this purchase was a gift for a dear friend who just could not bring himself to pay $500 for a sun oven. we received 2 sun ovens over 20 years ago as gifts, and a few years back purchased a 3rd since our original ovens are starting to deteriorate. they do still work! we use our ovens a lot, although we have not yet tried to dehydrate food or sterilize water! we especially appreciate having them in the hot Arizona summers so we don’t have to heat up our house! we have even taken one camping with us. it’s great to come back from a day of rock climbing or hiking and have dinner ready!
Nice stacking pots. They’re well-made and were nicely packaged so the items arrived in good shape. I’m looking forward to more sunlight to test them out.
