regarding stove, it seems the hole-portion rests ontop of the stove? and your "pot" rests on the hole-portion. Does this create a delicate balancing act?
I use a pepsi stove top hole, and chicken wire pot stand. Would like to eliminate stand and go side burner, I like the Monster drink pot but wonder about steadiness. Is there something I am missing?
Thanks.

I know that I used to have an empty one somewhere, but I can't find it. What are the interior dimensions of the Gatorade canister (depth and diameter)?

That's a pretty nice set up, but like Dana I wonder about stability. Has anyone tried it? Anything to report in terms of stability?

I love all feedback positive or negative. on 11/27/2011 14:49:20 MST Print View

A little bit of negative for you.

Your pot support is like butter, totally annealed and ready to dump your next load of water. The way it sits on your burner is an accident waiting to happen:-)
