    I like it! I have about 5 or 6 of them and a few diffrent camp stoves. I enjoy rebuilding and restoring old lamps, lanterns, stoves and the occasional kerosene heater.
    Looks like a new set of mantles and a good cleaning and you should be in business. Nothing like sitting on the porch on a cool fall night reading a book by lantern light.

    Got 2 or 3 of them. Along with the dozen 200 A's and the 220's I've accumulated over the years. Great to have around.

    I like them, although they are way out on the new end of my lantern spectrum.

    Can be a little exciting to light. I try to get mine lit on low pressure, then pump it up to where it runs happily.
