    Love your reviews! I have a stash, used it for a week long section hike and camping trip on the Long Trail. Used it several times a day, what I found I loved about it was how efficient it was, it sips fuel like a Prius... I was able to carry less fuel and spend less on fuel in the long run. I didn't do any fancy cooking with it for sure! Thanks again for your great reviews.

    Because it lacks a regulator on the stove this is a "warm weather only" kit for me (it goes when I don't feel like waiting on my esbit or alcohol stoves). The speed of a boil is largely achieved because of the pot itself, which is the heaviest component of the Stash system. This is singularly why I prefer it over any other stove. With the windscreen built into the pot, and the speed of the boil, wind is less of a worry for me. All components weigh 7.2 ounces on my scale. Thank you for the review! Note: I have too many stoves and enjoy them all for various reasons. Sometimes I bring a particular stove solely to ensure it's used at least once a year. So I understand my reasons for liking this stove may not be in line with the average backpacker.

    Got one since Spring, and have used it some. The lid tends to fall off in my example as well, resulting to a bit of a mess few times. Have learned to keep my thumb lightly on the lid when pouring the water. This works fine as in a quick pour it does not get too hot to burn my thumb. Another negative is the slight flimsiness of the handle. Need to be quite careful in order to not dislodge the mechanism. Nevertheless, I love having a proper insulated handle that (fairly well) prevents the lid to open in pack. The biggest positive is fuel efficiency vs. weight. Because of this I invested in this expensive piece of gear, and it delivers. This enables me to often take smaller canister saving bunch of weight and space, compared to a setup of Pocket Rocket and titanium pot.

    I have the jetboil minimo system and I love it! It is a heavier system but more geared to those who want to cook on trail. I love to cook at home and my family will only go camping with me if there is going to be actual meals cooked so a stove that can simmer is a must have for me. The stash is expensive, doesn’t have a regulator and lacks the ability to adjust the flame, so it is an easy pass for me, especially when there are better ultralight options. Thanks for the gear review!

    Great review Jeremiah! I’ve had the stash for a month or so and have really enjoyed it! As stated, it not great for cooking things where you need to adjust the temp. But it’s been incredible at heating water fast for my morning aeropress, oatmeal, or dehydrated meals. I’ve also seen people fry up steaks or eggs on a skillet. Once you figure out how to properly pack it, it takes up very minimal space in my pack and I’ve quite enjoyed not losing pieces haha. I’ve found the price to be relatively comparable to alternative options here in Canada as one would have to buy a burner and cookset separately.

    Thx for putting this new Stash into perspective. Great pro’s & con’s points, some I didn’t even think about. Great video, Jeremiah. For me, as a beginner hiker, I like the idea of the Stash. Honestly, it’s going to B my 1st cook kit for backpacking. In my mind, U described everything I was going to use the stash for in the 1st place. My wife missed her calling as a chef, so to hear the info about not utilizing this Stash for fancier trail food was very disappointing. I guess I understand. Jetboil does make a skillet- I saw that. We mite need a couple add-on pieces for our couples cook set, lol!! Ty sir. Waiting for the next video!!

    Yup. I went back to my heavier Flash because of entropy. You can pump BTUs into the water as fast as you want, but if there is no insulation on the pot itself, you encounter massive entropy loss. I watched mine go from boiling to cold in under 7 minutes. My Flash on the other hand kept the water piping hot much longer simply because it's insulated. Great idea, but impractical in below-freezing conditions.

    Nicely put together review, thank you. I owned the system right about a year ago but took it back a few days later. I didn't trust the lid either, and pouring directly from the pot doesn't work too well unless it's really quick. If you're trying to do pour over coffee, etc, you end up with most of the water just going down the side of the pot instead of where you want it. And it's kind of odd that they built it so that you could use a different pot or frying pan on it, but don't give you much flame adjustability.. In the end, I figured none of these integrated systems are really for me. I have plenty of other lightweight pots and stoves to make whatever combination I like. And I know which one's pour and which ones don't.

    Have been using this since spring. Never been a fan of jet boil. Usually run with a Soto windmaster and toaks pot. I agree it struggles in the wind and cold and sucks at simmering. With that said, I do like how it stores all together and doesn’t rattle. Fuel consumption is where this shines. The little fuel canisters last forever compared to my wind master. Ultra light hikers wouldn’t even consider it, though isn’t that much heavier than my usual set up. Good review👍

    Nice review! Agree with a lot. I bought a Stash because I have 4 other JetBoils (Micros, Minis, Zip, etc) and wanted to see if JetBoil nailed a UL stove set up, but think they missed a few of the marks on it like you mentioned. No regulator, wonky pack up, flimsy lid, can't really cook in it... so I'd choose a different JetBoil in all cases especially for the price of the Stash. My MiniMo for simmering and cooking, and if you just want to boil water, the MicroMo is better and faster. I only ended up saving about 3oz total with a lot less functionality. Now I'll just pair the Stash pot with another stove like my Olicamp electron.

