Article Summary:
Out of 17 stoves we tested, the Clikstand S-1 alcohol stove was one of the four best performers in terms of boil time, fuel efficiency, and ease of cooking. The four-piece pot stand/burner holder is easy to assemble, and as the name suggests, the center section simply clicks into place. The components are made of stainless steel, and weigh a little more than aluminum stove setups, but are far more durable and long lasting. An elegantly made aluminum windscreen fits on three small extensions from the pot stand to protect the flame/pot interface. The Clikstand S-1 alcohol stove is sold with a Trangia burner, which works very well with the Clikstand, but the Trangia burner is heavy at 3.9 ounces. To offset the weight of the pot stand/burner holder, I recommend using an aluminum alcohol burner, which saves around 3.5 ounces. Overall, I was very impressed by the Clikstand S-1 alcohol stove's design, durability, and ease of use.
