## Description

desertcart.com: MSR WhisperLite Compact Camping and Backpacking Stove : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Whisperlite perfect! - I purchased this to replace my 30 year old International model after the fuel line started leaking (not a product flaw, more of a lack of use over several years). I knew the International was capable of multi fuel use, but I never used anything other than white gas anyway. Comparing prices between this whisperlite model and the current international model, I made the decision to go with the standard whisperlite model. Straight out of the box it boiled 3 cups of water in 4 minutes. This is a proven stove with no competitor on the market in its class. Price at $44.97 (prime exclusive), weight at less than 1 lb, efficiency is incredible, durability is out of this world. If you are looking for a reliable, lightweight backpacking stove, this is an awesome decision, even at a potentially higher price of $89-$99 range. Plus, with minor maintenance, it will provide you with solid performance 30 years down the trail. Thank you MSR for making such a wonderful product. A lot changes over 30 years. I'm so happy that this product has stayed true to service and reliability. UPDATE: I've seen a lot of reviews that criticize the "simmer" capabilities of the whisperlite stoves, both the standard and international models. I will say the control knob on the older model pumps allowed for more intuitive flame control, it just felt better rolling the knob as opposed to twisting the valve. Nuance, I know, but in the conversation... I have been able to fry an egg over easy with no problems. It does require a deft hand and watchful eye, but is certainly possible with little fidgeting other than managing the flame at its lowest burn point. I would not discourage anyone from purchasing this stove due to the simmer capabilities. It will simmer and cook on low flame as long as you watch it and monitor the amount of food in the pan/ pot. Stay vigilant.
Review: GREAT little stove. - Unless you're looking for a 1 oz alcohol stove for ultralight, this is a great stove. It puts out a lot of heat and boils that water in no time. It really sips fuel too. The base is nice and stable. Comes with a base heat shield and a tall wind shield that are essential to use with the stove. I've burned a picnic table even when using the base. And if you don't have the wind shield in place, you'll wait forever for the water to boil even in a small breeze. And you can overheat your fuel bottle without that wind screen in place - BOOM! Packs small. It's a little harder to use than a butane or propane stove because of the liquid fuel that needs to be vaporized by the heat of the stove. You light raw fuel in the fuel bowl at the base of the stove and heat it up with the open flame before turning on the fuel bottle. Just don't let the open flame burn out before turning the stove on or you'll have to wait 5-10 mins to relight safely. The open fuel soots up the bottom of the stove and the legs, but it cleans off easily with a rag or baby wipe before you store it in the pouch. Another great MSR product.
