mountainsforbreakfast's Review of Primus ETA Express Spider Gas Stove

I definitely was a little skeptical purchasing a stove from a brand I haven't read much about, or purchased from before. However, this stove does not disappoint! It is extremely easy to use, and the magnetic attachment for the stove into the wind screen works perfectly. No more wind screens flying away! Also, since the stove attaches to the solid wind screen, the whole set up feels much more stable than any small stove I've ever used.
The best part about this stove is that it boiled soup in less than 90 seconds. I was really impressed with the speed and efficiency of the heating, and it literally took me 5 minutes to put the stove together, heat up my dinner, and then clean the stove out. Everything fits in a handy case, and packs together really well. This is definitely not a stove I would take backpacking, as it's a little big for that (a good bit bigger than a Jet Boil) but I like the option to use it as a regular stove with any pan, or as a *Jet Boil* type super efficient stove with the included express pot. Perfect for car camping!
One con is that the included igniter did not work, but if you have a regular old lighter that works just fine.
