Just seen a review of this stove, which seems to be like a jetboil but retails at £35, anyone on here got one ?

I got one of these not long after they came out. Very much like a jetboil just a bit bigger. In fact it feels more well made than a jetboil

I've got one too. Really good for water. Food seems to stick a bit. Don't take the pot off and try and use it as a stove. the heat reflects and melts the plastic bottom part (Now how do I know that?:eek:)

It was working fine, I had it boiling up some water in the shed ready to put some willow bark in, I came back after a few minutes to it slumped to one side. I've heard this happening when using a pot other than the vented one provided but this was with the standard pot. I put it down to the enclosed environment, I the heat built up inside which started it to melt. It's been fine using outside until this happened.

What are you planning to use the stove for? Its a good bit of bit but more like a portable gas-fired kettle really. There are better stoves for actually "cooking" on.

Hi Tony, I want one to keep in the van, so I can have a hot drink/food over the winter. I'm self employed & work outside, & would like to have a quick brew up when its cold.

Its definitely good for that haha. Look into getting a good thermos too, that way the hot water will keep longer and you don't need to get the stove out every time you want a cup. I would say the brukit can make at least 2 mugs of boiling water at a time

Finally got one today, as a prezzy from my good lady, so it will have its first outing on Friday, when I start a big fencing job.
