Summary:
Light and strong. Don't get the non-stick - you don't need it and it just weighs more and it's creppy having some weird coating touching your food all the time. I've used the pot on over 60 nights of backpacking. I've put a small dent in the bottom - no big deal. I've used it as a frying pan for falafal - worked fine. The handles are great - nothing to lose, never hot, always sturdy. The pour spout is a simple way the company pays attention to what customers watnt without anything fancy. It's a straight forward easy design. Stable - not sure of the other reviews, but stable on a Dragonfly, the WhisperLite I used, Gigas, and SimmerLites.

Perfect pot for two people for sure. If you only want to own one pot this is the one. I use it for just myself often and just fill it with all my food.

Summary:
In an attempt to lighten my load, I purchased this pot, on high reccomendation from others. It is certainly lightweight, and took a cruel beating on my last trip at the hands of Gorilla baggage handlers that destroyed 2 of my bags. The pour lip in the rim of the pot is very useful, and the handles are well insulated. The recess in the bottom of the pot however does make the pot unstable on both my Coleman Exponent F1 Ultralight, and my MSR Whisperlite stove. It is something I can deal with, but Evernew should make the bottom of this pot flat. Because of this design flaw, I don't completely trust this pan.

Summary:
While titanium is light/strong/etc., these pots are eaily damaged. If you manage to burn anything on the bottom of the pot, the metal immediately below the burnt item will soon oxidize with the inceased heat. So buy titanium junk- just don't let incompetent friends cook with it.

Summary:
I bought both this and the 0.9L after having REI staff test if they nest, they do. Now I have 1 for cooking and 1 for scooping snow or just making hot water for drinks with less weight than the single stainless steel I had before.
I normally only take the 1.3L on trips, but do take both for winter where I expect to have to melt snow, or get real fancy with meals and want 2 cookpots.


The 1.3L size is great for 2 person meals and the smaller 0.9L works when cooking for 1.
Light, handles do not get hot and fold for packing convienience. The silicone handle covers do slip a little when the pot is hot. A huge improvement over pot holder pliers, the folding handles are a much better grip and much less likely to burn myself with a spill.
Lid is not a tight fit, it just sits there but works adequately for cooking.

This is not the non-stick surface but I have never had a problem with food sticking.

Overall this is a very convenient size, easy to use, easy to clean, packs small, and weighs so much less than my other pot.

Since getting these Ti pots I have not considered carrying anything else.
Hard to get real enthusiastic over something as boring as a pot, but this is all the pot I ever want.

Customer Service:
Not used for this product. REI has accepted other items without question, great company to deal with.
