Quality
The Zebra Loop Handle Pot is a well-made product. Unlike so many other camping items, especially cookware, that seem so flimsy and cheap, this is quality. Well made, sturdy, no rattles, great looking, functional, and long-lasting. The Zebra Loop Handle Pot is an amazingly built pot. It’s high-quality stainless steel, well constructed, and durable. The manufacturing is flawless with no signs of weak points or other worrisome details.
Sizes
The Zebra Loop Handel Pot comes in several sizes. The 10cm and 12cm sizes are useful for a single person hiking or camping. The larger sizes would be for 2 people at most. A big eater may want the larger size for themselves. The 10cm pot is 4″ in diameter, the 12cm pot is roughly 4.75″ in diameter, the 14cm and 16cm are 5.5″ and 6.25″ in diameter. It doesn’t seem like a big difference, but in terms of pack size and volume of the containers, it is a big difference between them all.
Lid
The lid and tray fit soundly into the pot with little room to spare. Once the handle is raised to lock the plastic retainer tab, there is no rattle or movement. The 2 plastic clips automatically open and close as the handle is raised or lowered, this is great for cooking. The lid fits tight and has a small handle that does not protrude so it packs a little easier.
Fire Cooking
This pot is meant to be used over a fire, not in the fire. The plastic clips hold up well to the heat, as long as you do not put them into the fire. The handle is sturdy and strong and has a slight divot in the center to give it stability when hanging over a fire.

This is an extremely light-weight, durable cook set. The handles are incredibly stable, graduation measurements are clearly marked and the overall size of the storage is right on.
