Sea to Summit Frontier Ultralight Two Pot Set - 1.3L & 3L

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 ... MoreI'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.

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.

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.

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
