Stove is working out great.  It is my first backpacking style stove, so I assume any challenges I have are common to all of them (which may or may not be true).

I'd love a slightly tighter seal between the stovepipe and the top of the stove, not sure how I can realistically do this, but it can get a little smokey. 

The top and bottom panel are a little heat warped, which makes it difficult to assemble.  I wish they'd heat them at the shop before they send them out to ensure they stick closer to the right shape.

It puts out a ton of heat, but when its out its out.  I've started stacking rocks under and around it to try to preserve some of the heat made.  This is just a new strategy of mine, no fault of the stove.

I do think I should get a spark arrestor for it, when it takes off it really gets blazing and I'm afraid a spark is going to land back on my tent.

Otherwise, my only complaint is that it gets too hot.  Its slick as sh*t for drying stuff out and staying warm.  Makes the tipi a really nice place to come back to or eat dinner in the rain.  Something bout a fire...
