The new Frontier Ultralight Cook set is a brilliant redesign in the Sea to Summit line up. As an alpine climber, I obsess over both weight and space savings and this new cook set checks both boxes. I paired the cook set with a jet boil Mighty Moe and compared it to my `` go to '' MSR reactor kit with Sea to Summit cup and bowl. The Frontier Ultralight cook set weights in at 20 grams heavier than the MSR however, it provides 2 cups, 2 bowls, and a 2. 2 liters pot. It also seems to pack better in a rucksack which is critical when trying to jam everything into a smaller rucksack. The space and weight savings when considering two people, is definitely making this new cook set my `` go to '' for summer adventures!

[ I absolutely recommend the frontier five piece collapsible set for your camping needs. I wish that I would have had this product for the last 30 years that I 've been camping and not just discovered it recently.

5
Tidy, convenient, and perfect for backpacking in. The utensils are very light weight so you wo n't be able to pry heavy things around in the pan with them but I had no trouble moving ground elk around in the pan and flipping trout. Saw some other reviews about them melting and not being strong but I strongly think that was user error. They 're plastic so yeah, they will melt if you get them too hot. It's science. But if you do n't expose them to high heat for long periods of time they work just fine.

Minimalist set for those looking to keep it simple and quick. If you 're not too picky about condiments and toppings, seasonings and salts... then this set is for you. The spatula and spoon are two simple, yet crucial elements of any cookset, and the durability of the two in this set is awesome. They are both light, yet rigid and do their job with ease. Great value as well. Recommend for quick travelers who are traveling solo.

[ Camping is my passion. This Sea to Summit collapsible one pot cook set is durable and very easy to clean. This has five pieces to it. The base is compatible with induction and gas cookers. This is a stainless steel and silicone materials. Has a safety lid. The pot is awesome, exactly what you think it would be. It collapses together for backpacking to save space. If anything gets remotely stuck in the bottom it comes out immediately with a sponge. I love this set. Coffee stays really hot for longer than in my regular mug. The handles are removable and nice to have on there. The bowl is the perfect size for breakfast. Portable and heat up with even distribution.

I have a set for one person, everything is high- quality and compact. does not take up much space and is very light. A big plus is that the pot's handle folds up. One more important thing that the bowl/ cup be held comfortably when contents are hot because the Cool Grip surface allows you to hold the tableware securely while providing insulation from hot contents.. I ca n't recommend this enough! Buy one now. You wo n't regret it.

We 've only used these a few times but they seem really sturdy and like they will hold up. We were happy with the colors and color choices. The dunk bag seems really well made, too.

Upon receiving the 6 piece Sea to Summit Frontier Cook Set – everything about it suggests top quality. The packaging is robust and signifies that high quality gear is within. I took set on a 3 day/2 night kayak camping trip I was leading for a group of 11 people. I shared the kit with the group to get their impressions as well. At less than 2 lbs( 1lb 13oz) this set offers a very high value for the weight being carried. Admittedly, this was a kayak camping trip, so weight is not that big of a factor, volume is more important. The set fit easily within my kayak. The new Click- Safe handle design is brilliant although some people seemed to struggle with it at first. It is actually really simple to use and really makes the pot feel like a one- piece pot – super sturdy. The 2L and 3L sizes give you plenty of flexibility to prepare just about anything in the wilderness. While the strainer lids are becoming standard on outdoor cookware, they are integral to the frontier lids and worked really well for draining pasta. The addition of the Sea to Summit Frontier Ultralight Pan would make this a comprehensive cook set. The pots cooked food nicely and seemed to have good heat distribution. I used the 3L to mix a cake mix that I was baking in a dutch oven and used a metal wisk to mix it. There were no marks at all on the inside of the pot – suggesting a very robust no- stick coating that will not scratch easily. The inclusion of two nice bowls and covered cups is really nice. We used both the bowls and the cups on this trip. Although very light, they are sturdy and were easy to hold with hot food in them. The spill proof lids on the cups are a nice feature and the cups did well for both morning coffee and evening wine. One comment/observation a number of people had( including the author) was that it would be nice if the set came in a bag( mesh or otherwise) to protect the outside of the 3L pot. The other comment I received from a few people is it was a little hard to see the graduation numbers inside the pot( maybe make them bigger for the next generation?). All in all, this is a fantastic set that will delight the outdoor chef. It is well thought out and the new Click- Safe handle design is a winner – really makes it feel like a solid one piece pot. A thought on a bag – maybe Sea to Summit could list the recommended Ultra- Sil or Big River dry bag size as part of the product description? Thanks again Sea to Summit for manufacturing well thought out, high quality gear!

