Great for a little extra peace of mind
I'd never had any issues with canister stoves (knock on wood), but would get nervous leaving things unattended even for a few seconds. So when I saw this product, it was one of those "duh" moments and I immediately grabbed one. It fits the small MSR canister as well as the bigger Coleman and JetBoil canisters. It folds up nicely, takes up minimal space, and is light.
The only possible concern is the spring on the adjustable black piece going. Other than that, it's a great little addition to a canister stove setup.

good investment for canister-top stoves
I have a Pocket Rocket that I use for short trips and before buying the MSR canister stand I scalded myself twice tipping over the top-heavy stove+pot filled with boiling water. I was about to give up on the PR when I found this in an REI store. Works fine, esp. when you have to dig a little to level your stove - you can't do that very effectively with the canister alone. BTW, the plastic model for the other brand stove will not fit MSR-size canisters. Attempts to force a plastic stand to fit an MSR canister will break the stand.

clever little device
Took this on it's first trip last week (1 week on the A.T). My concern with canister stoves is the lack of stability on uneven surfaces. This little device fits large or small canisters and makes them much more stable, even when using a pot large enough to feed 3 or 4 backpackers. Weighs only about an ounce and worth it for safety and to avoid spilling dinner.

Great product
I bought this to make my Soto OD-1R stove more stable and it did the job very well. The stand grips the canister by the small lip at the base of the canister so well that there is no wriggle at all. The spring loaded black part holds it solidly.

Works well with non-MSR canisters too
I was looking for a canister stabilizer for my Snowpeak Gigapower stove, and found that this metal base is secure and stable with MSR and Snowpeak fuel canisters (8 oz and 4 oz sizes). I had some tipping incidents prior to getting this stand with heavier larger pots, but none after (with 3 continuous solid weeks of backpacking use). Highly recommended.

Solid product for non-solid ground!
After witnessing my jetboil consistently tip over while camping at the beach, I purchased this product. It seamlessly grips the bottom of any iso/butane canister, locking it in place, and greatly improves stability. I don't leave for a camping trip without it. Fyi, it works amazing in the sand!

Stability is a Good Thing
Stability is a Good Thing when dealing with hot stuff. This is small, light, and quick to attach to a canister. I use this with my Pocket Rocket, and have not lost a load of hot water yet. I highly recommend this for anyone using a canister stove. Worth the weight in the pack.

Just what I needed
Exactly what I was looking for. I had been eyeing the Jet Boil stabilizer kit, but this one seems much more solid (metal vs. plastic). With just one use to date I already know it fits the bill for what I needed. Could be a bit smaller and/or titanium for weight. Other than those very minor comments, this is perfect.

Does the slide on the leg lock in place?
​The slide lock on the leg is spring load. The black lock is locked when attached to the canister and when not in use.
