Here is a detailed look at the MSR Windburner 1.0L Integrated Camp Stove. I have used this stove from 12,000 ft elevation down to Sea Level. I have used it in Negative temperatures up to 100+ degrees. Extreme winds(Really extreme) seem to not even exist when you're using it...most likely the best Backpacking Stove I have ever used!

Thank you all for the support! Let me know what you think of the video...Anything extra you would like to see/reviewed in these camp stove reviews?
Side Note: Anyone see the Hawk at the top of the tree during the Drone Fly Over Shot?😳👍🏼
I agree with your review (including your dissatisfaction with the MSR lighter). I’ve used the Windburner for five years in heat and cold, and I’m delighted each time I use it. I don’t have the press, but I recently added the skillet to my kit. It has some quirks and a learning curve, but it’s been a solid addition.
Thanks for sharing! Yeah its always something that can be counted on.
Great work. Glad to see this channel up and running. Don't be afraid to review gear that already has a ton of reviews, your opinion is always appreciated 👍🏻
Thank you!
Been a GY6 subscriber for around 2 years. I was around for the launch of GY6 slo mo and now GY6 Outdoors. And you guys never disappoint. From video quality with 1440p, great audio, and presentation. As well as entertaining and still informative and honest with the product reviews. Great job.
Thank you for the support Lewis! It means a lot, many hours of detailed work go into these videos and I thank you for the support in a big way!
@@GY6outdoors Hopefully I can becoming apart of the patreon soon so I can support as much as possible. Looking forward to your future videos.
If you want to use your own pot or pan with that, take a solo stove (great back-up) or just the top part to set on top to bring any pot or pan. Fits better upside down.
Jetboil pot adapter fits it
I can definitely see this channel taking off and being very popular
That means a lot! Thanks Josh
Thank you keep up the good work
Thanks you for a great review. No fluff just facts. MSR makes great stoves but they are on the costly side. Have had a MSR whisper lite since 89, stove has never failed yet but the pump on the fuel canisters can be a annoying.
Thank you!
Buy once, Cry once! It has always worked out well for me in the Outdoors gear department. You figure you spend x2 or x3 the price for the higher end gear...but it lasts 5x-10x as long...so in the end you save money. Though price doesn't always mean Quality...so information like this review is necessary.
Very complete, thorough review. It is what we have come to expect from you Andrew. Well done.Appreciate your attention to quality of video but no sweat. Quality info and great shots of the functionality of the Stove. Looking forward to future videos.
I have the MSR Windburner stove system and really enjoy using the stove.
one of the best around that is certain!
That is a very cool stove!! Compact and fast. That would be perfect for my hunting back pack. That was awesome man! Thank you
Ok now now that is awesome. Totally worth the wait! Great job!
Thank you!
As promised, got your six. Liked, subbed and watched start to finish for those retention algorithms. Salutations from Newcastle upon Tyne, England.
Thank you for supporting it means a ton!
I love watching you do what you love mate. If things pick up financially I'd gladly patreon you too, till then I'll do what I can on YT. Avid English fan. Stay safe.
Really enjoyed this. Great voice and good presentation of the product. I'm very unfamiliar with these types of things and really enjoyed the video. Can't wait to see more of these!
Thank you!
Very cool product Sir. Great job reviewing this product GY6
You may be able to get the Jet Boil cup cover to work on there and it's a great fit. Plus the cover has a color changing "flame" to show when it's boiling.
Agree that this is THE one to buy, but surprised you didn’t mention the elephant in the room regarding anything comparable...i.e. Jetboil. This is superior in performance and RELIABILITY versus Jetboil, and it’s clearly worth comparing. Jetboil works, and you may not have an issue until it’s gets really cold or long term durability becomes an issue, then you’ll wish you bought an MSR.
Plus this stove doesn't sound like a rocket taking off.
Great job bro, I will buy the stove and matches 🤙🏼
Great review!!! Didn’t know they had a French press will definitely have to pick one up. Looking forward to this channels growth.
Thank you Michael. I'm very excited for the future of it as well. Also if you ever decide to purchase anything from a video please use the Amazon links in my videos. We get small kick back from Amazon affiliate links and helps to cover future production costs to keep the channel rolling. Thanks again for the support Michael.

Thank you!
Already love this new channel! Thanks Andrew!
Thank you Manny!
That's an awesome little stove......... Great info. I had never heard of it, so thanks.......
