This mess kit includes the following items:

• The meth burner (Svea) is made from brass. It is a little larger than most meth burners but the extra capacity means you can get a burn of up to one half hour which is great when you want to cook a large meal and then put your coffee/tea water on to boil while you eat the meal.
  
  
• The large pot can hold approx  1,5 l of water. It fits into the wind shield and onto the pot stand. The pot also has a handle and a hook for cooking over an open flame fire.

• The smaller pot  0.7 liters has a few functions acting as lid for the large pot while cooking, a smaller pot for boiling water and a cup for drinking out of. Handle is complete with both D-rings which allow a stick, or any other items to be inserted for removal from hot cooking area.

• One Aluminum Windshield / Pot holder. Interior of windscreen contains two folding metal braces, which  hold pot elevated above SVEA burner, when in use. 

• One plastic fuel bottle.
