User Review: Jetboil Personal Cooking System (PCS)
Rating: ![]()
Price Paid: $75
The Jetboil system is unique in that it forms one unit. It is very efficient at boiling water. With minor modifications (a zip tie and some string) the Jetboil can be hung while cooking. This approach is much more stable than trying to sit it on the ground. The unit is very unstable when full. Another drawback is that if you allow the unit to over-boil, it is almost impossible to turn it off without getting burned.
Aside from that, I enjoyed using the Jetboil on my last trip. It is lightweight and fuel efficient but has certain cooking limitations. The burner of the Jetboil has very low output. This is fine until you need to use a pot over the unit for a meal. It has a more difficult time heating conventional cookware than a regular canister or multi-fuel stove.