Thanks for watching Vic! Glad it gave you some info
Never seen a more solid review great job
Thank you Timothy!
Awesome channel. Looking forward to seeing more content. Thanks for the great job.
I like MSR products. I also use MSR microfilter too.
I like the format any thing outdoors camping overlanding is useful in all aspects
I'm really enjoying the way you review stuff. Keep up the good work.
Just bought this bad boy today and can’t wait to try it out! The guy at the shop sold me on it and your video further confirms what a great purchase it was. Thank for the video!
My pleasure, please help my channel out and use the Clickable links for any product I review...affiliate links help give kickbacks to the channel and help in production costs. These links are not directly related to the product companies in review, but work through a 3rd party and help my channel cover production costs.
I definitely will! I still have quite a few things to get for my AT thru hike this coming year. Would have gotten the wind burner thru your link, but had already purchased it by the time I found your review. But will absolutely use your affiliate links for future purchases. 😊
Definitely can't wait for future videos.
Thank you!
Awesome videos and would like to see a shortened well edited actual trip.....like day give it the goal IE products to be used and stay out all day showing some of the trek. That would be my ideal show to watch
I dont comment much but i watch ALL of your videos.
I really love the idea of this new outdoor channel, i backpack in the mountains of my home state West Virginia a few times a year and i'm always looking for new gear to toss in my pack and i respect your reviews on gear so i look forward to more!
Also, dont worry about the lighting and such so much, we dont expect movie quality videos, we understand outdoor lighting and wind and such.
Keep up the good work and give us more videos!!
Also may i suggest a video on a ideal backpacking carry pistol? I personally carry my Sig 320RX Compact with a sig light.
Thank you for the constant support and I'm glad you're enjoying these.
I personally love the G43 or Shield 45acp
Just upgraded to the windburned from a pocket rocket 2 and wow what a difference. I had the pocket rocket 2 for a little over a year and used it a bunch of times and just the other day the coating of the cup started to flake off in my food. Hopefully this lasted longer than what comes with the pocket rocket 2.
Thank you for this review my dad is a coffee addict so I think I found his Christmas present
Great to hear! He will love it. Do me a favor and use the links in the video, we get small kick backs from Amazon and it helps to keep the production costs down on our end for future videos.
I shop alought on Amazon so its nice to know I'd be supporting your channel through that
love this channel as well Andrew... keep em coming bro great content
Thank you Matt. yeah my Patreon.com/GY6outdoors support is growing slowly but every new supporter I get the more videos I'll be doing!
Jet boil first to come out. I've switched to MSR to try out.
Msr needs a separate lighting source, spark ignition waste a lot of gas before it lights.
I use mine during training, active calls, family trips. I've gone through 4 jetboils due to certain times needing to be hasty, over 8 yrs. They dont break just bend out of shape and need to cannibalize old to repair new but they keep working.
Had one in the back of the rig during a campaign melted but still worked. Fire season is starting, I'll see if this msr holds up.
The MSR windburner is a beast of a stove…still running strong all these years later after a lot of abuse
Can see this channel going far
MSR makes nice quality equipment for the most part.
Great review.
It’s like a Jetboil,sort of.👍🏾
Much better than Jet Boils. Their strikers fail quiet a bit
truly loved your video , grtz from Belgium, subbed !
loving this new channel, honestly I was kind of.... um fire arms was getting kind of old. Glad you went to something new. My only hold back is the price, $190 is expensive for me. But I guess you get what you pay for. Keep up the amazing video's.
I rather buy 1 stove and have it work for 20 years, than 4 $50 stoves over 20 years. Buy Once... Cry Once
This is a great review. Seems like it might be slightly slower to boil than the Jetboil Flash I bought, but the Jetboil's internal piezo lighter broke on my second trip. I've been using that MSR piezo stick for it, and it lights right up. I prefer the Windburner for all the accessories, and the finish of it is just so much easier to clean. I just wish lighting it was easier and built-in. I'd rather use lighters and matches solely as a backup.
2 years late but jetboil would of replaced free
YEAH! Been waiting for someone I like to do these types of videos. There are too many posers out there claiming knowledge.
But! When I watch you, I know I can count on the information. And be safer when I do decide to camp out and so forth. Unfortunately,
in Norway, we can't have all your "toys" but some we are allowed to own ^^ Keep these videos coming sir! And you have a great day! :D
Thank you Alexander! The support and trust in my work means a ton!
