Major flaws on a great stove, for specific used only - Jetboil Genesis Base Camp Stove

Alainzen's Review of Jetboil Genesis Base Camp Stove
I bought this stove to replace a bulky classic box shape two burner stove. I needed something more compact for camping and overlanding as the space in my truck is limited. I tested the Genesis stove over a long weekend as my only stove, which turned out to be a mistake.
Pros:
-Compact when fold
-Superb control of the flame
-High quality item
Cons:
-Unstable, very, you MUST have a solid flat surface under it like a table
-Unstable again, the two parts don't lock when opened. Hard to set if no table...
-The grill in the center is design for large pans and pots, I wish I realized that earlier... Won't hold my 1L pot so, no morning coffee
-The solid pipe connecting the can tank is hard to connect and always seem to be in the way.
-You will miss the wind protection from your old box stove. The plastic trim provided is a lame attempt.
-Clearly design to sell accessories
I still recommend it due to the quality and if you want to cook for a lot of folk in a secure setup, but not for travelling.
Pros:
QUALITY
compact
Flame control, burner design, construction quality
Cons:
Unstable
Limited use
Not compatible with all kitchen items
Best Used for:

RV
