I paid a lot more for a Vango set very similar, that set now retails at £35 plus pounds.
Thank you keep up the good work. 👍
Cheers Simon, appreciate it.
Very nice find, good job.
Keep you eyes out though, on cheap pans on a very hot camping stove, the non-stick layer tends to crack and eventually bladder and even scratch off completely, you don’t want crums of non-stick chemicals mixed in with your food.
We’ve gone through a few of these sets over the years, and now use stainless steel pans, specifically designed for camping of course. They lasted us 7 years so far, and many more years to come.
Thanks for the warning I'll keep an eye on that.
Hello there Kevin, I got one of these sets yesterday and was surprised at the very decent quality of it. The frying pan could do with being just a wee bit bigger but it's good quality stuff for just ten pounds.
Yeah, I found for me and my youngest the pan is just about big enough, but a bit bigger wouldn't hurt. Can't go wrong for £9.99 really.
Watched about half of this and shot off to three Aldis in St. Louis. Found lots of other camping gear to spend my $$$ on, but not a cookset. If I had to guess, I think it hasn't come here yet. They were well stocked on just about everything else. I just found your channel, and I enjoyed this video. Subscribed and Liked. :) One pro tip on those sausages: Cook them in a little water and then finish browning when they're almost cooked through.
Thanks for watching and thanks for that pro tip on the sausages, I'll give that a try.
Try seasoning your pans first to increase their non-stickiness. Heat the pan up, put a little bit of oil in and wipe the oil around the pan with a paper towel. Take the pan off the heat and let it cool down completely. Standard cookware trick.
Thanks. I'll do that with the saucepans.
That was great Kev liked how you cut it to the Brecon beacons then back.
We bought one of those kits for when we go camping as a family about three years ago and have used it on a number of occasions. Never had a problem with it and thought it was great. 👍
Cheers Phil. Was good to be able to get out on a nice camp with it. I really enjoyed the cooking.
Bought one of these sets for our camper van last year. More than happy with it for the price.
Nice. It's a good camper or car camping set and I'd happily take the frying pan and saucepan on a hike.
interesting kev, trangia buster maybe. gonna give it a go over the weekend if aldi got any left
Good luck!
Hi Kev
Purchased one of these last week
Excellent value and assortment really looking forward to using them
Keep looking for these bargains I’m sure they’ll help people to find gear as well as looking on the internet
Jeff
Thanks Jeff. Hope they serve you well. I'll be using them a bit hopefully as I expect I'll be cooking more on camps.
Best to go with a skillet rated for fire use or cast iron. The skillet portion of these kits are designed for low heat dispersed flame or just as a plate.
I imagine they are pretty heavy though?
Great video pal, think the budget ranges are getting better quality all the time. For the amount they are used you can’t go wrong. Their are obviously type of gear you do need to spend more on but stuff like this is going to do you great for the money. Don’t know why people poo poo these bits of gear
Cheers. Yeah, it's not like you're cooking on them every evening, but only occasional camping so happy days.
👍👍👍
I don't have a problem using Aluminium .. as a 'Boomer' (YOB 1950), I was raised on food cooked in 'Hart' Brand non-anodised aluminium pots.
Did it harm me in any way? Maybe .. I don't remember 😏.
Seriously, I still use a middle-size Aluminium Billy .. a set of Mess Tins ('Dixies') .. the Pot on my Trangia 28 'Mini', all unanodised. However, I always use Wooden or Synthetic Cooking Utensils to reduce 'scratching' the soft Aluminium Surface .. just in case. The secret to cooking in Aluminium Pots is the keep the heat low and regular stirring to reduce food 'sticking' to the bottom.
That said .. my go-to is Stainless Steel. Titanium? Naah .. my pockets are not deep enough and I am not an exclusive 'boiler of water' only.
A good share .. thanks .. and I'm sure that, inter alia, those wanting 'to test the outdoor water' without 'breaking the bank' will get value from it.
Take care ..
Cheers. Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to share your experiences.

Looks nobad Kev. Would do a wee car camping job. Like a wee Aldi n Lidls outdoor bargain maself like.
Yeah I've a soft spot for the random middle aisle goods!
When are they on sale in Aldi there has been none in my local
Not sure, they were in South Wales last week.
The same pots under a variety of brand names sell for US$16-20 on Amazon
Amazon's just about the cheapest place online for stuff these days, apart from maybe AliExpress.
To spread an intense flame (heat source) first set a tin can lid onto the stove, then your cooking pan.

Thanks, that sounds like a good idea.
Did you wash that pan?
Yeah, gave it a good scrub before using it, and it still smoked a little on first use.
@@TheWalkingKev 🫡
@@TheWalkingKev You need to catch that smoke, in case the magic smoke of electronic devices gets lost-it makes electronics work!
Really!
If it escapes the electronics are broken ;-)
@@RealMash 😂
Looks canny for price I got a zebra lunchbox and great size for 1 and small to pack or I'd go get that set today shows you don't need deep pockets to enjoy camping if grab bargains allied express is great same stuff as eBay and amazon for half the price😂
Yeah, loads of bargain gear out there. I'm a big fan of picking up used gear. Got so many amazing tents for less than £25.
I don't use ali any more. The dangers of ....what was it again. I can't remember, oh yes, alzheimers.
What would you use instead then?
@@TheWalkingKev Steel or titanium.
Steel - solid, cheap as ali, cooks well, HEAVY.
Titanium, solid enough, expensive, doesn't cook so well except for boiling water, LIGHT.
Some Ti are being sold now with ceramic coatings that makes it semi non-stick. Let's hope there is more R&D into coatings.
Although the Aldi set is made from aluminium, it's coated so there is no risk of aluminum poisoning. It's not like the pure aluminum mess tins I used as a scout back in the early 1990s!
@simonseas Agreed, but I prefer to play it safe. My brain is worth more than a few pounds of savings at a shop.
In that case check all food ingredients especially bread.
