Jetboil Minimo 3 Year long term Review

In this video I see if my opinions have changed in the three years since I purchased the Jetboil Minimo. Did it live up to expectations. Is it worth the price? I also time how long it takes to boil 0.5 litres of water and how much gas that boil took out of the gas canister.
All opinions expressed in this video are mine and mine alone.

Thanks for explaining why you shouldn't light a Jetboil with the pot in place. I assumed it was to avoid warping an unfilled pot, but never considered the effect of the flux ring.

Great review. I bought a Jobsworth X3 three years ago for under £30. My friend had the equivalent Jetboil. On the same camp both boiled water the same time. There was a problem with a batch that got recalled but the problem was sorted. I'm very happy with mine and is still going strong. Worth a look as is the OEX that has just been released for under £50.

Do you have any of the other cheaper alternatives to this stove that’s you could show us?

[@ItsaCampingThing]

Only the Jeboil Zip Stu...Maybe a generic cheap one from years ago in the loft. I have been looking at Alcohol stoves the past couple of days. But until I know the out come of my cars MOT tomorrow. Then I'm not out buying anything just yet. Is there one that interests you?

[@StuNotStew]

@@ItsaCampingThing i like the look of the oex solo or a mini trangia set. Fingers crossed the mot goes well 🤞🏻🚗 ⛺️ 🔥🥣

This is actually a great review, great job. I appreciate you. Im looking to buy one.

[@ItsaCampingThing]

Thank you for your kind words. As for the Jetboil Minimo. Then it's a great compact cooking stove and pot. Expensive for sure to begin with. But no need for a wind break and over a long period of time will save some money on gas. As it's super quick to get water to boiling point. From my experience of it. I would buy another one if I lost or if I ever broke it.

Thanks for the review. Going to start camping and bought one during a sale. Now I know it's a good buy 😁.

[@ItsaCampingThing]

Nice 1 Paul! Very thorough and informative review!

[@ItsaCampingThing]

Thank you....I saw that it was three years since my first video on it and figured that my opinions of it have indeed changed

[@davt8615]

[@sebastian_paul]

Great content my friend. Looking to get into wild camping and I have been looking at this stove for a while. This has really helped me make my mind up 👍

[@ItsaCampingThing]

Thats lovely to hear. Im glad to be of some help. I use my Minimo a lot and it's great for boiling water and cooking food. I hope you get on well with it.

[@sebastian_paul]

@@ItsaCampingThing thank you mate, appreciate that. Looking forward to testing it out.

[@ItsaCampingThing]

@@sebastian_paul Please let me know how you get on with it. Im taking mine out later this week for a summer camping trip

[@sebastian_paul]

@@ItsaCampingThing Amazing man! Will do for sure!

[@williamjohn6242]

Mate I just bought one but the lid seems lose

[@ItsaCampingThing]

Oh thats odd. Ive had mine a few years and its fits perfectly

[@MPjustaman]

Thanks

[@stevecochran9078]

I just ordered a Minimo on sale and every review I've watched seems to be telling me it's the best choice in the Jetboil line. I also bought the French press and utensil set too. That said, I'm an MSR whore, but I also need a liquid fuel stove, so that's how I'll scratch the MSR itch.

Very Nice video!
