The ceramic non-stick interior is stellar at doing as advertised. Things really don't stick to it, even when the heat is cranked. I can fit most the rest of my cookware and camp kitchen on the inside of this no problem! My only gripe is the Talon handle, while it's lovely that I can switch it between many of the MSR products, it feels a bit flimsy when attached to the pot, could use more side to side stability.

Peeling after three days

Maybe I got a lemon but the pot I received is a piece of junk. It started losing it's non stick coating after the first use. I used only plastic utensils while cooking and the pot was primarily used for boiling water. I also brought a msr skillet on this trip and it looks like new. I thought ceramic was supposed to be stronger than your typical non-stick pan but this one sure wasn't. I do not recommend this pot.

One of my favorite peices of gear!

This pot is so incredibly nonstick it's amazing. It makes cleanup such a breeze! My ONLY slight gripe is the handle is not super stable, but I don't really mind it. This pot is also super light and weighs next to nothing.

This pot cooks quick and is easy to clean

The only drawback was the lid, if it had a better locking device when drain water after cooking pasta

MSR NEVER DISAPPOINTS

Used this all weekend in camp in the White Mountains to boil, cook simmer, mix and all the accompanying cleaning those activities create. Great product no complaints.

Love this pot

2 months ago

This is my 2nd purchase of this pot. I’ve worn out my first after 10 years. It’s so versatile from being great to melt snow on backcountry ski trips to making pasta dinner or warming burritos on woodland trips. Perfect for two person meals. Love the wind burner stove system. It’s been reliable at every elevation and wind conditions that I have been able to adventure to here in the Pacific Northwest. Light and packable. Love it!

Perfect like always

I wanted a slightly larger pot for easy stiring and more variability with options as I like to cook veggies. This is the absolute perfect size and has a nice handle/closure as well. It fits my dragonfly stove for easy packing and is quite and doesn't rattle. I love the simplicity in its design for moto camping and BTW would take this backpacking any day of the week for solo trips! Well done MSR.

Great for car camping

The ceramic finish cleans up easily with a minimum of soap and water. Set inside my frying pan, with a one-liter tea kettle inside, the whole assembly slides into an 8" high space in the camper van. Perfect size for preparing a 2- to 3-person meal.

Haven’t had the chance to use it a whole bunch, but it’s definitely a really good quality pot!
