It is great set! Although some people might not like it depends on what they need. First, this thing is heavy, it is not for lightweight carry around in backpack. Specially the big pot, if there’s food in the pot(probably stews) it will be hard to carry with the handle that provides. (It does have side handles on both side, so its not that big of deal) If you are looking for backpacking, this is not it. Otherwise this can be the set for your need.
Solid kit. If you're looking for something more like what you're used to using at home - this is it. The heavier base spreads out the hot spots you'd get from lighter weight cookware. The removable handle is great for the fry pan and smaller sauce pan, but a bit cumbersome for the larger 5QT pot, plus there is only one. If you are cooking two things at once, it can be a bit of a pain to swap the handle back and forth. I'd recommend picking up a second handle and finding silicone grips that fit for each side of that larger pot, so you can manage things better.
We bought this cook set for our teardrop trailer where space is limited. The nesting design of the pots and pans, plus the removable handle is perfect. I thought parts of the handle would be made out of plastic, but to my surprise it is entirely metal. I think the entire set is truly well built. The pots have a thick bottom and sturdy sidewalls, helping with heat distribution and retention. The straining lids are also a really nice touch, it is pretty convenient to not have to carry around an extra strainer. But let me tell you about this pan. I'm a huge fan of cast iron cooking and I also really like carbon steel cookware, my experience being with woks specifically. This pan shot straight to my heart. If you're familiar with how to use carbon steel, it is an absolute breeze. Nothing sticks to it. Nothing. Camp cleanup has never been easier. The pan is so smooth that a spatula and a paper towel are all that is needed to fully clean it. I'm about to replace all the skillets in my house with carbon steel ones, literally cannot recommend it enough. The carrying back and pot mat are also really nice touches. Oxo designs really great products and I'm so happy that have gotten into the camp world!
So I just got this and opened it and on first glance this set is bomb proof. It’s so much thicker than normal camping pots. The metal seems very high quality. The carbon steel pan feels incredible. I’m anxious to us and see how it does! It’s very aesthetic as well. It’s pretty heavy and definitely not made to do any traveling with beyond from the shelf to the car, the car to the camp table. This set is for car campers ala Snow Peak.
Saw this set inside our REI and immediately noticed the weight. We purchased this set and the cookware all has a thick bottom, perfect for high heat cooking. It’s clear this set will last a long time with how durable they are. We used them for a few cooks already and have really enjoyed the set. The carbon steel pan is easy to clean without too much fuss. My only complaint is that the set come with one handle (which has its own storage pocket inside the bag it comes with). All in all very pleased.
Quality and weight looks and feels really great. Should cook food really well. I haven’t tried it yet but can’t wait to cook with this set . Packs in the spot I thought that it might, so that is a real plus for me . I will be using it in my truck camper .
Heavy, but super high quality, thick bottomed pots with thin sides. great for car camping!
