I just picked this one up at one of our local sporting goods stores. It was marked down to 16.99 for a holiday special, I couldn't not walk out with it!

It too is Hard Anodized Aluminum. Tim, you mentioned you put yours directly on the coals? If I recall correctly this one advises not to do that but I may be wrong. I haven't had the opportunity to use it yet, but I'll let you know what I think after I get some use out of it. Out of the box it seems like a good quality product.

I like the Mors Pot this week.

I wanted to try out a more traditional shaped cooking vessel for backpacking. I have the snow peak trekker set and love it for its durability and overall features. But I wanted something wide like the 1400 made by snowpeak but shorter.

I snagged an Evernew 0.9l ultralight.

It is noticeably lighter and the pot will flex some where the snow peak did not but this is like I said. Noticeably lighter. And it's titanium material means stronger than you'd think.

The overall shape means I have to relearn how to pack my stuff. For example, my windscreen wrapped around my water bottle instead of inside the cook pot.



So far I really like the traditional shape of this pot, the wider surface area for my alcohol stoves as well as a traditional and functional lid.

I was able to cook a regular sized complete box of Mac and cheese and have room to add some meat to it such as dehydrated hamburger or summer sausage.



I was able to get a perfect simmer using the simmer ring on my Trangia stove.


No burnt noodles or sticking of the food.

Clean up was super easy with the wide shape.

So far I love the purchase!!

MSR 1.5L stainless snap down handle. Never used the lid to fry anything thinking pancakes in the morning after that dehydrated pouch wasn't enough.
