The Brunner Pirate Spacemaster Saucepan Set delivers excellent cooking performance in a brilliantly designed space-saving package. This 5-piece aluminium cookware set features a Stone Rock non-stick coating for effortless food release and quick cleaning after meals. The stackable design means all pieces nest together inside one another, reducing storage space to an absolute minimum in caravan cupboards, motorhome kitchens, or boat galleys. Available in 20cm and 22cm sizes, the set includes two saucepans, one frying pan, a universal glass lid with silicone rim and drip holes, plus detachable handle tongs for secure grip on any piece. The included carry bag makes transport straightforward for camping trips and outdoor adventures.
The 20cm Mini version weighs 1.95kg with a 2.5L medium pot and a 2.0L small pot, perfect for couples or weekend trips. The 22cm version weighs 2.4kg with a 10cm-high medium pot and 9cm-high small pot, offering generous capacity for families or longer stays. Both sets work beautifully on induction, gas, electric, and ceramic hobs, giving you complete flexibility wherever you're cooking.
The detachable handle system sets this cookware apart from standard camping pans. The handle tongs lock securely onto any pot or pan when you need to lift or pour, then release instantly to allow compact stacking for storage. The glass lid features a silicone noise-proof rim that sits quietly on pots during cooking and prevents rattling while you're on the move. Integrated drip holes in the lid make straining pasta or draining vegetables simple without needing a separate colander. The aluminium construction keeps the weight down whilst the multi-layer Stone Rock coating provides excellent durability and even heat distribution across all cooking surfaces. This coating resists scratching and makes cleanup quick, even when you're washing up in a small sink with limited water.
The Brunner Pirate Spacemaster range suits anyone cooking in compact spaces where storage matters. Caravan owners get full-size cooking ability without losing valuable cupboard room. Campers pack complete meal preparation in one bag. Boat owners gain stable, stackable cookware that stores efficiently. The folding handle on the lid and detachable tongs mean you're not wasting space on long handles when the set's packed away. All pieces work together as a complete system, with the 20cm or 22cm lid fitting multiple pots and pans. The PFOA-free non-stick surface meets modern safety standards whilst delivering reliable cooking results on any hob type you'll find in touring vehicles or campsites across the UK.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Pirate Spacemaster is compatible with all major hob types including induction, gas, electric, and ceramic. The aluminium construction includes a magnetic base that works beautifully with induction hobs, whilst the even heat distribution ensures wonderful cooking results on gas and electric hobs. This universal compatibility makes it perfect for caravans, motorhomes, and campsites where you might encounter different cooking surfaces.
Allow the cookware to cool completely after cooking, then wash with warm water and mild washing-up liquid using a soft sponge or cloth. The Stone Rock coating releases food easily, so gentle cleaning is all that's needed. Avoid abrasive scrubbers or metal scourers as these can affect the coating. For stubborn stains, sprinkle baking soda on the affected area, leave for 15-20 minutes, then gently scrub with a soft brush in circular motions. Rinse thoroughly with warm water and dry immediately with a clean towel to prevent water spots.
Hand washing is recommended to protect the Stone Rock non-stick coating and extend the lifespan of your cookware. Dishwashers use stronger detergents and higher temperatures that can gradually affect the non-stick surface over time. Hand washing with warm soapy water takes just minutes and keeps the coating in excellent condition for years of reliable cooking performance.
The universal handle tongs clip securely onto the rim of any pot, pan, or saucepan in the set when you need to lift, pour, or move cookware on the hob. To attach, simply position the handle over the rim and press down until it locks firmly in place. To release, squeeze the handle mechanism and lift away. This clever system eliminates fixed handles, allowing all pieces to stack neatly together and saving valuable storage space in caravan cupboards or motorhome kitchens.
The 20cm Mini weighs 1.95kg and includes a 2.5L medium pot, 2.0L small pot, and 1.5L frying pan, making it perfect for couples or solo travellers on weekend trips. The 22cm standard version weighs 2.4kg with larger capacity pots (10cm and 9cm heights) and a deeper 22cm frying pan, offering more cooking space for families or longer stays. Both sets include the same detachable handle system, glass lid with drip holes, and compact carry bag, with the choice coming down to how many people you're cooking for and how much space you have available.
