Got mine for $ 7.84. The DZO cup is better and comes with a lid as well and fits both. Another good option is the Pathfinder small cook cup and sleeves over the Stanley set almost directly with less than a 1/2" space at the bottom. This is my preferred setup. Two cook setups that mesh together perfect with lids. You can do a lot with those two.
Pathfinder cup slides over the Stanley and is part of my set. I slide the lids on top of one another and strap it all together with a velcro strap with all the steel wool and can opener, etc. Inside. I like the plastic cups so, I keep them in there with some tea as well. Nice tight little package.
Seen this great video about 6 months ago and you inspired me into getting the cook set, brilliant, love it, watched it again and learnt even more, with so many combinations and ideas, excellent, funny tho, looking through the comments half the world are only interested in where they can get the cook set at a better price, I thought it was all about your presentation and great ideas, well done Sir,
have had a stanley set for a couple years now. recently accured the esbit cookset w / a alcohol burner. have been playing with the esbit stove & fry pan, along with heating a mre entree & boiling eggs in the stanley. main reason is experimenting on a warm / priming way for the alcohol burner in cold weather.
That Stanley adventure cook set is awesome. I don't use the 2 cups that came with mine though. Instead I put a can of fuel like the one you used, old GI style can opener, a small Gerber folder, small bottle of camp soap, a compressed camp towel (un openned it's about the size of a poker chip) a piece of green scrubby, a BSR 3000 stove and it's nested in a Walmart version of that GSI cup. I also bought a 3 pack of the diddy bags at Walmart and use the smaller if the 3 to store the whole thing in. Everything I could possibly need right there in one package.
Really glad I found this video. I just bought this Stanley cup on clearance, and was working through some options for a kit. You pretty much answered all the silly little questions I had going through my head. Great review!
Excellent video. Got the Stanley Cook Set for my Boy Scout troop for a backpacking trip down in Southern California. Durable, practical and worked like a dream. Really appreciate all the different options you showcased here - very helpful.
At 7:04 in your video you show how the fuel canister drops into the cup. So I bought the stove, cook set, and fuel canister. However my fuel canister doesn't go all the way down. It stops at where the cup slightly shrinks down near the top. I bought a different fuel canister than what you show. What I bought is a Gas One canister. It has a diameter of 3.553" at its base. Great video with lots of info - thank you!
It is true that there are slight differences in the dimensions of isobutane fuel canisters. As you have learned, some have a base diameter that is too large to allow the canister to fit all the way to the bottom of this Stanley cook kit.
Kind of a late reply but I’ve recently been playing with a Stanley adventure cook set myself. I learned from waypoint survivals channel that you can separate the green cups from two and make 4. They are double wall cups you just need to carefully saw around the top of each cup to separate them then you’ll have 4 cups that still nest. A little sandpaper and a lighter to clean up the rough edges and then you’ve doubled your cups
@@FloridaBoyBushcraftSurvival yes it is more of a hack designed around having extra cups for friends and what not, but anyways I like some of your content keep up the good work and thank you
I keep trying to talk myself into changing the cook set, but this really is the best option for me. It's good for 1 or 2 people, so whether I'm solo or not I don't have to swap out systems. The only thing I don't like is that the GSI handles don't work well as a coffee mug, but I also like the flexibility of the pot handles.
Yeah, it’s been the core of my one man grab and go kit for a while now. It’s cheap, durable and simple. I put a bandanna around the pot then nest it in the cup then put the whole thing in a cut off cotton sock with a stainless steel fork and spoon. Solid, cheap and easy. The bandanna has a lot of uses. I’ll lay it out as a mat for stuff while I’m getting ready to cook, fold it to use as a pad for grabbing handles, cleaning up, pre-filtering and boiling water, etc…
Walmart also sells a drinking cup lid that can work on cup or Stanley cook set . The lid has a rubber O-ring and a flip cap so you could walk and carry it and not lose your drink.
