Used daily for over 6 years.
I used these nearly every day for more than 6 years. I initially bought these for backpacking and general camping while I was going to school. They worked so well that I ended up using them for every day cooking in addition to any outdoor activity. They’ve been used over campfires, gas stoves, liquid fuel stoves, and even an electric range. I still have them and they work just as well as the day I bought them. I highly recommend these.

Alpine™ Stowaway Pot 775ml
Absolutely fantastic. 775ml is about 3 cups and boils up enough water for ramen and freeze dried goods. I haven’t cooked any real meals in it yet, but I’m sure it’ll come clean like my other MSR pots. The handle is good, I don’t usually flame scorch my pots (hint they make steel wool for a reason). I don’t understand the “Uber ultralight need” for titanium, you’ll get more mileage from the stainless. You can’t go wrong buying one of these - do it, you’ll thank me and MSR.

Best camping and boating pots
Best camping and boating pots I have used in my lifetime. I have bought them for my kids and grand kids! I found my first small pot at an old campsite and with heavy cleaning it is still in use today! Thanks!!!

Best pots there are
Owning all 4 of them; 1600 Can store a complete kitchen inside. 1100 Is my favorite. It just fits the sides of a 10L Berghauss side pack. 775 Is a solid 1 person pot. 475 Never took it out. It spends its life at the windowsill. Overall: ++ Wide base, good handle, secure lid, bombproof, usable on every heat source, usable with every food, dishwasher safe. + Reasonable non-stick if oiled correctly +- None - Some nesting polypropylene bowls would be a nice addition. A slightly wider and lower/sloped 2 liter version would be great, to better flip pancakes/eggs :) -- None Favorite stands for the 1100 and 1600 pots, with a Trangia B25, are: A Trangia Triangle: Low profile. Full simmering control. Windproof. Light weight. A Firebox Nano: A nice wood & alcohol combi. Some simmer control. Light weight. A Bushbox LF: The perfect wood & alcohol combi. It weighs more, but is enables grilling and bbq. And is a very stable platform. Overall the pots weight, is more than worth it due to the functionally that they give.

its very good and it
its very good and it will not tip over if you have it filled and try to pour out the contents. Also if you pour the fluids out at a faster speed it wont dribble over the sides. These were the 2 complaints I kept hearing about. I could see an improvement on the second issue with maybe an indent area on the edge where you can pour the contents and it wont dribble. One last thing that can easily be corrected is to have at least 2 volume markers on the pot. While your at it how about adding a canvas or nylon carrying bag for it.

775ml stowaway pot
I just recieved my 775ml sized stowaway pot and have to say it is built very nicely. The complaints I heard was it doesnt pour out cleanly and runs down the side. Thats true IF you pour slowly. If you pour it out a little faster it does not dribble. Second, the handle isnt sturdy especially when you pour out the contents the pot can collapse on the tilt. That is not true either. I filled it all the way up and with the locking tab slid close to the pot the handle held straight and the pot did not collapse over. I havent cooked anything yet to see if the handle gets too hot or if theres uneven heating so i will have to get back on this .But overall its compact size and stainless metal seems it will work excellent out in the field.

It’s ok but…
I have used the 1.6l pot for a little over a year now while camping in the uk; together with the pocket rocket. I’ve found heat transfer across the bottom of the pot very poor, meaning unless you are only using this to boil water, you get a hotspot on the bottom that burns almost anything even at low stove temperatures. Pouring out is also tricky as the handle isn’t stable. The only use where I’d say this would excel is for melting snow in the winter or only boiling water, not cooking. It seems well made and the lid locking handle is a nice feature, but I’ve found it’s not that versatile.

Alpine stowaway pots
Good solid pots. Handles are a great feature, no more lost pot grippers. I would purchase again.

Great Design but Heavy
I absolutely love this pot design. I’d just really like to see it in titanium. The latching lid is my favorite feature. Being able to latch the lid down not only enables it not to rattle around in my pack but I can also store leftovers inside of it. Just wish it was a fraction of the weight. I’d love to see this classic design made in titanium.

Great pot unless you want to pour water
Use for backpacking and home use. Great durable little pot but I always loose a great deal of water to the floor or counter.
