By Chaplain from Chicago, il on 11/02/2009 Pros: 21 liter cannot be made, Durable, Hot Surface Best Uses: Campgrounds, Day Trips, Survival, Trips, Winter Camping Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: titanium is a misnomer. It is actually Ti coated aluminum. If you want Ti ware for light weight this is actually aluminum with Ti nonstick coating. Use only plasti utensils or the coating will get scratched
By rather be in the woods... from chicago, il on 09/26/2009 Pros: Easy to clean, Fast Start, Light Best Uses: Backcountry Camping, Campgrounds, Lightweight Backpacking, River, Winter Camping Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: this pot amazes me. seriously speeds up the stove and boiling water. I must have annoyed my husband somewhat by constantly pointing out how fast the water was boiling. Super purchase. seriously will extend the life of your fuel canister. My only gripe is the handle clips right onto the interior lip of pot, so after time the nonstick surface will possibly get scratched up - not so good for nonstick. But I would buy this pot again and it's going to be my go to pot for every backcountry trip.
Pots Work Well With Easy Modification By Bill from Fort Collins, CO on 09/23/2009 Best Uses: Backcountry Camping Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This pot and its 1.7L brother worked well for us on a seven day canoe trip in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and on a five day backpack in Glacier NP. To make the pots work on our MSR stoves (Simmerlite and WindPro)we used a Dremel tool to cut away the flat ring around the heat exchanger at the points where the stove's pot support contacted it. This made the pot make firm contact with the stove's pot support and put the burner up inside the heat exchanger. The two pots nest well. Good value and good performance.

misleading: the pot is anodized aluminum By ecotropics from northern michigan on 06/16/2009 Best Uses: Backcountry Camping, Campgrounds, Day Trips, River, Survival, Trips, Winter Camping Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: this is a good value for a lightweight cooking pot, but according to the box, the pot itself is anodized aluminum, and the nonstick surface has titanium in it. i'm not unhappy to have bought it, but i feel that it was mislabeled.
By Canoe trekker from Austin, TX on 06/08/2009 Best Uses: Backcountry Camping, Campgrounds, Day Trips, River, Survival, Trips, Winter Camping Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is a great size, lightweight, and the non-stick surface is a huge plus. They even thought to put silicone tabs on the removable handle so it would not scratch the interior. But I think the fins that make it absorb heat so quickly may be difficult to clean if they get sooty.
Great Upgrade for Your Stove By Wavetrain from Portland, OR on 06/07/2009 Best Uses: Backcountry Camping, Campgrounds, River, Winter Camping Describe Yourself: Outdoor Professional What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This pot fits my old Coleman Peak1 Apex white gas stove - it boiled 1-liter at 65 degrees (700ft elevation) in 2:50 - turbocharching the older stove. So I think I'll keep that stove a while longer. It's big - but since I can fit my stove and the handle inside the pot, no net bulk gain. Non stick coating makes cleanup a snap. But be careful to avoid metal cooking utensils and steel wool when cleaning! Also, I don't want to think about cleaning a boil-over. If those heat exchangers got food in them, it could be grim.