Excellent new pot set! Did a 2 day overnight backpack trip on the Appalachian Trail with my niece and nephew. Great weight for all that is in there, and I love that everything fits inside the pot.

I 've used the collapsible 1. 4L pot from Sea to Summit for a couple of years now and really enjoy how compact it is, so I was a little hesitant on the non- collapsibility of these pots. I was concerned about filling these pots up with items that might scratch the non- stick finish. They include a nice cloth that allows the smaller pot to nest into the larger pot and protect them from each other. I used that cloth and a bag to put my stove, fuel, all of my dishes, and utensils, plus my LED light strip into the 3L pot. It's all kept in nicely by the handle clicked over the lid. The 3L size was not as much of an issue as I thought it would be, just stuff more stuff into it! I have a large set of pots/ pans and the 3L size Frontier is easily the best volume/ weight ratio of any of them. Even including the handle in the weight. The non- stick is AWESOME and the bottom heats very evenly. I enjoyed cooking in this much more than my 1. 4L collapsible pot. The lid `` hook '' for placing the lid on the side of the pot is a nice feature... always hard to find a clean place for your lid! I also had no problem keeping the lid in place for draining pasta, nice solid lid fit on the pot. My only `` issue '' is the bottom of the pots has an `` indent ''. This is great for strength, but the diameter of the indent is slightly smaller than my optimus crux stove... so the pot is a little unstable/ off- kilter on the stove. Still 5 stars overall. This is a great pot set.

Dalton B.
[ The pots are firstly well made and have a nice fit/ finish. I like the sizes as they provide good options. I feel like some others are either too large or too small. The handle is nice that it can be removed and it ’s easy to snap back on when needed. The nesting storage is always good as well. Only thing that could be lighter is possibly titanium but it ’s extremely light for the set and I don ’ t think that would be worth changing. One thing that could be nice is the handle interface being on the lid as well to snap into just to not be fighting steam with your hands but not a deal breaker. Good pot set and might end up getting another set here soon. Do recommend

Daiva G.
[ Camping with our daughter this summer in the Tetons, we needed an extra pot for the meals we were preparing. She had one of the S- S titanium pots, which we used frequently. We were pleased enough to purchase this twin set upon return home. Thoughtful design with the draining lids, reversible handles, nesting ability, hooking lids, and good proportions. The material is light, of course, and seems very durable. We look forward to years of service from this set.

Christopher C.
[ First off why I gave four stars. The handle is too heavy for the small pot. When empty with handle attached the pot tips over. I use these with my overland set up so space is not an issue. The pots are well made and distribute heat evenly. Clean up is easy because of the non stick surface. I like how the pots nest into each other with the handles inverted also securing the lids. The microfiber towel in between the two pots is a nice touch to insure the pots don ’ t scratch themselves in transport. These replaced an old MSR cook set that I had for over 30 years. They were much bigger but too big for what I needed. I can cook for two people with the Sea to Summet set plenty of capacity. All in all very pleased.

Backpacking utensils are lightweight and compact tools designed for eating and cooking while on outdoor adventures. They are essential for campers and hikers as they help minimize pack weight and space, allowing for easier transport. These utensils typically include items like sporks, forks, knives, and spoons, often made from durable materials to withstand outdoor conditions.
Backpacking utensils are often made from materials such as stainless steel, titanium, and durable plastics. Stainless steel offers strength and resistance to rust, while titanium is known for being lightweight and highly durable. Some utensils may also feature heat-resistant plastics, which provide a good balance between weight and functionality.
When selecting backpacking utensils, consider factors such as weight, durability, and the type of meals you plan to prepare. Lightweight options are ideal for long hikes, while sturdier materials may be better for cooking. Additionally, think about the number of people in your group and whether you need a complete set or just a few essential items.
While you can technically use regular kitchen utensils for backpacking, they are often too heavy and bulky for outdoor use. Backpacking utensils are specifically designed to be lightweight and compact, making them more suitable for carrying in a backpack. Using specialized utensils can enhance your outdoor experience by making meal preparation and eating more convenient.
When choosing backpacking utensils, look for features such as multi-functionality, lightweight design, and ease of cleaning. Utensils that combine functions, like a spork, can save space and weight. Additionally, consider items that are easy to clean and dry quickly, as this can be a significant advantage during multi-day trips.
Yes, certain backpacking utensils are better suited for specific types of meals. For example, a spork is versatile for both solid and liquid foods, while a knife may be necessary for preparing ingredients. If you plan to cook complex meals, consider a more comprehensive set that includes various tools to accommodate different cooking methods.
