Brunton vapor-AF stove review

I needed a camp stove that would burn several types of fuel as well as be compact enough it will fit in a Pelican 1500 with the rest of my camp kitchen.
After narrowing my search to small backpacking stove I couldn't decide on butane canisters or liquid fuel.... then I found th Brunton Vapor all fuel.

they retail from $150+ but I found one online for $118 shipped. I also decided to replace my cookset and ordered the 3 piece vapor cookset.

I tried the stove out last night at home, it is very easy to figure out and burned very hot very fast.

It was a bit noisy but for a full power stove I expected it. I cooked a 1 lt pot of water and in about 3 minutes it was hot enough to use in my freeze dried stew. I am so far very impressed with this stove and I will post more info as I use it more.

Looks like a great multi-fuel stove. Do you have any pics of the cook set? I am in desperate need of a new one.

The cookset is backordered so I won't have it for another couple weeks. I found it on www.opticsplanet.com for less then $30 ! a pretty awesome deal for hard anodized teflon coated cookset.
MSR Also has some new cooksets just released but pretty spendy in my opinon, I did check them out at REI today and they are clones of GSI new dualist kit but 3 times the cost !!
