(8 cup) - GSI Outdoors Glacier Stainless Steel Percolator Coffee Pot, 8-Cup

There are many products-cheaper than this. I bought the cheaper one. But the quality is not same. If have this and another brand side by side, despite of price, i bet you would choose this like i did, because you can tell the difference. For example, this one is very well welded and doesn't have old steel smell. Each part fits without any gap

This is a high quality stainless Percolator that works great and will no doubt last for years ahead.

Great product

Purchased the largest sized pot (36 cup) as I wanted one to brew coffee for a group of campers in a single batch. So far testing this, all my expectations and needs have been met. I wanted to do a review to share firsthand what I found on the quality of the unit and also its capacity, as I know the product information provided isn’t entirely clear on exactly what they define as a “cup”. The pot is well constructed, very sturdy but pleasantly a lighter weight than I expected it to be. The handle feels a little uncomfortable, especially when it has a good amount of water in it, and it’s not insulated so a glove or potholder will still be necessary. This is a rather minor nitpick and not much of a bother. Also, the bail wire on it isn’t just a nice feature, it is a necessity—with water in it, it is difficult to move or pour with just one hand, but that is expected given the volume it can hold. One really great surprise was the percolator basket. Unlike ones from other camp coffee pots, this one feels more solid and not likely to bend unless you really worked hard at doing so. Also, unlike others, where the basket is loose and wobbles around or you have to reach inside to pull it out, the basket here fits flush and secure on the top lip of the pot. Now, onto the capacity. Recommendations on the packaging are to keep the water below the percolator basket. I filled it with 24 X 8oz cups (196oz), or 1.5 gallons of water. This reached to about ½ inch below the bottom of the basket. I then ran it with just water to test and was able to get it to percolate and it did not come out the spout, although I didn’t test the “oops, I had it way too high and on too long and forgot to keep an eye on it” scenario. I brewed 1 gallon of coffee in it and it did that comfortably and I think at that level there would be no chances of spillage by over boiling. One final note on the capacity, I did attempt brew a smaller batch in this (4 X 8oz and then 8 X 8oz) and it would not percolate enough with so little water in it. So, if you might need to brew smaller batches sometimes, better have a smaller pot handy.

Makes great coffee :)
