REI’s New Releases Include Camp Kitchen Gear from $11

Camping and REI go together like hot dogs and mustard. If you’re into camping (or any outdoor activity), chances are you’ve visited the store to pick up some specialty gear. Whether you need a durable hiking backpack, some industrious cooking gear, new boots, or just a water bottle, REI’s always been a go-to spot for all things camping. And as sure as gear wears down over time, we trust REI to keep things fresh with the latest camping products.

Sure enough, REI just dropped a large batch of new arrivals into its camping section, and we hiked through them to find the best camp kitchen gear and more. From cooking sets and collapsible place settings for prepping and plating meals to a 33%-off chair to sit in while enjoying them, here are our TK favorite new arrivals at REI, from $11.

Yeti Rambler Stackable Lowball with MagSlider Lid

Yeti’s Rambler mugs are absolutely legendary — they’re the ideal camping mug, in my opinion., The double-wall vacuum insulation protects any coffee, water, spirits, wine, soup, or anything else you might want to keep hot or cold. And with Yeti’s MagSlider lid, you’ll be protected from splashes and escaping heat.

GSI Outdoors Glacier Stainless Dualist II Cookset

This cooking set might be new to REI, but it’s certainly not news that people totally love GSI Outdoors’ camping gear. This set really has it all: a 1.8-liter pot with a strainer lid, two insulated mugs, two bowls, two sporks, and a bag to carry it all in. The whole package is only 5.9 x 6.4 x 5.9 inches. Plus, you can shop many GSI pieces individually, like a boiler pot and a stainless steel deep plate.

Toaks Titanium Long Handle Spork with Polished Bowl

Whether you’re cooking up steaks, stirring some stew, or just taking bites of a morning hash, the high heat of campfire cooking can sometimes make it difficult to handle food. This titanium spork can withstand high temperatures, and its 8.6-inch length means you can keep a reasonable distance from whatever you’re stirring or picking up. 

Klymit Ridgeline Camp Chair

Sitting is important, especially when you’re dining outside. This colorful chair is somehow both a new arrival and recently discontinued, which really just means it’s heavily discounted. It has a high back and a padded headrest, making it a super comfortable option whose lightweight build means it’ll be easy to bring on any camping trip. 

GSI Outdoors Escape 1-Person Table Set

This collapsible place setting from GSI comes with a flat-folding silicone bowl and cup, which is handy for keeping your camping pack light. Both feature sturdy, nylon rims to keep them from spilling, and the set also includes a folding spork and a mesh carrying bag.

MSR PocketRocket 2 Mini Stove Kit

MSR’s portable stoves are always great, and this new option uses a nesting design to ensure it takes up minimal space in your pack. Included in the kit are a stove; a hard-anodized aluminum pot; a 16-ounce, BPA-free bowl; a clear lid with straining ports; a grip; and a nice container to hold all of it. 

Klymit Echo 12-Liter Hydration Pack

Despite our best intentions, we can never be fully sure how long a hike or camping trip is going to take. This comfortable backpack lets you bring 3 liters of liquid along with you so you can stay hydrated, clean food, or wash dishes. Another backpack compartment has 12 liters of space for the rest of your gear, while webbing straps and side pockets mean you can easily reach your keys, pocket knife, and other hiking essentials.

The North Face Trail Lite Down 0F Sleeping Bag

Let’s not bury the lede here: This sleeping bag from The North Face is 40% off. Its 600-fill-power down build is light but safe when the temperature is over 0 degrees Fahrenheit, and its mummy-like design has a hood that keeps your head warm while still giving you room to breathe. This is a great find.

Klymit Everglow Light Tube

You need good lighting when whipping up a meal after sunset, but lugging a big lantern is a pain. Enter: Klymit’s Everglow light tube, an inflatable LED light powered by USB input. It’s not quite glamping, but it’s a nice addition to your tent or campsite that “lights up a bigger area than I was expecting,” according to one REI shopper. Plus, it’s 29% off right now.
