My father, who backpacks with me, DEMANDED the coffee press that goes with the WindBurner stove.

I really can't complain about it at all.Some information for people looking to buy this, the pot is not machine washable. MSR doesn't mention this anywhere on their product page, and it took me a while to find it on their site, but you should wash this by hand. Also, don't use the 16oz MSR IsoPro Fuel, like I am in the picture. MSR says not to do this for stability reasons, and while I was able to use it with a 16oz canister, I have to agree that you should stick to 8oz or smaller.I'm extremely satisfied with my MSR WindBurner. It always gets the job done, regardless of conditions, and it's very well designed. I really like the accessories that can go with it, and I really think it is the best stove out there.

I originally bought the MSR over the jetboil because I liked the reputation of the company, they seem very transparent in their manufacturing, materials sourcing, and commitment to their employees. I figured like everything these days it would last a year or so and when it died I would try a jetboil in order to make a good comparison. Now it’s 3.5 years later and after beating the heck out of the thing and using it hundreds of times, it’s still working perfectly and just won’t die. No material defects or dysfunctions at all. Boils water super fast. I just can’t complain about anything.

Excellent for backpacking!

First, I mistakenly assumed that I'd be able to light it with the MSR Piezo igniter that I used for my last stove. After about 5 minutes of fiddling with the gas and trying to light it from different angles, I accepted that they won't work with the Windburner. Some later research verified that this is indeed the case. This isn't a major issue, since a well stocked backpack ought to have a lighter, matches, or a strike igniter (or all three) anyway. I prefer the strike igniter to light it.Second, the measuring cup that fits over the bottom of the system when it's packed down has a bit of an awkward fit. I haven't had any issues with it falling off, but rather with it kind of getting jammed too far up over the rest of the unit. It can get pinched behind the upper potholder/shroud and be a bit of a pain to get off. This isn't a big problem, it just occasionally takes a bit of a frustrating 30 seconds or so to twist it just right to get it loose.I'll soon be adding the WindBurner Combo System with the skillet and the larger sauce pot to my pack, as well as the coffee press, now that I've spent some time with the base stove system.

Excellent product with major design flaws
2 November 2020

I really enjoyed the windburner right off the bat; it's easy, it's fast, and it's efficient. I keep the 1.0L stove/kit in my kayaking load out most of the time. Occasionally, I bring it camping if I'm going to be making coffee.... I need a nice cup of joe to start my routine, regardless of where I'm at. I decided to pick up one of these stoves because it was compact and had pretty good reviews. LITTLE DID I KNOW, this stove would let me down in a big way. I popped it out one morning to make my coffee and found that when I unscrewed the canister the night before, the brass insert that the canister screws into WAS GONE. I assume it came out the night before when I boiled water for dinner. I had no way to screw a canister of butane into the stove itself, rendering it ... MoreI really enjoyed the windburner right off the bat; it's easy, it's fast, and it's efficient.

