Its low center of gravity and broad legs make it a sturdy and solid stove. This makes it a great stove for backpacking groups, base camps, kayaking, and Arctic camping.

The Optimus Nova is different from other liquid fuel stoves that are plagued by unburned fuel remaining in the fuel line or the nozzle. This can be solved by flipping the bottle.

It's a typical stove with an inbuilt burner that is attached to a body which anchors three fold-out support legs. The pump is located on top of the fuel line, the generator loop wraps around the inlet and the flame spreader sits over. The burner itself is a low-speed flame type which helps it to be less affected by winds.

It is a nice feature that it can be used with a canister of propane or isobutane, making it a multi-functional little cooker. It is easy to simmer with isobutane and propane, and it burns all fuels at a decent rate. However when using white gas, the stove can be a little slower.
