Alpine Deluxe Kitchen Set

I purchased this on Amazon in the early spring, and had to wait two months before I could actually use it. I love this kit! I mostly go car camping, and I've been trying to condense as much of my gear as possible. I wanted a dedicated camping kitchen set so I wouldn't have a bunch of loose kitchen tools floating around in my pack. This set is great as a starter set, and has most of what I need. I almost bought the GSI set specifically for their collapsible tongs. However, the MSR kit has tons of extra room, so I just bought the tongs separately and added them to this kit. I also added a cheap can opener, and I replaced the included salt shaker with a GSI Spice Missile. All the extra room in the case is probably my favorite part of this kit. The collapsible tools work pretty well. Nothing melted on my camp stove, and nothing folded up while it use. But the tools are meant to be light and portable, not extremely durable. The knife was good for cutting up carrots and cheese, but I wouldn't try to process any fish or game with it. I put soap in one bottle, and oil in the other, and I didn't have any leaks. I would definitely recommend this kit to everyone, except for solo ultralight backpackers. This kit might be good for group backpacking, where gear can be shared, but it's probably a bit too big for just one or two people.

Pros: Very comprehensive kit, high quality items with a nice case. Cons: Price... but it's tolerable. Bottom line: I would recommend this kit for your camping (glamping) needs. I purchased this kit after returning MSR's medium-sized kit. That kit has a roll-up cutting board, which is absolutely useless (and immensely frustrating). This one has a much better non-flexible cutting board that folds in half instead of rolling up. If you're considering the two, get this kit. I augmented the kit with a small bottle of bio-friendly liquid soap (or you could just use one of the included squeeze bottles), and a scrubbing cloth. I used one of the bottles for some cooking oil. I highly recommend you put your cooking oil squeeze bottle into a ZipLock style bag. I have yet to see a bottle that doesn't leak a little bit. I also put a small bundle of toothpicks in the kit - handy for cooking and, well, picking your teeth. And, there's also room for a few sets of eating utensils in the case as well. Overall, great kit.

MSR makes good gear. This is a relatively small pack that fits into my gear bags for car or motorcycle camping nicely. The right tools for cooking make a big difference in the satisfaction of the cook during meal prep. Sure, I could probably get by with a big spoon. I have. This contains a well thought out set of tools. Most are folding so they become full size. They are a durable plastic so they function and are easy to clean. There is a chef style knife that is thin so it cuts well and stain resistant steel. I added a small knife sharpener to this set. There is room to add other small items (plastic bags, spices, foil) if you pack carefully. I like the small container as it keeps things organized. I haven't used this enough to satisfy a perfect rating. So far so good...

This kit is just about perfect. It is not necessarily too big for the lightweight backpacker or too small for the back country gourmet. The kit is packed only about half full and there is enough room to add a good amount, but all of the cooking essentials are already there. The extra space could be filled with things like waterproof matches, LED light etc., to make a bit of a cooking survival kit. Individually, the knife is not anything that special, but is better than I expected and comes very sharp. The picture gives a very good indication of what you are getting, but you can't see the clip-strap. I was a bit hesitant to buy this kit at $55 so I waited until it went on sale a bit, but honestly I don't think its possible to put together a better camp cooking set for around $50. This is a well thought out product worth every penny. I could not find this information on the product page so I determined it myself. MEASURES 9.5" x 7" x 3.5" WEIGHT: 1.2 pounds

Neat kit all in a zip case for those of us who like to stay organized in the woods. Several of the items will be very useful--others not as much--for instance I'll use the spatula but not the rather large scoop/spoon or the corkscrew (does anyone bring glass bottles of liquid out backpacking??), but those can go in the "car camping" box. There's room in the case to put more stuff so I imagine having all my kitchen and grooming essentials except for the stove/fuel/pans in one place, with a useful strap to hang it from a branch. I'm not sure I would pay full price for it but I was lucky to buy it "reconditioned", which seemed cheaper than collecting the items I wanted individually!

Nice but I regretted buying because ozark trail makes almost the same kit with 2 times the stuff and at half the price. Like I said I love it but over priced for sure.

