Customer Reviews
Good pot for coffee or water...
This is a very good aluminum pot, which I mostly use just for heating water. It works okay for brewing coffee. The handles are strong (a bit stiff at first), and the lid fits snugly.
Disappointed
I was disappointed in this item. It is more like a camping kettle than something you use at home. Guess I should have taken more notice of the title. Anyway, it has been sent to the RV and I got a better one from Kmart for hubby to use in the house.
Good for occasional use
Took it camping for a few days. Worked well for something that will only get used once in a while. Heats up quickly, to include the handles. They are extremely hot by the time the coffee is ready. One great thing is that the pot keeps the coffee hot for a long time after you take it off the heat. We are satisfied with the purpose.
It makes coffee
Pretty cool. It's fairly sturdy and it made as decent a cup of coffee as you can get from a percolator.
But just in case anyone doesn't know this already, a "wire handle that folds in for compact storage" does not stay "cool to the touch" when those handles are connected to an aluminum container holding boiling water.
Aluminum and wire has a tendency to transfer heat.
Good Little Camping Aide
We bought this for a quick weekend trip. It's very handy and delivers in terms of durability over an open flame. It's a bit messy in terms of spurting water during the brewing process, so I wouldn't recommend it for the stove. All around - worth the $10.
