It’s about the same width as the popular 750 ml titanium pots and works perfect with the toaks ti stand. It can be used as a stand alone pot, a kettle, or a percolator. Awesome!

Size: 12 cupVerified Purchase
I love this percolator!
We go camping a lot and usually we go where there are hook ups, but a couple times we have had to dry camp. I felt completely lost without my coffee!! But I was still undecided on buying a percolator, so I waited. We live on the outskirts of town and our power went out at our house. That was it, I was buying a percolator! I looked everywhere and did my research and decided on this one. And I love it!

-All of it is heavy gauge stainless steel, including the basket. I have heard of the glass ones cracking. And I have heard the Alumium ones add a bad flavor to your coffee over time. So stainless steel was a must for me.
- And the basket has a lid! This helps reduce coffee grounds getting into your coffee.
-I wanted at least a 12 cup for my big family. This one is the perfect size, great for large groups.
-It's easy to wash and clean. The lid is attached, so I just wash it out with a little soap and water and let it air dry.
-It says the amount of cups of water to pour in on the outside and the inside. This is very helpful.
-it has a silicone handle so you don't burn your hand.

So I had to do a bit of research on the best way to use a percolator. First I went and bought good coffee at our grocery store and had it grinded coarse. This makes the coffee big enough that you don't have to use a filter in the basket. I did buy little percolator filters to keep on hand just in case I only had fine grinded coffee.
I used about 1T scoop of coffee per 2 ounces of water. This was just my preference. Make sure to spread the coffee around in the basket evenly.
I then put it on medium until I saw it starting to percolate in the glass bubble and then I turned it down to simmer for 3 to 5 minutes. Watch it closely to make sure your not burning the coffee. You will see the percolating starting to slow down.
It made amazing coffee, better than my electric coffee pot. I loved that my whole house smelled wonderful! I am going to also purchase some type of warming carafe to put the coffee in, in case we don't drink it all right away.
I would recommend this percolator to anyone! It's great quality! Worth every penny! This should be the last one I ever need.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Camping Percolator I Have Owned!
Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2012
Size: 12 cupVerified Purchase
Purchased this as an upgrade to our Coleman 4 cup percolator. We were never happy with the coffee made by that percolator and we needed a large coffee pot for an upcoming Cub Scout camping trip. Purchased this hoping that the Stainless would hold up to rugged use and that it wouldn't flavor the water like our aluminum coffee pot. Happy to say that this purchase was worth every dollar. We made over 6 pots of coffee in one day and then used it again on a family campout.

Here are some perks of this pot...

* Large capacity - great for large groups or multiple families camping together

* Rugged design - seemed better made than my pervious percolator - like the plastic bulb on top because it is hardier than the glass ones

* Stainless means that the water for you coffee is not flavored by the pot like with aluminum pots

* Silicone handle allows you to take the pot off a hot burning propane camp stove without a hot mit - Handle didn't melt on camp stove or over campfire (when placed on a grate over the fire)

* Holds heat well and coffee stays warm longer than our previous pot

I do recommend having your coffee ground for a percolator. It is a different grind than found in pre-ground coffee in the store. First time we used it, we used standard ground coffee and noted that grounds ended up in the bottom of the pot. On our next trip had the coffee ground for a percolator (at Starbucks but Peets will do it as well) and it worked perfectly. No grounds in the bottom of the pot.

Please note that it does hold 12 measuring cups of water, but if you drink large mugs of coffee it is more like a 8 cup coffee pot.

All in all, this pot was worth every penny paid and I am happy to pay a little more for a quality product like this pot. Needless to say, our old Coleman pot is going in the Goodwill bag.

4.0 out of 5 stars Lexan Resin top is a risk, but Amazon probably has newer model
Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2012
Size: 12 cupVerified Purchase
I was impressed with what I read and was about to buy this, but did a search on Lexan Resin. In fact, Lexan IS A HEALTH HAZARD. I contacted GSI and they were very helpful, telling me the now use "copolyester" for the cap/dome, NOT Lexan, since they now know Lexan is a health risk. Any hazardous plastic becomes even more of a health risk when heat is applied, as in the dome of the percolator.

GSI said any sellers who are still selling the Lexan top percolator have old inventory.

A search of copolyester shows NO HEALTH RISKS.

For me, I'll either buy this elsewhere, with the copolyester top, or wait for Amazon to get the safe model.

UPDATE: GSI has said, to the best of their knowledge, Amazon has never had the old model, with Lexan dome. Based upon this, I ordered one today.

7/28/12 UPDATE: I'm using this on a stovetop, and so far, it seems quite good. Coffee is great, with some experimentation (as others note). As for other comments about it being made in China, wake up, the US doesn't make much of anything anymore, even from so-called US companies such as GE, who's outsourced jobs at an even faster rate than Mitt Romney's Bain Capital, yet, who's CEO is Obama's choice fro job's creation. If you don't like the trend, complain to BOTH Republicrats and Democron's (are they really so different?)

Now, for quality of construction: The main unit is well made, though the hinge and welding of the handle to the body seem to be of less than ideal quality - not terrible, not great. The inner center post/stem is flimsy, at best the post is machine snapped into the base, with little additional metal material, so I question longevity. I'm careful with what I own/use, but even with care, only time will tell...

Its a shame because 90% the overall perc construction seems sound and durable, but its only as good as its weakest link, so the insert/center stem, hinge and handle welds will determine if this perk lasts, or is a throwaway!
