Comments about GSI Outdoors Pinnacle Base Camper Cookset - Large:
Everything works like it should, though I have two cautions:
Fold OUT the handles on the large pot when cooking....the plastic will melt onto the pot!
If you are using the lids for straining noodles...it will take some talent since the lids do not latch onto the pot.
Other than that....these work great!

Comments about GSI Outdoors Pinnacle Base Camper Cookset - Large:
I've been using these pot almost every weekend for about 6 months while car camping. I needed large pots to feed 4-6 people and didn't want any extra weight.
The 3 and 5 liter pots are perfect- durable non-stick surface, strainer built into the lid, sturdy handles. A little wear shows on the non-stick surface of the bigger pot because the handle attachments rub again the small pot when nested, but it doesn't really affect the cooking surface and you could use a cloth to protect the surface.
The cutting board protects the cooking surface when nested and is useful and sturdy, but I usually bring a bigger one as well since we car camp.
The fry pan is too small to be useful and will melt the lid.
Other reviews have complained that the lids melt easily. The lids are plastic; do not set them on a hot burner and they won't melt. I had no problem for months until I tried to use the fry pan, which will melt the lid.

Got to use this for the first time on a weekend outing with my son. We were well fed and the kit worked like a champ. Used in conjunction with the Dualist kit, life was good. One word of caution, the aluminum in thin compared to my kitchen pots (iron and stainless) so you will need to manage your stove output. No need to crank the heat unless boiling water or heating soup. All in all, for light backpacking/car camping this set will serve you well.
Would recommend to a friend.
