Winter favorite
I use the whisperlite in winter for its reliability. Perfect for melting snow with a 2L pot. In summer and fall I prefer the ease of use of a canister stove with the pocket rocket.

Bacon on the beach!
Great product. Tried and true design. Reliable and easy to operate and maintain. Bacon on the beach for breakfast. Does it get any better?

A Must for Winter Camping
After a January camping trip in NH, where temps dropped to 5 deg. F, and I couldn't get my MSR Pocketrocket to work, I purchased this lifesaver. Used it in February, again in NH, and will forever more carry my WhisperLite in the deep winter.

No blue flame w propane - normal?
Not getting a blue flame only totally transparent flame w propane. Is this normal with the Whisperlite?

Tried and True performance.
Tried and true, it's obvious why the whisperlite remains the top expedition stove. Although it's quite different than the canister stoves, it was very easy to learn and get used to. Boiled a liter of water relatively quickly below freezing temps. Very excited to continue using the stove throughout the winter. I definitely recommend for anyone who enjoys winter fun like I do.

Buy it. You need it
I have used this stove above 12,000 feet and on boats all over. I have travelled to other countries with it. Every place and every time it’s been reliable and works great.

Great stove , but needs simmer capability.
Great little stove, light weight, lights easily. The only negative is the lack of ability to simmer, and every time you light it the underside is covered with black messy soot.

So confused
I took a group of three to do a section on the AT in NC, and as always packed my whisperlite stove. First meal prep and with new white gas and the stove did not know if it was to use the burner or primer bulb. This stove has always worked with the exception of this trip. I ended up using a penny stove I carry in my cook kit. Any solutions?

Great Stove! But...
This is a great light stove for anyone looking to get a durable backpacking stove. It can be a little hard to prime if you are not used to a Whisperlite. If you use MSR's Superfuel there is still a bunch of Soot when priming. The stove burns hot... Super hot...... Don't expect to simmer and do amazing meals unless you are used to this stove.