I need a nice cup of joe to start my routine, regardless of where I'm at. I decided to pick up one of these stoves because it was compact and had pretty good reviews. LITTLE DID I KNOW, this stove would let me down in a big way. I popped it out one morning to make my coffee and found that when I unscrewed the canister the night before, the brass insert that the canister screws into WAS GONE. I assume it came out the night before when I boiled water for dinner. I had no way to screw a canister of butane into the stove itself, rendering it useless and useless it remained for the coming year or two. I contacted customer support and they wanted me to send in the whole unit to determine if it was a manufacturer defect or user error. Being used to the corporate run around that we've all been subjected to in one form or another, I knew they were going to either tell me sorry and to buy a new one, or they would give me store credit. ALL I NEEDED was the brass insert that threads into the bottom of the stove. So I gave up on customer support and set out on a mission to solve the problem the old fashioned way: by fixing it myself. Every few weeks I would browse the internet looking for the actual insert itself or a product that was cheap and was equipped with the part I needed. I spent over a year looking at the disused stove sitting there taunting me. I eventually found a canister transfer valve that consolidates partial canisters that looked like it had the part that I so desperately needed. Sure enough, I was right. I had to super glue a canister into one side of the valve, let the glue set, then use pliers to unscrew the brass fitting from the valve. Then I soaked the top of the EMPTY canister in acetone for a few hours to loosen up the glue. After that, I put some super glue on the fine threads of outside of the brass fitting and screwed it into the stove. Once that glue set, I unscrewed the canister from the stove and I began having visions of hot coffee pouring from every coffee pot ever made by man. Long story short, you or someone with you better have a back up plan of you need boiling water on your camping trip and have money to buy a new stove or have the patience to deal with canned responses to fix your problems. All of the good companies I know have and would send you the parts your need to fix their poor designs ESPECIALLY OF THE PARTS ARE CHEAP. CRKT, for example, has sent me parts on multiple occasions even when the reason for the malfunction was clearly my fault. HEY MSR! Just a dab of cyanoacrylate glue or some locktite on the fine threads of the brass insert will save any future customers from having my issue. OR have a few parts on hand to send to your customers who may be loyal to your brand. I would give this a lower star value if it didn't work as well as it does when it does work. It only made it on 4 or 5 kayaking trips and one camping trip. I usually go kayaking every weekend and need to cook food while I'm out there. So for the price, it should have made it a year. It works now and I'll continue to use it, but I won't be buying any MSR products before seeing them in person and up close. KTHNX

Generally very good
28 July 2021

As youd expect from MSR the design and quality are generally excellent. This is ideal for a solo trek where mostly you are boiling water. It performs much better in high winds than a Jetboil (which is otherwise probably a better bet). I have two reservations: 1) it can be hard to light in exactly the conditions that this is designed for - high wind. Once the pot is on its excellent, but getting to that point can be tricky. Sometimes you have to do so much windbreak to light it that you feel the wind proof nature of its operation is beside the point. 2) It would be nice if there were a little more space in the packed up pot to fit in a lighter or matches. You can get a striker in, but nothing bigger. But overall Im very pleased with it.

Great so far!
6 September 2022

This thing works great!! I came from using jetboils and to be honest there isn't a huge gap between them.I think it was worthwhile to go to MSR for the reputation and the efficiency. This stove sips fuel, on a week long bikepacking trip (6 mornings of boils for coffee and a couple ramen boils) I only went through a little more than half of an 8oz bottle of fuel.It boils a little faster than a jetboil but I don't think that's a huge deal seeing as we are speaking of seconds saved.Hopefully the quality stands up and it lasts awhile

I get it now; a Jetboil Flash Comparison
21 November 2022

Let me start off by saying I loved my Jetboil. It was my first true hiking stove and it served me quite well. But my love was to be stolen by another. The MSR WindBurner, which is basically the same thing as a Jetboil Flash. Right? Well, not so fast. The differences are nuanced, and at times could be easily overlooked, however after using this as my primary stove while letting a friend borrow my JetBoil, I can safely say I will be using this as my new main stove.Some of the important differences that make this a superior product are as follows.One: The Cup at the bottom that protects the burner portion is larger and a much heavier grade of plastic compared to the Jetboil.

