GSI Outdoors says: 

The nFORM Ultralight System has taken the unique needs of fast and light backpacking and built a system of solutions that defy the notion that ultralight means making sacrifices. Thanks to its incredible capacity for nesting, the Glacier Stainless Dualist includes insulated mugs, bowls, a pair of folding fork-spoon hybrid utensils, strainer lid, sink sack, handy measurement graduations and a 1.8 L boiler while still leaving room for a stove and 230 g fuel cartridge inside. And since both boiler and lid are made of rugged, highly-conductive 18/8 (304) stainless steel, you are free to cook over the campfire, coals or just about any other heat source.

Time, comfort, efficiency, performance and ultra-light weight in a system built for you and a friend, the Glacier Stainless Dualist really packs it all for you.

Our Verdict

Glacier Dualistis a compact, lightweight cook set ideal for two ultralight hikers. The set includes an 1800ml stainless steel pot that neatly houses two insulated mugs with sippy cup lids, two lightweight bowls, and two folding sporks. The set is housed in a waterproof stuff sack that can also be used as a small sink. The shape of the cups may take some getting used to, but they are insulated to keep your drinks hot or cold. The Halulite Microdualist is a great ultralight option for two hikers, but it would also work well in a camper van. It is not a pot that you will be cooking a “real” meal in, but it is perfect for two dehydrated meals and two cups of tea or coffee.
