Though I have an excellent MSR Pocket Rocket stove that uses isobutane (which can be a royal pain to find at times), this little cat stove is what goes with me most any more. Cheap, light as a feather, denatured alcohol or Heat easy to find, and can get 2 cups of water boiling in 4 minutes or less. Did I mention cheap and light?
