    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

          Comments about MSR Base 2 Pot Set:

          I use the pots for year-round camping. When I started snow camping and needed an extreme cold weather stove, I bought these pots to compliment my MSR EGK EX stove.
          I like the fact that I can store my EGK EX stove and fuel line in the small pot. The pots are simple in design yet multifunctional. The strainer comes in really handy! The handle is/feels sturdy even with the pot full of stew.

          On a four day backcountry snow-camping trek I like to boil two packs of Top Ramen noodles and add frozen meatballs in the 2.5L pot and eat from it. I boil water with the 1.5L pot for the hot drinks to go with and after the meal!
          These pots are perfect in weight (For their size), sturdiness (Doesn't ding like titanium), and multifunctional (Lid has holes for straining).

            Comments about MSR Base 2 Pot Set:

            I have use this pot set just once. My opinion is that it boils super fast, is very light, I can accommodate the MSR Whisperlite Internationale inside the 1.5 L pot (without a fuel bottle), and it is easy to clean.

            So for me, it is excellent!

              Comments about MSR Base 2 Pot Set:

              This was an impulse buy and a splurge- but it's my favorite tool, since I am an avid cook. It's $15 less than the MSR Quick 2 Pot Set [$]- but the same size- though 2oz. more in packing weight. It's non-stick- so you can just wipe it clean. The handle stays cool and so does the lid top, which functions to keep the set closed when not in use. Compared to other cooksets, it's handle is the most comfortable and doesn't move around, even though it's detachable.I was able to boil 4 eggs comfortably on the MSR Pocket Rocket without any instability problems and without burning myself.A fuel can nests inside, and my Snopeak ti plates fit nicely to the outside. All this fits right inside my Sea To Summit Folding bucket. It's larger, than other sets, but lighter. If you are the camp chef, this is worth it.
