Trangia Aluminium Mess Tin

Its perfect 😍

It’s exactly what I expected. A very simple tin. I use it for my survival kit. Holds everything and I can cook and boil water with it.

I'm giving it 5 stars because it's really nice and good quality. I am returning it though because it's just a little bit too small for my needs. I do suggest not closing the lid all the way while cooking unless wearing heatproof gloves because you do have to squeeze it a bit to release it which could be dangerous or difficult if handling while hot.

Vedo molte recensioni negative per il modello senza manico,io non posso parlare di quello,effettivamente la latta è sottile ,ma essendo questo modello piccolo e compatto sembra robusto insomma non si ammacca con la pressione di un dito,va sul fuoco ,comodo il manico lungo,io lo uso per portare cibi cotti tipo spezzatino polpette carne al sugo, scaldarla sul fuoco e mangiarla direttamente dal contenitore oltre i soliti noodle o riso liofilizzato,non è stagno ma io lo avvolgo nella classica pellicola trasparente portato in piano e non riempito al massimo e non ha mai perso per questo uso lo trovo ottimo

Trangia Mess Tin is must have for Japanese outdoor cooking fans to cook rice. It was my first one and I could make my first rice outside. So happy wit the result and the minimal lightweight tool!

I have been using Trangia aluminium mess tin for years. They are so good I purchased another 2 of them. The pro/con is that the surface area is retangular. It helps that it has a lid to speed cooking, which could also be used to cook directly with some limitations. There is no carry handle for the lid. The surface is rather thin which is good for weight, but not great for cooking. They are a reasonable size to store things within them, but the lid doesn't lock. Many people use elastic bands. You can remove the handle for storage, or leave it attached.
