Stove Review: Vargo Jet-ti

A compact, superlight canister stove to call your own.

by: Kristin Hostetter and Jonathan Dorn, BACKPACKER Editor-in-Chief

Call it the new standard in superlight canister stoves, or call it one of the best burner values around. Most importantly, call it yours-this 2.7-ounce titanium burner cooked without a hiccup during 6 months of nearly constant use, and it took top honors in durability testing against other ultralights (Gear Lab, 6/05). High points: an excellent simmer, solid construction, and a wide enough flame for larger two-person pots. It also folds small enough to fit into every mug we own.

Price: $65
