Widesea Widesea Camping Cookware Outdoor Pot Pan Cooking Equipment Heat Exchange Desigh for Hiking Backpacking

I used this last weekend. It was really great, the bottom heat retainer/enhancer feature worked really well. I boiled water quickly and the cup was large enough for a decent cuppa.

Here's the short version:- it's anodized aluminum - not as feather weight as titanium, but still very light - the stated weight is 290 g / 10.2 oz (I'll weigh this once my digital scale comes in)- it is one of the relatively few lightweight backpacking pots that offer heat exchange (HE), which should - in theory - shorten boil time- to test this theory, I used a SOTO Windmaster canister stove: from room temp water at about 70 F, it took less than 1' 30" to bring the water to a rolling boil in my kitchen with an ambient temperature of 70 F. Outside, with a brisk wind, ambient temp of 68 F, and a crude wind screen, it took 1' 55" to bring the water to a rolling boil.Not bad.Of course the Windmaster sounds like a F-15 fighter on take off, but you only have to put up with the roar for less than 2 minutes. Or, if you have the luxury of time and want to be a bit more civilized, you can simply turn the stove down and let it heat up more gradually - and more quietly.Additionally, a wind screen can further help decrease boil time. Check YouTube for reviews and DIY projects and safety considerations.All in all, my initial impression is pretty favorable. If I have more time, I'll try to write a more detailed review.In brief, I would (for now) unhesitatingly recommend this stove kit.

Awesome product. Boils water just as quick , if not faster than the jetboil when using the pocket rocket 2, for half the price. Other pros include, ability to use over a fire, able to hold an 8once canister of isobutane, super lightweight!Cons, no measurement markers, however the smaller pot is just slightly larger than 2cups, so it’ll work good enough for dehydrated food pack measuring !

Great camping cooking pots for 1-2 people. Boils enough water for 2 cups of coffee, or one meal. Foldaway handles work well. Two size options / smaller pot as a lid also works well. Mesh drawstring bag for transport keeps pots contained. Design promotes quick heating and effective cooking, even in windy conditions. Negatives: silicone handles twist on the handle, and get water into them (hard to dry!). When transporting small pot is not secured to larger pot so rattles if not packed with softer items in/around it. Easy to burn food to the bottom of the pan!

I bought this cup for its windscreen base to use with my MSR Pocket Rocket pro stove. I just cut three slots into the base plate and insert my stove legs up into the windscreen fins. That mod makes for a great wind resistant stove kit. My only complaint is that the cup is slightly larger and heavier than I would have liked, since I only use it to make a cup of coffee in the morning. I don't have any plans to use the top cup, but it is well made also.
