I have one and it served the role of home stove back-up reliably for many years. We also took it on extended car trips; it isn't so big that I can't find a place for it. Not really a back-pack stove. Reliable, just like cooking on a regular gas stove.

Now that we have a gas stove at home, it doesn't get as much use. But for any type of situation where the weight and size is not a problem, it would be my first choice.

For a back-pack stove, I have an ancient Svea 123 that I have also found totally reliable.
