The stove worked great! Light, easy set-up and heated the water quickly. I would advise getting the wind shield. A little extra weight but helps in the performance.

I recently took a trip to Mt. Whitney. At trail camp (12,500ft) the stove worked flawlessly. I tried the stove with and without the wind screen and found that the windscreen was needed most of the time. The auto start worked well yet is hard to see in daylight.

On the summit (14,497ft) the stove still performed very well with no issues.

Overall, it met all of my expectations and performed well. I would recommend this stove to anyone who is looking for a lightweight stove with good performance.
