Very nice stove, good design in general and very solid. It is a real torch and I like the broad burner head, very similar to my Coleman Peak II gas stove. You can stortch it up to boil water or turn it down to just a simmer and the broad heat doesn't make a hot spot in the bottom of the pan. There are a few things that reduced it's star count.1) it is pretty heavy for a stove of this type, at 7.5oz it is almost a half pound. This is a result of the traditional super Primus structure, a brass valve and either chromed brass or heavy stainless for the upper part. This will last till your grandkids are old, if propane is still even available then.2) It come in two parts, the burner top and the valve assembly. So they need to be screwed together before attaching to the fuel can and use. A bit of bother and potential to get dirt in the jet. But it makes it fold down small and goes in it's nice mesh bag.3) When you unscrew from the fuel can you need to do so quickly as the fuel will shoot out a bit. The needle that allows the fuel to come on is a bit long so the stove assembly unscrews enough to lose the O-ring seal before the needle has let the fuel turn off. Again, not a big thing but an annoyance and something to be aware of.4) The knob looks to be plastic but perhaps is actually bakalite or some other heat resistant product. There is no warning about not using with a wind screen but if it is plastic and used with a wind screen it could melt the knob. Unknown at this point.UPDATE: After using this a while I've come to really like it for the broad burner and idle capability. HOWEVER... there is a small design flaw that makes the simmer/low burner a bit of a problem. The volume control shaft goes through a bushing that retains the shaft and keeps it from coming out. The shaft/bushing fit is very loose, so making any small adjustment makes the flame height jump around a lot. Just touching the knob wiggles the needle valve and flares the flame a lot so getting a low simmer is very hard to do. Just something to be aware of.  Read Less
