Trail-proven for nearly two decades. Boils water faster at frigid temps than gas canister stoves.
For nearly two decades the award-winning MSR WhisperLite has remained the stove of choice for more backcountry experts than almost any other liquid fuel stove on the market. It features a simple and highly reliable design with a shaker jet self-cleaning valve for simplified maintenance. Over the years MSR refined their fuel pump with a simplified flame adjustment and a durable design. The stainless steel legs/pot supports fold down to fit easily inside most cooking pots. Liquid fuel stoves are an excellent choice for cooking in cold temperatures. Depending on altitude and temperatures, a twenty-ounce fuel bottle of MSR white gas will burn for a 136-minute average.
Purchase USD$45 or more and get free shipping. The Mountain Safety Research MSR WhisperLite Stove is available through Altrec.com.

Bomb Proof Backcountry Stove @ a Competitive Price.
The MSR Whisperlite aided myself and two others through a 200 mile trek in the Bridger National Forest. Worked well in every condition thrown at us. It's efficient enough to provide hot breakfast and dinner to three for 10 days with the 30oz. fuel bottle. Rugged and simple design sets up and packs easily when crucial alpine daylight is burning. Altrec has got a sweet price on them especially with the free shipping. Saved at least $20.00.

MSR sets the standards
Just bought stove number 2, I already own the whisperlite internationale but could not pass up the deal on this one. I hike and camp with the wife and kids so having 2 stoves is a welcome option. Overall you cannot beat an msr stove, hands down!

Fantastic, same stove for 19 yrs, still works great
For those of you who find the wisperlight throttle a bit digital, you are probobly overpressurizing the fuel bottle, I have found as little as 3 pumps gives good temp control as wells as blazing heat, longer term cooking might require an extra pump or two as fuel pressure drops off, but for one or two I have not found it needed. All in all a true long term value for your pack.
