Pick by capacity and season: 3-season tents suit most camping, winter needs 4-season. Check waterproofing (mm water column) and ease of pitching.
Look at the comfort temperature rating (°C) and fill type (synthetic/down). Down is light and warm but loses performance when wet; synthetic handles damp better.
Gas cartridges are convenient and clean — ideal for most camping; liquid fuel is more reliable in cold and at altitude. Check cartridge compatibility for your stove.
Hard coolers keep cold longer — ideal for car camping; cooler bags are light and portable, fine for short trips. Electric models can run off a caravan socket.
