4 out of 5 stars
the alpine stowaway pots from MSR are a true classic for campfire or small stove cooking
had to revise my rating, updates below... great for camping, backpacking, bug out bag, or emergency kit! the integrated handle/latch setup is killer! they can hold stove, fuel, food, etc. making them a great self contained mess kit! i primarily use these with alcohol stoves... for me the smaller ones, 475ml & 775ml, work best with stoves that jet the flame upward like the vargo triads or trangia spirit burner... the bigger ones, 1.1l & 1.6l, work best with stoves that jet the flame out to the side like the vargo decagon, go bag, white box, or similar... at first i was a bit thrown by the large size of the 1.6l, then i got a go bag stove with very aggressive side jets, & i was like - eureka! but back to the 1.1l size, great mid to large size traditional wide/flat style camping pot, would work well with just about any style camping/backpacking stove i think, & will work over the campfire or with wood burning stove too... i have even seen where folks bake bread over coals in a sealed up stowaway pot, can't wait to try that! a couple other great things about stowaway pots... they are reasonably priced, & they are durable quality stainless steel... not aluminum! heavier than yes, but comparably priced, & no aluminum toxins messin with the brain! of course, they aren't as light as titanium, but look at the price! & i don't think there is a titanium pot with the same integrated handle/latch setup design, so nothing really compares! all the photos i've added are mine except for the one that shows how you can rig the stowaway to hang over fire, ingenious! update: 04/14/17 still have all the sizes & they still get used, but one thing i have to add is that i've discovered what could be the only flaw with this alpine stowaway design, & that is i cannot get a good pour out of these, meaning when i have boiled water & hold pot by handle, then slowly try to pour contents out of pot, it always runs down the side, always! that is a bummer since i like to do exactly that to make my coffee or tea, so that is one strike against these MSR pots for me update: 02/13/18 i was tired of the sloppy pours out of these msr stowaway pots. so i tried some other products with similar design. between the msr stowaway, zebra 14cm lunchbox, & comfort loft bento, it was the Zebra 152314 Stainless Steel Food Box and Pan with Snap on Lid, 14cm, Silver that had the best pour. the msr stowaway is the best of these in every other regard, however the sloppy poor is a total deal breaker for me when i know there is a pot that won't spill all the time. unfortunately the zebra is only available in one size, but i'd rather have that one than 4 different sizes that make a mess if i try to pour from them. the zebra 14cm lunchbox fits my silverfire scout wood stove etc. & is comparable in size to the msr 775ml. added a new pic showing the 3 pots, msr, zebra, & comfort loft in that order. update 11/27/18: well the stowaway has redeemed itself a bit for me. i had mentioned using the pot like a dutch oven to bake, & i finally got around to trying it with excellent results! i've added a picture that shows the only stowaway i have left, a 1.1 liter, in the firepit as a dutch oven, elevated a bit above the really hot coals underneath & with a few coals sitting on top. i inverted the pot so the flat bottom would be the top & coals would stay on there. i baked IPA cornbread in a greased msr alpine bowl that was sitting in the lid of the upside down pot. the bowl was raised off the inside of stainless lid with this little gem, the Ilsa 5" cast iron reducer. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0007ZHQ1Y/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 basically like a cast iron trivet that kept the bottom of bowl from getting too hot & burning the cornbread, as well as acting as a heat sink to dissipate heat more evenly. the baking worked so well i am considering getting a 1.6 liter stowaway to also use for campfire baking since it will fit a larger baking dish of some kind. so yeah, while these stowaways do still spill every time something is poured from them, they are nonetheless very useful & i'll have the 2 bigger ones in my kit specifically for baking, as well as cooking anything i don't have to pour! added 1 star for the baking possibilities, but still loses a star for the silly spilly pours!

    I purchased this pot to replace my 775ml MSR pot. Which while it was great was in need of replacing due to use.
    I also am now cooking for more than one person usually so I wanted something that I could use for two people.

    Pros:
    - Well constructed Stainless Steel
    - Durable

    Cons:
    - Not the lightest pot
    - Liquids tend to dribble

    These are great for camping as they are quite compact. The build quality is seems solid, however they are not the lightest pot of this size on the market. Probably lean towards titanium for backpacking, but for camping these work well. The pot is hinged to lock in the pot cover and handle. Great design and easy to unlock and secure.

    I prefer not to cook in a cup or extremely small pot. If I can fit this in my pack and I can easily. It works for me.
    You don't have to be afraid of taking a scouring pad to it to clean it out like you do with the non stick pots. This pot is a package in itself. The pot boils water and is large enough to fry food and everything stays in. Did I mention the lid doubles as a plate.

    All in all, the pot is tough and durable. You can cook over an open fire or on a stove. I would easily purchase this again .. its just a tough little pot with no frills.

    Size: 1.7 QuartsVerified Purchase
    The MSR Stowaway Pot 1.6 L is the largest stowaway pot that MSR offers. For a backpacking pot, it's huge, but by home cooking standards, it's fairly average/medium sized in diameter and slightly short in height compared to most kitchen pots. It's very well made from high quality stainless steel with a terrific locking design that ensures the lid stays on tight and anything stored inside stays put. Since I enjoy bushcraft and often cook over an open fire, I settled on stainless steel for its ruggedness. (Titanium leads to annoying hot spots and poor heat distribution--especially in large pots like this one--and aluminum always seems to warp and lose its non-stick coating over the heat of a campfire.) With a short length of wire such as a coat hanger, you can also rig the folding handle so that it can be used like a bail handle to hang the pot over a fire, as several folks have demonstrated on YouTube.

