Fire-Maple Petrel Ultralight Pot- High Efficiency Aluminum Camping and Backpacking Pot with Heat-Proof Handle Portable and Compact

This thing is fantastic! I used to manage an outdoor shop, and I would be very stressed if I knew a competitor was selling this stove. It was $25? I think, which is $75-$100 cheaper than the name brand competition. This boils water as fast as a jet boil. 0.5L in two minutes (this is what a jet boil basically does, which changes with altitude, temperature, air pressure, fuel type etc etc etc). The weight is 163grams empty, and fits my 100gram gas canister, base, and burner. My burner is a swivel type, so the three blades rotate out and around the top, this makes it so it definitely fits inside the three recesses in the base of the pot. I’m sure the three fixed bladed burner will fit this fine, I just don’t have one of those to check. This is without a doubt, one of the best, if not the best backpacking pots on the market, for quality, efficiency, and price. Because it’s a quarter of the price of a jet boil. Another very good point in my opinion. I don’t like the jet boil because the stove burner is built into the pot, which makes it more efficient than this, but then you can never use the burner for anything other than that. I can take this pot off and fry something in a pan afterwards, or reheat a mug of coffee, I can give it to a friend and they can use my stove for all their gear, but you can’t do that with a jet boil. So this thing is genuinely fantastic, and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending this product to people I care about. Read more

Works perfectly with pocketrocket deluxe! Better than jetboil minimo, half the weight with PRD and more versatile. Heats and cools crazy fast. The pot can actually do almost 1 L if you go past their line, but do not boil it will overflow! I can do 2 people 16oz each for tea if I fill to near the top and don't go past 200F with careful attention. Almost didn't get because it was a bit small, but if you don't need exactly boiling but need around 1 L this can work perfectly. The opening for 3 fins for the PRD fit perfect and make it stable and good against wind and insanely fast boil. Be sure to boil 2 pots at full heat and dump to get rid of any chemicals etc before using, you never know. Read more

The Fire Maple lightweight backpacking pot is an excellent choice for minimalist adventurers and serious thru-hikers alike. Its standout feature is speed — this pot boils water impressively fast, saving both time and fuel in the backcountry. Despite its ultralight build, it feels durable and well-engineered, with a compact nesting design that fits easily in any pack. The lid seals snugly, and the fold-out handles stay cool enough to handle safely. Whether you're making morning coffee or rehydrating freeze-dried meals, this pot gets the job done with efficiency and reliability. Highly recommended for anyone looking to upgrade their camp kitchen without adding extra weight. Read more

This pot is awesome! I am including my review of the Fire Maple Greenpeak 2 stove with this review for reference. As far as specifics for this product, the pot, it is on point. The perfect small size, making it extremely compact and easy to use. The pot is extremely usable with great heat levels (again using the Greenpeak 2 stove). The lid stays on well and functions adequately. The only two issues I have is the lid is hard to see through which allows you to miss when the water is boiling. The only other issue i have is the inside the pot fluid level marks are hard to read. But for the price-point use and size this thing is awesome. Here is my review for same brand stove I matched with the pot: I am replicating All, this stove is awesome! I have been an avid backpacker and hunter my whole life. I have owned and tried everything fro Colemans to MSRs, to JetBoils and etc. This size and price point of this stove and the G3 ultralight pot which I also reviewed is amazing! Especially compared to other brands and their price points and sizes. Being an off brand I was nervous, but I was looking for a ultra small pot to put in my pack for day hunting trips figuring if for some reason the stove didn't work, oh well I was only out one meal. Well after using it for the hunting season, I think this may replace my backpacking name brand stove for two or three night hikes! The size is amazingly small. The durability on point and with the previously mentioned pot with a small gas canister it all fits into one awesome package. After meeting a couple of my base camp partners int he woods and making them food, they now want one also. Well, I like this product so much that I bought to more stoves and pots to give them for holiday presents! I will try to take pictures the next time I am out with the kit and will update this review if for some reason the stove lets me down in the field; however, I used this for about 20 days this year without issues! BTW for reference I used this stove at around the 5,000 ft elevation level all the way down to sea level. Read more

Compact, lightweight, efficient fuel burning and quick heating. Good buy. Read more

This easily saves minutes off my time to boil. It’s built like a tank. But still remains pretty lightweight. Solid option for anyone planning a back country trip. Looks great, really makes use of all the heat you put in. Read more

I was looking for an economical pot for ultralight hiking, and this one really delivered. The price is great, it heats quickly, and the stainless steel feels durable and reliable. Just make sure you get the Fire-Maple Petrel G2 stove, because that’s the model this pot is actually compatible with — other stoves and brands may not fit as well. For solo cooking, it’s compact, functional, and perfect for simple meals on the trail. It doesn’t enhance flavor or anything like that, but it cooks evenly and everything I’ve made in it has tasted great. If you tend to eat larger portions, you might want the bigger version, but for me, this size has been just right. Overall, I’m very happy with the purchase. Read more
