Great burner. Lot of knock-offs that are almost as good but much heavier. Also this one will last a long time.

Great burner for backpacking. If you want to use it while hunting, skip this. It is significantly louder than a jet boil.

The BRS is not a knockoff is lighter and functions quite well. I have three of them. And have used them for almost a decade. They're great. and weighs half the weight of this.

They're $15 regularly.

I bought one in 2007 or 2006 that's still running strong. Looks like there have been a few updates to the design since then

I have this burner from 2010, and it is still my go to for anything less than a 3 day trip. I love this thing, and it's practically indestructible.

My cheaper Fire Maple crapped out on me during my last backpacking trip. Time for an upgrade.

Depending on your use.

If you are back packing, but not doing extreme stuff then
Something like a jetbroil would better for most. Just easier and more compact to keep everything together.
This is only if you are doing water heat ups and adding to dehydrated foods, water and coffee.

This one you can take camping and cook food with that you want to put together,but youll need additional things like a cooking cookware.

If you are into extreme backpacking you probably already know what you want and thats the msr whisper light where its wind proof and can different types of fuel cans etc.

Youll want to make sure it has an igniter included.

Yes, you can do without in all in one for backpacking, but when you are done after a long day, its nice to sit and not look for parts, heat up water and make instant food and sleep.

Its all about usage and needs. They all have pros and cons based on what you want/need.

I understand this MSR one is lighter and more compact but I've had nothing but a great experience using this one for my trips:

It boils fast, is a more wind resistant design and also has the built in igniter that hasn't failed me yet. Just sharing in case anyone is shopping around.

Edit: I also am aware this is a knock off of a Soto Windmaster.

The reason I own MSR stoves is because they will literally last forever. And if they were to ever break, they have good warranty
