I love the jetboil series! We already had a flash for a few years, and decided to get another one in zip form! I could care less about having to manually light the zip as opposed to the button on the others. We always have lighters on hand for camping anyway. Ridiculously fast boiling! I will say it was a little difficult to get the lid on after boiling (we had a french press attachment) as it was so hot. Which is obviously good, just saying. My friends had more issues with that than I did (maybe just be a little more patient and careful ;-P). Also, be careful of the amount of water you put in the canister to boil. It can easily boil over, and obviously it's hard to switch it off or take it off the heat when boiling water is spilling out all over! But overall, I love it! Very compact, the canisters last a decently long time! We usually have the 230g and that lasts 3 days worth of a weekend camping trip boiling 3 mug fulls in the morning each morning, boiling 3 separate times over the weekend for some dish water, and two nights worth of boiling to use with dinner! The series is pricier than others, but they really do work well! Thanks, jetboil!
