I personally think the lid is much more functional being somewhat loose bc it allows you to lift it off pot easily while cooking. One handed operation is key for me. I also have the MSR titan pot. It is very good quality but the lid fits tight and I need two hands to remove. As for the bail handle, I removed mine and slightly bent it a little tighter and now it stays upright for me. Good video. Cheers

[@oatiemoanie]

I've had my 750 for some time now and still love it. Yes, the lid can be a pain once in a while, but it has never been an issue.

[@created4design]

regarding the lid issue you don't like. They made it that way so that when it's boiling hot, you can pull the lid off easily with a stick or something.

[@scottsmith6571]

created4design chop sticks work great with a notch

[@boodzoutdoors9549]

love your reviews bro... so positive and honest all with a hint of humour. strength and honour to you bro

[@jacksonshaver809]

I truely apprciate that your not affraid to mention small issues and give a very informative review. Thank you

[@kevinklein4748]

2:29 "Let's say it's on a stove"... then grabs an entire steel mill.

[@johnmclean5957]

The previous version of this pot had the bail handle at 90 degrees to it's current position - the problem with that was that one side of the bail was exactly where you would naturally try to drink from.

[@elizabethingram9784]

Thanks! I think I’m going to buy this one. I like the bail handle too, in case you run out of fuel and need to use it over a fire. I’ve noticed that some folks do mods to the bail to make it stand upright. I like that when water boils, the lid jiggles. Perfect imperfection. :)

[@randallparker6134]

Thanks for the review. I have the 450 ml cup, the 750 with bail, and the 1600 with frying pan and they all nest together. Also, my trangia fits in the 750.

[@solisoutdoors2219]

If you want to hold the lid down: Put a stick through the lid-handle. So that it doesn’t fly off easily. And you can use the stick to lift off the lid even more easily.

[@OldPackMule]

I've found if you take the bail off and squeeze it gently and put it back on then you have friction on the pivots and it will hold the bail up. Not locked but able to snag with a stick. Yeah, still working on a fix for the lid.

[@Helicaloptera]

Thanks for the review!

[@ellisholcomb2299]

thanks for sharing with us good review thanks for your time I appreciate you take care until next time wish you and your family the best

:-) Thank you taking the time & effort to share *

[@ericjudd9603]

I bought this pot based on this review 1.5 years ago 👍

[@drcsep]

I like all my Toaks pots... great video...

[@DonP_is_lostagain]

that lid issue is a problem with every Toaks pot. I've got 4 toaks pots and they're all the same with the lid issue. It is the ONE thing I wish they'd fix. Nice review as usual.

[@toasty4000000]

I actually like the lid. It goes back on easy when it's freaking hot.

[@pkay1111]

Same thought here. I was hey great minds think alike "_"

[@toadevergreen2561]

I actually hate it. It means that when I am on the go and don't have water to clean my pot out from cooking, I have no way to reliably close the pot to keep food away from my gear. Does anyone have any recommendations for a titanium pot that has a more secure lid fit?

[@scottyplug]

@@toadevergreen2561 If you put it in its bag and tighten the draw string down, it will hold the lid in place in your pack.

[@ShoahBiz]

@@toadevergreen2561 I saw a video where a guy held a little torch lighter to the edge of the lid and took a flathead screw driver to flatten out the lip at the edge of the lid. Makes it fit better. Let me see if I can find the video Edit: here it is kzbin.info/www/bejne/i2Koh3traauZjsk

[@stubbenno1]

Take off the bail handle and bend it, work perfect for me. Its a nice pot, not heavy and not too large. Great review as always!

[@MrOldclunker]

A bit pricey for a metal cup. LOL But the industry loves the fact that people will pay almost anything for a little less.

[@zephyrus7258]

@@MrOldclunkerits not $40 its 29 on amazon, also you can get the same thing in stainless steel for cheaper. Just don't use aluminum to cook with or boil water unless you have to but those are even cheaper

[@scoutingfreegermany]

Absolutley agree with your review. I own the same pot and lid drives me crazy, but all in all my favourite pot! Cheers, Marc

[@Lucy-vx9nn]

I have this one and love it, i have the mug too that i nest inside so never had bail hitting me in the face while drinking problems. I mainly use the bail for hanging it over a fire while cooking, which is why i wanted the bail in the first place. Also never had any issues with the lid it works fine for me how it is, i think id rather have it how it is so its easier to take of while cooking.

