It´s ok, but you always have to take a bottle of alcohol about 1 litre with you... Another problem is, that cooking more than a small steak or a boiling a tea is very difficult. i am an ultralightweighttrekker and we use to make some own stoves of tins or just a fire on the ground to get our meals hot...

Wouldn't you have to wait a while for the stove to cool down before you could handle it to put it back in your bag? I believe the brand is Victorinox, not the Swiss Army.

However, I do like the fact that this design allows you to open up and possibly clean or empty the internal chamber. A little rock went into mine, and the jingling sound it makes drives me nuts.
