The Soto Mika has so many O-rings that are points of failure. The O-ring of the fuel bottle pressure indicator failed, leaking fuel, and there is no replacement o-ring for it. Some forum posts from years ago wrote about receiving a replacement pump from Soto. However, Soto hasn't replied to me. The MSR dragonfly has very fine simmering control and is fully field serviceable with far fewer failures.

Thanks for the video, I bought one on impulse, have not received it yet, you just put my mind at ease.

If time to boil is important...this is the wrong shaped vessel for a stove of this power and a lot of heat is wasted. These stoves and not just this stove a broader base for cooking generally or boiling is better. Good video though. The other thing with testing is the red should be showing and this normally requires extra pumping...other stoves too need to be pumped up and some such as the MSR Dragonfly, the intensity of the burn diminishes as the fuel drops to about 100 mls or so. The Muka is a nice stove although it is a bit complex to appeal to a lot of people. Stoves such as the Dragonfly or the Optimus Nova can be completely stripped and rebuilt in a few minutes. The valve mechanism on this will last a long time but if it gets an issue, it isn't easy to rebuild. The generator is rated to 20L of fuel and you should really use shellite not gasoline/petrol. I have used unleaded petrol though and it does run well (unlike the Dragonfly or Nova) as the jet is not exposed. An exposed jet means the flame can dance on the jet and this will cause performance issues as it soots. The Muka though I really do like it. Good video.

Congrats on a very nice stove! You should let it bleed out all air (in "Air" position on dial) to depressurize the fuel bottle before opening. Thanks for sharing :)

Mine leaks on the pump and takes a lot of pumping to get to work.

The Muka stove is awesome when it works but its to complicated and there is so many things that can break on it and there is not always a replacement.
