I've got the kettle - it's great.  Safe and secure, pours well too. Highly recommended.

Hi
Just looked at their site... very inovative... but at what price????. 29.99 for a kettle.... 24.99 for a bowl.... sorry, perhaps I'm tight, but 'not' at those prices
we are actually quite minimalistic....good tent easy to erect, double height air beds, duvet top and bottom, one table,two folding canvas chairs, single burner stove, EHU and fan heater, tv/vid for evening, led torches and light.pota-poti to save walk in rain at night= one boot full
eat at local pub or out for day etc,
selling the F/C as it's too big for us to manage manually... the thought was there....
regards

We needed a kettle and when buying stuff for camping I look for folding, compact gear so everything is in the T/T ready for the off.  I liked it I bought it.  It does the job brilliantly.  I am happy.

Mum bought us the kettle and bucket for Christmas last year and they are brilliant. OH takes kettle fishing with him and I even used it when we had no electric a few weeks back on the gas hob. (Didn't like to tell her we use an electric kettle in camper!)

That's it, you have all persuaded me, there is a collapsible kettle going on my Christmas wish list