It was my first true hiking stove and it served me quite well. But my love was to be stolen by another. The MSR WindBurner, which is basically the same thing as a Jetboil Flash. Right? Well, not so fast. The differences are nuanced, and at times could be easily overlooked, however after using this as my primary stove while letting a friend borrow my JetBoil, I can safely say I will be using this as my new main stove.Some of the important differences that make this a superior product are as follows.One: The Cup at the bottom that protects the burner portion is larger and a much heavier grade of plastic compared to the Jetboil. It holds more fluid, protects your hands better when pouring hot water, and has multiple measuring lines. The lid also fits very well onto this base cup and pours a very laminar flow stream so you don't make a mess. It's nice to have this integrated cup that feels like a solid cup, not just a protective cap.Two: Looking at the burner, there is a drastic difference in total flame area compared to the Jetboil Flash. At first glance you would think that this would use drastically more fuel however the time to heat water rates are very similar if not slightly faster with the WindBurner with similar fuel use. Additionally, this produces a better heat source of you were to use a pan on top of the burner. While the flame will never be as good as a stove designed to work with larger pans, the WindBurner does an excellent job of increasing the heating area, especially compared to a JetBoil allowing you to have more options on the trail with one stove.Three: The construction of the base and the overall wind protection is very good. This product seems a little more robust and for sure is more wind resistant compared to a JetBoil. Now, that being said I have never had the flame blown out on my JetBoil, even in heavy winds high in alpine terrain, but I have seen it get pushed around and been worried. The WindBurner conceals the flame much more and I have no worry when using it in high winds.Four: This one is simple but appreciated. The JetBoil Flash stove has fewer holes to lock the top mug onto the burner, resulting in the user spending a lot of time twisting and attempting to find the correct alignment of dimples to lock the mug and burner together. The MSR WindBurner has holes all the way around the bottom resulting in the base always being a short turn away from being locked in. This is great as you know it's locked in right away and mostly is a one handed operation vs. two with the JetBoil. This allows you to feel more confident when handling boiling water or having an open flame when tipping the stove over is not an option. A simple but appreciated detail.Now nothing is perfect, and some complaints that I have against the WindBurner are the insulation on the aluminum mug, the handle, and the bottom cup sticking. The insulation on the mug is much less and there are a few more burn points for your hands, especially when compared to a JetBoil. Ive never worried about burning my hands on my JetBoil, but I am consciously careful when using and handling the WindBurner. Additionally the handle for the WindBurner is just ok in my opinion. The rigid handle makes it slightly more awkward to hold and pour. Because of the lack of insulation on the mug you end up using the handle more to distance yourself from the mug itself. Lastly the bottom cup can get stuck on the mug if stuffed in a bag and compressed too much. It takes a silly amount of force to pop it off but it eventually does.I feel that the MSR WindBurner is an excellent product and sneaks past the JetBoil Flash in a few key areas making it a better product. The incremental increase in cost for this product really pays off for better construction and features.

One BIG fault
3 April 2023

I have used this stove a good bit. It works great…until you can’t get the cup off the bottom. It left me without cooking ability on my latest trip. I couldn’t get the cup off the bottom so it’s non functional if you can’t do that. I tried everything at my disposable. It that cup gets underneath the cozy, there is some sort of vice grip that it does to the cup. I tried prying and hitting it against things. Nothing. I didn’t even push the cup on there hard the last time I used it. I’ll be looking for a more reliable stove. Nothing like getting stranded on trail. As long as the cup comes off, it’s great. Just a warning.

Take a spare stove..
18 July 2022

Stove was excellent for about 20 boils, then tripped out and would not light. Obscure entry in instructions (when back at home) showed how to re-set. Another 20 boils and the clear pot at the bottom of the stove stuck fast. After that it needed to be wrestled off with a pen knife.. Another 10 boils later (in the Scottish wilderness) the stove tripped-out again. This time it would not re-set. So no stove in the middle of nowhere with just freeze-dried meals (which I could not heat up so were inedible) and energy bars. These two design flaws are serious and MSR needs to attend to them. To their credit, having sent it back to MSR, they have confirmed the manufacturing error on the failure to ignite. They have not supplied a replacement and the retailer, while offering ... MoreStove was excellent for about 20 boils, then tripped out and would not light.

They have not supplied a replacement and the retailer, while offering a refund, does not stock the stove any more and will not replace. And prices have gone up significantly and to replace it will leave me well out of pocket. So, if you have a WindBurner, beware and do take a spare stove (dare I say it, a (nice and simple) Pocket Rocket?). It could be the difference between hot food and no hot food.

Upgraded from a Jetboil
15 February 2023

I had a jetboil for a very short period until the coozie insulation just fell apart. Upgraded to this and it’s a much more solid build. The insulation is stronger, feels a little looser after a few hikes now but not bad and maybe a little PTSD from the JB.The heat is quick and will easily burn food. The downside is it’s not super adjustable, it’s either going hard or the flame burns out. I love it for boiling and coffee, but not so much cooking actual food in.It’s also not non stick.Overall I’m super happy with it and prefer it over a pocket rocket or similar but that’s mainly because I like the French press and love having good coffee on a hike.
