TOAKS Titanium 1100ml Pot with Pan

Very light and nice design

This is my new favorite backpacking pot.It's big enough to cook for 2 people, but small and light enough to not kill your weight/space on a solo trip. I love that it fits a Solo Stove perfectly, with room to spare under the frying pan lid and inside the Solo for tinder, utensils, soap, and more.Right now I have the Toaks gasifier titanium stove set nested in it (fits perfect) and it leaves me twice as much accessory storage space as the Solo stove does. I can now have the Toaks wood burning stove, a small butane canister with small backpacking stove, and room for my folding utensil, soap, and 3 tinder blocks. This way, I have canned fuel and a simple stove for quick meals, but if fuel runs out or a valve fails then I can easily burn wood in the gasifier. Super happy with this versatile setup, and the weight can't be beat.One of my favorite little details about this pot/lid set is the lip. When using the fry pan upside down as your lid, the fry pan fits down inside the lip of the main pot by a good 1/8". If your food starts to boil over a little, the lip catches the boil-over and stays in the pot instead of spilling over the side like non-recessed lids can do. Less risk of getting the stove wet and potentially putting it out.The handle of the pot comes out of the pin sockets easily, but the handle is spring loaded so they won't come out unless you're opening the handle. They pop right back in though, so no big deal. The handles on the pot itself are plenty sturdy to easily allow you to lift your pot full of water or food. The rubber coating is a bit vulnerable if you're cooking over open flame or on a gasifier stove though. Keep your flame away from the handles or the rubber will deform or potentially melt off. Some people like to remove it all together, but I like having it on there for a slightly thicker and insulated grip.I own over a dozen backpacking cook systems of all types and weights. For the simple lightweight setup, this is the way to go. Enjoy!

Happy to support a local brand #100OAKS. These are great for solo backpacking. Two 100g fuel canisters, a small stove, and a bic lighter pack nicely inside and a titanium Gerber Spork tucks neatly into a small pocket in the really nice mesh bag that it comes in. All at less than 700 grams! The frying pan is big enough for a decent chunk of spam or two eggs and the pot fits about two servings of soup or whatever else you want to cook in it. The pot is also a handy measuring cup.

I was almost afraid this was going to be too small but I took it on a 3 person backpacking trip and it easily made 2 or all 3 meals. Very fast to heat the second pot on my MSR stove. I love it--it's half the size and weight of my old pot

I've had this cooking set for about 4-5 years and it's as good as new. I find it very convenient to nest the lid on top of the pot. An 8oz gas canister fits in the pot, together with a few packets of precooked oatmeal, soup and/or coffee or tea; enough for a day's hike. It doesn't fit a folding micro-stove, though, so I have to carry that separately. The pan is rather small but it works OK for frying small food portions or as a ("deep") soup or pasta dish. The set has become a little heat-stained over the years, but it still cleans easily with a regular scrub pad after a night or 2 of camping out. Overall, I think it's a great set for a day or overnight outing and over the years the initial investment more than pays for itself. If I had to *really* think of an improvement, it would be to have an additional lid for the pot. You can use the frying pan/plate, but most of the time it's being used for meal prep or already has food in it and not having a lid wastes heat (and gas fuel).

It's amazing how much lighter Titanium is then Stainless Steel but there are some trad offs Like cooking characteristics. Titanium transfers heat instantly like right now and it's very easy to burn your food. Stainless steel heats more evenly and slower so its more predictable. I learned quickly to not have my TOAKS pot to close to the heat source for better cooking, burned the food first time out lol, but for boiling water its fantastic. It cleans super easy and being so light weight makes it better in the backpack. It will never rust or corrode and should last a lifetime with proper care. I have since purchased the TOAKS 750ml cup and love it. I do however recommend the Snow Peak Hot Lips unless your lips are made of leather, apparently mine are not, OUCH!, Other then that TOAKS makes great reasonably priced Titanium gear. I did not mention aluminum because if its uncoated it will leach into your food and it is toxic, like the old military mess kits!, Yeah not recommended and I just don't trust it.

I’ve only used it once but it is very light weight and good quality. I’m excited to continue to use it on my adventures.

So, I have used the pot and pan combo a few times now, and I am really enjoying it. Admittingly, I use the pot more than the pan, but I am glad I have both. After cooking a bunch of meals with them, I have really only had one complaint, though it is minor. If you cook for long periods of time with it, the hands tend to get a bit hot. I think it would probably be normal for pots of this size though, and the handle is long enough that it actually takes a little while for this to happen. I just move the pot away from the fire with a few pushes and then boom, the handles cool down enough to use again. All in all, this pot is the perfect size for a one person meal in my opinion, and it has yet to be damaged in any way. It is lightweight, and I can barely feel it at all in my backpack. Probably because it is titanium, but it makes it a lot easier to carry on long hikes. All in all, I would definitely suggest this pot/Pan combo if you are looking to cook out in the wild, the lightweight nature mixed with how well it actually heats up the food makes it a definitely good buy. I would say it is more than worth the money. I will admit, I haven't had it for years, but it looks barely used at all after countless meals with it already. Would suggest.
