User Review: MSR SimmerLite

Rating: rated 4 of 5 stars
Source: bought it new

Summary

Powerful and reliable.

Pros

  • Efficient
  • Effective

Cons

  • Sooty

I got this stove for winter camping to melt snow. I was previously using a Jetboil Group Cooking System, which worked, albeit slowly, and with much effort devoted to keeping the canisters warm. 

This stove works great, is easy to maintain and really gets melts snow fast. It's been a game changer. I chose the Simmerlite because the pot supports are this enough to fit in between the flux ring grooves under my Jetboil pot. It was nice not to have to buy another pot for this stove.

My one complaint is that there is a fair amount of carbon black that collects under the burner during use. It's not a big deal, but you do have to clean it off after every trip.
