I've used this stove quite a bit and its no worse for wear. Mostly used to boil water for tea or make cowboy coffee, typically one liter of water. Thumb diameter dead fall branch provides all the twig size kindling, and larger fuel sticks needed. No wood processing other than breaking up a dead branch, minimal ash and coals produced.
My stove is stainless steel, (titanium available) and it does warp just a little during its first fire. Not enough to effect assembly or usability, but is noticeable when you disassemble and stack the flat pieces of stove. Photos show the minimal warping and that it has no effect on assembly or use.
Cook kit and canvas bag:

Emberlit assembled: Visible gap under right front is due to angled cut of stump, not the stove.

Disassembled and ash produced:

Not much to dispose of if you are a leave-no-trace advocate.
