    NZHunter did a very thorough review of Jetboil type stoves. They were all way better then normal gas and similar in fuel efficiency from memory. It seemed to be personal choice as to which one to buy.

    In what way were they better stug ? Faster boil ?

    I just think they are heavy. My entire cook set, including gas, pot, stove weighs less than jetboil flash without canister

    Yeah, but you drill lightening holes in EVERYTHING ... which I would ordinarily agree with ... but the bottom of your billy has never been the same since ...

    Faster and a lot more fuel efficient. Also better in wind.

    They weigh F all , it's your lack of fuel that makes up for them any way . Small canister fits inside so very efficient shape/ size to carry as well . I rate mine 10/10