Very Nice Concepts "FlordaBoy" I use a scrub and a Non stick Foil. Wonderful Idea of the stove concept. Very good insight and Utilization of space and room. Thank you for the share. with a wonderful product without destroying it.!
Stanley adventure cook set was one of my original preps. a few years back . I was revisiting old & new videos to see if I could learn some new tricks . Your video is still one of my favorites on the subject ... and I watched a boat load . I also set up a canteen cook kit like yours ... thanks for all the tips . Best regards from Daytona Beach .
Really nice tips for this piece. I just picked one up on clearance from Target for $10.50. Now I have a few different ideas for how to pack it. Thanks.
You can cram these things full. I add cloth pellets. cotton starter, little Bicks, personal cleenix = butt wipe, p-38 openers . water tabs! Love these things!
love it.! .. outside the box …. make it fit 4 u … so cool … I was thinking that I don't need the orange stove case … ditch the case. .. I just through my orange case away. thanx so much for sharing … you did help me!
My fravorite kit, by far, is the military canteen cook set, but I've really enjoyed the Stanley Kit, as well. Though I am no a lover of the green cups. I don't like plastic in the woods.; But as versatile as the Stanley Kit is, I keep finding even more ways to use the Pathfinder Bottle kit. The complete version that has two cups, two lids, an alcohol burner, a stove, a pot stand, and a fish mouth spreader. The steel bottle, a cup, a cup lid, and the stove will even fit perfectly in the military canteen cover. And I can hang the cup and/or the bottle over a fire using fish mouth spreaders. This was genius. I keep clinging to my military canteen cook set out of nostalgia but I've reached the conclusion that this is better because it's really the same thing, only modern. This also lightens the Orca bag I replaced the Pathfinder bag with considerably. All that remains in it is one cup, one lid, the alcohol burner, and the pot stand. I can even load a stove and fuel into the Stanley, and it slides in perfectly, along with an Esbit stove and cup sit, and still have a large pocket for all sorts of goodies. But if I'm by myself, I just don't need it all, so the Stanley, the gas and gas stove stay home. It's simply what I need least. I don't much like gas, anyway. It's bad for the environment, it hisses, and I'm simply not in a hurry in the woods. I like slow and easy. But I have a BUNCH of gas stoves, and even stoves that need three types of cannisters, and three kinds of gas. I have no idea why. Anyway, Stanley has actually fallen to fourth, maybe fifth, in a way, at least when I'm alone because there are so many ways to use the Pathfinder gears than I can make at least three full kits from all the parts, and they all work better for me than the Stanley.
@@FloridaBoyBushcraftSurvival hahaha no sweat. I just bought the 1.1 set because it was on sale. Can’t wait to start backpacking! Thanks for your videos
Dude, that was terrific. You provided so many ideas and variations. Goat Mumbler turned me on to these Stanley cooksets and many others have sold me on them. And I like the cups as well. Good to have for sharing with another person. I haven't purchased one yet, but will when I can and they're on sale again. I saw Steven Kramms videos on making rice based recipes. In order to get some practice I figured I could use them at home.... on the stove of course.... as I don't intend on creating an open pit fire in the kitchen :)
At the end of the video, you show the green cup on bottom, and the canister upside down on top. A FMS300T Fire Maple fits nicely in the green cup under the canister. Because the canister is tapered, a bail also fits down there. That's what I do. The bail is made from a SS bicycle spoke. 1 green cup + micro stove + bail + gas all fit inside. I did drill 2 small holes at the top of the cook pot for the bail.
First thing I did was get rid of that plastic tab and replace it with a key ring. That way I can use the container over a camp fire too if desired. I plan on making a bail for mine when I get a chance.
Great video. Ive never bought one as i always wondered about what would fit in it. This just answered all that. They are still around £25 here in the UK but i think its a no brainer. And i use that little stove in one of my other kits too. Thanks. 😎
There's a quality duplicate copy of the $15 GSI Glacier mug at Walmart for about $4. It's usually located near the Stanley kit. Most expensive gear today is made in China, and the Chinese manufacturers sell the copies to other sellers such as Walmart. Thanks for posting the video.
