Snow Peak Kettle No. 1 with Lid (30.4 Oz), CS-068, Stainless Steel, Silver, Lifetime Product Guarantee, Foldable for Backpacking and Camping

Down through the years I have accumulated a large collection of outdoor cookware, having never been totally satisfied with any one of them. Until I got this one. I found it to be the perfect size for solo cooking and have used it almost every day since I bought it. It is very versatile and can be used for boiling water, cooking in and eating from. All of which I found it well suited for, both in the quality of it's stainless steel construction, it's features and in it's size.The bale handle will also stay up if you gently bend one of the retaining brackets outwards a little.I have been very pleased with this product and would happily recommend it.

As expected very good quality by snowpeak. Very usable pot for bushcraft/ prepping/ survival. Big enough to make stew for one or a boil in the bage meal on a cooker or fire. And easy to clean and stereliz due to it being stainless steel. Very happy

Very good quality.

Absolutely satisfied, right size.Perfect.

Excellent

Preface: I own the solo stove titan (for packing) and the solo stove campfire for home/car use, as well as their associated pots that are sized for them to pack into. I do not own the solo stove original (the smallest one), as it was too small to be practical for a party of two or more for anything other than heating water.However, I wanted the addition of a smaller pot for heating small quantities of water on the titan (say, for rehydrating meals, beverages, etc.), so I began my quest for a 30 oz. (900 ml.) or so pot. I narrowed my choices to the solo pot (having good experiences with solo’s other products) and the snow peak kettle #1. (Zebra makes nice pots as well, but they do not have side handles, nor a pour spout.)In many ways, the two pots are very similar—about the same capacity, both stainless steel, both with folding handles on the pot itself, and both with functional flat lids. Both were purchased directly from Amazon (they do not always have the snow peak in stock.)But there the similarities end.The solo pot is taller and narrower, vs. the snow peak's shorter and wider.The solo pot came with a small dent in the side—apparently not from shipping, as the packaging was pristine—so either damaged at the factory in China, or perhaps it was a mishandled return? Also, the bottom was not completely flat, and “popped” in and out with a small amount of pressure. I know that this pot was designed to be very lightweight, but the thickness of the metal was nowhere near that of solo’s other pots. Could be that I got a lemon, but I noticed some of the more recent reviewers complained of the same problems.The snow peak kettle #1, by comparison, seemed significantly sturdier, with thicker metal. It was constructed perfectly, with no flaws or dents, and the bottom was completely flat. It also has a bail handle (i.e., like a paint bucket), which will be handy when hanging over a fire. Its folding handles are longer, so less likely to get too hot to hold. It does not, however, have measurements marked on the side, which are very handy (I suppose I could scratch or engrave them on, but it would be better if it came that way.) Another downside is that the spout is a cutout on the side covered by a welded-on piece---don’t get me wrong, it is well-executed (typical high quality of snow peak equipment I have bought, all made in Japan), but the design is harder to get really clean if you heat something other than water.And the snow peak is considerably less expensive!So, if you own or are contemplating owning the original solo stove, the solo pot will be adequate for your needs and allow nesting with the stove, a potential space-saver. If you are like me in not owning or planning to own that particular stove, the snow peak is the better pot. I’m keeping mine, and the solo is going back.

Looking for a cute, little, lightweight kettle, well look no further than this Snow Peak kettle. It can double as a small pot, as it has a wide opening and a lid. It has both a folding bail/top handle and folding side handles, so you could hang it over a fire. It is a nice size and of course you can store other things inside when not in use. It is compact enough and also the metal is not too heavy, so that means it’s constructed from thinner stainless steel. I will say that it is not Made in Japan, but in Taiwan. So you can expect very good quality, just glad it isnt’ Made in China.I don’t know if the metal is ferrous, if it is than you can use it with an induction stove. The metal is mirror polished, so fingerprints are quite visible if that bugs you. But it also makes for easy clean up as most liquids won’t stick to the outside. Love the lid, just makes it a kettle vs. a pot, keeps the heat off the bail style handle. The side handles are also nice as you can use it as a giant cup as well. All in all a very nice stainless steel kettle/pot/cup. A little pricey, but I feel with the Snow Peak name and reputation, that it’s a good value for the money.
