Practical, three-piece set. Already tested many times in the field. The only downside is that the smaller pot hits the larger one when folded. This is my first such set from Helikon and I was pleasantly surprised.

The material quality is very good, which is a big plus. The downside is the lack of a handle for the lid/pan—without it, it's hard to use them, and also the pot handles feel a bit unstable.
-
Good quality product, though heavy, but the folding option is a plus. The metal makes a good impression and seems like the set will last a long time. I'm a little worried about the handle, because it doesn't seem very secure.
-
Steel set, three-piece mess kit—I haven't had the chance to use it yet, but a friend recommended it, so I bought it. It's quite heavy, but it's steel after all. I hope it will last several seasons. I used to use a lighter, aluminum version that was less durable. This set feels very solid.
-
Great set for camping, survival trips, etc. Excellent for cooking and frying, hard to burn food, easy to clean. I recommend it to everyone.
-
The price matches the quality. Very solid, spacious, and relatively lightweight. It’s best to use with a gas stove, because it's easy to burn on a campfire, as you can see after the first use. Despite this, I rate it 5 stars because the product met my expectations.
-
Solid pots made of thicker sheet metal work very well for everyday cooking on gas stoves. The handles are durable, made of thick wire. A recommended purchase that will last a long time.
-
I haven't tested it yet, but it seems solid. The sheet metal is thick, so cooking should be comfortable. I was looking for stainless steel and in this price range it's hard to find anything better than Helikon.
-
Very nice set, though a bit heavy — I expected that. For me, it's better for car trips; for carrying on my back, I’d prefer something lighter. It seems very solid.
-
Durable and handy set of dishes from Helikon. After assembling, it takes up little space. Can be used directly on a campfire without worry. This is a purchase for many years.
-
Tested over an open fire, gas stove and camping burner—no problems at all. Solid quality, you can see it's not thin metal, but real cookware. I recommend it.
-
Excellent set, already proven during camping; high quality, practicality—nothing more is needed for occasional use! We are satisfied and recommend these pots—a great choice for couples!
-
Product as described, very practical set of dishes—just right for out-of-town trips and more. Solid workmanship, trustworthy brand. It's worth investing in our products.
-
The set is lightweight and compact, which is a plus. Unfortunately, the build quality is not impressive—the handle attachment of the largest pot started to crack already on the second camping trip, and the bottom of the big pot easily burns food because of the thin metal.
-
The Helikon mess kit, although not the cheapest, is worth its price because of its high quality and practicality. You can easily cook on a solid fuel stove, and the thick sheet metal ensures long durability.