I've found that the pot nests even better in a Toaks 750ml ti pot, which I use to heat water, pour into the Stanley pot for whatever I'm making, and heat more water for a drink. I use the Toaks pot as a cup, and the insulated cups stay at home. A trangia & pot stand(cheap knockoff) fit inside the pot along with a lighter and there is still room for more.
I got a few small collapsible silicone cups at a grocery store for a dollar that I carry with this exact setup. They are the exact size of the bottom of the cup and sit perfectly in a dry bag.
I have a set up with the stanley and a cup just like the one you have but from walmart for 5 bucks along with a tiny cast iron pan. Been my set up for bushcraft cooking for a while and pretty happy with it
I likes the scrubbie Idea...but I have to do mine in a different way with the set up I got with the Stanley and Pathfinder pot...but works darn great with the Stanley and Ozark Trail Cup...PERFECTO!
For those folk who use Tatonka instead of GSI the pot nests slightly better in a Tatonka mug. The Stanley lid also fits the Tatonka mug. I bought a Pathfinder stainless steel lid for the Tatonka mug but it (the lid) was slightly too big. It does, however fit the Stanley pot so if you wanted to do a mod and fit a bale to the pot, swapping the lids is the solution and you wouldn't have to modify the lid as it already has two cut outs to accommodate the bale. Dave
The cups are double walled. If you want, you can cut just below that seam and separate the inside and outside parts, clean up the edges, and you still have two cups they only take up the space of one
This video is absolutely brilliant! The best video of this product I have seen. It inspired me to subscribe to your channel and I can't wait to start watching more of your video's!
Wow, great informative video, one which I'm sure I will watch numerous times. Thank you for sharing the multiple configurations/combinations for the Stanley cook set. And the little one cup container/lid from dollar store is a real plus. Happy camping to you!
Thanks for the vid. I really like mine but the one beef I have is the narrow body tapering to even narrower bottom. Many stove pot stands are too big across to support it. I too have some GSI Glacier cups. Stanley sells the pot lids separately for $10 each now(I bought 2 when they were $6 each) that fit the GSI cup as you showed.
After finding your channel and you showing the Stanley adventure cookset, I found one and picked it up. Haven't used it yet but its definitely ready to go once I pick up a stove for it. You may want to pick up a Stryker 200. I bought one as its cheaper then the jet boil and its multi fuel.
I have replaced the melty handle ( if it gets inadvertantly to hot) and replaced it with a KEY RING...this enables you to use a stick to lift lid when hot or during boiling. The green button handle can melt if 🔥 gets a bit too big. A great cooking pot! Ive been using mine daily for instant coffee, and sometimes for soups. A survivalist needs a cooking pot for purifying water. The lid...I've used for a miniature plate for fruit, avocado, a roll, doughnut, etc. I have one and I love it...fits in my back pack great. If you really want to trick it...drill holes at handle lip and opposite side for bailing wire, then you can have ability to hang it near hammock. The bailing wire can be folded under the stanly bottom or nested cup for storage which holds cup in place.😜 A cup fits lid. Let bailing wire fall away from your nose as you drink.
What i did with my GSI cup ,is to place a 112 gms butane fuel inside,which fits well,before ,my ACS nest on it.Then,instead of just attaching a thick rubber to my MSR windscreen,in the side of my ACS,I removed some 14 inches Aluminum and straightened it with HAMMER.,and then wrap it around my ACS[adventure cookse].I fits well.about 35% is tuck in between my ACS/GSI cup due to a 1 to 2 mm gap.I supported it with scotch tape.The content of my ACS:MSR 3 finger stove stabilizer,Bic lighter,one green plastic cup,brs3000 stove,2 gloves,3m scrub and small soap.I also discovered by chance [2] i/2,stainless cup size of GSI cup, that fit well the bottom of my GSI CUP,that will served as a back up in my cooking.
