From REI:
"Burns wood, charcoal, pine cones, bark or any solid fuel; lower unit fits inside burner for compact storage and easy packing. Compact, lightweight, wood burning stove cooks your meals in the outdoors while eliminating the need to carry fuel; great for backpacking or camping. Forced air technology creates 18,000 btu/hr using a small fan and a AA battery to provide six hours of cooking time. Heat is controlled by setting fan to high, low or off. Just attach lower fan/battery unit to main burner, start a small fire inside burner, start fan and begin cooking."

"This is the coolest stove you can buy. Small size and weight, never carry fuel. The only thing that needs improvement is the quality of the manufacturing. It is functional, but a little cheaply made. I will be making my own power supply for my Zip stove when I get around to it, because the one that it comes with shorts out sometimes."

"I owned the original Zip Ztove and have never used anything else. Most people do not know how to use it. Turn the fan on to boil and turn the fan off to simmer. I sell the old Ztoves and have only a few left. The new ones have way too much on them."

"I've used this stove in all kinds of weather conditions on the southern AT. Using a lithium battery I've been on the trail for weeks using a single battery. I have my water boiling well before others using gas stoves. I make sure to pack cotton soaked with vaseline for a quick start to the fire. I wouldn't own any other stove."

"This thing was great. We used a windproof match to get the little fire started and that's it. It worked flawlessly burning water quickly. The only thing is we were a little worried about the open flame in the wind. The flames get pretty large. We had to operate on low to be safe."

"The stove(s) arrived in small carboard boxes with a minimum of packaging; a good first start. Instructions were quite clear on proper use; also some good hints at efficient use. Initial assembly was easy. Weight was as advertised. I own both the steel and titanium models."
