As someone who spends many nights in the backcountry every year, I have become all too familiar with firing up backpacking stoves and eating out of bags. It’s part of the gig if you want a hot meal at night or coffee in the morning.
The truth is, though, not all stoves are created equal. Jetboil has always stood on the upper end of things in terms of efficiency and reliability for me, but their system fell short on bulk. So, when I saw the Stash, the smallest, most lightweight stove they offer, I had to get my hands on it to test it out.
In short: If you are a backpack hunter looking to cut weight from your system but worried about losing efficiency, the Jetboil Stash will fit your needs. Just be mindful not to knock it over while using it.
- Volume: 0.8 L
- Weight: 7.1 oz. (weight excludes fuel stabilizer legs)
- Ignition type: Match or piezo ignitor (bought separately)
Pros
- Lightweight
- Fast boil time at 2.5 min. for 16 oz. of water
- Grooves in stove legs keep pot from sliding off
Cons
- Even with grooves in the stove legs, there is still the potential for this to be knocked over due to the pot not being secured to the stove like other Jetboil models
