Review: Great all purpose stove! Not ultralight though. - Great all around compact stove. Made in USA. MSR/Cascade Designs is a reputable company. I've dealt with them on Thermarest stuff and they've been very honorable. Replacement parts should be available for a long time too. This stove appears to be expedition worthy. It comes with a tool for servicing the whole thing in the field. Wherever you are in the world you should be able to find something that it will burn. It runs on gasoline, white gas, kerosene, or butane canisters. It feels very solid. I've only used it on one 3 day backpacking trip so far, and this is my experience... I bought it mainly to use butane canisters (that's all I tried so far) and backpack with. It boils water quickly, and is able to simmer at a very low flame. The flame control is very good. The hose coming off of it is a little too stiff though and can be a little annoying. I would prefer that the stove not move the bottle around and vice versa. It fits nicely in the bag along with a large butane can. The weight was fine but not ultralight. The heat shield is just a folded up piece of round aluminum which I did not use. I did not bring or use any of the liquid fuel accessory parts. I think that the main downside of backpacking with this is the weight. It is light for what it does, and it does it very well. But, if all you want to do is boil water quick and carry a super light pack, there are options at about half the weight. I've weighed this and all of it's parts separately so you can figure out how much it would weigh in any configuration. All weights are in pounds done on a certified Hobart digital deli scale. 0.59 = stove alone with the canister valve attached. 0.19 = gas/kerosene pump 0.04 = service kit. (tool and all orifices and extra O-rings) 0.03 = plastic butane can holder 0.07 = bag (stuff sack) 0.13 = wind screen 0.04 = ground heat reflector My setup with fuel weighed in at 1.60 lbs. (0.74 for stove and 0.86 for large butane canister) Yes I would buy it again. I may get something different for a windscreen though and may buy a dedicated ultralight stove for some backpacking trips.
Review: Rugged, Versatile, and Easy to Clean - This is probably the best camp stove I have ever owned. I have had one for close to 2 years. Just bought this replacement after mine got stolen. "They were jealous of my stove prowess" Now I will be completely honest I normally use a small caster stove "Primus Express W/ Piezo" It is used when I’m backpacking solo or with just my wife. Now when Motorcycle, or group camping I always defer to the MSR Whisper Lite Universal Stove. Now here is what I have to say about the MSR Whisper Lite Universal Stove. First of all the stove has 3 legs that fold up to save space. They are very strong and can support a significant amount of weight. I’ve had a 3 liter pot of water and it supported it no problem. Second is the fuel. This stove can burn just about any fuel. I have personally used canister Fuel, Gasoline, kerosene, White Gas (gas condensate from gas wells), Primus Super Fuel, and Coleman Camp Fuel. I have used Alcohol but it pits the container and degrades the seals on the pump. Now I have met people who have used jet fuel in there stove. Long and short if its liquid fuel this stove can burn it. “Just not diesel”. Third is the assembly of the stove. It is incredible simple to assemble, disassemble and clean. I will say this, the MSR Whisper Lite Universal Stove is not for a solo backpacker or someone who likes to bring dehydrated meals along with no plan to deviate. It’s just big. Now if you are going with a group or where you have a means of transport aka. Motorcycle or in your car it’s a must have.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great all purpose stove! Not ultralight though.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A decent little versatile stove
*by A***Y on August 22, 2025*

A nice backpacking stove that can be configured to burn several different fuels. I think I might try kerosene on our first hike.
