MSR WhisperLite Stove

Like I said, I knew that I wouldn't use it a whole lot day to day, but as a collector, it's hard to avoid these vintage liquid fuel stoves, especially...

'll wrap this up. Nothing's perfect I think that as you can see it. So there's a little learning curve to this thing

As I said, you can get these stoves in their separate configurations for less money.

MSR WhisperLite International Stove. It has a sturdy base and can hold a decent sized pan/pot. I think they sell one with a windscreen kit, but I have always kept a few feet of heavy duty foil to use as a windblock.

Look, I don't want to be a wet sandwich, because there are plenty of folks with much more outdoor experience than me who rave about this stove. And it was those reviewers who inspired me to buy this.

I have cooked hundreds of meals on the trail and from an economic/weight factor, this stove is probably the lightest and least expensive to operat...

Works like a charm. I like that it's manually pressurized so that it doesn't matter what the elevation is or the temperature. I just have to pump until it's ready. There's no guesswork involved in figuring out how much fuel is left. Just take a look inside the bottle. However, it does get dirty and ...

I purchased the stove based on the positive feedback it received. The stove arrived as promised. When I opened the package I found it contained only the stove. Despite the fact that the item is pictured with the fuel bottle, the bottle IS NOT included in the listed price. It must be purchased separa...
