User Review: Jetboil Personal Cooking System (PCS)

Rating: rated 5 of 5 stars
Price Paid: $79.99

I received this as a gift this last Christmas. Since then I've used it twice. The first time I used it was on Wildcat in January. It was really cold, but not windy where we took lunch. I tried to boil some water for soup, but could only get it to bubble a little. It was still hot enough to make soup, and too hot to drink. I was still kind of disappointed though.

Then I used it during a hike two weeks ago. Both times that hike I made ramen and it boiled very quickly. Just remember to lower the heat after you get it boiling, before you put the noodles in, or else it overboils. Which is annoying. I have the support and pot attachment which are great, but over priced. I haven't used up a fuel canister yet, but hear they last a while. This is a great compact lightweight hiking stove. I love it.
