About this deal

Pros: The cookpot has been designed in such a way that it is successfully multipurpose. The 750ml capacity makes it big enough to cook enough food for a good meal but it’s not so large that it can’t also double as a (albeit large) mug for coffee breaks or an evening hot drink. This is achieved with the handles on the side of the pot that can fold out to make moving the pot from the stove easier and make it easy to drink from as a mug. Having an item that can double up like this is useful for people who want to reduce the amount of stuff they take with them as well as reduce their overall base weight. One issue we have with this pot are the measuring lines inside of the pot. They are visible and appear as three rows of spot welds. They are at the one two and three cup levels, but don’t have numbers or lines like other pots we tested. If you didn’t know, you’d think they are just weld spots. One of the advantages of the Halulite over other anodized pots we considered is GSI’s thoughtful insulated handle system. Rubber-like insulation protects your hands from the heat when handling a hot stove. It can nest TOAKS Titanium 375ml Cup, Titanium 450ml Cup, Titanium 450ml Double Wall Cup and100ml gas canister

What we like: even burn that can handle temperature differences for ACTUAL cooking, insulated lid and handle, durability, price Titanium and aluminum are lightweight, but can warp, dent, and scratch easily. This can really drive some people nuts.

We’ve tried pots without handles like the original version of the Vargo Bot(a bottle-pot that comes with a screwable lid but no handles). While we appreciate the weight savings, a handle-less design is inconvenient for all but the most gram-saving weenies. The ultralight titanium pot is perfect for long treks when every ounce of weight makes a difference! Ultralight titanium is corrosion-resistant and lasts for years. Rounded bottom edges make cleaning easy and improve heating efficiency . Handles fold away for compact storage . Titanium leaves no metalic smell or taste. External: 4 1/2" (115mm) (Diameter) X 4 3/8" (112mm) (H) (measured with lid and handles folded and bail handle) Note that like all titanium and aluminum cookware, MSR advises that you don’t want to put this one directly on a fire.

The Toaks Titanium 750 mL has foldaway handles and a pot lid that provide just enough easy gripping to get the job done without adding unnecessary weight. It fits a 110g fuel canister and a stove while its shape and size make it relatively durable for titanium cookware. If you’re car camping, you will likely have more burners available and should get as many pots as you have burners. You’ll also want plates, deep bowls, and mugs as well as a frying pan. For this story, we’re only considering cooking pots, although the GSI Pinnacle cookset that we recommend includes a pot, pan, plates, bowls, and mugs.Aluminum is best for conducting heat (think simmering without burning the bottom of your pan). Even if you’re cooking soup, if it requires a simmer, the aluminum pot can usually handle that job better than titanium (which can get soup chunks burnt to the bottom of the pot). While “ceramic” implies a heavier weight to many people, the MSR Ceramic Solo Pot is surprisingly lightweight. In fact, at 7.5 oz, it is 1.2 oz lighter than the Halulite, the other hard-anodized aluminum cookware of the same size. It’s also a bigger pot than the Halulite, so well suited for two people. At 3.75 oz per person, it’s the same weight per person as our lightest weight option, the titanium Toaks 750 mL. The only complaint we’ve seen (and it’s true for most Titanium pots except for the MSR Titan) is that the lid doesn’t “snap” into the pot. The lid is fairly loose, which means it’s easy to pull it off. That can be a boon if you’d rather not burn yourself when removing a pot’s lid. But it also means that you’ll need care when draining water.

The TOAKS Titanium Pots are made from ultralight titanium which is corrosion-resistant and can last for years if looked after. As well as being incredibly light and durable, the pots have a useful feature set consisting of fold away handles, internal graduation lines and lid with steam holes.

The bail handle feature is great as it allows you to collect water easily as well as giving you the option for hanging your pot over an open fire. The latest version uses Fusion ceramic is tougher than the previous version. It’s not just free of PFOAs but PTFEs.When it comes to sturdy, high-quality cookware for a reasonable price, TOAKS definitely fits the bill!

While in theory having an item that doubles as a pot and a mug seems pretty great, it does have its downsides. You can’t have a hot drink while you’re waiting for your food to cook and you do need to ensure you’ve wiped the pot out thoroughly after cooking, so that the evening hot drink won’t have nice bits of food floating about in it. However, if you are the sort of person who’s using this item for its multi-functionality, then the chances are you’re not overly worried about these minor concerns. A lightweight cup can be easily obtained for people who do like to prepare a hot drink to have while they then cook their food. Graduation Marks - Gradation marks are etched into the cup’s side where they are labeled in milliliters and ounces. What we don’t like: pricier than some pots, handles aren’t insulated, liquid measure lines not as intuitive as on other pots. Another nice feature of the Halulite is that it features liquid measuring lines that are visible on the inside and outside of the pot. They’re measured in ounces (oz) and mL so make it easy to add the correct amount of water to your freeze-dried meal. Unlike the TOAKS, the MSR Titan lid handle has insulation so you can peek at your meal as it cooks without having to put on gloves first. But depending on how you cook, the un-insulated handles can get sometimes get hot, so we suggest using gloves when handling (as recommended with the TOAKS pot).What makes the Toaks Titanium 750 mL our favorite of the vast and sometimes overwhelming Toaks Titanium collection is its compact and convenient shape and size. With the 750 mL, you get a vessel that doubles as a mug and pot. Sometimes, pots can be too pot-like to work well as a mug. They’re too wide to sip from without worrying about dribbling. Meanwhile, sometimes mugs can be too mug-like to work well as a pot. They can be too tall or tippy when boiling water and have stability issues. The Toaks 750 mL is just the right size to work well as both.
