User Review: Jetboil Personal Cooking System (PCS)

Rating: rated 5 of 5 stars
Price Paid: ~60

Purchased earlier this summer for 1-3 day hikes in Utah area. Excellent for short trips, for boiling water for a few of people. Also purchased tripod stand and coffee press for an additional $20 a piece; Both are well worth the xtra $. Coffee press is nice for morning coffee.

Skeptical at first, however soon became believer in this stove; quick and reliable for what it is meant for. Was able to boil 2-4 cups of water in 4-5 minutes at 9-10K altitude and 30-40F Temps, with Snow Peak fuel.

Will use later this Fall to test performance in a little colder temps.

For 3 season short trips, strongly recommend, can't say for late fall and winter. I have read recommendations to use MSR or Jetboil's fuel for late fall/winter trips.
