KingCamp 1.2L Stainless Steel Camping Kettle

I haven’t taken this thing camping, I’ve been using this on my glass top stove for French press coffee and tea and it’s the best. No bells and whistles, so it has very little chance of breaking or wearing out. It’s a simple design, and I love. The stainless look is perfect

Nice little kettle. Heats up well and the handle doesn’t get hot when I use with a small gasifier stove. Need to be careful with the lid when pouring, but that really isn’t a big issue if you are paying attention.

This kettle is lightweight and an efficient shape, and the spout isn't so big that it makes it awkward to pack. For backpacking you might want a kettle without the added weight of bamboo handles, but this one is good for car camping. The kettle heats up quickly. It pours pretty well if you don't go too fast. In pouring the bamboo handles are a benefit as it's really best to push down on the lid while pouring both the hold the lid on and to keep the kettle from flipping side to side. The wide opening makes it easy to clean and would allow using the kettle for cooking, not just heating water. The one significant criticism is the brew basket design--the basket is so shallow that, even with the kettle full to maximum, the basket projects into the water less than an inch. Myself, I chucked it and use a mesh tea ball. Perhaps intrepid backpackers cooking in the kettle might use the basket as a steamer but it wouldn't hold much.

I bought this for a recent camping trip. We absolutely love it. I used it on my spirit burner & on over an open fire. It is made well and very sturdy.

Awesome
