Snow Peak Trek 900 Titanium Cookset

I've been using my cookset for about six years and it has been great. This has been my primary cookset for solo trips. Living in Yosemite, I spend a lot of time backpacking and this cookset has been excellent. The mesh bag does fit too loose, but I tied a little knot into the bottom and that did the trick. I usually pack a fuel canister, stove, coffee and windscreen into the cookset while traveling. I think it's too small for two people, but perfect for homemade dehydrated meals for solo trips.

The pot is fantastic, no question! The major gripe I have is the idiotic lid construction. Why would you ever design a pan where you have to squeeze the handle to keep it in place?! If you ever try to cook with it, or use it as a frying pan, you WILL be sorry. Sooner or later, there will be a moment where you aren't squeezing it quite tight enough, and the hinge will collapse, leaving your food all over. All they have to do is switch this design to the most intuitive one, that every other pan uses (where you squeeze to unlock it), and this is a 5-star set.

Best lightweight cook set I've seen! Handles didn't get hot for me, and I enjoy the extra capacity as compared to the smaller "solo" sets. My only grumbles are minor: there are both metric and imperial volume measures on the side of the pot, but no tick marks for common measurements like 16 ounces (2 cups water for your freeze dried dinner). Instead, use the 0.4 liters mark. And bring a thick rubber band to hold the pot and lid together in your pack, because the included stuff sack doesn't hold them tight enough to prevent rattling noises.

I would buy again and recommend to any friend.

I purchased the 900 to mainly accompany my 1400 & Solo to make a nice, lightweight group cook set. Very functional as a stand alone however the frying pan is even smaller than the 1400 & is best used as a drinking & measuring cup. The mesh storage sack is a nice addition. To me there is no better metal available than titanium for backpacking cook sets & Snow Peak leads the way for quality, selection, & innovation.

This may be a good buy if you are an occasional backpacker, but if you live outdoors for your job or because you can this is too narrow to cook in every night, you just have to be too careful when stirring and it is easy to burn food. Clean up is a cinch but I'll skip this for a wider pot that weights maybe an ounce heavier.

Like the others who have reviewed this cook set, I have nothing negative to say. Great for measuring and even better for storing the pocket stove of your choice + canister (and more), this setup is versatile, strong, and featherlight. Shines as a solo outfit. If you hit the trail hard, light, and stag, this gear will carry its weight.

This pot works well for me since my Giga Power stove and a large canister fit perfectly inside. The Giga Power windscreen also nests perfectly under the pot when stored in the mesh bag (included). I don't mind the quirky lid/pan when it starts to rattle when water boils since it's just telling me that my water is ready. If you ignore what it's telling you the lid will pop off though. The handles will get hot if the flame is too high, but if you keep the flame low the handles stay cool enough to grab and you use fuel more efficiently. The lid/pan makes a good plate to eat from, but it's too small to do any serious cooking.

Not much to say except that its the perfect lightweight set for anyone going solo that appreciates having more than just a mug. The lid that doubles as a frying pan & plate is brilliant, and I've yet to have any problems with the lid popping off. To top it all off, it came in under weight, my set, with mesh bag weighs 5.83oz as opposed to the listed 6.2! Versatile, and lighter than the manufactures listed weight = an ultralighters dream!

Great pot,perfect size.I actually like the frypan/lid but I lost mine.
Anyone know where I can get one?

This little pot is great for solo travel, but we've used it on our trips for two as well, serving as our only cookware. The lid usually gets left behind in favor of a cheap pie-pan cutout lid because the Snow Peak lid is cumbersome and I never use it for actual cooking (too small to fry more than a couple ounces of food at a time). One of the best features are the easily readable internal measuring marks as others have mentioned. The handles can get hot if you use a stove with a bigger burner, but I usually have at least a light pair of gloves along (and not really a problem for small canister or alcohol stoves).

i have had this set for two years and used it on multiple trips. holds up great in the pack and out. two people it gets somewhat rough at times just really depends whos the hungriest. i can put a primus bottle of fuel and the stove along with salt pepper and sugar.the mesh sack works great if you wrap the rope around it a few times, and you know nothing is coming out. highly recommend, its well worth the money.

it's titanium, it's snow peak, it's exactly what I need. my sole complaint is that the lid/frying pan just kinda flops onto the pot... I wish it could clip in for easier packing... but it's nothin to cry about... I think I'll just sport a rubber band like one of the other reviewers mentioned.

I use this cook set with a small alcohol burner and it works great. I have a Snowpeak H800 double wall mug that nests perfectly inside still leaving plenty of room for a small stove and a small camp kitchen towel. I use the lid as a small pan to heat water for tea. I wish the lid would latch securely to the cook pot for transport, but the little mesh bag works well enough for that purpose. Super light weight with a nice capacity. Water boils quickly with the lid on.

this may be the perfect pot for the fast-n-light crowd. a MSR regular or shorty fuel canister and my SnowPeak GigaPower stove fit into the pot. the SnowPeak windshield (or my lighweight knock-off of it) nests over the pot lid. the pot itself is a nice size for cooking/eating a meal, while also making a awesome mug for that morning coffee or evening hot chocolate. i've had this set for several years, and it's the only piece of gear that over this period that i haven't changed out for something better or lighter

I like it. So far I've used it for a five day hike in King's Canyon and a shorter hike along the Buffalo River. It weighs next to nothing and is graduated so you can use it for measuring. The handles work well and do not get too hot. It is designed to hold a typical canister stove and fuel canister and is just large enough to fit an MSR Whisperlight inside. Its mesh carrying bag makes a good scrubber. The base is just large enough to sit securely on top of my Whisperlight, but if it were any smaller I would be worried about it slipping off of the supports and into the flame. The lid is worthless as a frying pan but makes a great plate/bowl.

This is one fantastic cookset. Weighs almost nothing and does everything it's supposed to do. You can't go wrong with this one.

The problem I had with this unit was the top popping off when the unit started to boil. The handles also get hot. I also have an aluminum one with rubber coated handles that cooked faster, and the handles stayed cool. And the top stayed on.