Great video! Thanks! Do you still like it? Getting ready to switch out my backpacking kitchen.
Still LOVE it!
Nice review of a great product. Will subscribe. Thanks.
Thank you Alan!
That is pretty nifty, great review!
Good over view I really like the pot fin arrangement and thinking behind it.
If I want to replace my MSR pocket rocket 2 this is what I will go to but as MSR kit is bomb proof it may be some time yet👍
My favorite part compared to a jetboil is how quite it is.
I'm considering switching to the Windburner (it seems better than Jetboil, and MSR is a quality company worth supporting), but my only concern is the cost of the fuel and waste. Right now I'm using a Whisperlite International and can refill my container using cheap white gas and just pump it up to pressurize. These smaller Isobutane containers can technically be refilled with just butane using adapters, but it seems like a big hassle. Still might be worth it despite the cost and extra garbage of the old containers just for a single cooking system though, as my stove plus container plus nested cookware/bowls/cups set is heavier and takes up at least twice the space.
You will not be disappointed! it is the hard to beat!
@@GY6outdoors I ended up getting one, and love the convenience. The fuel costs are quite a bit higher, but I think it's worth it. Thanks.
Thanks for helping me make up my mind with this video.
biolite makes a good camp stove that also charges electronics
It's on the list
Appreciate the video. Well done
Thanks for watching!
Greetings from North Pole Alaska! Question about the french press... I don't drink coffee but I know the leaders and parents of our Cub Scouts too... what type of coffee grounds should be used to prevent it going through and getting in the drinking cup. Fantastic video, love all the info and the showing of how it works! Thanks for what you do!
Regular Ground coffee gets filtered out. Super Fine Espresso allows for some fine grains to come through though. Link for Press is in the video description.
Great video. Solid review.
Thank you Larry!
Great review! Thank you!
My pleasure! Thank you for watching
> In all tests that we have conducted with the two comparative products that we reviewed (Jetboil FLASH / MSR Windburner / MSR REACTOR) the slowest to boil (same amount of water) was the Jetboil Flash. We prefer the MSR models which can easily be lit with a match/cigarette lighter, because the problem we have found was with the Jetboil's piezo lighter is also NOT consistent, they break, and they also don't last for ever. You will notice that Jetboil DON'T sell just the Ignitor/Pot Support as an accessory/replacement part, at least nowhere that we have found. Both the MSR Windburner/Reactor wins hands down in this race of the highest standards for: quality, longevity, ease-of-use, weight, and robustness for backpacking/rafting trips in the wilderness with groups.
nice video, keep it up man!
Reminds me of my Jet Boil's design.
That thing is nice.
Great video, Thanks
My pleasure glad it helped. Thanks for the support
Hey, That's Pretty Good.
I`m a kind of MSR Fanboy since more then 30 Years. I've had many different Stoves, but mostly from MSR ( 3 different Versions of the XGK Multifuel, a Whisperlite, 3 time the Reactor, etc. ); now I have this Windburner in 1L & 1,8L Version, as well as my beloved Reactor with 1L & 1,7L Pot, as well as the XGK newest Version.
And I have to say quit honestly, that the Reactor ( especially with it's 1,7L Pot) is still much more Fuel efficient ( up to 25%) then the Windburner, and fare ahead above the Jetboils. Also the Reactor builds significant lower in its total hight, when operating as the Windburner, and I only use a stand underneath the Reactor, when operating in snow. The Windburner gets much to much Top heavy when in use with a full pot.....so it definitely need it's foot stand.
And I also constantly read that the Reactor couldn't simmer......what is definitely NOT TRUE !! I use it since 2008 and never ever had a big problem simmering.
But to be fair.....this kind of stove is not intended for fine queasiness cooking.......
I use it mostly in north Scandinavia ( ICELAND ) under very harsh conditions, far away from gas supply or tech support. So it has to be reliable, very fuel efficient, easy to operate, less parts, that could be lost ( especially if they are small ) and weatherproof under all circumstances.
Everyone asks for a build in piezo to be perfect..................BULLSHIT......I have never seen a Stove, that piezo is working properly for a longer time. Try to get it operate in rainy wett conditions.....it will fail for sure !!!!
So make yourself a favor and buy a small fire steel ......it couldn't`brake, and if it is weet or dirty.....wip it of with your shirt and it will work and start all kind of Stoves without a problem, even in heavy weather.
