I have the XL it's a great frying pan, and takes up next to no room as the cooking utensils fit inside and takes up next to no space in the rusksack. unlike a frying pan.

Have you tried a 20cm frying pan with folding or detachable handle(s)?

Vango and/or Kampa has folding ones, and MSR has a detachable one in stainless steel.

I use my Ridge Monkey for all sorts of cooking in my campervan. It fits on the stove a lot better than the small frying pan I used to use and since I got it I've stopped using the frying pan and saucepans and have demoted them to the home kitchen.
It even does excellent toast unlike the holey thing I had before which always made the toast look as though it had measles.
Has freed up a lot of room in my van's kitchen cupboard.
Have been using it for a couple of years now and not noticed any problems with the detachable handles, I too suspect user error there.

If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, just keep going till you go round the bend.

We bought our Ridgemonkey XL at the beginning of our camping season, it is great for pre-cooked rice, potato rosties etc as long as you don't use it on the high setting, heated a cheese & ham pitta to perfection. Definitely recommend buying one.
