My fellow Cast Iron Chefs say "pass this one by". The product is made of inferior materials in China; the parts break easily; and there's no true functionality to it. It's designed to appeal to gear heads and gadgeteers but doesn't perform well.

Lodge makes an excellent USA-made camping Dutch Oven with superior materials that's a favorite among the Cast Iron Chefs. They also like Camp Chef products. The camping Dutch Oven has legs that allow coals to be placed underneath. Here's a link to the Camping Dutch Oven.
I got a Lodge Seasoned Steel 8" pan for Christmas and it's a 5 star winner for camping with the gas grill.
The camping DOs are also available in the camping sections of your local Walmart usually.:W
