Bulin 24/13/11/8/4 PCS Camping Cookware Mess Kit Lightweight Backpacking Cooking Set Outdoor Cook Gear for Family Hiking, Picnic(Kettle, Pot, Frying Pan, Bowls, Plates, Spoon)

I am not a hiker, I used this simply for camping. I wanted something that took up less space in my camping supplies than traditional kitchen essentials. Camping with 4 kids takes up a lot of space simply in sleeping bags, so a compact solution was my desire. The pans were just big enough for practical use, and small enough to prevent food wastage due to making too much. The ladel was perfect for measuring pancake batter. The bowls...well, if you only eat a 1/4 cup of soup, or are a toddler, they would work. pots and pans were great, dishes and bowls, they "work" but I wished there were more of the larger ones and fewer of the smaller ones. A separate set of plates and bowls are on my list for next time, they were just too small, especially for the adults and larger kids. They'd work if there were no other options. Everything cleaned up and stored away nicely for use next time. So, I would rate this as a great set for a family with small kids, or those who don't mind going back for seconds and thirds. Nice set that I will continue to use for each camping trip from here on out.

We are a family of three and these pots work so good for us during camping. Super lightweight you can honestly take this anywhere and everything fits back perfectly in the bag.

I purchased this set and another, almost identical set from another manufacturer for the same price in order to compare them side by side. Both sets included almost identical products, similar bags, etc. the differences being minor details. This set was advertised as having 7 large plates, 7 small plates and 6 bowls (all lightweight, BPA-free plastic). The other set came instead with 6 plates, 6 sets of silverware ( knife, fork, spoon) and 6 8-ounce glasses (all stainless steel, cups have silicon sleeves). The good: This set was lighter weight by 2 1/2 pounds. The lids on this set are superior in design and construction compared to the other set, as is the much more robust and sturdy bracket which holds the handle to the biggest (4l) pan. The kettle in this set is larger, holding approximately one cup more liquid. The bag on this set is also of superior quality and construction. The not so good: This set DID NOT include 7 each of the large and small plates, rather it is 7 total, 3 large (9inch) and 4 small (8 inch) plates. The pans on this set are 1/2 to 1 mm thinner than on the other set (making them slightly lighter in weight and less robust overall), and the handles are looser and have more play (with the exception of the largest pan). In conclusion: still a good value, construction is acceptable and arrived promptly. I am deducting a star for billing it in the description as having 7 of each type of plate instead of seven total. I have not field tested either set yet, but will update my review once I do, and will be posting head-to-head comparison videos of each set, both on initial impressions and another of field tests when I get the chance.

Got the chance to use this set once camping, it is phenomenal for the price! Super high quality and buy this product here on amazon because similar sets will cost you hundreds somewhere else for the same quality. The foldability to top notch, and the design is minimal and fits in about any camping bag. A+ Overall.

The product looks great. Mine was bent durring packaging but Amazon sent out a new one and I dropped off the old one at whole foods. super easy. Can't wait to use the new set up.

Great investment. Solid quality and durability. Well conceived mess kit. Cleans up well and stows away compact and lightweight.We routinely fed six people with this mess kit, two plates and four bowls, more than enough pot and skillet volume. We bought additional fork/spoon/knife combos as the only enhancement.We used the included sponge, wood ash and lake/river water to clean this gear most of the time in the field.We had pyromaniac type wood & propane fires and still the plastic handles and knobs endured. It’s good to turn the handles outboard of direct fire though.No regrets about buying this gear. I recommend it for your adventures!Thanks for reading through. I hope this helps you make an informed decision!~Mahalo

I use these in my home as well as camping. They have held up very well with moderate use. Being able to fit items in others like a Russian doll makes storing incredibly easy and efficient. I have yet to use the dishes. I'm sure their good. Them being white. I'd wash asap to prevent staining. The pan is just big enough to get 2 large chicken breast halves in with little extra room. Room enough to flip at least. The handles are a bit loose. Doesn't impede performance though. When cooking place one side of the handle in the other (like clasping your fingers). That seems to keep it rigid and more sturdy. I've not used the kettle. Everything else working so well. I'm sure it does to.
