Large burnerSimmer controlStandard thread canister compatibleLight weight for size of burnerMy 1ish complaintWhen i recieved the burner i noticed the top support arms were not quite straight. In attempting to straighten them the tiny spot weld failed and the two pieces fell apart. To fix this i simply have a welder and was able to weld that puppy up super strong while i was fixing that I also drilled extra holes in the top of the burner so there is extra flame and the flame gets directly under small cups as well. These catch flame, stay lit, and work great.

This little unit opens up to support decent sized pots. Of course the other side of that is how much support can your gas canister provide? Perhaps with an additional foot setup for the gas canister, you could get even more mileage out of it. The unit itself can be a little tricky to assemble though. The threads are very fine and have to be lined up just right to prevent stripping. Still, with a little patience and mechanical dexterity you'll get the hang of it.

I purchased this as a larger alternative to the micro stoves as I plan to use it with a 1lb. propane adapter for slightly larger cookware and with the larger burner and folding arm extensions it should do well. I ran a test with propane and the burner lit fully. You have to open the gas valve slowly or it'll blow itself out but it might be because of the 1lb. Propane tank I'm using. I may revisit this review after further use but so far so good.

This burner does take up a little more room than some of the ones that fold up more and have a more centralized flame. However, it's not larger by much or heavier.What I like about it over the smaller ones is that the flame comes out more like a regular stovetop burner, so it is much better for using with a pan to cook rather than just boiling water.My wife purchased one of the smaller ones and we used each of them to cook some steaks in pans on a primitive camping trip. In comparison, the smaller one wasn't as good at holding the pan and didn't do as well at distributing the heat, since the flame is condensed at the center. Mine performed just as well for boiling water with a nested camping pot set, so there isn't really an advantage to the smaller ones.In conclusion, I would say that this is the better of styles for ultralight burners. Especially in the case that you want to do more traditional cooking with it and not just boiling water...which it also does quite well.

Es muy pequeño y solo es la arrillita el tanquesito mo viene

If you have convinced yourself that you're an elitist, and must spend 3-4 times, or more, the cost of this little stove, read no further. If you're looking for a very well made, easy to light, boil water to frying an egg stove, this is it. I wanted this design due to its' broad flame base. The smaller surface on some others, boils water no problem, but for cooking, will create a hot spot. This has wide pot flanges, making it very easy to prepare food in a "normal" size skillet or pot. I fried eggs in a 8" skillet, and there is more than enough room for it. This stove has a small simmer flame, and I have read, although I haven't tried it, other's have prepared rice with it. No,it does not have a piezo electronic ignition. I fail to understand why this is such a big deal to some, unless the basic concept of starting a fire with a bic lighter is beyond them. I weighed the stove with fuel canister, then let it set overnight. Re-weighing it the following morning showed no leakage. One reviewer stated his had some leakage, but after applying silicone to the rubber gasket, the leak stopped. Comes with a very well made case, with one drawback. It would have been nice if there had been some padding added, but can't see this as a big deal, since it will be in my pack. Happy trails!

I hooked this stove up at home and checked it out. The flame is excellent; broad and infinitely adjustable. I will be able to cook the best scrambled eggs with this thing. My stove leaked gas at first. I could smell it and checked the weight loss overnight...4 grams in about 10 hours. I was about to send it back but decided to try a little silicone grease. I coated the top and bottom of the large rubber gasket, hooked it back up and let it set all day. No weight loss in 12 hrs and no gas smell. If you don't have silicone grease, I bet any grease or even a bit of oil would help make a better seal. The stove feels kinda flimsy but it's super lightweight, compact and the flame is better than some of those more expensive stoves. I got a jetboil for christmas a couple of years ago. Total junk for cooking anything but water. The flame is far to concentrated and there's no adjust-ability; it's either on full blast or completely off. For $12 this is an amazing bargain and it works with very common and easily obtainable fuel.

I bought it for tundra camping. It doesnt like much wind...15mph and less is fine but 20 it went out on 3/4 open. tho I haven't tried it in 25mph+ I think it will need some blockage to avoid it going out. Nice wide top and stores very small. Cheaper metal so I'm guessing it wont last more than 30 to 40 fires before it starts to get big holes like a grill burner that gets old.
