I am not one to lavish praise. I have to tell you, the Vargo Decagon that I have just received is impressive. I just opened the package, filled the stove with fuel and lit it, within 2 min. it had primed and blossomed nicely. With a home made wind shield surrounding the stove I boiled 1 liter of tap water in about 5 min. rough timing,
didn't think to time time to the second.
I live at 6,000 feet. Boiling water here
is no mean feet, 25 miles West of here that is now a challenge. I have been hiking, climbing and camping the Colorado Mountains for a very long time, 50 years or so, I have seen a lot of designs come and go, this design is a clear and clear winner. Thank you for a fantastic product. I'll be using it this weekend at 12,000 feet on a fishing trip. Just gotta love it, don't you!
