      Comments about GSI Hae Tea Kettle:

      My wife and I were looking for a little more volume in our next cook pot when we came across the GSI Kettle at our local REI. 4 cups (1 quart) fills it to the bottom of the spout and it pours perfectly. It’s short and squat with a lot of surface area along the bottom for excellent heat transfer. Perfect for our style of backcountry cooking which amounts to no more than preparing boiling water for freeze-dried meals and hot beverages. Also, while this may sound strange for a tea kettle review, it’s a great looking piece of gear. Our last cook pot was anodized aluminum as well and this kettle should last years and years. Its design caught our eye, and its lightweight (and light price) sold us.

        Comments about GSI Hae Tea Kettle:

        A friend and I just got back from a trip to the Smokies. We usually carry the soloist on our trips and use it for all our cooking. On this trip we decided to try and use this kettle for all cooking and leave the soloist at home to save weight. Let me just say that I am sold on our new cooking system. This kettle is super light, durable and stable. The snow peak stove fits right inside and the spout on the pot makes pouring hot water into a pouch into a one man job. We were able to free up tons of time with this little pot and didn't miss out on any other luxuries.

          Ditched my large nesting pot and took the Kettle. Pours great & heats quick. Used it for instant oatmeal, easy-mac, raman or anything that needed boiling water. Before long other backpackers were borrowing it.

            I used it to boil water for coffee. It is super! It boils water so fast. I did not spill when I made my coffee. It is light weight and the price is right. I only do car camping so I am not sure how it would work for heavy duty campers.

              Comments about GSI Hae Tea Kettle:

              I don't like to cook when at home. I certainly don't want to cook when camping. So-- my needs involve freeze dried or freezer bag cooking, or boiling to purify water or to make a hot water bottle for a sleeping bag. Boiling and pouring. Boiling and pouring. The GSI kettle does both extremely well. If you needed to, you could hang the kettle over a fire or coals from the handle. And if you HAD to cook in it, the opening is big enough to do so. If your needs involve mostly boiling and pouring, the GSI kettle is as light as a comparatively sized titanium pot. It's also cheaper and more practical.

              Great addition to my BP system of cooking. I do alot of hiking with boy scouts. The other men and I drink coffee. While the boys are still boiling water, we men are enjoying our coffee.

              Gave one star off because the handle needs to be attached better to the pot. Kind of cheap and can get hung up or tear items in the pack. Have to becareful with it.

              It's nice to not have to use a glove or rags to pour your water.

              I'm going to try putting a cork in the pour spout to see if that shortens the boil time even more.

              Comments about GSI Hae Tea Kettle:

              This little kettle is useful in a variety of situations, as the other reviewers have expressed. The Halulite alloy finish looks just as good after many uses as it did the day I got it. The lid handle does get a bit hot, but I have never had any melting and it is easy enough to remove with a stick or spork. If anything I just wish it was a little bit larger, for brewing up several cups of hot coffee for my companions and I. Get it!

                This kettle is perfect - light, tight sealing top, durable, great handle. Took it on a 4 day backpacking trip in the Tetons and will not pack without it.