I have the larger pot with the bowls and stuff and it's awesome but I wish it would have came with a frying pan also but after seeing all the different tricks with that I might get one for my kayaking adventures
I use mine with my wood biolight stove. No fuel needed to bring as everything burns, even in a city. Im going homeless for a bit to save. Its lightweight and you can burn all night long, an the stove makes power to charge a internal usb battery pack. It also has a fan to make a smokeless fire vortex and it will keep wet wood burning. I have a pop up tent an my eye on a 40w altra compact triangle that fits in your palm. Can QC3.0 one phone and 2A 18v usb for charhing other crap or phones at the same time. That will recharge a 20,000mAh battery/camp light too or a new mobile 10" lcd screen 1440p. My packs getting to 70lb. Saving for a E-Mountain bike.
I like to drop 1 green cup into the bottom, add a brs 3000 stove with a lighter and whatever else fits into your green cup. Then add a small fuel canister upside-down and it all fits.
Hey Matt ol buddy!! Been a while. Had mine out this past weekend. Probably will again this weekend. Some awesome tips n tricks! Great seeing you again! 🤘🔥🍻
Thanks brother! This is my second favorite cook set after the old canteen cup. Finally getting down to around 90 degrees here so not long before I can go out without a heat stroke...lol
Hello, I'm from Brazil and I loved your video with these valuable tips! Congratulations! I was wondering which GSI Outdoors Glacier Pot to buy: the 20 oz or the 24 oz so it fits so well in the Stanley pot. Thank you very much and congratulations again for the video! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Well here I been wondering what happened to ya and your right here as always. RUclips hasn't been giving me notifications and I found I had been unsubscribed from some that I hadn't but I came over and it shows I am still subscribed and the bell is on 🤔 Anyway, yes I love my Stanley cook set and it definitely has lots of options and easy to pack along. But then so does the wonderful CC. Good to see ya and hope your safe down your way.
But but but...you can usually go to Walmart in the camping section and pick one up right away for $14.97 plus tax and no shipping costs...lol. That's how I got all of mine...and I tell you what, it even cooks pizza. Well at least I think it does, I'm shooting a video today to find out...I will either win, lose, or go back to the coloring book...lol. Fun Fun Fun...Wow Weeeeee!
@@FloridaBoyBushcraftSurvival Busting your chops from South Florida. It will be our camping season soon. While I didn't really need the Stanley cook pot, mine should be arriving today. And it is hella hot out. Hate the fact I have yard work to do.
I tried to like this kit but I couldn't, gave it to my son. I needed a man size pot so I got the 2 bowl cook kit. That pot does more and better. Coupled with the mountain cook kit just for water boiling for cocoa or coffee my mess kit is a beast and pretty light too ..but then again I'm 63 270 I built like an ox. I can carry more then the average guy
Great job my friend you first one I seen on here that like the green cup I like them hot coffee I don’t burn my lips by the way in Canada it is 36$ but I need one keep up the good work
Wal-mart also sells the exact same cup as the GSI cup just different brand but same size for around 5 bucks. and the Stanley cook set is around 14 bucks at Wal-Mart.
PLEASE LIKE, COMMENT & SUBSCRIBE BELOW. I answer all comments...
What's that little stove you have?
If the phrase "BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!" was ever appropriate, it was during this entire video. LOL Well done
Thanks lol
😆 👍
Lol! So true! I bought the french press version but this seems like a must have, too!
The green cup is actually the best item. Keeps your drink/food hot MUCH longer the steel cups.
I like em. I actually use them quite often in the woods....
that good thermal insulation also prevents lip burns
14.97 is reg price at walmart has been for yrs. Bought a backup on amazon less then a month ago for less then 10 bucks. Good video very useful pot
Thanks! I guess Amazon was trying to fool me lol
Got mine for $ 7.84. The DZO cup is better and comes with a lid as well and fits both.

