Jetboil Stash Cooking System — Specs & Analysis
Manufacturer specifications, compared against every other cooking gear in our database. We do not test gear in the field — we measure, verify, and compare.
The Stash is Jetboil's ultralight entry. At 200g for the complete system (stove + pot + lid), it's the lightest integrated cooking system available. The FluxRing heat exchanger boils 500ml in just over 2 minutes. Everything nests inside the 0.8L pot.
Who Is the Jetboil Stash Cooking System Best For?
Bikepackers who want fast boiling water with minimal weight. If that describes your riding style, the Stash Cooking System should be at the top of your shortlist. It sits in the Cooking Gear category alongside 17 other products we track.
How It Compares
At 200g and $165, the Stash Cooking System is 190g heavier than the lightest option in this category (the Sea to Summit Alpha Light Spork at 10g). The most budget-friendly option is the Sea to Summit Alpha Light Spork at $10.
The price-to-weight ratio comes in at $83 per 100g — a premium price point, but you're paying for quality, materials, and design that justify the investment for serious bikepackers.
What We Like
- +200g complete system — lightest integrated
- +Boils water in 2.5 minutes
- +Everything nests inside the pot
- +FluxRing is fuel-efficient
Watch Out For
- −0.8L pot is small for meals
- −Poor simmer control
- −Pricey for a minimal system
The Bottom Line
We haven't scored the Jetboil Stash Cooking System, and neither has anyone else we can cite. It's here for its verified specifications and dimensions, which is what the fit tools run on — a score is an editorial judgement, and we don't hand one out until someone has a basis for it. What this page can tell you is measured: 200g, $165, and how both sit against every other cooking gear product we track.

Specifications and dimensions come from the sources listed above. Where a page draws on first-hand riding, it says so.
What it packs down to
Jetboil publishes a packed size of 4.5" x 5", which is 1.3 litres as a stuff sack. Of the 55 bags we track that publish a capacity, 45 have room for it and 10 do not.
Volume is computed from Jetboil's own packed size, treating a two-dimension figure as a stuff sack. Bag capacities are the makers' published figures, not ours — 12 of the bags we hold dimensions for publish no capacity and are left out of the count rather than assumed. A stuff sack does not reshape itself, so read the headroom as room to spare rather than a guarantee it goes in easily.
How it compares
Against the 18 cooking gear products we hold published specs for.
At 200g the Stash Cooking System is lighter than 5 of 17 alternatives we track. The category median is 111g.
At $165 it undercuts 1 of 17 of them, against a median of $43. That works out at $83 per 100g — above the $49 median for cooking gear products.
Weight and price come from published specifications. Cost per 100g is a blunt measure — it rewards light gear and says nothing about durability or whether the thing works — so treat it as one input, not a verdict.
