"Lightweight And Durable" 06/07/12

I love my MSR pots. I use them with my MSR Whisperlite. Also sometimes over the fire. Wipe clean every time. Non stick. If ur looking for something that is lightweight and durable. These are the pots for you.

"Lightweight NON STICK" 05/07/12

These pans weigh half what my old ones do and the non stick coating is absolutely amazing. My old pans stuff would stick in them and be impossible to get out. I made (burnt) bacon in these new ones and it cleaned RIGHT OUT. So convenient.

"Great Pot Set" 01/21/12

These are great, lightweight pots that should last a long long time. The detachable handle is a nice touch, and seems to be solid enough I wouldn't worry about it snapping or pieces breaking off. I wish they could have designed this to be able to have the handle clamp the lid on the smaller pot as well as the large one.

"Great cookware! Love the detachable handle" 01/05/12

We just got these pots to replace old, scratched ones. We had the same set from MSR but the older version, and we love this one! The old ones had a much worse handle that you couldnt attach to the pots, and this one can be easily changed from one put to another and held while cooking, which is great! The only downside is that these pots dont have grooves on the bottom to prevent them from sliding around on a stove, but its not a big deal if there is no wind. The older MSR pots had grooves to prevent this. All in all a great set that fits snugly into itself and comes with a potholder/trivet cloth.

"Easy to use, easy to clean." 10/22/11

I've used these for backpacking or just base camping. The set works well for both. I just take one pot for the backpacking. I've found them easy to clean and maintain in good shape. I'm going to buy a set for my son for Christmas.

"Great pots for heating up some camp chow" 08/11/11

The 2.5L pot is pretty useful for most of the things I cook/heat up at camp, but the 1.5 L is not as useful to me and is usually used to cool off water that I'd boiled for future drinking.Just FYI, the MSR Dragonfly fits in the 2.5 L alright, but won't fit into the 1.5 L. Not a big deal for most, but for those with the Dragonfly and want to pack compactly, this little bit of info might come in handy.

"Non-Stick, Lightweight Cookware" 03/08/11

Purchased this cookware set to use during a 3-day adventure to Fort Jefferson. I was impressed with how light this set was and how easily it cleaned up. Loved the non-stick surface.

"Well built and light... great for a weekend warrior like me!" 03/07/11

I've used this set during some extended hikes. They are very compact and have a feel of high quality. They are well worth the price and should serve anyone well for years.

"enouth to serve your next outdoor meal" 05/02/10

What can you say about a pot? They're just really lightweight, the pot handle once in place is really strong and is multi-functional. It fits both pots, secures the lid while traveling and you don't have to carry a separate pot handle. The small deep dish plate nests perfectly in the 2.5L pot and protects the nonstick coating from scratches. The 1.5L pot holds your cooker or other equipment as needed. It's a nice combo with an acceptable price tag.