[@marcbeauchamp1479]

I been eyeing this and the 450ml cup with lid for quite sometime. Today I finally picked them up. Which is why Im here full stoke to get mine shipped

[@mikepresnell8292]

Awesome! Almost nitpicking but not quite LOL love it !!!

[@shack276]

Nice review Luke, I was looking to buy a new pot this spring. Not sure this is for me tho I like bigger pots but looks like a good product

[@SavageVoyageur]

Love those titanium pots. I have the Snow Peak titanium 700 pot. If you are on the fence with buying a titanium pot, don’t be. These are very strong and light as a feather. If you are going to use this as a cup, get the silicone hot lips so you don’t burn your mouth.

[@reyscottm9]

I have this pot,and I concur with all your points. I would add that the handles are so small that you will ALWAYS burn your hands on them when removing from ANY fire source. Wear gloves!

[@davidphelps2585]

I bought this post after watching your review but have not used as it came today. if you take handle off and squeeze together and put back on you will find handle stays put. you can also take a round file and place a short groove on bail bracket that will hold in place.

[@theblackneon5396]

I usually leave the lid, and it still cooks quick and easy. Even in winter.

[@diarrheachilli2866]

solid review thx

[@paulahavens2764]

love the idea of this pot, I wonder if there is a glove or pot holders you recommend to getting to hold the pot while eating out of. I am assuming you eat out of the pot?

[@daan5361]

I have the Lixada version of this pot and I don't have any issues with the lid. It sits perfectly stable. It might be that it sits a bit deeper in the pot compared to the Toaks

[@AWalkOnDirt]

I want to upgrade my cooking pot. I like my current pot but want an upgrade to titanium. This one looks really good.

[@russellmoore1533]

I have a near identical pot branded Tomshoo, and I bought it for about US$21off ebay.

[@waterfalls4540]

Plan on using this as my coffee cup. Will likely boil water in my larger pot and pour into this to use as a cup. Though the ability to use as a cooking pot, ability to hang over fire, ability to carry around camp at my side while not drinking, multipurpose, multi use is the key to the campdom.

[@thriftysurvivor6117]

I'm glad to say that my Lixada pot has a lid that stays snugly on the pot. In fact, it kind of pops into place. Lixada list's the weight of their 750 ml pot with bail at 128 grams, but I think that's with the pouch. It also had the locking triangle handle on the lid and has graduation marks. I picked mine up on ebay for $24.99, and Amazon has it for $28.99. Both have free shipping. I own both Toaks and Lixada products, and I find the quality to be equal. Toaks has some good prices on some of their products as well. I picked up their 1,600 ml. pot with pan for only $49.95 on Amazon. That's a lot of titanium for that price.

[@JTDOutdoors]

just got one. pop the handle of give it a slight bend inwards and throw it back on amd your golden bail handle doesn't flap around and stays vertical

[@ltf4068]

For the lid can they make it more concave so it sites deeper in the pot and could be used as a bowl. The bail hand, if it was turned 90 degrees and made long enough to loop over the handle so the bottom of the handle would hold it in place and out of the way.

[@oxxnarrdflame8865]

Good review. I love my Toaks pots but the lids, I agree. I think it is that titanium is just slippery than aluminum or stainless steal.

[@Khanclansith]

They could form a flat on one end of the pale handle and punch a cross in the mounting bracket on the side that way pull slightly and turn, locked up, locked to the left, locked to the right.

[@stephenhill6003]

Still using an old pie tin bottom for my lid, but loved the video and miss the butterfly handle when things get hot.

[@losttracks7625]

Gotta get myself one of those 👍

[@thorsbeat]

You can squeeze the cup a bit to secure the lid

[@firstbloodbushcraft8354]

So I just bought the lixada ti 750 mug with bail handle and lid just like this one for half the price and it’s great... the lid stays on and the bail handle doesn’t flop around either. Got it from amazon.ca

[@Adam_Newman]

Hey Luke , what's the best stove for use with esbit cubes ? Thanks

[@THExLAWxMAN]

Hi Luke, do you still use this 750, or went on to new things? I'm thinking about getting one for myself. TKS for any info u can give me.

[@EDCAdventures]

Have the same pot. I like it but the negatives are the same as you mentioned. Also wish those handles were just a touch longer but they work okay.

[@scotthill6807]

I really like all my TOAKS Ti gear. It's good quality at a fair price. Others charge much more for Titanium cook ware. I just wish someone would make a affordable Ti water bottle. S&H to Luke. Thank you for the vid.

