A genuine do-anything stove, that’s the WhisperLite Universal from MSR. It runs on both gas and liquid fuel (petrol and similar). It’s a bit bigger and heavier than something like a PocketRocket, but this is the reliable stove for anyone who wants to be sure of fuel anywhere, in winter, on longer trips where you actually want to cook rather than just reheat.
The hybrid WhisperLite Universal gives you the convenience and simmering control of a gas stove, then switches easily to liquid fuels for longer trips, cold weather and international travel. The AirControl™ technology is what makes it stand out, delivering strong performance across all the fuels it takes. It’s also the lightest stove in its class for output and size, with excellent stability and easy maintenance.
