I use  mess tin most off the time, but that one you are looking at is a cracker. Might get one myself.

To be honest it seems abit pricey for what seems to just be a couple of mess tins, a hexi burner and a pouch??  I have a few solid fuel systems but just ordered this http://www.amazon.co.uk/Aluminium-Camping-Alcohol-Burner-Bushcraft/dp/B006DUIPT4/ref=aag_m_pw_dp?ie=UTF8&m=A1AHD7IIF0L9NT (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Aluminium-Camping-Alcohol-Burner-Bushcraft/dp/B006DUIPT4/ref=aag_m_pw_dp?ie=UTF8&m=A1AHD7IIF0L9NT) as a first foray into an alcohol stove.