    I bought this pot to build a cookset for my family of five. I am combining this 1.6 L stowaway pot with the (excellent) MSR Alpine fry pan and the (excellent) GSI Glacier Stainless Kettle. All three go together so well it seems like they belong together. The fry pan nests perfectly around the bottom of the 1.6 L pot, and the smaller (1 L) GSI Kettle fits inside the pot nicely, with a little room around the perimeter for small and flexible items (a scrub pad, some small utensils, etc.). The metal tabs that hold the bail handle on the GSI Kettle do press against the underside of the stowaway pot's lid, but if you use a needle-nose pliers to bend the tabs downward about 1/8", the kettle fits inside perfectly with the lid locked down securely.

    These three pots have been a superb campfire cookset for our five-person family. The 1.6 L pot is large enough to cook a full box of Macaroni and Cheese (or a family-size stew, etc.) while we brew coffee in the GSI Kettle. The fry pan is not essential, but it's so convenient for cooking bacon, eggs, fish, burgers, and other delicious items. We could probably use the stowaway pot (or its lid) as a makeshift fry pan, but I don't like frying in a deep pot or on a curved lid with no handle. Instead, I'll carry the extra weight to have a proper fry pan. And at a total weight of 2.5 lbs., that's only 0.5 lbs. per person for the entire cookset.

    If you're assembling your own group cookset and you need a solid large stainless pot to contain most of the kit, this 1.6L Stowaway pot is an excellent choice. For only one or two, I think most weight- and space-conscious hikers/campers will find this pot to be too large, and would likely prefer one of the smaller sizes. Regardless, the quality and function are great! Highly recommended!

    [UPDATE 3/4/2014: For experiment's sake, I tried using the lid of this 1.6L pot as a makeshift fry pan as some others have suggested. Size-wise, it's a great size. However, without a handle, it is virtually impossible to cook delicate foods (eggs, pancakes, etc.) over an open fire. You need a good glove/oven mitt to protect your fingers and then either cook on a nice bed of hot-but-not-too-hot coals and watch very attentively, or over a cook stove with a nice low flame setting; otherwise, get used to obnoxious scorching. But it can be made to work. So, for further experiment's sake, I tried removing the handle from the pot, then screwing a stainless loop onto the lid to reattach the handle as a fry pan handle. That worked much better because I could easily remove/replace the pan from the fire without risk of burning my hand, controlling the heat much better. However, it's still a far cry from the more pleasant and predictable cooking of the MSR Alpine fry pan. Lid frying in this pot is workable in a pinch, but demands all your attention and certainly, without a handle, exponentially increases your risk of burnt food or a burnt hand.]

    [UPDATE 7-7-2015: Still loving this cookset. With my modification so that I can attach the handle to the lid, I now use the lid as a frypan fairly often, allowing me to eliminate the weight of the separate Alpine Fry Pan when I'm backpacking with my family. Having a self-contained cookset with a lid that locks on is so very convenient, and after a LOT of cooking over the fire, my pot is none the worse for wear (except for some blackening of the metal, of course, which gives it character). These pots are bombproof; they will last you a lifetime of normal camp cooking. Great stuff.]

    OK - THIS is JUST PERFECT. I'm packing a 3-5 day Survival Bag for 2 people, and purchased this one in the 775ml size ( about 3 1/3 U.S. Cups) . I looked at many before deciding but felt this looked like good quality for the money. BUT the kicker was that I was also going to buy a small portable wood / alcohol stove. There are also many of those, and while they all "look" the same, they all have slightly different dimensions from different manufacturers / sellers. So anyway, after reading one backpackers advise about how the Ohuhu Portable Stainless Steel Wood Burning Camping Stove (size 5.3 x 5.3 x3"H) nests PERFECTLY inside THIS MSR 775 ml pot and then both inside the black bag, I thought I'd give those two models a try. They came yesterday -- and not only is the pot a very nice quality pot, small, and perfect for my purposes, the Ohuhu Portable Wood Stove (also nice quality) fits PERFECTLY inside this pot just as the other reviewer said. This makes for a very small but quality pot and stove that is both lightweight, good quality and very EASY and small to put into a backpack to have both pot and stove in one. VERY HAPPY i got both of these. Pot is the perfect size to fire up water or a couple cans of beans. And it sits nicely on top of the Ohuhu Stove. There are probably several sizes of those stoves so if interested, look for the Ohuhu that is 5.3" x 5.3" x 3"H and weights 14.2 oz - that's the one that fits inside this pot.

    Hab den Topf spontan bestellt für eine anstehende Radwsnderung in Schweden. Bin nach erster Begutachtung und Tests im heimischen Garten sicher. Dieser Topf übersteht jeden Outdooreinsatz. Auf den ersten Blick wirkt er schwer, 775ml. version mit 375gr. Aber er soll ja auch stabil jeden Einsatz im Rucksack überstehen also okay. Toll das sich der Deckel fest verschließen läßt über den Klappgriff, so lässt sich sicher darin etwas Zunder transportieren oder Müsli. Hab ihm gleich richtig Feuer unterm Boden gemacht und zwar aufm Grill. Bestimmt 900 Grad Glut ließen den knappen Liter Wasser unter sechs Minuten sieden. Jetzt sieht er richtig gut aus. Kann ihn nur empfehlen und würde ihn immer wieder kaufen wenn er mir abhanden kommen würde.