Thank you sir. The price varies a lot, but I like it because you can configure it in so many different ways to suit your trip...
have had a stanley set for a couple years now. recently accured the esbit cookset w / a alcohol burner. have been playing with the esbit stove & fry pan, along with heating a mre entree & boiling eggs in the stanley. main reason is experimenting on a warm / priming way for the alcohol burner in cold weather.
Nice, it works in a number of ways
That Stanley adventure cook set is awesome. I don't use the 2 cups that came with mine though. Instead I put a can of fuel like the one you used, old GI style can opener, a small Gerber folder, small bottle of camp soap, a compressed camp towel (un openned it's about the size of a poker chip) a piece of green scrubby, a BSR 3000 stove and it's nested in a Walmart version of that GSI cup.

Thanks brotha! That scrubbie really holds the whole thing together
The Stanley set is a good little set. I did a mod for the lid, and a bottle holder hooks on the handle to hang over a fire.
It is...I have not seen a reason to modify mine to hang over a fire yet
No mod for the hang. Just close the handle half way and hook on the$3 bottle holder. Your demo with the gas and stove is excellent. Thanks.
For those folk who use Tatonka instead of GSI the pot nests slightly better in a Tatonka mug. The Stanley lid also fits the Tatonka mug. I bought a Pathfinder stainless steel lid for the Tatonka mug but it (the lid) was slightly too big. It does, however fit the Stanley pot so if you wanted to do a mod and fit a bale to the pot, swapping the lids is the solution and you wouldn't have to modify the lid as it already has two cut outs to accommodate the bale. Dave
Great suggestion...thanks
The cups are double walled. If you want, you can cut just below that seam and separate the inside and outside parts, clean up the edges, and you still have two cups they only take up the space of one
Nice I did not know that
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
Great Video!
Thanks. It is a great kit
This video is absolutely brilliant! The best video of this product I have seen. It inspired me to subscribe to your channel and I can't wait to start watching more of your video's!
Thanks! This is a great set and is one of my favorites...
🎉 awesome ideas 🎉🎉😅thank u
You’re welcome 😊
I have the same setup but use the BRS stove so I can nest a green cup, stove and gas.
Nice
Matt,Thanks you just taught this Old Dog a new Trick
Late response but thanks!
Like a bools and cups magician.
Lol...I never looked at it like that before...
Wow, great informative video, one which I'm sure I will watch numerous times. Thank you for sharing the multiple configurations/combinations for the Stanley cook set. And the little one cup container/lid from dollar store is a real plus. Happy camping to you!
Thanks! This is a great kit, you can configure it in so many ways
You my friend deserve every bit of that ad revenue.
Thanks lol.
Thanks for the vid. I really like mine but the one beef I have is the narrow body tapering to even narrower bottom.
Many stove pot stands are too big across to support it.
I too have some GSI Glacier cups. Stanley sells the pot lids separately for $10 each now(I bought 2 when they were $6 each) that fit the GSI cup as you showed.
Cool. I made a small mod to my stoves so the Stanley would fit perfectly
Excellent bro i bought ths ages ago I've never used it yet thx great video
Glad I could help. It is really a great set...
After finding your channel and you showing the Stanley adventure cookset, I found one and picked it up. Haven't used it yet but its definitely ready to go once I pick up a stove for it. You may want to pick up a Stryker 200. I bought one as its cheaper then the jet boil and its multi fuel.
Hope you enjoy it! It is a very versatile setup
This is the best thing I ever saw.
Thanks!
I have replaced the melty handle ( if it gets inadvertantly to hot) and replaced it with a KEY RING...this enables you to use a stick to lift lid when hot or during boiling.
The green button handle can melt if 🔥 gets a bit too big. A great cooking pot! Ive been using mine daily for instant coffee, and sometimes for soups. A survivalist needs a cooking pot for purifying water. The lid...I've used for a miniature plate for fruit, avocado, a roll, doughnut, etc.
I have one and I love it...fits in my back pack great. If you really want to trick it...drill holes at handle lip and opposite side for bailing wire, then you can have ability to hang it near hammock. The bailing wire can be folded under the stanly bottom or nested cup for storage which holds cup in place.😜 A cup fits lid.
