User Review: Soto Micro Regulator Stove

I read the Backpacker review and decided to get one. 

When it arrived, I put the stove AND a fuel canister in my freezer for 4 days at -5F.  It lit on the very first try so I am convinced that it works in cold weather. 

I live at sea level and I haven't had the opportunity to try it at altitude yet, hence the 4.5 rating. 

I highly recommend this stove for its small size, light weight, convenience of use,and cold weather performance. The only quirky thing is that the fuel valve needs to be opened 2.5 full turns to get it to light but I knew that before I lit it the first time.