So my kind of choice : The MSR XKG for deep winter long range trips without support, Reactor (1,7L Pot) for equal trips, but only between 1-3 weeks with temps down to -10 Celsius in a max. Short Trips up to 1 week or where gas supply is not a big problem......then take the Windburner.
DONE :-)
Just my 50 Cent
Thank you for your insight and info on the stoves you’ve have used. Great information to be remembered. Thank you!
great video thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Great vid, I must say that I will not agree with you about the MSR lighter . Using it every time with my stove and work at the first try... i guess I get a good one.
Great review! :)
Thank you
Did MSR ever respond to ignitor issues?
Its extremely wind resistant. And.it.has a valve which opens up with altidude or cold. Which makes it.far more effective at altidude. And it uses every last bit of gas , opening the valve as it gets less.
Nice video and a good look at this stove. I personally want to know how loud a stove is at full throttle. Super loud stoves are a little less attractive than quiet stoves. Also, can it simmer?
yes, it has simmer. Turn it as high or low as you want.
Doesn't it have a special separate unit like a Jet Boil enabling it to take ordinary pans?
There are extra parts you can buy to allow it to use a pan, but there is also a custom skillet that is designed for it as well. This one amzn.to/3ipCYoz
Hello
Can we use msr alphine cookset also in msr wind buner???
Is the Mrs lighter thingy supposed to go through those round holes in the wind break thingy....?
no
could u check out the camp chef stryker stove
I'll look into it for sure
Any issues with not bieng able to turn the bottle upside down? My other MSR Stove has a stand to hold the butain bottle upside down. And can you cook with a regular pan or do I need the MSR fry pan with the heat exchanger?
Zero issues. I’ve been able to run my ISO B all the way to zero just as is, no need to turn it upside down
Never had coffee before
Good burner but way too heavy for my taste. Just the burner weighs 230 g.
Another issue is the vessels. You have to buy also the dedicated MSR skillet to cook. No other skillet/pot/bowl will fit. I have it, I use it just for short, sunday picnics around the house. For trekking/hiking serious burners, search elsewhere.
I would respectively and highly disagree, thought the proprietary pots and pans piss me off, that I agree on. The extra weight you carry for certainty of a hot meal/coffee in some very cold locations...is worth every extra oz. Yes there are some pocket stoves that work well too(in ideal situations), but they also waste a ton of fuel just trying to boil water in any type of tough climate or situation involving wind of any sort. The windburner is very quick and utilizes much less fuel for similar tasks. So once you factor in all the extra fuel you need to bring to make your pocket stove get each task done...the weight is actually heavier long run to bring more fuel for 10+ day trips.
Cool
When u use it the lid will heat up and tighten up
Still hasn’t for me, and it’s been 10years lol
@@GY6outdoors lol
Be patient, bro 🙏
can you boil milk with MSR Windburner.,some people said you can't
Don't know why you would, but yes you could lol
@@GY6outdoors because I only like coffee done with hot milk some people said it would burn and it would ruin MSR Windburner because it boil too quick
This or the jetboil?
THIS! The wind resistance is INCREDIBLE!
@@GY6outdoors good to hear that!
You’re using The French press backwards. The teeth go down.
You have an outdoor channel. Damn why dont you promote on the other channel
113
is that gray hair I see?
Been grey since I was in high school lol.
Has anybody checked out the new jetboil Flash it has a new style burner and according to a video I saw it cooks or boils in approximately two minutes which is better than MSR so check it out go get it love it and use it sorry MSR. 😎
product name in title?
I don't know why he even bothers bringing a stove... He's so hot, I'd imagine water boils as soon as it gets a good look at him! 🤤😅
A rocket stove works much better and uses wood
I've used a rocket stove...yes they work well when you have enough dry wood to keep it going for the time you need it, but smoke and open flame in outdoor adventures can be a NO NO depending on where you go. This stove is acceptable damn near anywhere, and works 100% of the time in any environment as long as you have isobutane.
@@GY6outdoors that's the one draw back I could see aswell great video thanks
windburner doesn't come close.....lol
nothing beats msr reactor.... the best !
Very similar system, but for another + $100 …depends on if you want spend an extra $100 for minimal changes in performance 🤷🏻♂️
@@GY6outdoors
there's nothing minimal about it bro. it is totally windproof , whereas, windburner is ..... mere wind resistant.... lol