[@spartannn3002]

I know you also have a klean kanteen 64 oz. Will the kanteen fit into it? I wanted something this size but want to be able to stow the kanteen with it.

[@MstrRo]

I am not so sure how much Toaks listens to reviews as the design has not changed since the bail handle inception. The lid still falls off if you tip the pot, and the bail handle still does not lock. The only thing I would use this for, is cooking over a fire in Winter but it is still too small to justify dealing with the floppy bail handle and loose lid. Winter is a time for more water and so soups or more liquidious meals are in order. This does not meet the bill.

[@Chaucerfaux1]

Hey luke, Honest review there. I would have to agree with you on the lid, that thing seems to come off even with a strong breeze, bail handle would be more suited in a different position but then if it was it would make drinking from it rather awkward, i have a pot/cup with the same style of handles an for me i think it's rather uncomfortable having the odd little indent at the bottom, i feel it would be more comfortable to have it at the top or possibly removed all together. That's just me though cause i cant fit 4 fingers into the handles. Strength and Honor.

[@iametoh]

Chaucer Faux - =^.^=

[@pNoid2k1]

@TheOutdoorGearReview do you have a link to the Rocket Stove?

[@cryptonuby811]

Hey Luke have you tried looking at Boundless Voyage 750 ml pot which seems like a copy cat of Toaks or whichever one was the latter however the boundless voyage one is pretty good with the lid and it snugs well. Regarding the bail handle what I suggest it you can put a coloured silicon tube on the baik handle and remove it so that it’s easier to find and acts as a insulator as well. :)

[@Photogineer]

Luke. I was watching this and noticed something. I have the exact pot. The only difference is that the handle brackets on mine are 90 degrees offset from yours. They are not under the handle like yours. You said that you did not like your location because the handle could flip down if you drink from it while holding the 2 foldable handles. Since mine is 90 degrees, I don't have that issue. The only problem with mine is that the bracket and handle are now in the exact spot as your lips are, which makes it impossible to drink if you are holding the 2 foldable handles. I would prefer your set up than mine. Thought you might want to know that it looks like your design was a fix to an earlier flaud design that I have.

[@vikmoj2426]

I would love it to have smaller but LONGER handle and that rubber protection (also on the lid). And more expensive non-stick version would be a game changer :D but one can't have everything

[@johnnyrook6371]

Wish the lid screwed on like the Vargo pot. You could pre-soak food cold while hiking then warm it up whenever you're ready. Plus you can use the bail to hang the container in a tree to keep animals away from the food. Works better if it's air tight.

[@stepbystep3528]

Hello, the cup with a handle is perfect in practice for a wanderer, durable, light, easy to use with one drawback is 750ml is a bit too little, I think that between 1000ml and 1300ml it would be good, not too little, not too much ml and volume.

[@TanukiParis]

Hi, does the handles of this pot can be remove ? i would try to put it on a vargo bot 700 for more convenience

[@mookieblaylock022]

I use a Snow Peak pot that is very similar (though only 500 ML). I found some silicone X shaped bands on Amazon that I use to hold this and my frying pan/ bowl combo.

[@RustyKnorr]

Except Snowpeak costs 50 times as much.

[@techwithnoel1475]

Hey I have a question for you I bought this part what is size of gas canister can I use to fit in the pot

[@foothillstrailhiker3909]

the lid may be loose when cold so it won't stick when hot? just a thought...

[@stephen8436]

fjallraven polar-30 long. tell me about the fjallraven sleeping bag. what about the outside 20d the outer shell will it rip what's the lowest temperature -0 are lower. will it go down to -30. any other good information that you can give me. really detailded information. thank you stephen

[@ChuckNoctis]

Is it sufficient to cook 1 meal of pasta in the pot?

[@denisesarazin6753]

Love my pot for the most part, but it always dribbles a bit down the side of the pot because of the rounded edge that folds over from the inside. Like Tim Hortons cups, same problem. It it’s so light, which is a great advantage.

[@frankgarriga8706]

Hi Luke..did you get the info I sent you on South Mountain State Park cleanup for volunteers?

[@michaelrs8010]

Newbie here (with some decades behind me not new to life but new to this stuff) with a Q for anyone who knows: So I just got the AOTU stove (appears to be the same as the Etekcity here) and the Toaks 750 ml cup and did a test boil with a standard Primus 8 oz canister. I found I could not make the 3 minute boil time unless I cranked the thing up to what seemed like all the way AND, in the bottom of the cup, there was a quarter sized bright red spot, as if the thing might burn through the bottom of the cup. Sooo, all systems normal? Something might be wrong? Did I kill the cup? Please advise. Thanks.

