Has anyone used the Snow Peak Titanium Trek 700 mug/pot before? Is it any good?
It's a 700mL titanium pot, here's the REI link. Weight is listed as 4.8oz (=137g), but I assume that includes the lid and mesh sack. I'm thinking about getting it for a thru-hike (AT SOBO), do you all think it would work well for that? I looked for an aluminum version (to save some dollars, trying to keep the budget monster under control ) but they only make it in titanium.
A few questions:
- Is Snow Peak a reputable brand? It seems to me that the general advice is to avoid titanium products at all costs unless you know for sure that the manufacturer makes a quality product.
- Is 700mL sufficiently sized for a young adult male on a thru-hike on the AT? I just need it for food; I don't do coffee.
- Is the weight (4.8oz/137g) and price ($45) reasonable for the product?
- If it isn't a good for any of the above reasons, what are some alternatives that would alleviate those concerns?
Thanks!
