User Review: Primus MultiFuel

Primus MultiFuel
Above: The current MultiFuel, which may differ slightly from the version reviewed.

Rating: rated 4 of 5 stars
Price Paid: $50

I just used this on a 5 day backpacking trip and I used an MSR fuel canister. The stove worked very well overall. I like that it comes with a thin metal windscreen. It is fairly loud when it is turned up high and you are right next to it but if you walk 20 feet away it is not that much louder than other stoves.

I have had a little bit of trouble lighting it. Sometimes I will have my lighter lit and then I turn on the gas and it literally blows out the lighter flame instead of igniting. It is kind of stubborn and sometimes does that several times but it always eventually lit. When you first light it, you can't turn the flame down very low but after it has been on for several minutes, the flame is much more adjustable and you can get it down to a nice simmering level.

Remember that I've only used it with a canister and not with white gas or anything else. Finally, the bag that it comes in is is very durable and a great size to fit the stove and the windscreen.
