This is my second season with the Dragonfly. It is one amazing stove. Whether it's 32F, fierce wind, or raining it primes well, heats quickly. Holds larger pans without fear of toppling off the burner, simmers nicely, sips fuel, packs small. In 5 days, 2 meals a day and I only used 1/2 the gas. It's LOUD!

Points off for the quality of the pump. It has so many exposed parts where sand or grit could become lodged. It doesn't seem as well built as the Coleman pump which lasted me 13 years. I have to protect it from contamination while using the stove on a sandy beach campsite and clean it carefully after use. I can now see why MSR sells replacement pumps for its stoves.
