Rating:  - RAPTOR ROCKS
Although rarely factored in, fuel always adds bulk or weight to a backpacker's stove, nevertheless, this little stove has a lot going for it. The built-in piezo-electric start is a really great feature and works on the first try on mine. The burner can be regulated from barely a flame to a roaring jet blast with easy adjustment. It folds up like a 'Transformer' into a tiny unit that fits into a fabric carry case and
weighs next to nothing. Well engineered and constucted, it will definitely ... Read More

The Brunton Raptor Foldable Canister Stove with Piezo Ignition is an ingenious design incorporating folding pot supports and a piezo lighter. The entire stove, minus a fuel canister fits into an included small padded nylon case about 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" x 2 1/2" and weighing only a few ounces. It is easy to light with the incorporated piezo lighter. The Brunton Raptor competes head-to-head with the MSR Superfly, but wins for pack size and price. The Raptor is $20.00 less than the Superfly with a piezo ... Read More

I have owned my Brunton Raptor for two seasons. I have taken it backpacking in to the Colorado Rockies and prepared meals for up to seven. The Raptor performed the same at sealevel as it did at 12,000 feet. The ease of setting up the Raptor and getting right to cooking is a real plus. With the compressed gas canister there is no fussing with the gas generator or pumping of fuel bottles. The piezoelectric ignition has worked very reliably even though one must take care to keep it dry and out of strong ... Read More
Rating: - Solid buy
Please note that I haven't field tested this yet... an essential component for a product like this. This, therefore, is only out-of-the-box initial impressions.
This thing is wonderfully small; it folds into a small pocket-sized wallet. I can anticipate some damage to the product if placed under significant weight (so don't).
The stability of the product, I presume, will largely depend on the gas canister (I plan on purchasing a cheaper, more readily available brand). It's worth repeating ... Read More
Rating: - Great Stove bad piezo ignitor
This stove is extremely compact and easily fits in my pot set. I wish it had come with the base support shown in the picture, but as long as you find a flat spot that is not a big deal. Wind guests can wreak havoc on the flame, but as long as you have a wind break you shouldn't have any issues. The biggest complaint for me was that the piezo ignitor worked great on the first outing, and after that it no longer works. I now carry a reliable lighter and matches for backup.
