Pros & Cons
Pros
Jetboil boils water almost instantly and is a lifesaver when backpacking. It heats up 1/2 liter of water in about 2 minutes. Add it to a dehydrated meal in its ziploc, and spend the next 10 - 15 minutes setting up camp while my dinner cooks.

Sure its a little heavier than a 12oz aluminum can alcohol stove but its way more efficient can carry less fuel and faster coff... Read More
Everything is self contained and the handle loop makes it perfect to hang with a carbiner when not in use
My buddy and i were camping and he had an older jetboil model
I had purchased another jetboil unit but returned it for the flash because of the large liquid capacity and the built in igniter
