"10 years on, still going strong" 08/17/12
10 years on, the only thing i ever needed to replace was the leather cup inside the pump, after about 4-5 years. from snow blizzards in northern ontario to chilly mornings in high altitude rockies or the dusty southern utah, my nova stove never failed me.to be sure, this is not the cheapest liquid gas stove on the market, but it's certainly one of the best, one that should (with simple care) last you a long time.
"This stove is pretty great. It is easy to use and start up quick and is made to last." 12/23/11
I took this stove along with me on my trip to Big Bend National park. We camped and hiked for four days and it worked great for me. I t was sturdy and got things cooked quick and burns for quite some time. I would recommend this to anyone doing some recreational camping and hiking.
"Great stove. Cooked dinner for six adult men without a problem." 12/02/09
I've used this on several boyscout backpacking trips and have not had any problems. I have been the cook for the adults when we go and it has never let us down no matter the weather. I have only used white gas in it though. Tricky to figure out how to light at first but once you get it down it works great. The flame level adjustment works great.
"For the experienced outdoor culinar!" 07/02/09
This stove is excellent! I've used it exclusively with Kerosene, and it has proven reliable and easy to clean through many meals in many environments. The pot supports are super strong too; I've used my big 20lb cast iron wok on it a number of times, and I tell you what, I kind of prefer it to my home stove. It gets hot! But, it also simmers real nice, though you might need to trust your ears that it is still working, as in full sunlight the 'simmer' flame is invisible. The magnetic shaker valve cleaner works real nice for two or three pot meals; not having to shut down and let it cool to clean it is a big plus! It is loud on high, however; that's the only negative I can think of.
"Did not work in the clutch" 11/10/08
Tried the product out at home and worked great. I then took it into the Arkansas Wilderness and it didn't work. I checked everything over and there was pressure in the bottle but somehow, whenever I opened the valve there was no fuel getting to the stove. I tried clearing the fuel line with the nice magnetic tool but that didn't seem to help. We would have been in trouble but we had a spare stove, so we didn't have to eat cold pizza making ingredients. The stove construction seems pretty solid and I liked the size. I feel like I just got a dud. Based on the price of this bad boy I have hopes that your stove will be better than the one I got.
"Super good" 11/03/08
This is a really good stove; very powerful, great flame control, packs super small.It comes with a good carrying bag, and the multi tool with which you can take it apart completely. The easy cleen system is really helpful; the only downs are: 1. The fact that it takes a while to prime, and it takes practice to do it properly. 2. The time it takes to empty the hose when you turn the bottle.Overall very good product.
"I like this stove works every time. I'd buy this stove again over the competition." 11/07/07
Not So Nice This isn't the quietest stove. you always know it's on Fuel valve adjustment rotates near the base of the stove you need to straighten the cable to rotate it easily. Not that big a deal though. You need to be careful priming to not release too much fuel. Nice Strong heat output. Very strong, stable base for holding pots. Fuel pump and bottle are quality. Comes with useful accessories. Note The stove comes with a bottle, carry case, very small parts kit less than either of the accessory kits, and a windscreen.
"Hardy stove with a simple yet nifty design." 10/10/07
Durable stove with metal pump and sturdy construction. Space saving design, and holds large pots easily. Flame can be controlled from far away from the tank, and with gloves on. Only negatives are the large flame produced when preheating the stove, and the stove takes a while to depressurize. Simmers well.
"Best stove out there!" 09/14/07
This is an excellent stove and is far superior to the MSR stoves for the following reasons 1 It has excellent flame control comparable to the MSR Dragonfly 2 The pump is all metal construction and won't break on you like the MSRs which you are supposed to take a replacement with you in case it does break - 35! 3 Has easy on/off setup to drain the fuel line 4 Has a quick disconnect line 5 Magnetic shaker jet so you can clean the line while it is running or hot 6 Looks super cool and nobody has them It's a little pricier but it is much better built than MSRs .
"The best! Your friends will be jealous." 07/23/07
If you want the best, this is it! A few extra bucks gets you a stove you can count on wherever/whenever you need it. Metal pump, very stable, easy to control flame, multi-fuel flexibility and it looks great so your friends will be impressed. I have only had mine for a month and have never had it clog, but there is a simple magnetic toggle to clear clogs if you have to use dirty fuel. Beats pulling that other brand apart to clean! Small form factor and durability you can count on.
