From REI:
"Up to 30% Savings during the REI Fall Sale! Plus members save 20% on one full price item. Ideal for your home or auto emergency kit, this pocket-size stove folds down to a small, compact size. Two-position design permits a low flame for controlled cooking or a direct flame for a quicker boil time. Powered by EsbitĀ® solid fuel tablets (6 included); each tablet burns for approximately 12 to 15 minutes,. Non-toxic fuel is environmentally safe, has no ash residue and is nearly odorless. Its small size and stable fuel source make this stove a great addition to your emergency preparedness kit. Additional fuel tablets sold separately."

"The most useful stove I own. Weighs almost nothing. Fits into (almost) any pocket. Fuel is stored in the stove for convenience. Solid fuel, no messes. Fuel can be used as an emergency fire starter in wet conditions, burns for 10 to 15 minutes per tab."

"You have to have an efficient setup to take full advantage of this design. Use a lightweight "pot" and try and keep it to about 2 cups with one tab. With a windscreen, it can boil up to 2 cups with one tab. More than that and it will take more than one tab. I am using it on the AT (thru-hike) and it gets the job done :)"

"It is not bad as an emergency backup. I had a hard time bringing any more than one cup of water to a boil per tablet, so I started building little twiggy fires as the tablet died down."

"Gets the job done. Not the quickest but at the price and weight it is hard to beat."
