SEE ALSO: Finding the best camping tent doesn't have to be a struggle

This is a freestanding tent, and it's pretty easy to assemble. It's called "cabin-style" thanks to its spacious interior (100 square feet) and large mesh windows. There's also extended fly coverage over the door for added protection in case of rain.

There's only one door, but there are plenty of internal pockets and a Zippered E! Powerport to charge your devices inside the tent.

Best water bottle deal

Why we like it

Could we reallywrite this mini-roundup without mentioning at least one Stanley product? I mean, this is the internet, and Stanley Cups are basically the Taylor Swift of beverage containers at this point.

Best sleeping pad deal

$189.95 Save $74.22

Why we like it

Unlike a traditional sleeping bag, the NEMO Tensor Ultralight sleeping pad is like a lightweight air mattress that fits in your backpack. With three inches of quiet cushioning and an included Vortex pump sack to easily inflate and deflate, this sleeping pad provides comfort and convenience, no matter where you're going.

This sleeping pad has a lifetime warranty, so you can rest easy knowing you're covered for any unexpected issues.
