Intro to the MSR PocketRocket 2
I love simple backpacking stoves. When I was a kid we toted around these ridiculous, many-pieced monstrosities that broke every other time we tried to cook something. So the first time I tried a canister stove (the original PocketRocket) was almost a religious experience. That stove quickly became the most popular canister stove on the market, and held that position for years. The MSR PocketRocket 2 is everything its older brother was and more.
This is one killer stove. It’s not only impressively small and light - 2.6 ounces, which is ultralight as far as I’m concerned- it’s easy to use (didn’t glance at the directions once) and boils water so fast that you better have your food ready to go the moment you light it. MSR is a highly respected gear manufacturer and the stove is reasonably priced for the quality you get.
