Our Reviews

The ZOLEO Satellite Communicator is light and compact, making it a great addition to your trekking gear. While you can only use the app to send custom messages, the satellite range allows you to let people know your location and send SOS from anywhere in the world.

The Spinifex Square Folding Table has a great price for such an easy setup, but it's small and a little bit flimsy. Overall, it's a basic table that's not durable.

The Front Runner Expander Table is quite lightweight, sturdy and versatile but for its size, it's quite pricey. Overall, it's a basic table but is great for a variety of uses.

The OA Titan Table is great as a portable table for multiple uses, but it has a slightly longer setup time than other tables due to how small it packs down. Overall, it's strong, multiuse and compact table.

The Oztrail Folding Table is versatile as it has great storage, but it's not a dining table. It's a good cooking/kitchen table for camping.

The Trekology Portable Table is incredibly portable and lightweight, but it's also flimsy and has a slightly longer setup than other tables. Overall, it's just too small to be useful.

The BlackWolf Slatted Table is strong and great to sit around but it's quite pricey and annoying to set up. It's a good, strong family table.

The Zempire Kitpac Large V2 is a stylish table and has a built-in bottle opener but it's small for a family table. Overall, it's a modern and easy set up table.

The Helinox Table One is highly portable and lightweight, but this comes at the expense of being small and having a nylon table top. It's a good table for hiking but we wouldn't take it camping.

The MSR Elixir 2 has a high-quality construction and well-thought-out features. While it’s a bit heavy and is larger than other tents we’ve reviewed, it’s a versatile choice, prioritising comfort over lightweight.

The Nemo Hornet Elite OSMO backpacking tent is extremely lightweight and easy to set up. While it’s small, a bit delicate and on the expensive side, the tent is excellent for when lightweight is key, which it is when hiking.

The Glide Aquavate Duo kayak is a cheap and light kayak for occasional recreation use in flat water areas. As it’s very tight for two adults, it’s a good option for families with children, but it also has poor tracking and is not durable, hence why it’s not suitable for rough waters.

The Aqua Marina Laxo 320 is an easy kayak to set up and is stable out on the water. It does, however, take time to dry once finished and it can be quite cramped inside with two paddlers. There are also some durability issues. Overall, it’s a decent budget kayak for recreational use.

The KXOne Slider 410 is an easy-to-set-up and well-made kayak. While it’s high-quality, there’s room for improvements, and the kayak is quite short to comfortably seat two adults. While it moves nicely through the water, there is quite a bit of drag.

For beginners, kids and families, the Intex Challenger K2 is a straightforward and reasonably priced kayak. It lacks durability, tracks poorly and is a little uncomfortable, but it is very steady on the water. This kayak is excellent for leisurely kayaking on lakes and tranquil rivers.

With the extra benefit of being stable and simple to paddle, the Intex Explorer K2 inflatable tandem kayak delivers quick inflation and deflation. Due to its high edges, it can be challenging for smaller paddlers and it has poor tracking, little storage and limited storage. It's a reasonably priced kayak for leisurely day outings.

Although it's a little cramped and not the most pleasant kayak to paddle in, the Itiwit Drop-Stitch 1–2-person Cruising kayak is durable and nicely made. The kayak is a suitable option for the casual paddler for leisurely use on calm waters, despite its poor tracking.

The Aquaglide Navarro 145 tandem is a reliable and simple-to-control kayak. For the price, it delivers fantastic performance for leisure and multi-day adventures, especially when you require the added comfort of durability. It does, however, have weak tracking capabilities and is missing paddles and a pump.

Having a large weight capacity, the Advanced Elements AdvancedFrame Convertible Elite is a fast kayak, and due to its sturdy and well-built construction, it takes time to set up and is somewhat heavy when packed. In spite of these drawbacks, the kayak is quick and sturdy.

With this Razor R2 Ultra Kayak, there's simply nothing more you could want. It is durable, smooth on the water and simple to paddle, and it inflates and deflates quickly. One of the best 2-person inflatable kayaks on the market, even though it is a touch pricey, and is made of high-quality materials.

The Aquaglide Blackfoot 160 DS Angler Kayak is very versatile and stable, making it ideal for recreational kayaking as well as fishing alone or with a companion. It takes a little longer to inflate than other kayaks due to its size, but it is one of the best inflatable kayaks because it has a tonne of storage and other advantages.

All of your needs are met by the Razor X2 High-Pressure Kayak. Although pricey, it is our top 2-person inflatable kayak of 2024 because of its sturdy design, simplicity of inflation and deflation, comfort and storage capacity for hours of paddling.

The Oru Lake is extremely portable and cleverly designed to fold, however its low weight capacity and hull shape mean there are sacrifices in performance and comfort. Read on for our full detailed review.

The KXOne Slider 375 is a full drop-stitch hull designed for maximum firmness and cut-through. It handles well, though has slightly more drag than comparable models. Read on for our full detailed review.
