PocketRocket is the known upright stove. Deluxe adds regulation and ignition. A foil windscreen used badly can overheat a canister. Read the manual. If your trips are calm and your menu is water, this is enough. If your trips are breezy ridges, buy the WindMaster.
Who should buy it. Fair-weather backpackers who want the smallest familiar stove.
Best for. Fair-weather boils
Standout limitation. Poor in wind without a careful setup
