Comments about Jetboil Pot Support and Stabilizer:
There are really two products here. There is the three legged support that goes under the fuel tank. This is easy to use and deserves 4 or 5 stars. Then there is the metal ring that allows you to place a pan on top of your JetBoil. This is very hard to get installed and deserves 1 or 2 stars. However, it is your only choice if you want to use the Jetboil Fluxring Fry Pan.

Pretty basic stabilizer. Nothing overly special as far as good or bad. It does what it's suppose to.

Comments about Jetboil Pot Support and Stabilizer:
All in all this is a great little pair for your whole jet boil system. Very lightweight and easy to use. However the leg base and the metal base have no true traction to give for any type of surface for the possibility for tiping and sliding. If you have flat grounds your in the clear though!

Comments about Jetboil Pot Support and Stabilizer:
I bought my JetBoil @2005, and purchased this item at the same time. The plastic support for the gas has worked perfectly with the SnoPeak, JetBoil, and Brunton gas containers, both large and small, that I have used. I use this support every time without fail. The stability it offers makes it too convenient to leave off. I have no complaints.
What I have used less often, is the metal pan support. For myself, I've used this with a military mess kit, both the pot, and the skillet. When using the skillet, I am attentive to the balance of it, and if necessary, will remove the handle while cooking. Likewise, I have no complaints about this item. I do not use the JetBoil pot or pan, and cannot comment on the complaints of others. But using anything without a flux ring...such as my mess kit, I would see no problems.

Comments about Jetboil Pot Support and Stabilizer:
I bought this along with the PCS stove, utensils, and fry pan recently. The printed directions that came with it were unclear and it took me several minutes of staring at pictures and the product to get how it worked. Once over that hurdle it was game on. Unlike some prior reviews, I didn't have any stability issues. It locked securely into place on the detents that hold the cup.
I toyed with cooking several things in the pan and found no stability issues (I was using a 250g gas canister on a hard, level surface).
Weight is a non-issue and it fits just fine between the fuel can and stove when stowed in the cup.
If using a 100g fuel can, I strongly reccomend using cannister support legs or supporting the stove somehow. As light as the pan is, I can still see it getting unbalanced fairly easily.

Comments about Jetboil Pot Support and Stabilizer:
Bought this to use the stabilizer with the Snow Peak Giga Power stove and canisters. It's a shame they didn't package these two items separately. I have no use for the pot support but I really wanted the stabilizer.

Comments about Jetboil Pot Support and Stabilizer:
Love the JetBoil system, but this accessory is a bit of an Achilles heal. I agree with other reviews that the pot support does not seat well and tends to catch on the pot rings. It also has a tendancy to become slightly bent, which means that it won't nest into the JetBoil unit for storage. Needs some redesign!

Great accesory to have on hand if you need to cook more than the Flash cup capacity.
It is plenty stable,the 1/4 turn lock works perfect,fuel can stabilizer works great also.

Comments about Jetboil Pot Support and Stabilizer:
Ok, there is good here too - the metal pot stabilizer works fine, though you only want to install it if you are using a pot other than the standard jetboil pot, and once you use it you have to wait for to cool down before switching back to the regular pot. The plastic canister stabilizer works very well too, but removing it from the larger size canisters is all but impossible. I have now broken two of these trying to get them off. Skip this "accessory" or you'll just have to carry it out of the backcountry. Not worth the trouble.

Comments about Jetboil Pot Support and Stabilizer:
The Jetboil system is rather tall, so the can support is a real help to stabilize it and keep it from tipping over. Use the can support even in Personal Cooking (PCS) mode. The flux ring support is necessary to use the Group Cooking (GCS) pot and the frypan. The pot supports fold out and fit between the heat fins on the flux ring of both the pot and pan. However, the fins tend to catch on the pot supports and since it just sets on top of the stove ring, the support tends to lift off while cooking. The system works well but takes some practice. Both pieces will store inside the PCS boiler for transport.
