REDCAMP 23 PCS Camping Cookware Set for Family, Compact & Folding Backpacking Cookset for 4-5 Persons, Anodized Aluminum Lightweight Camping Pots and Pans Set for Camping, Hiking and Picnic

Just used one time, the marks showed. Travel overseas now, won’t have time to exchanged !

I got the set with three pots, three lids, and one fry pan (plus a bunch of throw-away accessories). I like pots like these for hiking and car emergency kits. In any situation where staying longer than planned, ability to boil water is a huge plus. Good lightweight and inexpensive for this purpose.I have also liked Open Country 2 quart with teflon, but it's never available.Also useful to put hot foods, straight off the grill or fry pan, which would blister plastic storage. Butter, oil, and fats wash off much more easily than plastic, and they dry faster too.Of course you could just put food on a plate, let cool off, then put in ziplock or bread bag....What about glass, titanium, and stainless?Stainless options are appealing but considerably heavier, and usually a little more expensive.Glass can microwave but heavy, no handles, and can break.Titanium is uncessesarily expensive to me.

Things I like about the camping mess kit.All of the pans/pots are nested into each other.Eating utensils & bowls are included.Pots/pans are lightweight & easily fits on small camping stovesThe metal that the pans were made of did not melt or smoke when a fire was burning hotGood product

My wife wanted this for an emergency/aux camping cookware set. It is a very nice small set and has everything you would need. I only have one question: what is the foot-long braided nylon strap for? We can't figure it out. Thanks, Ed K

These are light weight, cook well, and big enough for two people, you can cook for more, just a little harder. You have to watch the handles and keep them from flipping back into space. My husband Dwayne paying attention and burnt one end of a handle. It still closes, so all is good, just added some character to it. But all around, it does well, and is small and tidy.
