"I love this stove, I’ve been shopping for a new stove for a while and considered a Jet Boil, and I do a lot of cooking so I was going to get the pot also. It made more sense to get the Primus with a pot and a frying pan. It ended up being a lot cheaper than a Jet Boil, pot and frying pan."

"I have just used the stove around the house, so this is a preliminary review. It comes in a case, but I'll likely leave that behind - it's a little heavy and I don't really see an advantage in using it.

This stove is fast. I heated . 5 liters of water in it and went inside to get the food laying on the counter in the kitchen."
