I like stainless because it’s durable, my Coleman stainless steel mess kit is going on 25-years old and still looks very good.


Stainless steel is also easy to clean up with oven spray without the oven cleaner eating the metal. It eats aluminum & copper (don’t know what it does to titanium?)


Stainless steel does not heat quite as evenly as aluminum, but I have not found this to be a real problem. Just stir the food while cooking.



I have never been one to go for trendy things just because it’s the way the masses go.
