Yes, you can grab any pots and pans from your kitchen, then pack it to use for your cooking activities when camping. That should work well enough. Unless, of course, you’re trying to optimize your pack, in which case carrying a bunch of loose cookware and dishware might not be the best idea. That’s where camping cookware really comes in handy and that’s what you can get with the Sea to Summit Detour Stainless Steel One Pot Cook Set.
A collapsible cookware and dishware set, it gets you the bare basics you’ll need to cook and dine in the campsite, while taking up minimal room in your pack. Not only do all the components nest together to maximize space, they even collapse into a smaller size, making it one of the most efficient ways to bring cooking and dining supplies into camp.
The Sea to Summit Detour Stainless Steel One Pot Cook Set consists of five pieces: a cooking pot, two large bowls, and two drinking mugs. All five pieces are designed to collapse into a lower height using an accordion-style section cut across their bodies, then nest together inside the pot, making it easy to maximize their capacities at camp and minimize their footprint during transport.
The cooking pot comes with a 3L capacity, which should be large enough to cook a small meal for two or three people. It has a three-ply, stainless steel base that enables even heat distribution, making it easier to control heat levels when used with camp stoves and backpacking stoves, with food-grade silicone and stainless steel used for the rest of the cookware. A pair of stainless steel handles with silicone grips make it easy to carry and move around, while a matching lid allows you to lock the heat in during cooking.
The Sea to Summit Detour Stainless Steel One Pot Cook Set comes with a pair of 2L bowls, so you don’t have to eat out of the pot, as well as a pair of drinking cups, so you can enjoy your coffee, water, or any other beverage in a civilized manner. Both the bowls and the cups are made from a mix of food-grade stainless steel and silicone. When collapsed and nested, by the way, the whole thing measures 23 x 21 x 6 cm.
The Sea to Summit Detour Stainless Steel One Pot Cook Set is available now, priced at $199.95.
