Sometimes while taking on additional provisions you don't have the time or resources to pick and match specific fuel canisters to specific stove brands. That's why MSR designed their SuperFly Stove with a Multi-Mount that adapts to a range of self-sealing fuel canister shapes and sizes. The SuperFly has a generous flame with a large burner that heats pots and pans faster than any other MSR fuel canister stove--without burning up precious fuel too quickly. The glove-friendly flame control valve helps fine-tune your cooking between simmer and boil with less hassles than full on/full off backpacking stoves. One eight-ounce MSR IsoPro fuel canister will burn for a 60-minute average. One eight-ounce MSR IsoPro fuel canister will burn for a 60-minute average.
This is one of the most versatile stoves, and is compatible with nearly all self sealing fuel canisters. The MSR SuperFly canister stove’s adaptable, Multi-Mount™ interface makes it our most versatile when traveling internationally. Compatible with most self-sealing fuel canisters, sturdy pot supports add stability for larger pots and a broad flame delivers even heating and makes the SuperFly stove one of the fastest boiling stoves available. Available with or without piezo auto-ignition for flameless ignition. [Fuel Canister NOT included] Universal: Multi-Mount™ interface fits most self-sealing domestic and international canisters. Fast: Boils 1 liter of water in 3 minutes Full Flame Contro: Glove-friendly controls allow precise flame adjustment, from a simmer to a boil. Broad Flame: Disperses heat for better cooking performance. Country of Origin: Made in Seattle, USA

Take the optional AutoStart matchless flame Igniter as one example, or the precise flame control that enables you to simmer or boil with the turn of a knob. Well thought out details include controls that work with cold, gloved hands, serrated legs that grip pots, and a burner that re lights itself when partially blown out, even in extreme wind. And, of course, its straight forward ease of use.

Great Little Stove | |
| Rating: |  |
| I used this stove on my entire 2168 mile Appalachian Trail thru-hike. I started in late Feb. and it was really cold. I had no problems getting the stove to cook my meals even on the coldest of nights. Maybe only once did I have to warm the canister before use.I would give it a 5 star rating but it does have a few issues. Being that it's a taller unit, you have to make sure it's on a flat surface, since balance can be an issue. Wind can rob heat from it so cook in a sheltered area away from the wind. Don't do what the other guy did, NO windscreens on canister stoves!Overall it's a great stove, simple to use, light, and maintenance free. It’s small enough to fit inside your pot too. The best part is you can use almost every type of fuel canister out there, a big plus when the outfitter one carries one brand fuel. | |

SIMPLE & FAST | |

| Previous reviews sum it up. However, here's a fix for a frozen/stuck valve due to cold temps: While on the SHR last month at 25F, the control valve froze shut leaving me to enjoy balance bars for breakfast again. So, after dinner that night after I unscrewed the cannister I turned the control valve to the open position and stored the stove in this manner. The next morning, with match ready, I screwed the cannister on and lit her up real quick. Worked like a charm. I did this the next 19 mornings out of need. I imagine the manufacturer does not condone this, nor does REI, but, hey, it worked fine. Another PRO: my 8 oz cannister lasted 20 days boiling 1.5 liters of water daily at an avg. of 10k ft of altitude. | |

| The pot supports are sharp and have put holes in every bag I have put them in. I finally ended up just grinding them down and that helped, plus didn't effect how the pots sit. It fires up instantly, keeps a good flame, and simmers well. Make sure you have it on a solid, flat base and don't use a tall, slender pot or you may end up with your water or meal on the ground. I've had close to a dozen stoves over the years and this is the easiest one to use and the fastest one to boil water that I have ever used. I have not found it to work all that well at cold temps and high altitude (mid 30's over 8000') despite what the ads say. | |

Great little stove - | |
| Rating: | |
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! | |

Great stove for the basics | |
| Rating: | |
| This is a great canister stove, especially for the beginner. Unlike others, this one attaches to any can that has a lip (most brands). It sets up quick and easy, and has great temperature control, just like all cannister stoves. Just like other cannister stoves, though, you quickly end up with a box of nearly empty fuel cans you don't know what to do with. Any cannister stove that sits on top of the gas can will be more unstable. They won't work as well in cold weather unless you warm it up first (try putting it in your sleeping bag or under your fleece). | |

The Only Stove You'll Ever Need! | |
| Rating: | |
| I have had this stove for a little over a year now and it's awesome. I used to mess around with pumping and pooring white gas...what a pain! This stove is like the difference between charcoal BBQ's and Gas BBQ's. It's just turn the gas on, click the auto starter and your off! I have used it in the dead of winter and for early morning summer flap jackets. The only down side is you can not recycle the gas canisters when they are empty. It also accomodates pretty much any bottle you can find out there, though I have yet to take it internationally. | |

