Summary

Solo Stove a great camping stove and lightweight.

Pros

Very light weight
No gas needed
Very little wood needed to boil water

Cons

Have to feed fire constatly to keep flame
Can only use very small peices of wood for it to burn properly

Received the Solo Stove for Christmas and was very excited. I took it out back for a test run and found it to be very easy to get started and easy to keep burning with very little wood. The stove was cooled down enough in about 3-4 minutes to pack up and move on down the trail, if in the woods.

A main point that I like about the Solo Stove is that the fuel for it is usually found on the forest floor and you don't have to carry gas around in your pack. I can't wait to use it on backpacking trips. I'm sure you will be very satisfied with the stove.
