I purchased these pans for our boat, as space is limited. As I said, they cook well and stack neatly, but my concern was the handle. On my boat I can use three pans at a time, so when it comes to removing the pans from the burners you have to swap the handle with each pan. Well, the handle is much more difficult to use and position in the pan receptacle than one would think, so I contacted the manufacturer and tried to purchase another handle. The manufacturer, actually the importer...Made In China, told me they could not supply additional handles. I asked what would happen if I broke the handle, or worse yet, lost the handle, could they not supply a replacement? NOPE...no replacement, the only thing I could do is purchase a new set. This is a nice set of pans, but the complete lack of support on the part of the manufacturer/importer makes me question the wisdom of my purchasing decision. An $80.00 set of pans is dependent on a $5.00 handle. Hmmm....

This is a GREAT cookware set to have for the family camping trip! It's made of chef-quality, yet lightweight, stainless steel which makes it very easy to lift and easy to clean as well. It also stacks nice and neatly together so I'm able to store it a cabinet in our tent trailer the cabinet being on the small side and not very deep. On our last camping trip, I was able to cook more than enough food for our family of six, which includes four very hungry boys :) We even prepared a wonderful egg and pancake breakfast, using the smaller pots as mixing bowls (they have slightly rounded bottom edges on the inside making mixing and cleaning very easy) for the pancake batter and scrambled eggs, and then used the 3-quart pot along with the universal lid as a pancake warmer, and boy did that keep them piping hot on a very chilly morning. I highly recommend this set for a family looking for a quality camping cookware set that stores very easily!

This set is awesome. High quality stainless steel, handle is heavy duty, I would use this set in my home, if I didn't like it so much for camping.

It's definetly too heavy for backpacking, but for car-camping, it's just right.

Honest reviews on Stansport Family Cook Set SS

We have used these pans now for 2 years on multiple short and long trips. The pans are great, they stack so nicely. We often just take the large pan, the small, the lid and the frying pan. The problem is the handle. As one reviewer noted, to put it on you have to turn it at a 90 degree angle to the pot. You also have to pull back on a spring latch. We don't have to deal with a campfire as we use a gas cooking stove but just maneuvering is a problem. Overlooking that (which is not easy), when the handle is attached, if you try to pur something out of the pot, it swings in the direction of the handle so you have to be incredibly careful of someone had a lap full of hot food. The swing is only about 30 degrees but it an issue every time you need to pour out of a pan with the handle. I have searched for a different style handle and used my primus one but it is too small. I don't want to have to replace these but I also am tired to fussing with them.

This cookware set is a wonderful set of stainless cookware. It has a very heavy gauge metal, great brushed finish on the interior that is easy to clean and doesn't cause the food to stick like a cheap shiny easily bent stainless pan from a budget dept store. The metal on the outside is polished so the cookware looks like it came out of your nice kitchen set. The only cheesy part of the set is the "multi-lid" which fits all but the largest 2 pans. The handle that everyone comments on is stable and functional but does have a moving part... which means it may break sometime...but that's ok because the pots can be picked up with a cheap $2 Coleman pot holder, available at nearly every budget discount store that sells camping supplies. The cheaper pot holder version fits easily into the designed holder mount on the pans as well as along the rims of the smaller pans. So, in short, I wouldn't worry about the handle problem. Not having handles allows this entire set to be easily stacked/nested inside the 2 largest pans. I was so impressed by the quality of the set I bought 5 more sets for my scout troop. It's that nice, and that affordable.
