Perfect For Me

Nice and packable. I bought it to use in the Duck Blind works well in all weather!

I Haven’t Had A Chance

I haven’t had a chance to use it yet, but I can’t wait.

It Works Great But The

It works great but the picture is misleading. I wish I knew the stove didn’t come with fuel.

Ok But Eventually Wears Out

I had my stove for at least 5 years maybe more, I don't really remember how long. The gas knob turns in much farther than it used to and the threads on the bottom for the bottle finally got so sloppy that they are pretty much wore out. The anodize is gone from the threads and bottles tend to cross thread if not careful. I like the stove, it is compact and works well, but wish it was a little more durable. Maybe made out of better materials or even had a hard anodized aluminum.

Great Stove

Can’t go wrong with this stove. Used it a ton. All good, never a problem yet.

Great Tool

Simple, Compact, Effective. Three words that describe this stove. I have used this stove for several years on a daily basis. There is something satisfying about a fresh cup of coffee or hot tea after a hard days work or for calibration. Iv even roasted the occasional dove breast over the flame when the occasion has risen. This stove stays in the truck, back pack, boat, or blind where ever I go.

Great Backpacking Stove.

Works great and is really light. Used it a ton while guiding in utah.

Brilliant Otherwise

My only suggestion is give an option for Legs on a pot ring. Maybe a simple ring with legs, aluminium or a triangle the same height as the pot grips to keep from dumping my coffee water, omlet pan or soup.

Just Buy It

Unless you enjoy waiting for a campfire to heat up your coffee water, buy the pocket rocket 2

Kalalau

I used mine for 5 days and 5 nights in the Napali Coast. Solo hiker. Just used to boil water for freeze dried food. Worked great for my needs.

Very Light And Doesn’t Take

Very light and doesn’t take up storage room. I use it on most of my adventures backpacking, camp, or hiking to boil water and make some hot chocolate, coffee or food.

Enjoying My Pocket Rocket

It’s a pocket rocket and works great so far have used only 4 times out in the back country so I am hopeful it keeps going like it has 👍🏽👍🏽 for pocket rocket 2

Best Piece Of Equipment You Can Get!

I’ve used this beauty for 3x 4- night trips now and I have to say, I can’t leave home without it. It works great! Super portable, I store it in my 450ml SP Ti cup with a Bic lighter and a cutout piece of Scotch pad. Easy to set up and cools quick after use. I normally don’t write reviews but this thing merits one.

Burner

We use this burner on a daily basis. We actually make European coffee using this burner. It doesn’t take up much space on the counter and it is convenient to use. At times we have used it during a power outage as well. We have cooked beans, pasta and boiled eggs. For the ease of the product I recommend it highly!

Worked Great Until It Didn’t

I’ve had mine a few years, bought in 2021. The self igniter was great and always worked first try until last week. It worked one morning but not the next. It’s not that old so I was sad to have it stop working. I can still use it with a match/external lighter, but I bought it specially for the convenience of self-igniting.
