Fairly easy to light. Great for boiling water. Harder to simmer with, but that may be because I tend to overpump the fuel canister. Nicknamed..."The Afterburner". If all you are going to do is boil water, this is all the stove you will need. I consider it lightweight. I put the stove in one zip lock bag, the pump in another and both fit into the drawstring bag the stove comes with (along with the windscreen) and all of that goes with much room to spare into my 2.5 qt pot. Easy to disassemble and reassemble. Although have not needed to, repairs should be easy in the field.

Love it and would buy it again.

Perfect for boiling water, a little tough for temperature control however, and just about impossible to fry with.

A good fast boiling stove. It is my back up on a canoe trip.
takes a beating, and keeps on working. Had pump issues a while back and sent it back to MSR and they rebuilt it and sent it back it like new condition. They have excellent customer service.

I purchased this stove using the advice of others concerning the availability of using multiple fuels. I also purchased the repair kit, but have never had to get it out after hours and hours of use. I find it very reliable...

Multiple fuels, very light weight, nearly indestructable. Very important to keep clean- so it is not maintenance free.

As others have noted very lightweight. Good stove for exclusively HOT cooking. Not good for anything less than full tilt intense flame. I have retired mine in favor of a Drangonfly

Light, quiet and great for boiling water quickly, but that's about it. Given the price, I would not recommend one, nor would I ever purchase another.

I bought mine back when they were $49.99. Like already mentioned great fast boiling stove. Perfect for backpacking with freeze dried meals. We usually cook real food over the fire anyway so we use it for coffee and dish water.
Lightweight, small, simple and fuel versatility make it a keeper. Not sure i'd pay the $100.00 they're asking for it now though.
I've always wondered if a heat diffuser would help it.

I bought this stove a few years back when I started doing some backpacking trips. I bought it new in the box at a garage sale I stumbled across. I have no complaints about it. It works great every time I use it and it is nice and compact. I would definitely recommend it.
