WhisperLite International Multi-Fuel Stove

Misleading

Familiarity:

I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

The photo had/has the fuel bottle in it. Arrived as I was leaving on my trip so I couldn’t return it. Had to get a new bottle as swell.

MSR Whisper Lite International Review

Great piece of gear! I can fit my stove, pump, repair kit, heat shield, matches and coffee mug (mug has coffee/whitener & sponge in it) in my pot set. Along with being compact, this stove is easy to light, quiet and well built.

Still going strong

Well, I’m on year 29 with mine Yikes! Once I ask a cab driver in Mexico on a volcano climbing trip to stop at a gas station so we could get fuel That was 1995 I just used it for three days this week on the lakeshore trail into stehekin WA That’s 2024 Still works great!

Solid - Buy it!

This is an outstanding liquid fuel stove for year-round use. I use it primarily in winter and it rarely lets me down. Lightweight, robust, reliable, and simple to light are important features that matter to me. Thus far, I have only used it with white gas and cannot comment on its use with other fuels. The pump is easy to maintain as well. Since I use it in winter, I carry the Standard and Arctic pump on all remote trips. Depending on the temperature, I have to switch them regularly so it would be preferrable if one pump worked well in all temperatures.

MSR WhisperLite International Stove!

I have used my the WhisperLite International for something like 20 years! From bicycle 🚴 camping 🏕 trips to Florida hurricanes 🌀 I used it for about three weeks straight when hurricane Charlie took out the power. About the only thing I have done to the stove is clean it maybe 🤔 every year or so and I think 🤔 the only problem I have had was I had to replace one little O-ring! That reminds me I have to replace the O-ring that I removed from the little service kit. I recommend that service kit I replaced that O-ring at night during a hurricane 🌀 power outage and all those O-Rings are special and your not going to find one when you roll into a campground at 02:00 🕑 AM in the rain 🌧 on your bicycle 🚴 and all you want to do is get something to eat and go to sleep 🏕 But if the stove needs an O-ring it is going to be cold Mountain House Chicken 🐔 Teriyaki 🤢 and a cold breakfast 🍳 So you need to get the service kit at least for peace of mind!

MSR WhisperLite International Stove

This stove is solid! I bought it to replace my 30 year old WhisperLite stove. No more empty fuel canisters to try and recycle and the cost of fuel is much lower. Yes my original WhisperLite stove still operates fine, just went with a more modern design. I cold weather camp and you can’t beat a white gas stove in the cold.

My favorite!

This is my favorite stove. I use in Africa every year to cook and sterile medical instruments. These stoves are the only stove that can be completly disassembled and cleaned in the field with min effort.

Good

It packs up well, has done well up a few mountains so far. Should have bought the 32oz canister instead of the twenty. Has been reliable so far!

part of a great kit

great stove. I can count on coffee and a hot dinner every day of the week.

Worked perfectly out of the

Worked perfectly out of the box, everything I expected it to be.
