The Best!

I love this for small backpacking trips! Super lightweight and easy to pack and carry I feel like it works super well with the bullet comes with although bigger pans and definitely would not work on this small cookout. I feel like this item is better for beginners! It’s cheapest option without getting too crazy on technical stuff.

Best Backpacker Cooking System

I use my Jetboil for all-things camp cooking. It's lightweight, packs into itself, boils water and warms food incredibly quickly and doesn't guzzle fuel. Works pretty well in the wind, but I find creating a shield helps in extreme conditions. It's my go-to cooking option, even over a stove. Would highly recommend!

Efficient & Fast Stove

The Flash is one of the most efficient stoves I’ve used for quickly boiling water. Setup is straightforward, and the integrated pot, lid, and stabilizer make it easy to use without extra pieces rattling around in your pack. It reliably brings water to a boil in just a couple of minutes, which is great for coffee, freeze-dried meals, or melting snow. You give up some flexibility compared to a traditional stove—simmering and real cooking aren’t its strengths—but for speed, convenience, and packability, it’s hard to beat. Wish it was ultralight, but it makes up for the weight in ease of use.

flash cooking system from jetboil is perfect for backpacking. cooks water SO fast and very small profile. the auto lighting function doesn't work after a while and that seems to be the norm. nevertheles, great product and perfect for backpacking.

My Go-to Stove For Light And Compact Trips

I have had my JetBoil for about 12 years now and it never lets me down. Lightning fast water boil times so it uses a fraction of the fuel I was using with my other stove. It has a great jell window that changes color when the water gets hot though you can hear a change in sound right before and as the water gets to a boil. A must have if you want coffee and to boil water for re-hydrated meals. I've had good luck cooling dinners in this pot but you have to watch the heat as "simmer" is more like turning the stove on and off for items like dried tortellini and such. Igniter has never given me an issue and the coffee press attachment is a nice add to reduce mess and have real coffee vs instant. Highly recommended. Note, for extreme winter trips I do use a white gas stove b/c the isobutane fuel doesn't burn as well when it gets a bit below freezing.
