Gold Armour 17 Pieces Camping Cookware Mess Kit Backpacking Hiking Outdoors Gear - Lightweight Cookset, Compact, Durable Pot Pan Bowls, Essential Camping Accessories Equipment Gear (Blue)

I bought this set to give to my 10 y.o. son who loves camping with me. I was blessed to be gifted a MSR "Blacklite" set some years ago which has served me very well and I offer here as a comparison. Granted, I have augmented my kit with personal touches, but it is lightweight, super-functional, and easy to stow.In my Blacklite set there is a skillet, lid, large saucepan, small saucepan, gripper handle, mesh tote, washcloth, plastic bags (with ties), ceramic coffee mug (late addition), utensil set, disposable lighter, and MSR Pocket Rocket. The entire thing weighs in at 1325g. Eliminate the ceramic coffee mug and it drops to 938g. Overall dimensions are just under 8" diameter by 3 5/8" high.The Gold Armor set, by comparison, includes the tote, skillet, saucepan, lid, two plastic cups/bowls, utensils, loofah, utensil tote, caribiner, ladle, bamboo spoon, mini-stove, and flint/striker. All of this fits into a space of about 6½" diameter by 4" high and weighs just 663g.The utensils are handy if you do not already have a camp set. They fold in half and have detents and sliders to help keep them locked in place so you don't stab yourself folding a fork over into your perfectly medium campfire steak. The mini-stove has a piezo starter (my MSR does not, hence the lighter) which I find to be a very convenient feature. Side-by-side it folds up more compact than the Pocket Rocket, but isn't quite as stable. The upside is that it is a good size for the cookware it accompanies. It does not burn as hot as the Pocket Rocket, but does appear to burn more evenly.The caribiner has a threaded security nut, but is otherwise pretty ordinary. The flint and striker are a nice addition if the piezo fails or if you're doing cub scout campfire drills with toilet paper rolls and drier lint... which actually works quite well if you do it correctly.And to be perfectly honest, the thing I like most about this set is the bamboo rice ladle. I would seriously like to have a couple more of these for in my packs.

Removed 1 star only because it’s impossible to get stuck food off of these pans. They warp and buckle under intense heat which is how they’re meant to be used in the first place which isn’t ideal. In a camping situation it becomes really hard to clean them without running waterAll the other accessories are amazing! This is a great all-inclusive Kit for first time campers but if you can afford something better I would recommend it.

Great value, has everything you need and more! I love backpacking, however most of my friends aren’t as into it as me. I took this cook set out one night with 3 of us and it’s big enough to make a good meal and has multiple pieces of collapsible silverware to use so everyone had a utensil. The pot and pan are powder coated I think, so you can scrape the bottom and sides of them without worrying about scraping anything off into your food, or scratching them up. This kit also includes a nifty stove that you just screw on to an iso-butane propane fuel container. The stove folds out to hold a pot, and has its own igniter on it so getting it lit to boil water is a breeze. Highly recommend this to any backpacker, even if you don’t need all of the items you can take what you need, and then if you end up getting a nicer set down the road you can have this to let friends use.

The whole kit is fantastic. The only downside is that the camping stove with piezo ignition does not fit on any propane can I could find... at least not in California. I'd recommend a more Universal type that fits all because it's just a paperweight to me. It good for a free bonus though there should be a list of cans it can fit.

Like this compact camping cookware set.It is basic but really fits a lot in a small light weight set that all fits nicely and efficiently in its own little bag. It came with a mini stove I have not tried out yet but everything seems to be useable and it will not take up much space in your go bag or camping gear. The seller is professional and emailed me to confirm my receipt and satisfaction. I’m pleased to this point and, though I have not gotten to test it all out yet, it is as stated so I am ready to go.

First impressions with this are really good. I’ve tested a few things and all of it works perfectly. I can’t quite figure out how to pack it all back in there together haha! But I shed the spork, bowls, and ladle. I will not use them so set them to the side. The carabiner is the cheapest thing I’ve ever seen but I always saw that as an extra anyway. The rest of the kit, which is what I needed, seems to be really great. I’m very happy with what I have.

Like that it's small an portable. Well thought out. It needs a small spatula. Everything fits back into the handy bag.

Camping set was purchased for my Bro in law for his birthday. He and his wife have camped all over the world and i liked the fact camping set is compact and would be easy to travel with plus the addition of the gas burner head for cooking. Set looks to be well made and i am sure that they will push it to it's limits (when they use it i will give an update). Set arrived on time and well packaged.

Le kit est parfait pour commencer le camping!!! Beau bon pas cher pour le camping sauvage
