Our pick of the bunch is the PocketRocket Deluxe, which has a larger burner area (spreading out the flame and leading to faster boil times and better fuel efficiency, especially with larger pots), and fared better in the wind. The genius of the deluxe model is the small curved lip around the burner, which helps keep wind from getting to the base of the flame. The deluxe model also features a piezo igniter. The PocketRocket Deluxe works well as a stove for a solo traveler, but the larger burner head also makes it great for larger pots, like a 1400 ml, which is plenty for two. For larger groups, I suggest pairing off in twos for cooking purposes, or go for a remote canister stove like the MSR WhisperLite or Firebox stoves below.