Ensure all pieces are completely clean and fully dry before stacking to prevent moisture buildup. Nest the smaller pot inside the medium pot, place the frying pan on top, and position the glass lid over everything. The detachable handle stores separately inside one of the pots or in the provided carry bag. Store the complete set in a cool, dry place away from excessive heat or humidity. The included carry bag protects the cookware during transport and keeps all pieces together in your caravan, motorhome, or garage between camping trips.
Use wooden, silicone, or plastic utensils when cooking with the Pirate Spacemaster to protect the Stone Rock non-stick surface. Avoid metal spatulas, forks, or spoons as these can scratch the coating over time. The PFOA-free non-stick surface is durable and scratch-resistant with proper care, delivering wonderful food release for years when you use the right utensils. Silicone utensils are particularly good as they're heat-resistant, gentle on non-stick surfaces, and ideal for camping conditions.
The tempered glass lid is designed for standard stovetop cooking temperatures and allows you to monitor food without lifting the lid and losing heat. The integrated drip holes let you strain pasta, vegetables, or potatoes by tilting the pot whilst holding the lid in place. The silicone rim creates a seal that keeps heat in during cooking and prevents rattling noise when you're travelling. Always handle the lid carefully after cooking as the glass and silicone rim will be hot, and avoid sudden temperature changes to maintain the glass in excellent condition.
When fully nested, the 20cm Mini set stacks to approximately 20cm diameter by 12cm height, whilst the 22cm standard set measures roughly 22cm diameter by 14cm height. This compact footprint fits easily in standard caravan cupboards that typically measure 30cm wide or more. The stackable design reduces storage volume by around 60% compared to traditional cookware with fixed handles, making it perfect for compact motorhome kitchens, boat galleys, or campervan storage lockers where every centimetre counts.
Whilst the Stone Rock coating is more durable than standard non-stick surfaces, regular use of metal utensils will gradually wear down the coating through repeated scratching. Occasional contact with metal utensils during serving or transferring food is unlikely to cause immediate issues, but consistent use will shorten the coating's lifespan. Stick with wooden, silicone, or plastic utensils for everyday cooking to maintain the wonderful non-stick performance and protect your investment in quality camping cookware.
Brunner products typically come with a manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. The warranty period and specific terms vary by retailer, so check with your supplier at the time of purchase for exact warranty details. To maintain warranty coverage, follow the care instructions provided, use appropriate utensils, and avoid dishwasher cleaning. Proper care ensures your Pirate Spacemaster delivers reliable cooking performance for many wonderful camping seasons.
The Pirate Spacemaster is designed for stovetop cooking on induction, gas, electric, and ceramic hobs. The glass lid and silicone components are not intended for oven use. If you need oven-safe cookware for your caravan or motorhome, look for products specifically designed with oven-safe handles and lids. The Pirate Spacemaster excels at hob-based cooking tasks including boiling, frying, simmering, and steaming, covering all essential meal preparation needs for camping and mobile living.
The integrated drip holes in the glass lid allow you to strain pasta, rice, or vegetables without needing a separate colander. Hold the lid firmly in place on the pot using the detachable handle or a tea towel, then carefully tilt the pot over your sink or waste water container. Water drains through the holes whilst the food stays inside the pot. This feature is particularly useful in caravans and motorhomes where storage space for extra kitchen tools is limited, giving you multi-functional cookware that handles various cooking tasks brilliantly.
Aluminium offers several advantages for camping cookware including significantly lighter weight for easier transport, faster heat-up times that save gas or electric power, and wonderful heat distribution that prevents hot spots during cooking. The 20cm Mini set weighs just 1.95kg complete, whilst a comparable stainless steel set would typically weigh 3kg or more. This weight saving matters when you're loading a caravan or carrying gear to your pitch. The Stone Rock coating provides the durability and scratch resistance you'd expect from heavier materials whilst keeping the set portable and easy to handle.
