Wow so I’m incredibly pumped about this pot... I wasn’t able to get handsy with it at the REI near me so I had to order it. i was ready for anything. But man it’s exactly what I was looking for. It’s the perfect size for a mountain house and a cup of coffee. With the bail, the handles, lid and bag I swear it’s lighter then the tiny box it comes it. Fits in the bottle holder on my pack. And most importantly people I can fit a 110g isopro canister and my POCKET ROCKET 2 with mucho room to spare for a piece of sponge or small towel and a mini or full size bic! And for the LID haters. I don’t know if I got lucky or they made the lid larger or what but it fits just fine. I’m tapping all over the lid while closed and wiggling it and I can’t find anything weird about the way it fits. If you tip the pot over it’ll come off other then that the lid stays put. Love this pot. Solid purchase. Makes me want to hike somewhere cool and make some Ramen..ha
I bought this to complete my survival cook set. It works great. I like the addition of the bail handle as compared to some other cups with mug style handles only. It would be nice if TOAKS engineered indentations into the brackets that hold the bail handle so it would "lock" into the upright position. As of now, the handle stays in the up position by friction only. Over time & use this may wear away. Only time will tell. FYI- for those interested, this pot fits perfectly around the Nalgene 38 oz. stainless steel bottle!
I've been using this pot for a few years now and it's proven itself to be pretty sweet. As others have noted it’s perfect for solo trips - enough capacity for a good-size meal but is still compact, lightweight, and durable. A nice touch is how the raised oz and ml markings are visible from the interior of the pot - most other pots don’t have any markings at all, or are only on printed the outside (which unless the pot is clear, IMHO doesn’t do a whole lot of good). It's also a good size as a drinking cup. And in the stove-nesting department, for those who are using alky stoves this is the perfect diameter to snugly fit a homemade tuna-can or cat-can type stove. When I first got this, I thought the mesh stuff sack was kind of a waste and was prepared to chuck it. But since the lid fits loosely (which is an asset as it makes it easier to lift the lid when cooking to be able to check what’s going on), you actually need to use the stuff sack to keep everything together in your pack. An earlier reviewer noted some issues with the sack shedding bits of stuff - I didn't have this issue so I'm wondering if maybe that reviewer maybe had a defective sack? Anyway, spring for the extra $4 to get the bail handle over the 750 ml version without it. You’ll be happy you did.
Super light and durable. 750ml is a in my opinion the perfect size if you would like to only carry one pot/cup. It's large enough to boil the water you need for a dehydrated meal, but small enough to use as a drinking cup for tea/soup/coffee etc. The bail is kind of cool and you can remove it. Quibble: the fold out mug-style handles are too short. I don't really understand why they're designed this way. Is it to save weight or material? I don't know. I would prefer the fold out handle to be more like a pot handle than a mug handle. Unless your fingertips can endure more heat than a normie like me, you'll need to use a little towel/shirt/cloth to hold the handles while you remove it from your stove to pour.
I got the 750ml pot.... Just big enough for one hefty meal, can still easily feed two in emergency situations. Now with that said I suggest anyone looking for cookware for do a quick review of metals. If you understand how Titanium heats then this darling piece of cookware is straight out of camp heaven. It is light, has all the right features and allows you to cook right on the fire or hang it. Cools off extremely fast and cleans easy!!!!!! This little guy just became a one in all. Cook food, boil water, eat straight from it, drink straight from it, hot or cold like an oversized mug and pack stuff in it with everything cleanly tucked away. Last a+ feature is tie it to the same line as your food and send it up, all your food and cooking needs are safe!
Toaks Titanium is great for a solo hiker. The bail handle can be great for picking the pot off the burner when hot. My only issue is the diameter of the pot itself. I like to store my cook system inside and a standard 8oz isobutane canister or my jetboil stove doesn't fit inside. I moved to the 1100 and for the added few ounces, I get a pot, pan, and more efficient storage for the complete cook system.
I struggled with what size. This is perfect for boiling enough water for three cups of hot beverages or enough hot water for a meal. The handles stayed cool to the touch. Great value.
I used the pot when I thru-hiked the AT in 2021. Was absolutely amazing and it took a beating and kept on cooking. Spent alot of time cooking on campfires so the bailing handle came in useful when making a tripod out of sticks. I still have it and continue to use it. I carried my camp stove and some of my more fragile cooking ingredients in it as well.
This is just as expected. Lightweight, the bail handle is nice. One recommendation would be to have a small pour spout on it..water would still heat well with the lid but it would be easier to pour from it.
Picked this up as a companion kettle for my toaks coffee mug, which by the way nests inside of this perfectly. It's a pretty compact pot, but still fits on my Pocket Rocket stove and is sturdy. I'm honestly pretty casual when it comes to cooking on the trail. I just use this as a kettle for boiling water for coffee and freeze dried dinners, and for eating oatmeal out of for breakfast. For those purposes, it's perfect, and 750ml is more than adequate for that type of cooking. I do like that you can slide the little triangle handle on the lid to lock it in an upright position so you don't burn your hands checking the water. Also, while the large carry handle looks neat, it's honestly pretty useless/redundant and I will probably end up taking it off. The side handles are just better in every way for carrying this around.
