We have been familiar with pop-up tents for some time now, the popular Speedy and Malamoo tents provide campers with shelter with a flick of the wrist, and once you’ve got the knack of it, you can pack them away almost as quickly.<\/p>\n

Now you can ‘pop-up’ more than just your tent with an ever-increasing range of collapsible camp accessories<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Get yourself some of this pop-up gear and make preparation and setup for your next camp trip compact and fast.<\/p>\n

Pop Up Tents<\/h2>\n

These have been around for a while, most recently we have seen the addition of larger family models.<\/p>\n

All you need is a few pegs and the tent does the rest of the work for you.<\/p>\n

The Malamoo and Speedy<\/a> range offer shelters for two to four, all of which pack up into flat discs that slide easily into tight spaces.<\/p>\n

\"Oztent<\/p>\n

The Malamoo Pop Up Tent from Oztent is one of the easiest tents to set up. <\/em><\/p>\n

Pop-Up Dish Washing Tub<\/h2>\n

With integrated dish and utensil drainers, the Companion Pop-Up Dish Tray even features a plug so you can empty water easily. They’re also heat resistant and easily collapsed for storage and transport.<\/p>\n

\"Companion<\/p>\n

Perfect for your caravan or camp kitchen, a pop up sink makes washing up easier in the bush. <\/em><\/p>\n

Pop-Up Kettles<\/h2>\n

I like things to be securely stowed in my vehicle, and there is nothing like finding a spot where things fit nicely without wasting space or needing to tie it down.<\/p>\n

Kettles don’t abide by these guidelines. They are an awkward shape, waste space, and nothing can be stacked on top of them. A Companion Pop-Up Kettle<\/a> solves this problem. It fits easily in a tub, sits nicely inside a frypan, even slides under a seat and stores neatly in caravans and camper trailers. Check them here…<\/a>go on, you know you want one!<\/p>\n

\"Companion<\/p>\n

Storing your kettle in your vehicle or camper trailer is a breeze when it pops down to save space.<\/em><\/p>\n

Pop-Up Storage Tubs<\/h2>\n

Don’t keep moving an empty tub around your vehicle, if you’ve consumed the food that originally resided inside a Companion Pop Up Storage Tub with Lid<\/a>, collapse it down and stow it out of the way.<\/p>\n

Two sizes available and featuring securely latched lids, these are not just for storage, they double up as dishwashing or laundry tubs with heatproof silicone walls and a polypropylene base and frame.<\/p>\n

\"Companion<\/p>\n

Keep all kinds of gear stashed away on the road in pop up storage tubs. <\/em><\/p>\n

Pop-Up Cooking Pots<\/h2>\n

Aimed more at the hiking market, the Sea To Summit X-Pot<\/a> has an aluminium base fused to food grade silicone sides and a BPA free lid that incorporates a strainer.<\/p>\n

Not suitable for the campfire, but these are great on smaller gas stoves and take up a portion of the space a normal saucepan would in your vehicle.<\/p>\n

\"Sea<\/p>\n

Ideal for smaller gas stoves, these are a space saving choice for hikers and campers. <\/em><\/p>\n

Pop-Up Tableware<\/h2>\n

Also from Sea To Summit, the ‘X Series<\/a>‘ of tableware is made of food-grade silicone and polypropylene bases that double as chopping boards.<\/p>\n

Designed to nest inside each other, the ‘X-Series’ will see your camping tableware kit reduced to a handful of frisbee sized discs (I don’t condone their use as a frisbee, I’ve never tried it either!<\/em>) that will stow easily in any camp kitchen.<\/p>\n

\"Sea<\/p>\n

The multi-purpose X-Series are perfect for lightweight adventures, and for weekends at your favourite campsite. <\/em><\/p>\n

Pop-Up Bucket<\/h2>\n

A bucket is always handy, just bulky to pack. Not with the Companion Collapsible Bucket<\/a>! Use it as a camp bin, water supply for a portable shower, laundry tub, wood collection, the list goes on. You need a collapsible bucket… well, just because!<\/p>\n

\"Companion<\/p>\n

Washing and cleaning up around camp is easier with a compact bucket. <\/em><\/p>\n

So there you have it, the fun and functional range of pop up gear that’s easy to use on your adventures, and packs down nice and compact when not in use.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There seems to be new pop-up items ‘popping up’ in the range all the time. What’s the coolest pop-up gear you’ve come across?<\/strong><\/p>\n
