It's also a multi fuel so I can burn kerosene where they do not have white gas. The Dragonfly simmered great, but the Dragonfly has a very CHEEZY weld on the bottom and regular use caused my 100 dollar Dragonfly to fail early on. I hate crap gear. The cannister stoves work great and do have a regulated flame. The problem is they focus the flame on a very small area and you'll carbonize anything in that area. There is a cannister/multifuel stove that has the more functional large stove surface.
