I have an Optimus 8R, my very first backpacking stove (1973).
Went with MSR later, including a multifuel Whisperlite Internationale, terrific for overseas treks.
I would never have considered "COLEMAN", purveyor to car campers as a maker of backpacking stoves."

This stove has all the things you want from a compressed-fuel stove, plus performance that's better than liquid-fuel stoves, and light weight.
Operation: Take stove out of storage-bag, attach fuel canister by pushing into fitting and giving a quarter-turn to lock into place."

I've had this stove for almost 7 years now and it always performed flawlessly. I'm both a backpacker and an expedition kayaker up here in Canada. The stove went from extreme marine environment to january -30° winter outings without one moment of hesitation."

Boils enough water for two meals in less than three minutes with a decent wind screen,
Very adjustable flame,
NO PUMP which means no pumping and no associated pump problems,
Lightweight in comparison to many "backpacking" stoves,
Small enough to fit inside many pot and pan sets,
Works very well at both high altitudes and in cold weather (I've used it in the high Sierra in winter at about 5 degrees and above 10,000 ft)."
