    I'm pretty sure much like most things if you look after it should be fine. Just keep the load balanced.

    Pretty sweet little unit really.
    I do like the jetboil though, good all in one unit, but it's hard to beat the lack of bulk in the pot/ burner setup

    one of the three arms on this titanium jobbie doesn't lock firmly due to a loose rivet. probably not a major but it shows marginal quality control

    Yeah I can imagine for the price and the way they pump them out they wouldn't look over them too hard.
    Can you place it on the bench and tap it a few times Reith a hammer to tighten it up?

    Put one side of rivet over something solid (piece of steel in vice). Use a centre punch on upper side of river and tap very lightly-tap n check, tap n check for movement.

    Common problem w many rivet constructed items.

    Or replace w a small bolt n nylon nut

    I've had to repair many camp chairs n tables this way
