MSR SuperFly Stove

 Brand : MSR
Item : CAS0053
The MSR SuperFly canister stove is light, compact, and versatile. This top-of-the-line backpacking stove works with many brands of fuel canisters, making it convenient to travel with. Designed to go big but be small, the SuperFly is practical for everything from overnighters to week long excursions in chilly to moderate temps. Enjoy the convenience of the SuperFly's AutoStart that allows matchless lighting and a burner that re-ignites itself when partially blown out, even in the wind. A large, serrated burner distributes the flame widely while gripping cookware securely. You can bring this little wonder from a simmer to a boil with a turn of the glove-friendly knob. Fuel and fuel bottles sold separately.

MSR SuperFly Stove



Great little stove -
I bought this stove two summers ago and used it for the first time on Mount Rainier where it worked well. In the very cold at 11,000 the auto igniter was hit or miss (which I attribute to the extreme cold), but I, being prepared, brought along some matches and thus did not starve. I've since used it in the Tetons, Uintas and even car camping with the kids for melting snow, boiling water and cooking. No complaints. I bent the auto igniter to be a bit closer to the burner and it works even better. For anything but high altitude extreme cold (where MSR recommends the Whisperlite and not this model) I'd say this stove is primo!


AWESOME
This stove rocks...lightweight and compatible with the Bibler hanging pot set. I do not use the auto start. I use a lighter and bring a few matches just for back up. I have used this stove at between 12-13,000 feet of altitude and had no problems at all with it. It boils water in a snap and the flame can easily be adjusted. My first choice for a stove that is lightweight, dependable and compatible with the Bibler hanging pot set!!!


Hung SuperFly
Works great with the Bibler hanging pot set. Igniter fits too. Sweet setup!!


Works beautifully but packs uneasily.
I chose this stove, and my girlfriend got the Pocket Rocket. Superfly works great, and the extra-wide bottom heats up bigger pots 4-5 mins quicker than a pocket rocket. However, it consumes noticebly more gas than the pocket rocket and does not come with a plastic container. Functionally, I can't complain, but I worry that one day its sharp and bulky corners will pierce through my backpack. After having used both of them side by side, I would go with the pocket rocket or Snow Peak gigapower stove for its size and carrying case.


Awesome but don't bother with auto-igniter
I love this stove. It boils fast and has the fit and finish of a really bomb-proof piece of gear. BUT, save yourself a little bit of money and don't get the model with the auto igniter. It's never lit using MSR's ISO fuel, which is the only fuel I've tried with the stove. It's an easy problem to fix (flick your bic or bring matches) but a disappointing waste of money.
