I was debating getting either the Raptor or the MSR PocketRocket. I went to a local outfitter to check out both of the models, while at the store my wife accidentally bent the supports on PocketRocket's display model. She isn't that strong of a women so right away I became suspicious of the strength of the PocketRocket.

Right next to the PocketRocket was the Raptor, this made comparing the thickness of the supports much easier, and there is in fact a very noticeable difference in the thickness of steel used. After my quick trip to the outfitter I started reading the reviews of the two stoves. The Raptor was the clear winner in user reviews (as evident below). Besides all the reviews I read and trips I took the deciding factor was the piezo ignition system and the overall quality of the Raptor. If you are looking to save money and time buy the Raptor, you won't be sorry.
