quick. It's lower profile and stability makes it much better when cooking for a group than a typical sit on top canister stove. Overall, very happy with the purchase!

Will always bring this on trips!
Fantastic stove! I'd been waiting for it to come back into stock so I could buy a second one, and I'm very pleased with it! I guide backpacking trips where we make most of our food rather than using freeze-dried meals, and these stoves are a must have! They're comparable to the infamous whisperlite, but use the iso butane fuel. Great heat control, super efficient even in the cold, and the ability to use a wind blocker is incredibly helpful. You don't want to risk not being able to eat dinner when you're in the backcountry, and these are extremely reliable.

Great Stove
Great stove that has proven efficient. Took it on the west coast trail to make all meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner). The shield improved boil time and reduced gas waste. I have a pocket rocket version which I love and has been my stable for weekend adventures but this one is brill when cooking for two. Recommend!

Sprays fuel
I bought this for our backpacking trip in Denali knowing I’d need a more stable base for cooking and some wind protection than the trusty pocket rocket. I liked the base and inverted feature for fuel saving even though it was fiddly. I love my titanium cookware, so did not wish to invest in a cooking system. Every time I attached the fuel canister to the wind pro I was sprayed with fuel. Not a great smell to be carrying around on clothing and hands with bears. My companion had a reactor stove and was eating and drinking a hot beverage while I was still waiting for water to boil. Not as bad as our alcohol stove on wait time, but felt like forever. I’m selling this stove for a reactor system despite my apprehension for aluminum cookware and additional weight.

Good Stove
I bought this stove to use for boiling water and using a fry pan. It is excellent at boiling water but needs a fourth support for better fry pan stability. I also liked how it can turn a canister upside down for use in cold weather or to use the last drops of fuel. The stand works well but is too bulky. Fold out legs attached to the nozzle would work much better.
