Stanley Adventure Fast Flow Water Jug
Used it for a weekend with large family group. Was able to do waters one day and mixed drinks the next. Wouldn’t compare it to yetis / RTICs / etc but it will keep ice for the day. Lightweight when empty as well

Expensive but Functional

Review for
Yeti Rambler Bottle Sling
Like most Yeti products, this is well built but likely overpriced. Purchased this to clip to a mystery ranch backpack that I have without a cupholder. Works well, albeit for the small range of Yeti tumblers that are this size. Annoying that it does not have a drawstring / cinch to close the top and allow for multiple sizes. Ultimately well built product that fit my need.

Great lightweight coat
Written on Apr 20, 2024
Perfect for layering. Has a semi water resistant coating, good for drizzle but wouldn’t be waterproof enough for heavy rain. Has a slight stretch to it so good for activities. Got one for me and my dad and we both wear them pretty consistently

Pricey, but worth it

Review for
DOMETIC 11L Hydration Water Jug
Bought this and the faucet together. Have been using pretty often on road trips, makes it super easy to refill bottles in the car. Easy to carry with the straps and easy to fill up. Doesn't take up too much space given shape. Definitely not big enough to take as only water source if going offgrid, but works well as auxiliary sink/drinking water. Pricey for a fancy jug, but worth it IMO

Comfortable, but be sure to check sizing

Exped Deepsleep Mat Duo 7.5
Extremely comfortable for a portable inflatable mattress. Bought for use in a roof top tent. Unfortunately purchased the wrong size, so this was a bit wide for the footprint of the tent. It worked, but impacted the zippering.
Bought a cheap portable inflation pump on Amazon (exped makes one but it was sold out everywhere). Took about 3min to inflate each time. Not super compact when rolled up, but very low profile when laid flat.

Great, no leaks
Written on Feb 24, 2022
Had previously used an igloo product that had a bad design on the venting hole that made it leak when turned on its side. This product is much better and vents very well. I haven't tried hooking up a pump to it but I bet you could given the standard size top. Flat sides make it easy to put on its side on a table.

Nite Ize NiteDog Rechargeable LED Leash
Great for winter walks. Just wish it was a tad longer, but overall works very well. Battery charging with USB is much easier than having to keep track of small CR batteries. Battery life seems good, so far have not needed to recharge.

Love it! Super compact

Review for
Sea to Summit UltraLight Hammock XL
I have the Eno Doublenest for more general/everyday use, but wanted to get something smaller for backpacking and/or flight based trips. Super lightweight and compresses to about the size of a fist. Only complaint is that you have to buy the specialized straps from them as well, but those are equally compact. Be careful with those, though, as I got in trouble at Glacier NP for them being too narrow.

Collapses down super easily

Review for
Klymit Drift Car Camp Pillow
Great car camping pillow. Collapses down very easily and doesn;'t take up too much space. I leave 2 of these and 2 sleeping bags in my roof-top tent on my truck and the tent closes fine. I'd say probably limited to car camping though. Definitely super comfortable and the cover is a super nice feature!

Multiple uses, but far from perfect

Review for
Camp Chef Collapsible Garbage Can
Could see this being used for yardwork too in addition to designed use. Couple issues though,
1. No way to secure bag and have lid closed. My intended use was a multi-day camping trip. Since you have to secure the bag around the upper lip of the container, there's no way to close the cover with a bag in. Means you either have to take the bag down or leave it open and risk critters coming to find your trash!
2. Has to use large contractor sized bags (vs a smaller kitchen sized bag). Guess I should've known given the size, but still is annoying.
3. It's bulky! Thankfully it's super light and lays flat but it still has a large footprint when folded down (about the size of a small hoola-hoop)
All in all, cheap and works for what I wanted, but definitely could be better.
