Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

UOG TOP PICK – MSR’s Dragonfly Multi-Fuel Stove – Top Multi-Fuel Stove – We’ve singled out MSR’s Dragonfly as one of our top recommendations because it’s got the adaptability of being multifuel but also has the advantage of having simmer control or flame thrower performance and legendary field test heritage over many years.

MSR says

Precision flame control with large-pot stability.

The Dragonfly stove takes precision-simmering performance and puts it in a chassis that’s built to handle a variety of fuels and the frequent use dished-out by global vagabonds. Tough and stable, it also excels in institutional and guide service settings, easily handling pots up to 10” in diameter. Its dual-valve design delivers the flame control you need for simmering sauces, and goes from zero to searing at the twist of a knob for melting snow and brewing-up fast.

The top choice when cooking for larger groups or elaborate meals for two, MSR Gourmet cookware features our most comprehensive, high-capacity cooksets and systems, providing unlimited cooking options.

Our Verdict

The Dragonfly is a bit of a classic that will burn a wide range of fuels.
