    Valmet's stove is my favorite small stove. Domestic, I have been working for a company that has Valmet origin, I have visited the factory that made the stove, stove has low center of gravity and just perfect for one person use. Here some pictures: https://classiccampstoves.com/threads/valmet-test-trip.29050/

    AGM 20 coil burner is one I really like. I coined It Debby since it really put’s out for its small size. E483E206-0756-4EC1-9F16-27EF3951811E.jpeg

    You beat me to it!
    Monitor 17B - not flash, not rare, not ancient. Just rock solid reliable.

    Trangia for sure. Quickly becoming my favorite stove of them all, not just of the small stoves.

    Only photos I have on my phone. Break time in the shop:

    +1 on the Trangia. When I play with stoves I use all sorts of pressure stoves, both kero and white gas. But when I actually NEED a small stove, I usually grab a Trangia. What’s not to like? Going to the coast where it is windy? No problem. Forgot a pot or utensil? Never, it is in the kit. Didn’t feel like playing around but just wanted a hot pot of soup or coffee? You got it. Forgot fuel? Just stop at any hardware or walmart. I am not a snow melter so I don’t need anything hotter.

    I like the Monitor Picnic stove but I really must get transit covers.

    Most of my stoves are my favorites, but a Trangia, sized for the outing, is always the first choice.

    A Trangia in a Clikstand is my favorite hiking stove.

    Well my Trangia 25 is one of my favorite stoves but I don't consider it or my eleventy one to be in the small class. Ironically I'm not really enamored with my 96 or 00 stoves. It's a toss up because I just finished my 8R kit and I have always loved my 210.
