Camping stools...!

Volky · May 25, 2016

Jumped on an old thread, but it got a bit buried, so I'm trying again!

We need a couple of stools for the kids, light and the right height for the table in the Cali (a T5, 2015). Ideally a pair that would pack in with the two chairs in the tailgate. I'm going cross-eyed from googling - anyone found the solution please?!

Try looking at Isabella foot/camping stools. We have them for kids and you can also buy a top that turns them into a table (very handy for seating a glass of vino when kids have gone to bed).

We got these from Decathlon in France - they are know as Quechua FOLDABLE-STOOL, they don't appear to be on the Decathlon UK website:

They fit perfectly inside the Cali camping chairs in the boot, and if you put them in seat first then you can still fit in other stuff like electrical hook up cable.

Further googling appears to show that they have been discontinued :-(

These look pretty similar to my Quechua ones, and at £9 each are probably worth a punt...

Thanks to everyone - especially you Tony! I'll check out the Vango ones. Yet something else to buy for the Cali - but no regrets so far!

They look like just the thing I am looking for - can you confirm if they fit within the tailgate

No idea, I have the Quechua ones, but at 9 quid I would take a gamble. If anything the vango ones look a little smaller.

We have these from go outdoors but they don't reach the table. They do fit in the tailgate chairs easily enough. We have squeezed 3 in!

We have found that chairs that are the right height for children still don't reach the table so are now deliberating whether to get a table extension but would need one each end with 3 children so would be quite expensive!

If you were in California - you could take up this offer - seen on Highway 98.

Love the look of the table extensions, but after a longer trip this weekend we found the Cali outdoors table more use for food prep - we have one of the seat/table all in one things and sat at this. Still on the hunt for stools at the right height, though, and will post as and when found!
