Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Though this might be overlooked by the ultra lighters out there, the Stanley Adventure Camp Cook Set is a staple in the camping/backpacking world. In my opinion, you have two safe choices of metal in camping cookware: stainless steel or titanium. I would suggest steering clear of anodized aluminum (there's a possible research link to Alzheimer's...why take the chance?) Stainless steel is inexpensive, but heavy. Titanium is light, but expensive. The Stanley is great for me, as I don't mind the weight. I tossed the two plastic nestling cups that come with it in favor of storing my stove, fuel, cleaning towel, and eating utensil inside instead. I use the Stanley in conjunction with a GSI stainless steel cup that nestles well with it. The lid for the Stanley fits perfectly as a lid for the GSI Cup, as well. Speaking of the lid, the attention to detail on the Stanley is actually amazing, considering pots far more expensive don't usually have the perks that the Stanley does. The lid has a plastic flip-up finger handle that stays up perfectly on its own. There are also drain holes in the lid. There are measurements marked on the outside, but not on the inside. However the marks are stamped, so you can still see them from the inside...just reversed. No big deal, really. The handle is strong and acts as a firm/reliable closure when it's locked into its folded position. Overall, the Stanley is a quality product at a terrific price. I love mine and would easily recommend it.
