"So after two failed Hiker + stoves was my third one any better? After testing this stove I have unfortunately come to the conclusion it is NOT fit for purpose.

This is a great shame because I have had two 111s for 40 years. One of them I have managed to service to get me cooking again."

"The first one had a leak in the fuel tank and would not pressurise.

The second one would burn for 3 mins before sooting up.
This happened on each occasion I tried to use it.

I now await delivery of my third one!!! Third time lucky?"
