Primus
Score 6.8 / 10
Average of substance, design, and value.
Skips regulator and piezo to keep cost at $38 yet independent comparison found it outperforms the similarly priced GigaPower 2.0 in fuel efficiency.
$38 typical
It omits regulator and piezo rather than pretending to be premium. The spending goes into a conventional durable burner, useful heat reflector and controllable valve—exactly the components that matter at this price.
Offers useful heat and corrosion resistance in a simple, low-cost design.
Compared with 7 other products in edition 1.
This product: 7.5 out of 10
Independent comparison finds higher performance and efficiency than the similarly stable GigaPower 2.0.
This product: 5.5 out of 10
Plain, friendly and low-fuss, with a large control and sensible pot supports. The non-piezo simplicity is aesthetically honest, although it is neither especially windproof nor the smallest packed burner.
Simple metal construction and no ignition mechanism make it a sensible long-term budget purchase. Carry a lighter; no regulator means fuel performance will decline in cold or with a nearly empty canister.
