PocketRocket Deluxe

Super light weight and boils very fast. We compared it to the cheaper $20 version (I cant recall the brand but its here on amazon) and this thing blows it out of the water.We were at high elevation with mist, wind, and light rain, and this thing boiled water fast. It has far more burners than the cheaper brands, and so far the igniter has not been an issue.It folds down to almost nothing and fits nicely inside our cook pot. Our pot is a bit larger than the stove itself, so we picked up a fuel can stabilizer and everything was stable.We have had zero issues with stability or functionality. Its worth the money knowing that your equipment will not fail on the trail. For redundancy's sake, bring a mini bicycle just in case (we didnt need it)

The MSR PocketRocket stove is an absolute must-have! This compact stove packs a powerful punch, delivering quick and efficient cooking wherever adventure takes you.Its lightweight and portable design make it a backpacker's dream. It easily fits into any pack without adding unnecessary weight, and the assembly is straightforward, allowing for hassle-free setup in no time.But what truly sets this stove apart is its incredible performance. Despite its small size, it produces a strong, consistent flame that boils water and cooks meals rapidly. Whether it's for a quick cup of coffee or a full meal, the PocketRocket gets the job done efficiently.Durability is another standout feature. Constructed with quality materials, it's built to withstand rugged outdoor conditions, ensuring reliability trip after trip.Overall, the MSR PocketRocket stove is a five-star gem! Its compactness, powerful performance, ease of use, and durability make it an indispensable companion for any outdoor adventure, whether it's hiking, camping, or backpacking.

This feels very well built and high quality feel to dispite how small and light weight it is. The ignite button works great too. Won't go camping without it for coffee and oats in the morning. Has a good storage bag that it comes in and boils water very fast.

The media could not be loaded. IF YOU PLAN TO BE IN COLD (< 40°F), GET THIS STOVE! This “deluxe” version is a regulated stove, which allows you to get sustained amount of heat to your pot even in cold temperatures. I used the stove at the top of El Capitan in Yosemite wilderness at 30°F and was able to boil water without any problem. The stove is light compact fits in my 700 mL titanium cup with my fuel canister and a mini lighter. Worked great and reliably on a SOLO 3 DAY backpack through the Yosemite wilderness.

I compared the MSR Pocket Rocket Deluxe to several other small, lightweight, stoves of similar construction. I measured the amount of gas used, and the time it took, for each individual stove to boil 4 cups of water (all starting from the same temperature). I noted how wide the supports (that the pan sits on) reached to, and how stable the support was. I used a separate, new, generic brand, 16 oz ISO Butane Propane canister for each stove (that used ISO Butane/Propane) and a new 1 LB propane canister for the one stove that used propane. The MSR Pocket Rocket Deluxe boiled the water the fastest and used the least amount of gas to reach a rolling boil. (The gas canisters were weighed before and after boiling the water.) It also has the most stable pan support with the exception of the propane stove which is bulky and much heavier. The MSR Deluxe is also the best constructed of the ISO Butane/Propane units and is the lightest weight of the stoves. ((Note: I conducted the tests in an ambient air temperature of about 48 degrees F, with no wind.))

I haven't used it yet so I can't attest to how well it works. But it should work well in my Gobag.

Love the newer style burner and fairly good wind protection. I also like that the stands are fixed to the unit, rather than separated when not in use. Back to wind protection, I use this to rapid boil less than 2 cups of water in a 700ml titanium pot at high heat. So I wouldn’t imagine the wind being an issue because this thing roars when opened up. This stove does a decent job of hovering at a low heat for simmering, but thats not what it’s designed for.I have had some inconsistency issues with the piezo click igniter. I’ll run into times where it doesn’t work, and then lights on the first push the next time. This isn’t a deal breaker for me, since any self respecting outdoor enthusiast will have a lighter on them, or a friend that does. No piezo will ever be 100% efficient or untreatable.

Good for camping.small, strong. pretty.
