About Wenzel
When the sun rose on the first American family campers more than 120 years ago, Wenzel was there, helping families escape, recharge, and reconnect. Today, the company still gives families the opportunity to break free from modernity and enjoy the rustling leaves and babbling brooks of the great outdoors. Wenzel's mission is to make it as easy as possible to hit the campsite, with compact, easy-to-pitch tents and sleeping bags that unroll into roomy, warm cocoons. Wenzel also makes camp pads that smooth out the rough forest floor, making outdoor experiences more comfortable than ever. Most importantly, the company is an ambassador to the outdoors, beckoning families to return to the place where memories are made and souls are fueled.

There;s nothing special about this kit. It's thin aluminum, made in China, has some sharp edges and really doesn't live up to my expectations from Wenzel. If you're a once a year camper it's fine for one person, but not for more! If you need something that's sturdy and durable I suggest you purchase something in a higher price and quality range. I'm using mine in a survival kit and it should do just fine for that purpose.

I bought this mess kit in a local hardware store, and i can legitimately say that it was a bit of a waste of money, space and materials. the hanging billy pot is too shallow, so if you try to fill it with water and hang it on a tripod over the fire (like how it seems to be intended), the water can easily spill out and douse your fire. the pot does fit inside the pan somewhat, but not well.

if you plan on using this for simply the pan and lid/plate or for the plastic cup, it'll do the job, though i'm not saying that it will do so well.

final verdict: waste of money. save your cash up and buy a better kit. this one isn't worth the headaches.

1.0 out of 5 stars cheap chinese knockoff, May 15, 2011

It is nothing more than a cheap,Chinese knockoff. I was expecting a lot more quality than I received. Also, seeing the picture, it appears there should be another piece to the kit. It shows a piece that appears to be a plate, as if it would go on top of the kit, under the handle. Overall I would not buy another, or recommend it to anyone else.
