Read More This stove rocks. I've taken this stove on almost every hike. It's been up winter hikes in South Sister and provided me with warm meals on the Hog's Back on Mt. Hood. Operates above 10,000ft, it's simple no nonsense, and sturdy given its light design. It even folds up and tucks away in the 700 Titanium trek stove with a spark fuel tank! In terms of ability to sustain damage. My wife accidently lit it up with the stove on full blast. Subsequently the igniter caught fire and melted. No worries we just replaced the igniter and were back in business. This unit pairs nicely with the windshield. Bottom line it's a high quality lightweight unit that works. Snow Peak cares about quality. -

Read More Bought this stove after realizing that I forgot to stuff my MSR Pocket Rocket into my suitcase. Now that I'm back from my trip, I'll be listing the MSR for sale. The MSR wasn't a bad stove but the pot supports aren't as stable as the GigaPower. Not only does the GigaPower have 4 arms vs 3 but there's much more surface contact as well. I would've preferred the version without the lighter for weight/cost savings but after using the stove around 20x, I'm kind of glad I did. The convenience is great and while I'd still bring matches as a backup, the stove would also serve as a backup in case I were to lose my matches. :) -

Read More I bought this about a year ago in my efforts to lighten my pack after a back injury. This little stove is perfect! It's nice and light weight, the titanium cools relatively quickly when you're done cooking, and the piezo push-button starter means no more matches, flint, etc. -

Read More My first stove choice is a my Titanium Emberlit wood burning stove. At a fixed 5.5 ounces I can cook as much as I want without running out of or carrying fuel. Because of this year's (2015) drought and fire restrictions I was forced to purchase a canister stove. I chose this stove because of the price, weight, ease of use and great reviews. Honestly, I HATE carrying fuel, but I have to admit this little stove just sipped at my fuel canister. It is easy to set up and start. I never once had a problem with the igniter that others have complained about. Even if I had, it would light easily enough with a match. I do recommend getting the windshield to help focus the heat upwards. The case for the stove it ridiculously small and I was afraid I would break something every time I stored it away, so during my trips I just put it in the pot with the fuel canister and left the case at home.For a canister stove, it's the bomb! -

Read More This stove is incredibly lightweight and packs down very small. It's quick and easy to set up, and pretty sturdy for its size. It wasn't the speediest boil I've ever seen, even in still conditions, but it got the job done (and maybe I just need to be less conservative with the power). It also holds a nice simmer for cooking things like oatmeal. It is sensitive to wind, so I recommend carrying a wind screen if you expect to be in windy conditions with nothing to form a wind break. The stove comes equipped with a piezo igniter, but I strongly recommend carrying matches or another ignition source. More often than not on my recent three-day trip, I ended up resorting to matches after the piezo igniter repeatedly failed to start the stove. I was concerned about wasting fuel and eventually just defaulted to using matches. All in all, though, a solid little stove, and one I plan to keep using on backpacking and local camping trips alike. -

Read More I just took this stove on it's first trip (a week on the A.T.) and had a great experience. It lights easily, heats evenly and the heat output really is adjustable for simmering, boiling, etc. I splurged on the metal tripod attachment (about an ounce and worth carrying) and am glad I did. Like any canister stove the stability is dependent on a flat surface. With the tripod it's much more stable, even with a pot big enough to feed 3 hungry backpackers. The piezo lighter works fine, and I ran into another hiker whose lighter was still going strong after a year's use, but one of my companions managed to crack the piezo on the 5th day while fiddling with the windscreen. That said, it's a great little stove, not much heavier than an alcohol stove and a lot more versatile. The smaller fuel canister lasted for 3 1/2 days of the trip, I expect the larger canister would be good for a week depending on the menu. I'd enthusiastically recommend this to a friend, though I wish REI still carried the slightly cheaper version without the piezo igniter. -

Read More Yes backpacker magazine was right. This is an awesome stove, proven last weekend while hiking Mirror Lake, Uintah Mtns UT & camping at Shady Dell down the street. This stove outperformed my son in laws 2 MSR stoves which were burning everything. The snow peak reigned supreme with it's ability to simmer all so slow & smooth.
