Msr Windburner Stove Review

My review tech specs and recommendations for use.

Msr windburner stove review.

The convenience and durability of the windburner are tough to beat and give it a spot among our list of the best backpacking stoves. Over half of the small and integrated canister stoves in our review sport a piezo though they didn t all work with the same reliability in our tests. Unfortunately the windburner does not excel in this category. Over the last few months our editor used it to cook all his camp favorites from sunrise pancakes to late night pasta.

Msr windburner personal stove system. Msr has added a piezo to the pocketrocket line on the deluxe. The duo stove system with a 1 8 liter pot is a minimalist set designed for two while the group stove system with a 2 5 liter saucepot is targeted towards two to four campers. We are disappointed that msr could not make this product lighter than the reactor it seems like there is a lot of unnecessary metal as well as plastic parts that could be trimmed.

We love its exceptional performance in windy weather its speedy boil times and great fuel efficiency. Unlike conventional backpacking stoves radiant burners don t have flames which makes them impervious to windy weather so that they burn hotter and longer on the same amount of canister fuel. The msr windburner is a canister stove system built around the wind proof and super fuel efficient radiant burner technology that msr originally developed for its snow melting powerhouse reactor stove. The msr windburner is the latest and by far one of the more advanced lightweight stoves that the team at mountain safety research has yet developed.

The gas canister is a separate item and 110g and 227g canisters can fit inside the windburner. Using similar technology as the msr reactor it also features a radiant burner and an enclosed windproof design so that it performs in harsh weather conditions. Easy to assemble and disassemble the msr windburner personal stove is a great choice for solo backpacking. The msr windburner is an exceptional personal stove system made by mountain safety research.

It has the heaviest trail weight in our review at 15 ounces even heavier than the liquid fuel stoves. The msr windburner stove system is among the highest quality and best performing integrated canister stove systems on the market. The windburner combo is the latest stove system in the growing msr lineup. Our testers would love to see the reactor and windburner also sprout them.
