The Best New Camping Chairs And Tables For 2019

Turn your tent into a real home-from-home by fitting it out with camping furniture.

Chairs, tables, even sofas… there’s certainly no shortage of ideas out there to keep your tent comfortable.

OUTWELL BERLAND M TABLE
outwell.com
£160
Another classy piece of Scandinavian camping kit from Outwell that marries tasteful good looks with technical know-how. So here’s the science bit first. The tabletop is made from Tetrameld – a tough, lightweight honeycomb composition comprising glassfibre, polypropylene and melamine. But forget all that and simply enjoy the stylish dark wood-effect finish.

COLEMAN FESTIVAL KICKBACK FOLDING CHAIR

£29.99
This new folding chair from Coleman is perfect for kicking back and relaxing at a festival or on the campsite. It has a lightweight foldable design with carry handle to easily transport to and from your tent or between stages. The chair is fitted with a back pouch for storage.

VANGO POP CHAIR

£35
The Pop is new to Vango’s 2019 collection, featuring a comfortable wrap-around design that prevents chilly draughts around your extremities! Available in blue, red or grey and orange, it will add a pop of colour to your camping essentials. The steel frame and 600 denier polyester mean it’s durable and robust, but it packs away small in the boot.

OUTWELL AIR DELIGHT LAKE CHAMBERLAIN SOFA

£180
Outwell’s range of stylish inflatable furniture was hugely popular when it launched in 2018 As a result, the collection is being expanded in 2019 with the introduction of a lower cost – but no less chic – selection of furniture, including the Lake Chamberlain sofa. The new furniture can be used indoors or out, with a comfortable but durable fabric cover. Because they’re not self-inflating and therefore don’t have built-in electric pumps, they’re lighter and easier to fold away than the more expensive models.

KAMPA SUMMER CHAIR

Price TBC
Sometimes simple is all you need and this new chair from Kampa does the straightforward extremely well. The Summer chair has an aluminium frame, 100 kg loading capacity and weighs just 2.35 kg. It folds down easily and packs away flat. The chair also comes with a three-year warranty so you know it’s not going to fall apart after one camping season.  

ROBENS KAYA CHAIR

£150
Without any word of exaggeration, the new Kaya chair is one of the most stylish pieces of camping furniture we’ve ever seen. It simply looks stunning. And it’s not all about appearances. Made with a special, highly breathable, synthetic blend that mimics wool, the Kaya is soft to the touch. The light bamboo frame opens and folds in seconds and it all packs away in its own carry bag. It’s certainly not cheap but will certainly add some glamour to your camping set-up.

HELINOX PLAYA BEACH CHAIR XL
helinox.com
Price £180
If car boot space is an issue, then finding furniture that packs away small is vital. The new Playa is basically an XL version of the Helinox Beach Chair; lightweight, sturdy and comfortable with plenty great back and neck support. It has a lower overall profile with shorter legs, which makes it ideal for getting into a relaxing position on the beach but is just as at home on the campsite.  

KAMPA LUMBAR CHAIR

Price TBC
If you like to spend a lot of time sitting around on the campsite doing very little (and who doesn’t?), something like this might be worth considering. This new camping chair from Kampa features an adjustable lumbar support strap to help prevent back pain. Helpfully it also has a built-in drinks holder so you don’t need to bend over to pick up your glass. Result!