    I've got a Flash, and absolutely love it. I never boil water with the lid. Less than 2 minutes and it's a ROLLING boil. It also has a sleeve on the pot to keep it warm and protect your hands. I'll have to try mine in the cold now that it's cooler here in Iowa. It takes a few times to learn how to work the regulator and determine how much gas you need coming out. I don't feel the Flash is terribly heavy, but food and cooking are my luxury pieces. I can find other places to cut a little more weight to make up for it.

    I wonder how long the service life of the lid will be before it starts cracking. Will a replacement be available in 5-10 years? I like that it is big enough to fit ramen easily - simmer capability isn’t that great a concern. I just bring to a boil then shut off for a few minutes then relight again in order to save fuel. Worked last weekend at 10,800ft. I gave away my Flash due to it’s weight but keep a MSR Windburner around for cooking in high winds. Thanks.

    They seem to be good for what they’re really designed for; mountaineering etc where weight matters and the only thing you need from a stove is to boil water fast for freeze dried meals. Jetboils are also issued to US Special Forces out of all the things they could be given, to me that says a lot. They’re not designed for everyone and every situation, people that expect it to do ‘everything’ are dreaming. Thanks for the review…

    The Jetboil Stash works to boil water for me because of its efficiency in using much less fuel with its flux ring. When paired with a Soto Windmaster the fuel savings are substantial if you are out long enough. If only going backpacking 3-4 days one canister is plenty per person for any set up. However on longer trips the Stash can save the weight of carrying a second fuel canister if going out for 5-7 days.

    I always distrust and dislike a company that states certain things on their site and when you buy it, it's different. I know they often test under perfect lab conditions (eg boil times), but some things are pure deception. For example, bought a couple backpacks from well known providers that are far heavier than stated. Even if my scales were out, I could not get the stated weights without removing all straps and buckles, etc.

    Did you use any isobutane "hacks" in the winter? 10mins is too long. Winter fuel helps, but it won't burn like how it does in warmer seasons. Boil a small small amnt of water, put it in a cup, then place your canister and stove in the cup. It will perform much much better. And when the hit water gets colder, just add a little bit of hot water to make that pressure giver in the can. I camp in -20°C, this will help you a lot.

    If I live to be a hundred I will never understand the obsession with boil time. The way I see it, if someone's willing to dump an extra 100 bucks just to save a minute or two in the woods they make way too much freakin money lol. Chances are if you're cooking, you're either taking a break and airing out your feet or you're getting ready to go to bed. How could an extra two minutes POSSIBLY affect your day in any way? It's nothing but bragging rights for dudes with wee-wee issues (Granted, I'm perfectly fine driving a Hyundai Accent so I can't relate). I challenge anyone to find a video with a woman who even mentions boil time? You won't because there isn't one. Sorry... I'll get off my soapbox now lol.

    "Iteration"? Is this a gear review video or a MENSA meeting? Seriously, I rarely use cannister stoves. Too loud, too wasteful, and too costly, plus I like to set/break camp while I am cooking, and if I do that with a cannister stove I end up wasting a ton of fuel not minding the pot. I prefer wood or alcohol. I set it with the amount of fuel I expect to use and let it do its thing. If it burns out while I am busy, so what? It will still be hot for a good while. Yeah, it takes twice as long to cook with alcohol and longer with wood, but I can wait for the extra minutes. I never stop and cook for lunch, so time is not an issue. Running out of cannister fuel is, though. As I have posted to the channel before, I love my Trail Designs Ti-Tri stove kit. It comes in a two-piece container case that is admittedly bulky, but both pieces can do double-duty as two drink cups. I can fit within it my alcohol stove, spoon(s), lighter, matches and several Esbit cubes, so I do not mind the bulk. And I could improvise without the container case to make a much smaller carry if I cared. I can vary the heat on the pot by raising or lowering the pot betwen two levels. The two downsides are that (1) it can blow around in gusts if you are cooking on a rock or picnic table (especially before you put a loaded pot atop it) because you cannot stake it down to those surfaces, and (2) it must be used with only a specific circumference of a particular stove. You order it by the brand and model of the pot you have. I have a titanium Snowpeak cookpot with a matching titanium skillet that doubles as a lid. Like you, I carry a separate titanium cup (I do not drink hot liquids out of plastic - bad, bad, bad for you) so I can drink coffee or tea while I am setting/breaking camp and waiting for breakfast or dinner to cook. That second gripe has never been a concern for me, though. Love your frank honestly Mr. Stringer. FIGHT THE POWER! ;)