Simple, Reliable cooking | |
| Rating: | |
This is my 4th season using this stove backpacking in the Rockies (elev's 7500-11,700'), and I still love it. Easy & fast to assemble/disassemble, simple to light manually (do not have auto igniter), boils water quickly, excellent flame control allows simmering down to almost no flame. Lightweight and compact, always gets the job done, has never disappointed. Have not tried this for extended winter camping, but had no trouble lighting or using at ~20 degrees F. My only complaint is susceptible to wind--need to devise your own windbreak, as MSR warns against & does not provide any sort of wind screen for canister stoves. | |

Great value | |
| Rating: | |
| I love this stove. Some reviewers have found it to be unstable, I have not. But I can see how some fuel canisters might cause it to be unstable. If you are using the tall, bottle-type, then yes, this could be risky. I have had no difficulty using the round, short canisters. This stove boils fast, the temperature is easily adjusted, and it cools quickly for fast clean-up. And it is super light! I have used it primarily for backpacking and up to 10,000 ft, and for up to four people...not a problem yet. Great value! | |

Works beautifully but packs uneasily. | |
| Rating: | |
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. | |

Does the job, but... | |
| Rating: | |
I've never "habitated" in the field, but for the random week trips around the continental US this stove performed adequately. It heats well, takes most fuel canisters, and is relatively durable. Biggest gripe is that it doesn't do it for larger groups, and if there is wind get ready to make a windshield unless you don't mind wasting fuel waiting for water to boil. The flame is good unless in harsh winds or weather. As a single/double person stove for ultralight trips, it is awesome. | |

Sharp points when packed and slight bending | |
| Rating: |  |
Bought this stove b/c i do more than boiling water and wanted a larger burner surface to avoid burning the noodles in the center of the pot. But, like others have experienced, the burner assembly bent about 10-15 degrees when it was boiling 8 cups of water. I haven't tried to bend it back b/c i'm almost always cooking on an uneven surface anyway and need to level it with sand or stick anyway so i just compensate. Would be annoying if cooking on a flat surface like a picnic table, etc. Also, it doesn't compact well and the pot holders only pivot on the center screw so they line up with each other, leaving two nasty points which are sharp and exposed. Since i keep the stove in my pot, i've never had puncture problems, but it sure doesn't pack into the pot well; i have to fidget with it. It has all the reliability of other canister stoves and i've cooked with it on pretty cold nights. At this price, however, there are probably other better canister stove designs. | |

Not the best I've seen | |
| Rating: | |
My buddy used this stove on a -30F artic tundra caribou hunting trip and it did not work so well. It does not have a auto igntition which at -30F, matches and lighters DO NOT work and when you're sitting in a 5 foot snow shelter trying to melt snow while half frozen, the last thing you want is to be fussing with matches and lighters, fumbling with gloves and pockets and the whole mess...I had my Coleman F1, which does have a auto ignite feature that worked first time, every time like a champ. We lit his stove with mine--then his would only stay half way lit around the burner--flame kept dancing around the burner. Not good when your life is depending on it--although it did work better in the tent off the mountain--not that that matters much then. | |

Not up to MSRs reputation | |
| Rating: | |
I used these stoves in the field for 3-4 years. They are capable of handling a larger pot than most 'small' stoves, but they are also moody and fragile. If you are willing to nurse the stove and need a stove to handle a larger pot this will do it, but I think MSR missed the mark on this product. If you want to cook for a group, accept that you need a liquid fuel stove. If you want to cook for yourself and a climbing partner, there are better stoves on the market. Consider the Snow Peak Giga Power for summer trips or the MSR Reactor for winter trips. | |

A big shot to a big flop | |
| Rating: |  |
| I bought the SuperFly with all of the great things I heard about it in mind, But alas, o my first trip out it failed miserably. I tried to use it to cook breakfast (pancakes) and not only did the flame never get up to its full heat output even after I heated up the fuel tank, but the auto started melted beyond repair when I put a heat shield around it. I was out on a warm couple of days at sea level. These sort of problems should not occur on a $60 stove. | |

Good stove, but hard on fuel | |
| Rating: |  |
| I like this stove, especially since it is flight-legal for transport aboard a commercial aircraft - they'll let you take one of these, but not one that runs off of a re-fillable bottle like the whisperlight. It heats quickly and it's worth the extra money to get the autolighter. The only drawback is the fuel consumption. My Whisperlight will run off an equivalent amount of fuel nearly twice as long as the SuperFly, which means that I have to carry more canisters, which then end up in a landfill somewhere. | |
