At 3.1 ounces, this compact stainless steel success story concerns itself with much more than just boiling water. Use the Brunton Optimus Crux to toast bread, fry a quesadilla, or melt snow in a pinch. A wide-burner head and outstanding simmer capability help the award-winning Crux maintain its superior status. This stove puts out 12,000 BTUs and doesn't need priming. Fold it down to keep the Crux tucked away beneath your butane canister, and unveil it when the cook in you is ready to perform. The collapsible burner head makes it easy to pack,

My kids and I have several backpacking stoves - and we are currently ONLY using the Brunton CRUX... all the others have been mothballed. The Brunton is well made and very reliable. It's lightweight and very efficient. We are able to cook for 3 people for one week using one large fuel canister.
