Good Points: Powerful, very stable, piezo ignition, good value if you shop around, pan support lifts off for washing.
Bad Points: None in particular revealed as yet.
General comments: Unlike most stoves this one is of a "flat" design and the gas canister sits by the side of it in a seperate compartment, this means that the canister can be changed easily if it runs out mid-brew up and it has a safety interlock to prevent a full one being inserted with the gas control on.
It comes in a carry case which is handy but the plastic on this does seem a bit thin. In a weeks camping for the two of us we got through 2 cylinders which did our A.M./P.M. brew and evening meal. The best price I have seen for gas is from Argos bought in a bulk box containing 12 canisters for £14.99 which works out at about £1.25 per can which is much cheaper than buying singly.
The design of the burner and pan support is very solid and stable having a lower C.O.G." than most stoves and should take quite big/heavy pans ETC. I got mine on ebay but while on HOLS" I saw one in a camping shop for £9.99 and at this kind of price that really is a good buy.
