The perfect stove
I would say yes! The variety of fuels types is spectacular! 90% of the time i use iso butane or propane, but the ability to convert is awesome. Quick cook times, good flame control. I also have a whisper light stove for colder weather and higher altitudes.

Unstoppable!
Got mine 5 years ago, for a multitude of expeditions to remote spots that would most likely force me to burn the worst fuels (like unleaded gasoline) in the craziest conditions.
I took it everywhere for the past 5 years, it worked with temperatures as low as -20ºC and as high as 45ºC, through wind, rain and ice, and even exposed to salt from the closeness to saltwater! Burned pretty much everything with it, and in the last trips I did I was forced to use almost exclusively unleaded gasoline, due to the remoteness. Still no signs of slowing down in performance, and no signs of deterioration. Melts snow super fast, heats up water in windy mountain tops with ease, super nice to cook...never failed me.
Amazing tool ready for any expedition.

Ok but I wanted it to be better....
I like the multi-fuel flexibly but when using white gas, which is why I bought it, the lighting, priming and minimal temperature adjustment makes it less amazing. After priming, the yellow flame burns wildly and sooty. I really wanted to like this stove more but my 30 yo Coleman white gas mini camping stove is easier to light and to adjust the flame but it is also bigger/heavier. At least with white gas, it's good for boiling water quickly. With fuel canisters, it is more adjustable but still more bulky than my other stove options.

Versatile flamethrower
I love this stove and the versatility of being able to use liquid fuel or canned. If you could add simmer control similar the Dragonfly stove I would give it 6 out of 5 stars.

Quiet! Simmers great.
Loved being able to use propane in my Universal! And it was so quiet! Here, pictured packed inside my packraft (along with tent, sleeping bag, kitchen, tarps, etc). Clearwater River, Alaska, 4-23-2022.

Excellent stove! MSR has done
Excellent stove! MSR has done it again :-) I love the fact that this stove is compatible with both fuel types. I can use the butane canisters for quick, easy fire up meals car camping. But when it is cold or I am on a longer extended backcountry trip the white gas option is best for me! Thanks MSR :-)

Awesome stove
I have several stove systems, msr, and jet oil. This stove covers all of them, letting you use a variety of fuels. With the iso butane fuel it will simmer foods very nicely! Being able to use white gas, unleaded, kerosene and isobutane means you will never be short on fuel. It took roughly 3 minutes to bring 2 cups of water to boil with the isobutane, and that was without the windscreen. If you are looking for a versatile stove that checks all the boxes I believe this is it

High quality stove. Fast, efficient, multiple fuel sources
This is part of my moto-camping setup. It fits inside my water pot. Worked the first time and every time. High quality. Love the option to use multiple fuels. Fast, efficient and can adjust the flame for low heat cooking because there is more to camp cooking than just boiling water.

MSR Universal Wind Resistant and Rugged!
So I've used ""bottle top"" style stoves for several years and while they are awesome for boiling water, I was finding myself frustrated enough by the effects of the wind that I wanted to try a flexible fuel line setup to solve that problem- and the MSR Universal delivered. In addition to being shielded from wind, the heat output also appears to be noticeably higher than the bottle top stoves I've used. Also gained awesome simmering capabilities for cooking fresh caught fish etc., and a more stable lower center of gravity. If you like to cook REAL food, need rugged dependability and the ultimate in fuel flexibility, buy a Universal. Considerations: larger packed size, (Fits nicely inside a 7 inch-ish pot) and with the isobutane setup you're looking at 10-ish ounces, but I'm cool with a weight penalty for the dependability. I pair the Universal with the two pot Alpine SS set. Very satisfied with this hardy setup!

Best multi fuel stove on earth!
Love the WhisperLite Universal. I prefer carrying this over my WindBurner in the colder temperatures. All on a personal preference out of fear than anything actually happening.

Light Weight Stove
Great stove for backpacking or car camping.
So small compared to what I used to have so it feels like a massive upgrade.

This stove is all you need for anything backcountry cooking
I brought this stove on my thru hike on the Israel National Trail. It was a 68 day trek and I used this stove every day with no fail. It held up perfectly in all weather conditions. I only used canisters but the option to possibly switch to a liquid hydrocarbon was comforting. Other people I was with even borrowed it for their cooking because the burner head was ideal for it. It worked perfectly at -1400 feet and just as well at 6,690 feet!

Flexible and reliable
This is a great stove. It is easy to switch between burning white gas and using canisters and is super reliable. Thanks, MSR!
