I had a brief love-affair with these things. I love the form-factor; stable, compact, lightweight.
BUT, they run on butane. Hopeless in the cold and/or when the cylinder gets less than half full. I've had a couple of miserable camps waiting for ever for a pathetic flame to boil the kettle for a brew (and, yes, that's after having kept the cylinder in the tent with me). Have nw given up on this type of stove.

I loved them when i was doing motorcycle camping, now im on a pushbike, i prefer my meths stove, not so much the weight, as the space it takes up.