Let bailing wire fall away from your nose as you drink.
I have never had a problem with the green tab. I may do some mods on mine soon...
That's really a great bargain on a highly versatile cooking set. Thanks for this video and for the link. Cheers!
Any time!
What i did with my GSI cup ,is to place a 112 gms butane fuel inside,which fits well,before ,my ACS nest on it.Then,instead of just attaching a thick rubber to my MSR windscreen,in the side of my ACS,I removed some 14 inches Aluminum and straightened it with HAMMER.,and then wrap it around my ACS[adventure cookse].I fits well.about 35% is tuck in between my ACS/GSI cup due to a 1 to 2 mm gap.I supported it with scotch tape.The content of my ACS:MSR 3 finger stove stabilizer,Bic lighter,one green plastic cup,brs3000 stove,2 gloves,3m scrub and small soap.I also discovered by chance [2] i/2,stainless cup size of GSI cup,
that fit well the bottom of my GSI CUP,that will served as a back up in my cooking.
Awesome. These are so versatile that you can really do a lot with them...
I have the larger pot with the bowls and stuff and it's awesome but I wish it would have came with a frying pan also but after seeing all the different tricks with that I might get one for my kayaking adventures
The larger one is great for camp use also. This one can stow very tightly...
@@FloridaBoyBushcraftSurvival very true and space and weight is a factor in a kayak
I use mine with my wood biolight stove. No fuel needed to bring as everything burns, even in a city.
Im going homeless for a bit to save.
Its lightweight and you can burn all night long, an the stove makes power to charge a internal usb battery pack.
It also has a fan to make a smokeless fire vortex and it will keep wet wood burning.
I have a pop up tent an my eye on a 40w altra compact triangle that fits in your palm. Can QC3.0 one phone and 2A 18v usb for charhing other crap or phones at the same time.
That will recharge a 20,000mAh battery/camp light too or a new mobile 10" lcd screen 1440p.
My packs getting to 70lb. Saving for a E-Mountain bike.
Wow, good luck out there. Seems like you have it figured out...
Good review and ideas 😉👍 thanks for that, Smith 🎣🎣
Thanks! This is one of my favorite kits...
Lots of helpful tips! So many good ideas, clearly explained and demonstrated! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for sharing. 😎
Thanks for watching!
You need to do commercials, BUT WAIT THERES MORE!!! haha nice video!
Working on it! I would love to do commercials lol
It fits the olicamp cup as well.
Nice! I will have to check that out...
I like to drop 1 green cup into the bottom, add a brs 3000 stove with a lighter and whatever else fits into your green cup. Then add a small fuel canister upside-down and it all fits.
Awesome! This is a great kit and very versatile...
For our European friends who don't have GSI. In Europe its the Tatonka mug which fits perfectly. ;)
Thanks for that info!
Great video, you really showed the versatility of that cook set!
Thanks! You can really do a lot with this one...
The Stanley is the ticket !! Buy them all day long at Walmart for 14.97. No idea were the 30 buck price came from?
I have seen them anywhere from $10 all the way up to $30 (Amazon, go figure)
Hey Matt ol buddy!!
Been a while.
Had mine out this past weekend. Probably will again this weekend.
Some awesome tips n tricks!
Great seeing you again! 🤘🔥🍻
Thanks brother! This is my second favorite cook set after the old canteen cup. Finally getting down to around 90 degrees here so not long before I can go out without a heat stroke...lol
Excellent informative review just what I was looking for thanks
No problem...thanks!
I bought this cook set in the UK... Love it...., BUT.. be aware the small 100g Coleman gas canister does not fit inside the pot.
Good to know. The GSI 110g canister fits as does the MSR 110g canister...
@@FloridaBoyBushcraftSurvival Thank you 👍
You can also take a few paper cups, drink from them, and burn them in your fire. Light weight, no frills.
