What we liked
- + Very low price for a trusted Swedish stove brand
- + Wide burner head spreads flame for more even heat in a pot
- + Compact size fits in a mug or small camp kitchen box
Trade-offs
- - No piezo igniter, so a lighter or matches are needed
- - Canister-top stove is tippy with larger car camping cookware
