bought this stove a little while ago because I was not wanting to take my 2 burner propane stove. this stove starts easily and burns hot. simmering takes some practice but this stove is amazing. we cooked whole meals on this and it done great with regular pump gas. highly recommend.
The whisper light international is by far the gold standard of backcountry guides, trip leaders, those wanting extreme reliability in cold weather or unreliable fuel sources. This is a lifetime purchase. You will not be disappointed.
great lightweight camp stove, needed to replace my Coleman/Peak 1 stove and this was a great replacement