Yes you can...I have done that many times...
Very useful (and insightful) comments. Thank you!!!
You're very welcome!
Hello, I'm from Brazil and I loved your video with these valuable tips! Congratulations! I was wondering which GSI Outdoors Glacier Pot to buy: the 20 oz or the 24 oz so it fits so well in the Stanley pot. Thank you very much and congratulations again for the video! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
The 20oz fits perfectly
@@FloridaBoyBushcraftSurvival Thank you very much!!!
My go to is my Stanley set. I carry it with 1 green cup with my BRS stove in it and gas can up side down and an Ozark cup same size as GSI cup nested
It is a great kit to be sure, love mine
I would pay extra for a deluxe model if it had aluminum cups included.
Definitely...
Oh, but the plastic ones are so great for cocoa or coffee without burning your hands or lips...!
@Jon Perala Yeah, I like them a lot. Metal mugs pick up ambient temps even when insulated, plus they feel awful on the lips.
Dude, you are rockin' that toe gap. Cheers.
Lol...I dont like to were shoes if I can get away with it
Very good vid and well presented. Clever chap.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it
Well here I been wondering what happened to ya and your right here as always. RUclips hasn't been giving me notifications and I found I had been unsubscribed from some that I hadn't but I came over and it shows I am still subscribed and the bell is on 🤔
Anyway, yes I love my Stanley cook set and it definitely has lots of options and easy to pack along. But then so does the wonderful CC.
Good to see ya and hope your safe down your way.
Thanks! RUclips works in mysterious ways sometimes, no worries. I am not going away...lol
But but but...you can usually go to Walmart in the camping section and pick one up right away for $14.97 plus tax and no shipping costs...lol. That's how I got all of mine...and I tell you what, it even cooks pizza. Well at least I think it does, I'm shooting a video today to find out...I will either win, lose, or go back to the coloring book...lol. Fun Fun Fun...Wow Weeeeee!
True...I have seen them anywhere from $10 to $35 depending on where you go. I do not go to Wal Mart anymore....
@@FloridaBoyBushcraftSurvival Because everything at Target is made in the U.S.A.? Or is it that men can use the womans restroom at Target?
@@steves3760 Huh?
@@FloridaBoyBushcraftSurvival Busting your chops from South Florida. It will be our camping season soon. While I didn't really need the Stanley cook pot, mine should be arriving today.
And it is hella hot out. Hate the fact I have yard work to do.
I tried to like this kit but I couldn't, gave it to my son. I needed a man size pot so I got the 2 bowl cook kit. That pot does more and better. Coupled with the mountain cook kit just for water boiling for cocoa or coffee my mess kit is a beast and pretty light too ..but then again I'm 63 270 I built like an ox. I can carry more then the average guy
Lol...to each his own my friend. This kit is good for light stuff...
@@FloridaBoyBushcraftSurvival I am in no way downing this kit it was great but that's Stanley if one don't work 100 percent for ya try another.
@@vinnyavalanche Absolutely brother, there are many, many options out there....
Great job my friend you first one I seen on here that like the green cup I like them hot coffee I don’t burn my lips by the way in Canada it is 36$ but I need one keep up the good work
Thanks! I like the green cups, very handy...
Nice one buddy!Cant wait for this heat to break and more outdoor adventure to start!
Thanks! You said it, it is hotter now than in July lol
great vid brother. I love mine and load it up almost exactly as you do. very versatile little set.
Thanks! Next to my canteen cup kit this is my favorite set...
About $14 at Walmart, too. They also have the SS cup (Ozark brand) for about $5.
That is usually what they cost. Great rig...
Best Stanley cup review yet. I subbed!
Thanks! It is really one of the best out there...
Wal-mart also sells the exact same cup as the GSI cup just different brand but same size for around 5 bucks. and the Stanley cook set is around 14 bucks at Wal-Mart.
They do. I have seen the Stanley anywhere from $10 to $30 but usually around $15
Nicely done!
Thanks! This is a great kit...
