Review on KingCamp Camping Cookware Set - Non-Stick Aluminum Gear For Outdoor Cooking & Backpacking With Tableware by Daniel Robinson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Large camping cookset for a family of 4!

Was searching for a larger sized camping cook pot set that would work for a family of 4. Most everything on Walmart is really tiny. Happy I found this one. The pots are well made, very light, and of course very compact. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the three pots are full size, just like what you'd find in a typical kitchen set! Combined with the grill we already have, we were able to use these pots to cook full homemade meals on our camping trip. (Used a typical green metal fold up camping stove) We never used the pan. No issues with handles melting or anything like that, but if you aren't careful, I can see how it could happen.Being there were four of us, we never used the 2 plates to eat, but they were helpful to cut up steak on. The bowls were great. They hold a surprising amount of food for how little they look (plenty for a full meal) and the folding spoon was a lifesaver, as it worked well for stirring and serving. Everything was easy clean- the bowls, plate, and spoon even more so; they all wiped out very easily and the little scrubber pad was a nice bonus.Although we mostly used this set for glamping, we did take the larger pot, spoon, and bowls on a deep woods hike with a jetboil and mountain house food that we had in a can. By pouring 2 rounds of boiling water into the pot from the jetboil combined with the proper amount of freeze dried stroganoff, then putting the lid on- we had a great meal in the deep woods by a river. (got a better deal on full cans and used the food sporadically throughout our trip vs those easy pouches, so it was nice to be able to use this set on a deep woods hike!)The only reason I gave this review 4 instead of 5 stars is the carry bag. It is so critical to have, however after just having completed our first trip the bottom is already starting to rip out. Major bummer. Hopefully we can find a better quality bag that fits this set.

Pros
  • Very compact.
Cons
  • The non-stick coating on the cookware may peel off after multiple uses
