For nearly two decades the award-winning MSR WhisperLite has remained the stove of choice for more backcountry experts than almost any other liquid fuel stove on the market. It features a simple and highly reliable design with a shaker jet self-cleaning valve for simplified maintenance. Over the years MSR refined their fuel pump with a simplified flame adjustment and a durable design. The stainless steel legs/pot supports fold down to fit easily inside most cooking pots. Liquid fuel stoves are an excellent choice for cooking in cold temperatures. Depending on altitude and temperatures, a twenty-ounce fuel bottle of MSR white gas will burn for a 136-minute average.
good stove
I like the stove it is vary small and great to cook with
MSR sets the standards
Just bought stove number 2, I already own the whisperlite internationale but could not pass up the deal on this one. I hike and camp with the wife and kids so having 2 stoves is a welcome option. Overall you cannot beat an msr stove, hands down!
Fantastic, same stove for 19 yrs, still works great
For those of you who find the wisperlight throttle a bit digital, you are probobly overpressurizing the fuel bottle, I have found as little as 3 pumps gives good temp control as wells as blazing heat, longer term cooking might require an extra pump or two as fuel pressure drops off, but for one or two I have not found it needed. All in all a true long term value for your pack.
