Cheaper than the high street and holds up

Compared it against a well known brand I'd been eyeing up in town and this one came in around a third less for a very similar spec. Set up was easy enough and the seams have stood up to two wet weekends so far. Delivery took a few days longer than they said but nothing dramatic. For a family tent that gets used a few times a year it's hard to justify paying more.

better than the shop option

Went with them over the sports shop in town because the same running shoe was quite a bit cheaper online. The grip is fine on wet pavements and the cushioning is more forgiving than the one I used before. Arrived the next day, no issues.

A very good tent for the money

I would say this is an excellent tent for the price, and I am pleased to recommend it to others. My husband and I took it to Cornwall in late summer and it stayed dry through a proper downpour. The site was easy to navigate and the customer team answered my question about guy ropes within a day. We will certainly look here first next time.

needed something for the garden

Wanted a little pop up shade for the garden as the sun's been brutal this summer. Ordered on a Tuesday and it turned up on the Thursday, which was quick. Went up in about five minutes with the help of my boyfriend. Only thing is the colour is a touch darker than the photos.

Needed a proper coat for the dog walks

My old waterproof had given up after a wet winter and the dog walks on the moors were becoming miserable. I wanted something with a hood that actually stays put in wind, so I read the reviews on here before ordering. The coat turned up well packaged and it has kept me dry through three weeks of rain so far. It's a bit snug around the arms, so I'd size up next time.

first order and fine so far

We needed a tent in a hurry because my son's school trip was on short notice and the old one had mould in it. This was my first time ordering from them and the checkout was straightforward. The tent came in a sturdy box and the poles were all there, and we've used it once already. The one thing I'd flag is the pegs are a bit flimsy, so I'd buy a better set alongside it.

a tent for the weekends

We needed something for the kids to sleep in on our weekends away, as the old one had gone floppy. Compared a few options online and this one had the best reviews for the money. It went up easily and the mesh is good for keeping midges out. Happy enough.

A sensible choice next to the big names

Looked at a couple of well known brands before deciding, and this one gave us a similar sized dome for noticeably less money. My daughter helped us set it up and we found the instructions clear enough. The fabric feels a little thinner than I'd have liked but it has kept us dry so far. It's arrived a day later than the estimate, which was a shame.

sleeping mat does the job

Bought the self inflating mat for a trip to Snowdonia and it's been decent. Took a couple of nights to get the valve right but it's comfy now. Delivery was quick though the box was a bit battered when it came. Wouldn't say no to another one.

good wetsuit, slow returns sorting

I've been surfing for years so I know what a decent wetsuit should feel like, and this one is comfy with good seams. The only thing that dragged was the returns process, I had to print a label and wait a few days for them to confirm the swap in the account. The price is fair compared with the surf shops in Cornwall. Would still order from them again.

Still the best value I know of

This is the place I go to for camping kit and I've been using them since well before the pandemic. My most recent purchase was a pair of trekking poles, which have held up on several hill walks in the Dales. The ordering was simple and the poles arrived well packed. Good stuff.

third pair of walking boots from them

I bought my first pair of walking boots from them about eight years ago and I've gone back every time since. This latest pair for the Lake District trip is the same make as before and the fit is spot on. Checkout is still quick and the emails tell you where the parcel is, which I appreciate. Nothing has ever been left out or sent wrong in all that time.

still my first port of call

I'd say this is the best place I've found for camping kit, and I've been a customer for close to a decade. The latest order was a replacement sleeping mat and it arrived quicker than most of my past orders. Prices are fair and the returns process has always been easy when I needed it. I'd happily keep going back.

Reasonable but the zips are the weak point

I've been buying from this site on and off for about six years, mostly camping gear and the odd bit of kit for the garden. The thing that stood out this time was how long the order sat in processing before it shipped, close to a week. Once it arrived the tent was fine, though one of the zips on the inner door has started catching already. Not a disaster, but I expected better for the price.

My top choice for camping kit

I think this is the strongest option for camping gear I've come across in a while. The head torch I ordered is bright and the battery lasts through a full weekend. Checkout was quick and the item arrived well packed. Sorted.

an inflatable pillow that works

I bought the inflatable camping pillow for a trip to Devon and it was a sensible buy. Compared with the foam ones at the outdoor shop it cost about half as much and feels just as comfy. It packs down to nothing in the bag and the valve is easy to use. Arrived in good time and the packaging was neat. Good value for a small item.

Lightweight chairs for the allotment

Picked up a folding bag of kit from them before the bank holiday and the thing that stood out was how little the bag weighs when it's packed. Had a look at a couple of other sites first but these were a fair bit cheaper and the delivery came in two days, which was quicker than I expected. Haven't had any trouble with them so far.

Camping chairs are sorted

Got two camping chairs for the summer and first thing I noticed was how light they are. Set up in seconds and they fold down small enough for the boot. Bought them on the app and they were here in a few days. Lush.

The sleeping bag is a good one

Got the sleeping bag for a festival and honestly it's been brilliant. Warm enough even when it dropped to like 4 degrees, and it packs down smaller than I expected. Bought it on a whim on the app and it was there in two days.

Better than the cheap one I had

Got this instead of the budget one I had before and the difference is night and day. Pitch is quicker and it seems much sturdier in the wind. Price was reasonable for what you get.