[@thaddeusmikolajczyk9055]

I hope you find the lid.

[@megadeth22885]

my question is.. will the pot fit into a regular water bottle carrier?

[@teenermeener971]

If they make those fixes, I would buy it again.

[@alexwbanks70]

I bought a pot and a cup last year and put a ultra lightweight nesting cook set together. I made a cat can stove with a carbon fiber insert as a wick. I shared the pics on TheOutdoorGearReview FB page. What do you all think?

[@Lovestillz]

Just add magnets to lid and cup! To help secure lid!👍

[@Photogineer]

Sorry but Titanium is non magnetic. Just went downstairs to see and magnets don't stick. 😒Thought it was a good idea but no-go.

[@cobbler88]

I got the almost identical pot, removed the bail because I never need one, and got it from AlliExpress for just north of $20.

[@christianb8228]

I don’t know if you are aware, but they improved on all the things you mentioned in this review. The newest model of this product is great 👍🏻

[@wanderingaloudwithmark3057]

Just an observation there is no pouring spout on the pot. When I boil water on a camp I am pouring it into a freeze dried food bag or into my coffee cup. Being the klutz I am it is a way do avoid a possible burn.

[@Buschpirat]

I agree!

[@thisfall5227]

I have a couple Toaks pots. I like them, but I still like my 10cm Imusa pot better.

What benefits will the tighter lid have? You want to be able to take the hot lid off if the water is boiling... If it is tight, accidents will happen... Spilling water, burning fingers or the pot will fall off the stove etc... So... Loose fit is the better way to go in my opinion

[@osheenoutside6097]

Does anyone have advice for me regarding replacing my bail handle? I lost it in a stream whilst I was washing it up :(

[@jarikinnunen1718]

2:00 The lid fitting is border line in this products price level. When you carry hot liquid, is important that lid stay reasonable well in its place but not is too tight. When you can lift empty pot by lid handle, it`s good.

[@f.c232]

you should try Lixada 750ml Titanium Pot With Bail Handel everything is tighter fitting

[@drtns]

Have you ever reviewed Zebra Billy Pots? I know that there is no comparing Titanium to Steel when it comes to weight but It looks to me like Zebra pots have your lid and bail handle issue sorted out. If weight was not your issue, if you were not looking for something ultra light then I think the 12 cm Zebra pot would be a serious contender vs this one.

[@1Selous]

Chris Stankaitis thats what I have thecguy at firebox stove loves his Zebra Head Pot

[@timothyeubanks32100]

Chris Stankaitis not to mention that if you are actually cooking, steel pots run laps around titanium. Titanium pots are really only good for boiling water. depends on your application I suppose. if you only plan on boiling water, I would bring titanium to save weight. if I was going to cook, even something simple like craft Mac n cheese, I would take the steel.

[@1Selous]

Chris Stankaitis i wondered did look on there website

[@mrfixit011]

put oz markings on it an a locking butter fly handle for that price that would be nice??..

Toaks is a great company! Love mine. Also, it's fun to watch people try and get the first comment on your new videos. Hope all is well down south!

[@SheDeviI]

Does a standard fuel canister fit inside this pot? Also, what is the purpose of the "nalgene compatibility"?

[@Earthpet711]

You didn't mention the bag's use as a koozie.

[@Owl1126]

The lid is like that for a reason. If it had a deeper lid, it would take more pressure to push it back on when cooking, and you'd risk knocking everything over.

[@JoeZUGOOLA]

I agree it's useful for having the lid tilted while cooking

[@saprissa9]

Guys just put reflective tape on the handle and then you can take it off the pot if necessary.

[@AlyGSpirit]

With me the coating got off at the lid...I didnt even dare to stirr with a spoon in it. I sent it back :-(.

[@Francois_Dupont]

3.9oz? no its 4.3 i think the model with the bail handle.

Bend the pot a tiny bit and the lid stays on just fine.

[@MrWmburr7]

Hey Luke, great review as always. I have found that you can buy this exact pot under the brand name "Tomshoo" for 32.99 Amazon Prime. The only difference I can see is that the stuff sack is grey rather than orange. I have both brands and they are interchangeable.

[@greekveteran2715]

The lids SHOULD fit like that! If it was a tight fit, then you wouldn't be able, to lift the lid after cooking and if and when you would manage to open it, you may have spilled the food on the floor,while trying to lift it...
