A good tent is essential if you're going camping unless you're trying to do the whole Bear Grylls survivalist thing. Even if you're only buying a tent for yourself or yourself and one other person, we recommend going big. The Coleman 8-person Tent for Camping provides plenty of room to stretch out and accommodate all the extra gear you packed along for the trip. It even comes with solid weather protection without feeling stuffy or cramped.
True outdoors persons eschew packing along power sources but why suffer? The Jackery Portable Power Station Explorer 300 provides the juice to power up appliances, smart devices and everything else. It charges up to 80 percent in as little as two hours and provides safe and stable power for your entire trip. You can even buy a solar panel to power it up in the wild. This power station contains two AC outlets, one USB-C port, 1 fast-charge USB 3.0 port, one USB-A port and one DC car port.
When braving the wild, lions, tigers and bears are the least of your worries. The true predators are flies, wasps and mosquitoes. This Citronella candle is a $3 investment you'll be glad you made. In fact, get a handful so you can keep your next excursion 100% bug-free.
What's better than relaxing in the great outdoors? Relaxing in the great outdoors while cracking open a cold one, of course. The Coleman Camping Chair is one of our favorites chairs made for the wild, complete with a cup holder and built-in cooler that accommodates up to four cans. Its steel frame can brave any terrain and its cushioned back provides more comfort than many other camping chairs.
A good camping table isn't just for meals, it's also a great place to play board and video games, prepare meals or just relax with a cup of coffee. The ALPS Mountaineering Eclipse Table is one of our favorite tables made for the outdoors. Just under the tabletop are four cup holders to help prevent any accidental spills. It's also lightweight so you won't have to lug around another heavy piece of equipment.
When it comes to camping stoves, size matters but heat output matters even more. The Coleman Triton Propane Stove offers two burners and up to 22,000 BTUs which is more than enough to braise, boil and fry your grub. Its two wind guards ensure your flame stays lit even under less-than-ideal weather conditions. It's also easy to clean to boot.
Lugging around your heavy cookware from your kitchen is a great way to get a massive headache. The Stanley Adventure Even-Heat Camp Pro Cook Set is one of our favorite camping cookware that doesn't skimp on quality. It contains everything you need to make restaurant quality meals in the wild including a 4.75-quart stock pot, a 1.9-quart saucepan, an 8.4-inch frying pan, vented lids, a collapsible cutting board, a spatula, a spoon, two trivets and even a bungee to keep the whole kit together.
The outdoors is free of the light pollution of the city, so you'll definitely want to pack along a light source. The Lighting Ever LED Camping Lantern is one of our favorite camping lanterns because it's incredibly bright. It last up to 12 hours before needing to be charged up again and offers four different lighting modes.
It's not uncommon for campers to pack everything from laptops to espresso machines for their camping trips. One of the best impractical things to pack along is our favorite portable projector the Anker Nebula Mars II. Whether it's aimed at a hanging white blanket or the ceiling of a tent, you can enjoy up to three hours of playtime to watch movies, shows or even play video games. Whatever you decide to watch with this device, you can enjoy breathtaking clarity and solid audio quality.
Packing for your trip is half the battle, and if you're not careful you may forget a handful of essentials. The BOMKI Grilling and Camping Cooking Utensils Set is one of our favorite camping cooking sets because keeps all the tools you need to whip up a meal inside a handy case, complete with heat-proof gloves.
