Good Features
Have used this stove since I pretty much got into backpacking... which is a longer time then I'd like to admit. It can burn anything you would ever really want to burn (who wants to cook with diesel?) and its big burner head distributes heat real well.
Bad Features
Its heavy as sin, and for about 99% of most people's backpacking needs a compressed gas stove would be better. They're lighter, cheaper, don't need to be pumped and have less moving parts. |

Good Features
When you are lost in Greece this guy can handle whatever comes out of a gas station. This reviewer never really believed the "international" was anything more than a cool name, but on taking this stove abroad and off the beaten path the ability to handle gas really makes this guy worthwhile. Try tracking down canister stoves when you hitchhike into a two store village. Also everyone and their brother has one of these so getting spare parts is usually pretty easy if you are out on a popular Backcountry trail.
Bad Features
My pump leaks when it gets too full. No idea why, I found another one in a hut though so now im happy. And ya this guy is heavy, but what do you want from it? Not your choice for lite hiking or speed assaults. But if you want reliability, and a tough stove. This is it.

One of the greatest stoves ever designed. Better used for long duration trips or trips overseas or in areas where canisters may be hard to come by. |

Good Features
Excellent, efficient stove, that is relatively lightweight and easy to use. I have been using it for 8 years now and it has worked great. One of the most reliable stoves I have seen so far.
Bad Features
Takes a little bit of time to learn how to light (lighting fuel in pan, heating it up until its hot enough to burn the fuel instantly). Also, to get a consistent flame, you have to pump it occasionally. |

From Altrec:
For nearly two decades the versatile MSR WhisperLite™ Internationale™ has logged more miles than almost any other liquid fuel stove available today. The WhisperLite™ Internationale™ adapts to burning a range of fuels, including kerosene and diesel, but most backcountry and international travelers prefer the cleaner and consistent properties of MSR White Gas fuel. The Internationale™ features a simple and highly reliable design with a shaker jet self-cleaning valve for simplified maintenance while traveling through areas with less refined fuel sources. Over the years MSR modified their fuel pump with a simplified flame adjustment and a durable design. The stainless steel legs/pot supports fold down to fit easily inside most cooking pots. Liquid fuel stoves are an excellent choice for cooking in cold temperatures. Depending on altitude and temperatures, a twenty-ounce fuel bottle of MSR white gas will burn for a 110-minute average. - Suitable for burning diesel, kerosene and white gas
- Rugged stove construction consists of brass and stainless steel
- Compact profile folds down to fit inside most cooking pots
- Self-cleaning shaker jet removes grit and fuel deposits
- Recommended for travel through remote and cold regions
- MSR White gas boil time for 1 liter at sea level in 70F conditions: 3.5 min.
- Minimum configured weight: 11.5 oz. (330 g.)
- Packaged weight: 15.5 oz. (460 g.)
