Great solo cook kit from msr - MSR WindBurner 1.0L System

Walter Bates's Review of MSR WindBurner 1.0L System
Bought this a year ago and it is my go to cook kit when backpacking in expected windy conditions or in the mountains. At just under one pound (excluding fuel canister) I have found it to be light, fuel efficient and compact thus easier to carry, use and pack on longer backpacking trips (150 miles not 2000 mile thru hikes). Having all the pieces contained within the pot helps me keep track of all the pieces (no more hunting around in my pack). Pressure regulator helps keep the flame well controlled at elevation and colder temps. Not sure why some folks have issues with the thermocouple shut off protection as it is resettable (as explained in manual) and I personally like and respect the MSR engineering behind this product. I also like MSR products because I can get parts should I ever need them in the future (made to last not throwaway). * I also purchased a collapsible sea to summit X Cup 8.3floz cup which fits over the stove canister fitting but inside the pot, protecting both the fitting and pot while providing a nice cup for hot drinks. My only con is that I enjoy several cups of hot chocolate or coffee with my dehydrated meals and thus am looking at the larger 1.8 liter duo which is designed for two but in my case would allow more drinks.
Pros:
relatively lightweight
Fuel efficient
self contained
Excellent build quality
MSR engineered product that is compatible with a range of different pots, skillets and accessories
Cons:
Am considering buying the 1.8 liter compatible pot for cooler temp hikes
Best Used for:
When IsoPro fuel canisters are available at resupply points.
Would Recommend:
Yes

Senior hiker. Retired, kiddos raised, my wife of 46yrs busy enjoying home-life with her aging parents and our grandkids on our property compound. At this time in my life, my mind and love of the outdoors is calling.
Before marriage, I hiked for months at a time out west. Grand Canyon, Kings Canyon, Big Sur, Yosemite with an 1gal water jug, AA flashlight, sleeping bag, svea stove, fuel bottle, plastic sheet but no tent. Recently, I have spent some money with Campsaver upgrading my gear and tested it (and myself) hiking several trails within Glacier National Park to see if I still was able and enjoyed the hike. WOW, I do. Met a guy (now friend) at REI and we are planning to SOBO thru-hike the JMT in 2024. Heading off to Big Bend next month for more gear shakeout testing and to enjoy the area in cooler temps. I look forward to our paths crossing on the trail!
