I am really happy with my Jet boil SOL. It works well at high altitudes and in cold weather. Also, as Koda said. It does seem flimsy to keep an eye on. If you could find a rig that is more stable, but gives the same performance than go for it! I actually love it because I can fit my iodine,hot cocoa, and fuel cans inside the cup portion which saves me some space. Good luck on choosing one! And let us know which one haha.

Jetboil SOL:
it worked much better on cold summer/fall mornings, there is an improvement in cold temp boil time but I still haven't tested it in cold winter camping conditions.

There was a thread discussing the relative merits of the jetboil and reactor last month on cascade climbers:

i used a sol titanium last spring until i melted it cause i didn't put starter water in when melting snow. it worked pretty well and is light. i recently bought the flash and i think it sucks, don't know if i just got a lemon or what but it's flame is pretty weak.
