I removed the heavy pot/pan holder thing on the top and made up a lightweight do-hickey to rest my campware on. Even so, it's probably a few ounces heavier than most stoves, and that football sized fuel bottle is certainly not light. But you can find those fuel bottles anywhere and they seem to last forever. It's a very clean system and burns hot and burns well if there's a little wind. It's just a basic propane burner, hard to beat for efficiency. Plus it's cheap, like $20 at Walmart.

I have a couple of other pack stoves, but this is the one that I usually take because I get tired of always having to hunt for fuel for my other, lightweight, expensive stoves.
