I have the Reactor 1.7L stove with the metal pot, not the Windburner, but the same catalytic-burner technology. It was my first stove purchase, and I still love it 6 years later. It's not the smallest, but it is my best performing and most reliable stove. Regarding the Windburner, I would buy a Windburner when I want a compact canister stove. The fuel efficiency and performance optimization of the catalytic burner speaks for itself and is, IMO, the best system on the market. I would not spend my money on a non-catalytic stove, or a stove without optimization in heat transfer, or a stove without a pressure regulator. All 3 optimizations did not have to be put together in one stove, which is evident in all the myriad of other stoves on the market, but they were. And, when I was looking for a stove, only the Reactor line of stoves had everything I was looking for. But, it's different. Some people may not like it. I get that. Happy hiking to all.
Looks like a great stove! Another con I feel with that type of new burner system, is that it should have come with a pizo starter. Looks a little tricky to light. A great system!
I been using my original windboiler which is now windburner for a few years now. I used jetboil and many others similar types but I only use my windburner when On trips I only boil water for drinking or meals. Love it!! Msr makes excellent products. My old whisperlite and dragonfly are both still going strong. Great video. I love the hanging kit for the windburner
They are great units. I don’t own one but many experienced friends do. I stop using canister stoves when the temps drop below 5°C, and bust out the whisperlite international. It has never failed me even at -30°C
So I managed to stumble by your channel just searching for MSR cook systems. I’m amazed at how well researched and informative your video is! I immediately subscribed and binged on your videos! I normally wouldn’t comment but I was blown away!!! Thank you for your intense research and dedication to outdoor gear!
Looks like a lot of companies are now making a jet boil style system. Would be interesting to see a comparison but also see how much fuel is saved using a system like this
campgeek has done several comparisons
You save about 50% fuel compared to a normal stove with just an open flame.
This Is the best system in my mind, proven in the California desert, Sierra and a very windy beach on Catalina. The heat fins, like the jet boil, is a good reason to use their pots. I’m surprised you didn’t mention their French Press accessory. I would get their remote stove if starting all over.
A shame about the lack of canniest stand and piezo ignition. I do wonder why we seem to be obsessed for our water boiled faster than a household kettle when we’re out in the wild. I do have one of these types of stoves for a day hike for a brew but to be fair I might as well carry a flask other than it being less fun. I’ve been happy with the 8 minute boil time on my trangia for 25 years and most probably will be for the next 25.
I like how there is less plastic around the burner unlike jet boil
Have you tried a regular skillet on the Windburner on top of your grill? I wonder if there would be too much heat feedback and it would trigger the overheating protection shut off feature. I saw a video where someone took a Jetboil pot adapter and cut out the inner part of it so that its hole was exactly or almost exactly the size of the Windburner's radiant heater and it seemed to work well.
Something I appreciate about the JetBoil MiniMo is it’s ability to maintain a low simmer for things beyond just boiling water. I’m more interesting in seeing how the MSR performs in those areas in comparison to the MiniMo
The Wind Burner will simmer but no where near the MiniMo. For guaranteed performance in windy conditions the Wind burner beats them all hands down.
Good video Doc. I like the versatility.
Looking forward to the comparison video!
You nailed it: brilliant in windy conditions. Those who cry too expensive should understand that this is a top quality system, too, well designed and durable: you will have hot food or purified water in conditions where other stoves fail. I have the Duo. The burner is remote canister, so all the WindBurner advantages in a more stable, lower stove burner. I’ve used it in the 20s with no issues. I also have the pan. It is a quality piece of kit with a really nice ceramic nonstick coating. This is a niche product, but it is unsurpassed in that niche in my opinion.
Wait till you see the video comparing it to the Jetboil where I put them both against wind...#worththemoney
The MSR wind boiler(burner) is the best system. I have it. I recommend this. But not for very cold weather. -5C ° gas freezes. And almost does not heat the system. Need winter gas.
Some Amazon reviews say that the stove just quit working. Didn't you mention an overheat switch that has to be reset manually? I wonder if that's the problem in some cases that owners just don't know about.
As you love to do stove videos, I'd like to see some data on the benefits of the preasure regulator. I have one from Firemaple and I'd like to see how that compares. Thanks for all you work on these vids.
I think comparing pressure regulators is a great idea! I'd like to see that video too.
Too expensive to boil water in my opinion. Thanks for the review!
Its nice in areas where its windy or gets cold though, I have used mine at 25f just fine and I hear that it can be used at slightly cooler temps as well. Also uses very little fuel.
One time purchase amortized over years or even decades of ownership. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Thank you for the demonstration. I really appreciate it👍🏻
Fantastic video!! Really enjoy your content!! This convinced me to get this stove.
Thanks for the review!
Nice stove but no ignitor?
If you run out of fuel can you set the pot against/in the coals to boil your water without damaging it permanently?
The soot from the wood fire will build up on/in the fins of the bottom of the pot over time and that will effect the heat transfer from when using the burner that came with it. I got this information from an employee that worked at REI and he said he learned from experience so take it for what its worth.

I prefer the windburner myself, it's worth it to have that extra protection from the wind
Great! Thank you!
Awesome, Brother!
Where did you get your metal net for your workaround for cooking?
that bushwhacker grill is great. definitely going to pick up one of those.
jetboil or MSR Windburner?
Heavy cream. Paleo Hiker. Paleo eater too?
Exact same one at local Walmart 64.99
What metal is the pot made out of?
Like 293 apoyo mutuo, tiene un canal muy educativo. sigue así, super.
@3:25 2 Liters? 1 liter maybe? Or 2 cups? 😁
If I said 2 liters...whoops! 2 cups :)
MSR WindBurners are in the $200+. They are about half the price of a cheap home gas stovetop and oven from Home Depot. I'll stick to budget personal stoves for the outdoors. Don't need the luxury.
Thanks, Ernie! I stumbled upon this video comparing the Windburner and Jetboil Flash:
ua-cam.com/video/Fid8oT7mueY/v-deo.html. Thought it would be useful to compare with your upcoming cook-off between the two. In checking the Windboil specs, I noticed that the pot is hard anodized aluminum. MSR does a great job of making it look like titanium, which would have been nice to have at the price, but not as efficient for a quick boil or actual cooking. 👍☺
I'll stick with my jet boil minimo
