Just like most things on my new purchase (Swanson 28) this is in excellent condition.
Does anyone have experience using one?
yep, had one on my UFO 34 that I have been using for the last 9 years. Trick to lighting is to turn on the burner for 5 second to let a bit of metho pool, which you then light to heat up the burner. Once it is almost out turn the knob on again and the burner should then be hot enough to evaporate the metho and keep it alight. Is not as hot as a gas stove but they work fine.

Great pieces of kit. Like Ilenart said, do NOT turn the knob until its almost out.
You'll know straight away when you get it wrong 
.
Edit: I've still got it, don't want to get rid of it.
I've got one one my 2004 Mustang. It's never been used. Ive always used the outside BBQ.
More of an internal consideration rather then the cooking medium itself.

Is it a pressurized metho oven ?
Ive got one too on my Martzcraft 35. I love the fact theres no risk of getting blown up or gassed. And a not obvious advantage is you can get metho from the tiniest ports unlike gas. Correct about not turn knob on too soon, a huge unexpected flame reaching to ceiling teaches that lesson!

Another overlooked point in metho's favour is that it is water soluble so in case of fire water will dilute and extinguish the fire.

That Adams 31 that sank up near Pig Island was from a metho stove fire. The metho would have been long gone by the time she burnt to the waterline.
Not sure if it's exactly the same with metho as kero but from my trials with rebuilding the burners on my stove the first step is to quickly depressurise the tank and then deal with the flare up.

Well Duhhhh, obviously if the fire had taken such a old that nothing would save the boat, As the old adage goes goes, Fire is a good servant but a bad master, the moral being don't leave any flame unattended.
