What reviewers say
REI owners rate it about 4.2 of 5, with roughly three in four recommending it. They like how light and packable it is and how far a canister goes. The common complaints are wind sensitivity, a lid that can come loose, and weaker performance near freezing. One owner said a simple windscreen fixed most of the wind problem.
Good
- Very light for a heat-exchanger pot system
- Packs into a small bundle
- Good fuel efficiency
Not so good
- Open burner struggles in wind
- Lid can pop off
- Slower in freezing weather
Who it's for
Solo backpackers who boil water for freeze-dried meals and coffee and want to save weight. Those who cook in wind or cold should look at an enclosed or regulated system.
