Just used it on a backpacking trip with my boyfriend. Perfect size for 2 people, likely 3. It is light. The lid has a lip it slides under to hold it in place. I did not use the strainer holes in the lid. The handle locks down over the lid, for storage in pack. I fit my stove, soap, scrubber, and could stored a few more items on the trail in it. Way better than the aluminum pot. I have not used the titanium pots, but they are extremely pricey.
This is a pretty great pot. Non stick is awesome. Unfortunately I damaged mine by thinking it was dishwasher safe. It is not.
I have had this for three years and have been using it on the MSR Pocket Rocket. The bottom changed color on the inside and eventually started to chip and peel off. If I spend $60 on a little pot, I expect it to last longer than this.
This is a nice, small pot that is light but sturdy. Fits the bill!
Excellent single person pot. With my diet I don't use oils and the ceramic coating does a fantastic job cooking and helping not burn food, even with light use of fluids. Very light and packable. Used on a bikepacking trip and is small enough to fit into a small cylinder 5L dry bag. Was able to fit fuel, dish towel, jetboil stove base (sorry msr), bowl scrapper and MSR wind screen / base inside of it. Handle does fold back to secure lid when not in use. Would highly recommend for a light weight and compact pot for solo cooking or a pot towards a group cook.
I have used this pot a lot in a short time and it has not let me down. My previous titanium pot by another maker was not non stick. This one should be labeled "stick resistant" rather than non stick but is the best titanium pot I have used. It cleans easily, heats quickly and is very light. As a titanium pot it will save weight over steel or aluminum and will bend fairly easily but this pot is as good as I've used and worth the money if weight is important to you.
Exactly what I was looking for, my titanium pot burned a batch of chili when I stopped stirring for less than a minute, I cooked a rice side in this Ceramic Solo Pot and left it to boil and then simmer with minimal supervision, it did not burn at all and when I was finished, clean up was super easy, I almost did not even need to use soap.
Haven’t had a chance to use this in the field yet, but I’ve cooked over my Jet Boil in the kitchen. Seems to be an ideal size for 1-2 people and the non-stick surface appears to work well. I’ve made instant refried beans with no sticking without having to pay constant attention. I like the way the handle folds to hold the lid in place.
I purchased this pot for this summer's field season and was quite pleased. The surface cooks eggs and other foods well without sticking, making clean-up a breeze. I Also have the 2.5L pot and appreciate that this one will ""nest"" in the larger pot, decreasing the footprint in your pack when trekking with a partner.
This is a safe pot to use for backpacking with the ceramic coating. Just big enough for my needs as a vegetarian who consumes mainly vegetables which take up more space per calorie than meat based foods. Have not used it yet though. And the price is right since I will only use it from time to time.
