Title: First NorthStar lantern I've owned
Product review: First, I like the NorthStar type lantern better than the old style bowl mantles. There is a larger surface area to burn and hence more light. This lantern works great and the self ignitor worked through a weekend camping trip without a hiccup. The only reason I only gave 4 stars vs. 5 is that the mantle seems like it is burning through faster than I would have liked after only a weekend worth of use. It's not ready to be replaced yet but the holes I'm seeing are more than I would have thought. Maybe this is a trade-off for the better lighting.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
