Last year I borrowed my brother-in-law's pocket rocket to backpack hunt and it worked well for me, but this year I'm buying some of the items so I don't need to be on the dole.
The pros and cons I've seen are: Pocket rocket pros: cheaper for stove only, can buy a bigger pot to boil/cook in. Cons: seems like it's less stable than jetboil, since it's not 1 unit.
Jetboil pros: 1 compact unit. Cons: limited to 2 cups at a time (I eat 2 packs of oatmeal and 1 hot chocolate for breakfast), and I've read about problems with the lid melting.
Which do you all think is better and, more importantly, why?
