Good quality, although there are some minor flaws, like uneven legs. The stove is not as versatile as a gas one – it works slower, leaves soot residue (when using Flambit bioethanol), and requires more precise adjustment. The plus is there's no risk of depressurization or explosion of the canister or burner, it doesn't need special winter fuel, and the fuel itself is clearly cheaper and available even in small village stores, which can't be said about EN417 canisters.

A good set for one person or two minimalists. It seems that the pot's capacity is smaller than declared – my measuring utensils showed a maximum of 930-950 ml. You can easily boil around 800-850 ml of water. When cooking thicker meals, you have to be careful to avoid burning. It's a shame that the stove's base doesn't protect the flame from the wind. The lid works great as a small pot, mess tin, or frying pan. The burner works perfectly – I used denatured alcohol. It's a good compromise between weight and functionality. It could use better wind protection and a slightly thicker pot bottom, but despite that, the pot fulfills its role and allows you to prepare a hot meal.

No major complaints, just be careful when setting the flame – it's best to slightly shield the stove, because when the fuel heats up, it's easy to burn the pot.
-
Great and complete set. I tested it and boiling 750 ml takes 13 minutes. Stainless steel makes it lighter, but more solid than aluminum. I definitely recommend it.
-
Still unused, but the workmanship appears very solid and inspires confidence.
-
Set is carefully made and very roomy. I am very satisfied with the purchase.
-
Decent and aesthetically pleasing set. The lid with handles is a big advantage. The whole set is well designed – it's easy to nest the elements inside each other, like matryoshka dolls. It's lightweight and thoughtfully practical.
