I can recomend these, I have used mine for over 6years, day in and day out,as I take it with me to work and it is a good as the first day I bought it. Screw up a bit of paper bung in some dead grass a few twigs and you will have a kettle of boiling water in minutes. Tip I buy a bundle of firewood from my local garage and chop it down to kindling, you get a higher faster burn without the smoke. The way the kettle is designed you dont get any smoke in your water so there is no problems with a smoky taste, I also chuck a bit of charcoal in the fire and then I can also cook over the base of the kettle, you can get the frying pan and saucepan to fit the base. If you want lightweight fast boils there are plenty of gear on the market, but if you can chill out and relax when you are fishing the kettle is a nice thing to have around, plus you can warm your hands while you are waiting for the kettle to boil. Keeps the mossies away in summer if you burn a bit of dried up grass or dead reeds. Grahams write up say it all really, and I would give it 10/10, because it does what it says on the box.
