Comments about Jetboil 1.5 Liter Cooking Pot:

I own the Jetboil Personal Cooking System and I love it. I purchased the 1.5 liter cooking pot to enlarge the variety of meals I could prepare with my Jetboil while backpacking and camping.

The required pot stabilizer and support system needed to use this with the jetboil burner is very poorly designed. The metal wings continuously get caught in the pot's flux ring and it pulls it off the stove while the burner is on. This creates a very hazardous situation.

While I have not experienced the difficulty with the lid mentioned by other reviewers, I do have the same issue with the hot spot in the center of the pot. I thought the flux ring would have eliminated this problem but it doesn't seem to make that much difference.

In my opinion this pot is a very expensive option compared to conventional, flat-bottomed cookware that is readily available.

Comments about Jetboil 1.5 Liter Cooking Pot:

I have used this stove with the original Jetboil burner but find it lacking. I noticed the the heat is generated from the center and curls out to the sides. I now use my old Superfly and the heat curls from the outside in and my boil time has increased. With the original Jetboil stove, I modified the pot holder to lower the pot and increase boil time by 2 minutes (from 6 minutes down to 4 minutes (give or take)). With my Superfly, my boil time average is 3 minutes. Both boil time was with 1L of water.

Took it to Desolation recently and people were amazed at how fast the water boiled using the Superfly. I was able to bake a desert using this setup. Superfly does allow to simmer but one still has to be mindfull of it though. Over all, the pot works great with the MSR Superfly and the prongs do not get caught in the flex ring which is another reason I modified the pot holder for the Jetboil stove.

Conclusion, the pot sucks with Jetboil stove but works great with other wider burner stoves. With either stove unit, it all packs into the pot fine. As for the Lid being difficult to put on, common complaint, as long as you flip it upside down when cooking with the pot, it should go back on with a little bit of effort when all is said and done with the meal.

Comments about Jetboil 1.5 Liter Cooking Pot:

My gear style is actually "Comfort Driven Minimalist."

I'd like to mention that this pot fits perfectly on top of the Pocket Rocket and SnowPeak GigaPower stoves, and just "OK" on the Dragonfly stove. Works great when held above a Trangia burner, too. You do not have to use the funky little Jet Boil stove. Use the stove you already have, but with this pot.

It boils astonishingly fast, at part throttle.

Comments about Jetboil 1.5 Liter Cooking Pot:

I paired this cookware with a white gas MSR Simmerlite - what a great combination! No hot spots in the middle, superb efficiency (plus can use a windscreen as long as the neoprene doesn't touch it - singes), no significant temperature or altitude issues (along with the typical white gas characteristics). Unbelievably stable since the Simmerlite fins "lock" on to the flux ring after a bit of "flexing adjustment" to open up the slots just a bit. Works like it is made for it. Best of BOTH worlds. Only issue is the darned lid shrinking - that kept me from the highest rating.

Comments about Jetboil 1.5 Liter Cooking Pot:

Good system overall. I do not have the problem that is described about the lid. As long as you flip the lid so that the round part is facing inwards when cooking then you are fine. If you do not when you are cooking the lid gets sucked in and warped but when it cools down it should fall back into its original shape which then you can place the lid back on the pot. I have not noticed a problem with heat dispersement on the bottom of the pot. I have taken this system on numerous backpacking trips with no issues. I have cooked steaks, vegetables, boiled water and noticed nothing but then again I have had this pot for quit sometime. One thing that I did do was compare boiling time with what was written in a recent magazine article and my boiling time was much faster so perhaps something has change on the new pots as oppose to the older models.

Comments about Jetboil 1.5 Liter Cooking Pot:

I took my brand new jetboil pot to my Dolly Sods backpacking trip this weekend. I have been using th original jetboil cup for years and loved it. I though having a pot would allow me to cook other food other than hot water based stuff. After the first use, the lid cannot be put back on to the pot anymore. (I put the lid loose on top of th pot while cooking a steak.) It seems other jetboil pot owners have similar experience of the problem [...]. If the lid cannot be put back on, then I cannot put the fuel canister and the stove in it to form a self contained system. I hope jetboil will address to this problem ASAP.

Comments about Jetboil 1.5 Liter Cooking Pot:

The stove and cups are great for boiling water; and cooking in the cup; the pot is extremly difficult to use; the center gets to hot; the outside not hot enough. You can't move it around to get the heat to distrubite because of the fins. And the fins catch on the holder when you move it off and on.

Comments about Jetboil 1.5 Liter Cooking Pot:

Very durable cookware by jetboil. The weight of the product is unnoticable when in your pack and plenty of room for essentials, spices, food, sporks and so on. Somewhat leaves left over food on the surface, but with a little water and mild soap, comes right off! Would recommend for others that are not ultralighters! like meself, go big or go home!

Comments about Jetboil 1.5 Liter Cooking Pot:

I use the pot for hot water based meals like ramen and freeze dried foods. Didn't have the stability issues like most people because I wasn't in too much of a hurry. It cooks unevenly because the heat comes straight to the middle...hence why I use it for water meals. Overall, it will do what it needs to, but it's not going to make a great steak or omelet.

Comments about Jetboil 1.5 Liter Cooking Pot:

When I took a group of teenagers on a llama backpacking trip in the Olympic Mountains, I used this with the Jetboil accessories and common brand propane/butane fuel and the water boiled quicker than I've ever seen. I only boiled water and didn't seal the lid, so I didn't have any problems with getting the lid off or uneven heat disbursement. I did have problems sealing the lid for transport. It reminded me of those storage containers where you have to seal all but one corner, then pull and fight to get that one corner sealed. I don't remember how well the lid stayed on after I finally got it tight. My biggest complaint would be that the bottom is almost impossible to clean after setting it in river sand. We never did get the dirt all out of the grooves. I would also like a spout formed into the pot rim to make water pouring easier, but overall, this was the easiest system I've used for quickly boiling water.
