I used this for the first time on a recent trip. The stove boils quickly and packs well.

I bought this after all the hype on what a great product this was. Wanted to ditch, the bring a pot with me on solo backpack trips this winter. After a few uses this winter on backpacking trips I have to say it works but pretty low quality. Igniter had issues from the start, fixed it, now it’s stopped again. Figured out using a lighter is just easier. Also the wire turn screw on the valve broke first day. I’ve also had problems getting a good seal, replace the o ring and that seamed to do the trick last trip. Not sure if it was just too cold or what. Really like the design and it boils really fast, but after a few issues this early on I don’t predict it will last very long. Going to try the msr version next.

The igniter on the jet boil base burner stopped working during the first trip I took it on. The igniter no longer sparks up to create a flame when the gas is turned on... a lighter works in push-button igniter, but its a bummer for a pricey item that could be replaced by a pot and a compact canister stove like the pocket rocket or BSR.

Use this primarily to boil water to make coffee. Brings water to a boild in a minute or two. Easy to assemble and pack back together. A must have for backpacking or traveling around.

I've been taking mine out on trips for 4 years or so. Not once has it failed me. Igniter still works and everything!

A Jetboil is an essential and necessary camping/backpacking item for me. The quick start makes this so easy to use. Such efficient way to cook and boil water all with being extremely pack-able. If you don't have one, you need one!

Jet boil is a standard trail side for a reason; easy to use and easy to clean. If you want a solid, simple stove to use, use this one.

This Jetboil is super nice to bring camping. I use this to cook my mountain houses rather than bring my huge stove. Its small enough to pack away and it's pretty light for a stove. It boils water insanely fast as well! I won't go camping without it.

Lightweight and convenient. This thing is great to throw in your pack for some quick tea at the summit or as your main cooking feature on a backpacking trip. Boils water in 100 seconds! Crazy. Be sure to get 4-season fuel if you're using it in the winter, though.

I had to pick up a new one because i stored it wet and i had some rust build up on the flash i have had for over 5 years. I got a new one because it has been so dependable and efficient through years of use. Great easy go to water boiler!

Weather im making coffee while camping, reheating chili on top of a mountain, boiling water for my dinner. It always comes in CLUTCH! Should be part of everyone gear!

I use my JetBoil just to boil water. But I use that water for coffee and freeze dried food. Love the speed and efficiency and "take-it-anywhere" convenience of the JetBoil. I've had it on the tailgate of my truck and on camping trips in camp. When I am done with it, I let it cool down and then I pack it up into my pack. Nothing better for speed, convenience, and the value of having a hot meal can't be understated.

MUST have for backpackers or everyday adventurers! I take this with me backpacking, hiking, spur of the moment camping or even sleeping outside of stores for good deals on Black Friday :) All components (including the fuel if you buy the small) fit conveniently inside the stove. It’s super light and makes boiling water a fun task instead of a time consuming chore. Water boils in less than a minute and if nothing else is good for emergency preparedness.

This is the best personal cooking stove out there, you can boil water in a very short period of time, cook other dry items in it while camping, and pack everything down nice and small. I love that the logo on the side tells you when the water is boiling by changing color, and everything fits just right.

have used one of these for over 5 years prior to buying this replacement (I lost the other one) and they are awesome! Nothing better for lightweight, rapid boiling of water in the backcountry. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for this specific purpose (quick and easy boiling of water).

Alright - let me tell you. I went backpacking in Coyote Gulch with some friends this summer. Majority of us brought our own cooking stove. After one night, we all shared just this one Jetboil. Why? Because it was faster than anything else we had, was easy to use, and heats water extremely fast and is super clean and mess proof! Because of this trip I've decided to bag my other stove from 2000 that takes up more space and has to have three other cups to use it. This one packs easy as well as everything fits inside of itself. Basically this guy is fool proof and I would recommend it to everyone and anyone. Can't go wrong and you should buy it ASAP. Packs easy as well. This 1L worked for 12 of us on one trip. I'd say it's a successful product!!!

I've had a flash stove for a few years now and I bought it with the intention of using as a backpacking stove. Like many, I do not backpack as much as I'd like to but the stove has served it's purpose when making coffee and dehydrated meals while keeping things relatively lightweight. I've used this stove more frequently on car camping or river trips as my go to water boiler for coffee. It boils water at a rapid pace and has me drinking coffee before the rest of the crew wakes up. It doesn't boil a ton of water so you won't be preparing coffee for 30 people but for a couple people using a pour over, perfection. The color changing indicator on the side of the pot no longer works but it's not hard to tell when water is boiling. Love it so much, I just bought one as gift. Gamechanger!

Lights up every time, I had an issue with wind blowing the flame out, but that was on me for picking a dumb spot, not on the stove. Used for a party of 4-6 on several trips and it worked like a charm and was very efficient as far as fuel usage. Also it's a nice way to passive aggressively wake up late sleepers.

Extremely convenient, very fast, easy to setup, and packs away into itself. Great for any water boiling needs when out camping. 2 cups of water boils in less than 1.5 minutes which is great when you are starving or wanting that morning cup of coffee. It is super simple to setup and only has a few parts that interlock together. Much faster and easier to use than a normal camping stove. Additionally, when packing it away everything fits into the “cup” part so it doesn’t take up a large amount of space in your backpack or camping box. It works with fuel other than jetboils, but the 3rd party fuel canisters won’t fit into the cup when storing.
