I carry a MSR Pocket Rocket and have always been satisfied with the results. As an avid coffee drinker I love how quick I can boil a cup of water for a hot drink. The stove itself packs small but depending on what size fuel canister you carry they can be troublesome to pack correctly. The one drawback I have seen is cooking with a larger pot it can be a little unbalanced. With experience it's not much of an issue but I have seen dinners ruined by this.
