Beast Best Budget for outdoor camping storage + table use
What equipment would you choose to meet your storage needs while camping outdoors?
Today, I would like to recommend a high-value solution - outdoor folding boxes * 2
(Yes, I specifically mentioned the quantity - one is too short, three is too tall, but two is just right.)
What are outdoor folding boxes? As shown in the picture below, it is a new category of storage boxes that extends from our commonly seen home storage boxes.
What are their features? In my opinion, the main differences are:
1. Foldable:
It does not take up space during transportation, making it convenient to carry.
2. Convenient multi-directional access:
Everything you bring for camping outdoors is necessary for use, and so it is equipped with both a table and storage functions. It is a major difference in the structure of outdoor folding boxes. You can place items on top of it while accessing them from different angles, making it a practical choice.
3. Aesthetically pleasing:
You may find this statement somewhat irrelevant, but truthfully, aesthetically pleasing products will always lift your mood, whether it is for personal viewing or taking pictures.
How do you choose one? Let me share my painful experience and point out some things to pay attention to:
1. The folding structure must have a locking mechanism.
In simpler terms, after the box is opened, the side must be able to be locked in place to prevent it from collapsing in the event of a collision. When moving outdoors, there will inevitably be bumps and knocks, so do not leave any hidden dangers.
2. Choose a capacity between 44 and 90 quarts if possible.
Some may suggest that you choose according to your needs, which is fine, but in actual use, you will find that boxes less than 44 quarts cannot hold much, while boxes over 90 quarts may not fit in many car trunks once opened. Therefore, I would recommend choosing between 44-90 quarts according to your needs.
3. The handle must be hollow.
This is a detail that is often overlooked. Until you fill it up and lift it with your fingers, you will realize how painful it is. Imagine carrying a box filled with 30 bottles of beer using two handles that are only as wide as one of your fingers. Unless you are a Kung Fu Panda, it will be torture. Therefore, trust me, choose a handle that is hollow and more comfortable to grip.
4. Choose a transparent side access board.
Whether you admit it or not, it is almost impossible to keep the contents of the box organized and remember everything in it. Therefore, a side access board that allows you to see what is inside before you open it is essential.
