User Review: Snow Peak LiteMax Titanium

I have been really impressed with how light and compact this backpacking stove is. I also own the MSR Whisperlite and it worked well and was super reliable, but....it was bulky. It is especially bulky and I would even consider heavy after owning the Snow Peak LiteMax Stove.

was originally going to purchase the MSR PocketRocket for my cooking configuration based on my pleasant experience with MSR products. However, it wouldn't fit into my Snow Peak Titanium Trekker 700 cup.  So...I am not myopic when it comes to the Snow Peak brand.

Currently my LiteMax Stove, fuel canister, and lighter all fit into my Snow Peak Titanium Trekker 700 cup.  The size/weight of this configuration is actually lighter and more compact than the actual Whisper lite stove.

As I've gotten older, I wanted something that is easy to start after a long hike.  You can't get any easier than screwing on the stove to the fuel canister

If your primary concern is weight, ease of use, and compact-ness, you CANNOT go wrong with this stove.
