SOTO Navigator Camping Cookware Set - Slip Resistant, Shock Resistant Corrosion Resistant, and Multi-Functional Cookware

I bought this to replace a nearly 30-year old stainless steel set. It's a nice set. It's quite a bit lighter. I cooked bacon and a couple of poached eggs in the 2 pans on a MSR Whisperlite last weekend. It cooked quickly. The bacon caught and stuck a little, but the pan came clean very easily. Because the pans are quite light and thin, I would be concerned about burning and sticking if I were cooking anything without lots of liquid. I think it's probably necessary to keep stirring all the time. The design is good - I was particularly looking for a clipping handle rather than the flimsy-looking fold-out wire handles. It felt very stable even with the pan full of water. The clipping handle is spring-loaded so it's a very positive action. The lids look as though they will work well to strain pasta etc. I was initially a bit sceptical about the insulation for the smaller pan, but it prevents rattles and I think it would also work well for example to keep sauce hot while you cook pasta or rice. Overall a good set.

I wondered if it was a little bit expensive at first but it turned out to be well worth the money.Excellent product!

I have several stoves and cook sets by Trangia, Coleman, Vango, MSR and Soto. This is a good set. The cozy is excellent, the strainer / lids are great and the weight is perfect. I've used this on my gas stoves over winter while wild camping in the Scottish Highlands and while walking the West Highland Way for a week, with the kit stuffed in my rucksack.It cleans well, even comes with its own cloth that doubles as a pouch for the pot handle and the smallest pot holds more volume than my Trangia 27 series. My burner fits inside the small pot with a small gas canister but there's no room for my windshield (a vango folding shield), but thats no biggie.I really like this set. I've only had it a few months though, so can't say how robust it is. No scratches, dents or burn marks thus far. Packs down small enough and is great for cooking a proper meal with.

It’s a nice set but I wish the lids were also titanium. The plastic lid has melted around the edge. It’s vulnerable because heat moving up the outside of the pan easily melts the edges. I was careful to try to avoid this but the plastic lid is unforgiving if you get heat management slightly wrong. I wish I could buy titanium lids from Soto, but they are not available.

Waste of money... I needed something bigger than a pot to do some proper cooking at camp... this is not the answer to that.They are not nonstick and so you can't easily fry without destroying the bottom and having food stick!They are big and curved, so they take up loads of space and nothing really fits in easily together!The lids, the metal, the coating, it all feels ultra cheap!It does look sexy, but in practical use it's a bit of a faff to use on a camp repeatedly...Instead of this I bought a folding nonstick pan and a collapsible plastic bowl! They fit down small together and no sticking! It's hard to know who these should be aimed at? If your car camping and weight/space is no issue, then you would want to bring something from home that's nonstick and bigger/cheaper... if your a wild camper like me then they r to big and not nonstick... I want as few issues with my cooking kit as possible when at camp... cannot recommend these for anything other than camping pictures on Instagram... they do look like hot kit!

Passing second hand, food stained, anodised coating damaged product off as new goods.

Liking this set a lot.Light and nicely designed.The small pot will store the windmaster burner with a small gas canister,the handle supplied, a small lighter and Ferro rod.The anodised aluminium gives fast boil times.

It’s part of the emergency kit I stow in my car so I can light a fire and cook a meal no matter where I am

For starters, I have MANY Soto products, and I find them all excellent.After having great success with the Thermostack when camping solo, I thought purchasing the Navigator cookset for family camping would be a no-brainer.Knowing that this set would have the same issue as the Thermostack (the lids, being plastic, will melt if you don't use a slow heat) that wasn't really a problem for me. I'm okay with the efficiency loss of boiling without the lid on.What was a problem was that it's almost impossible to pour from either pot. I'm not looking for laminar flow, or a goose-neck kettle performance.... just the ability to get water into a mug or bowl without making a huge mess. I tried several times, over a 5 day camping trip, and was never able to successfully do that.I have many, many pots...from stainless steel billy pots, to titanium mugs.... and these two are by far the worst to pour from. The water dribbles down the side of the pot, no matter how much is in it, and at what speed you attempt to pour.This might not be a problem for some; for me, being the only pots I take, they need to also be able to distribute hot water into other vessels. Without a ladle or the like, it is very frustrating to do this.Everything else about these pots is great (the gripper, the strainers in the lids, the anodized finish, the cozy).... except the tabs on the lids...they suck.Unfortunately, this is the first Soto product that I do not recommend.

Kurzeinsatz auf Motorradtour. Das Set ist wunderbar durchdacht. Gescheiten Brenner und alles ist top.

小さい方の鍋は、一番最適なサイズと形、使いやすさ。大きい鍋はグルキャンの機会まで自宅待機。

very good
