MSR markets several items that are described as "hard anodized." I do not know if they are HA-3 or not, but the elderly set I have is very useful, just as you say, light, easy cleaning, and really hot. I am pretty sure other manufacturers offer similar products as well.

My outdoor cookery includes items that are stainless steel, aluminum, and titanium. They all have their uses, and in particular situations are ideal.

Just picked up the Stanley set at Target for $14.99. Very nice setup as been posted before. I'm going camping with the scouts in the infield at Daytona soon, so I'll put it thru it's paces. I'm all for small, lightweight, and multi purpose, so I'm sure this will be a winner if build quality is any indication. The only concern I have is the plastic tab on the top of the lid, should this get too hot, it may deform/melt.