I bought this to pair with my camp cooking set. I decided to buy this rather than the implements separately. I can carry just the spatula or w/e if I want but if I have the space it's nice to have the whole set. Good quality stuff and appreciate having the knife and everything else. I find the cutting board kind of awkward (it's folded in half) I personally would have preferred just a small cutting board that was one solid piece. I also had some space to stuff some other items in like mats for the heat and a few other items.

This is a nice kit for car camping, or even canoe camping. We are bringing it kayak camping because I love to cook real food while camping, however it's NOT lightweight and the case is a hard shelled case so I'm a little nervous about fitting it in my pack. However, because it's so durable, I think I can just leave it out in the dry storage well and it will likely be just fine.

Tenia mucho tiempo buscando algo compacto, comodo y de buena calidad. De primer instancia me parece una buena bolsa protectora muy resistente por fuera, en el interior cabe perfectamente cada articulo y queda espacio para agregar algunas cosas extras que pudieras necesitar, el material de los articulos me parece un poco fragil y creo que sera de cuidado su manejo pero tomando en cuenta que es un set para salir de campamento me parece que va a funcionar bien. Aun no lo uso, pero creo que va a cumplir mis espectativas. Relación Calidad Precio es excelente. Ya actualizare despues del primer uso de campamento.

5 items missing. Poor show . Returned.

Ein gut ausgestattetes Küchenset. Man bringt damit mal Ordnung in den Fundus der Küchenutensilien für Outdoor. Das etwa 19x27cm Falt-Schneidbett, Schöpfer und Bratwender sind hervorragend. Das Spültuch saugt enorm. Zwei Fläschchen mit Ausgießer sind z.B. ideal für Öl und Spüli. Die Verschlüsse des etwas kleinen Zweifach-Gewürzstreuers gehen etwas streng, sie schützen aber die Gewürze zuverlässig vor Feuchtigkeit. Eine kleine Spülbürste mit Schaber ist auch dabei. Das wirklich scharfe Küchenmesser im Santoku-Stil mit Schneidenschutz ist besser als erwartet. Ob ich dann alles aus dem Set incl. die Käsereibe/Sieb und den Flaschenöffner/Korkenzieher auch immer im Rucksack wirklich dabei haben werde, bezweifle ich. Ideal ist es aber als Grundausstattung für ein kleines Reisemobil, Basecamp oder für Touren mit Fahrrad und Anhänger oder Kanu - alles wo die Küchenausstattung nicht ganz spartanisch sein muß. Immerhin wiegt das Set ein klein wenig mehr als die angegebenen 640g. Wer gleich weniger kaufen will - MSR bietet auch zwei kleinere Küchensets an. Auf jeden Fall ist in der Box noch Platz für das eigene Besteck, eine Zippertüte für ein kleines Schwämmchen, wo dann auch die Bürste, Spültuch und Spüli mit reinkommen... Übrigens, die Klapputensilien kann man zurückklappen, wenn man die Griffe bei der Riffelung zusammendrückt - achten Sie auf die kleinen Pfeile am Griff. Steht leider nicht in der Beschreibung!

This is a great set, except for the bottle opener/corkscrew which is heavy and mediocre in design. The rest of the set is well designed, functional, and doesn't weigh very much. The knife is very sharp and light, I also like that the knife sheath stays on very well. You can buy many (perhaps all) of these items individually. Some people have complained on reviews for the individual cutting board that it doesn't lay flat, but there is an easy (albeit temporary) fix for that. Simply over bend the board (by about 1 1/2 inches from centre at each end, and flex it a few times, and it will lie perfectly flat, however, after it has been folded up and put back in the case, and when you take it out, it will not lie flat again. Simply over bend and flex it again. It only takes a few seconds, is easy to do, and it lets the cutting board lie perfectly flat. Overall, this is a great set, perhaps a little expensive though, but I really like it.

Produto premium. É um pouco pesado e volumoso pra levar em trilha, a case possui um acabamento soft e de extrema qualidade. Os itens são muito bons e leves. Namorei um bom tempo até abaixar o preço é pegar um cupom de desconto.
