New cook stove on the market

[tony]

Listened to Born Primative/A Snyders podcasts while driving to work

Had these guys on. Designed a whole new backcountry stove.
Pot is pretty slick.
Simmer control, 8.5-inch folding spork, removable wind screen
All packs into the pot.
Supposed $250.00 street price. This went along with Arron leading the argument that jetboil is anti-hunting, MSR is natural.
These guys are pro 2A and hunting.

$250 seriously? That thing looks cool but a $50 pocket rocket is all you need for any conditions. Been using that thing for 10 years from April to December.

But I guess those who spend $500 on a knife will buy this.

Yeah, that price is a bit of a turn off.

Stupid when you can buy this complete setup for $55:

Yeah, Fire maple is my go-to as well.
Folding spork has been done.
I do like the pot design.

No idea where it's made, overseas is my assumption.

I agree with you all. Looks great but the price tag is just too much. I’ll stick with my Mini Mo, that I was able to buy for $75, with 8 fuel canisters! But thanks for sharing!

Unless this is USA made, it ain't gonna make it. And I dont see USA plastered all over the launch page, so I'd bet not. $250 is insane for an unproven outdoor brand using oriental manufacturing. The stove space is pretty full.

The positive: I do like the idea of the silicone surround on the lid. Thats a great idea if they solved the issue of keeping the silicone attached during constant thermal cycling.

$250 price tag has failure written all over it

 

[CaseyRyback]

$250?? Jeez. I’ve seen that advertised. I do like the nesting features but that’s steep. I’ll keep my regulated firemaple stove and cook pot.

I’m waiting on the collab to buy one…

I've been a stove pioneer, slut, beta tester for 20 plus years. If someone can make the MSR windburner a bit lighter, add an igniter and split the pot in half vertically... you'll have the ultimate unit. I found a spork the fits in the lid hole and beside the stove yet still can reach the bottom and added a small ferro rod.

The biggest problem I've had was the wind kills everything and zaps fuel.

The $250 jobby doesn't look like a simple windscreen....but not something that is going to work in a 15mph wind.

That's a nice-looking kit. I'd like to see the specs on the burner. Going to be a hard sell when a $50 dollar regulated burner produces the same outcome at a 1/5 of the price. I do like the design, tho.
