Over the years, Aldi has sold a variety of camping products, from tents and bedding to backpacks and accessories. While the quantity, timing, and the sourcing of the products can change from year to year, you can always expect the grocer to serve up a healthy dose of outdoor gear just in time to hammer in your stakes.

Here’s our roundup of some of the backpacks and accessories. Be forewarned: these are Aldi Finds, which means they’re only around for a limited time. Once they’re gone, you won’t see them again until next year.

Adventuridge Collapsible Tub, Bucket,  or Dish Drainer

Large tub.

Large dish drainer.

Small tub.

Small bucket.

Product Code: 52830 (large tub / dish drainer) or 700648 (small tub / bucket)

Cost: $12.99 (large tub / dish drainer) or $8.99 (small tub / bucket)

Manual: none online yet

Thoughts: Aldi has been selling these for a while, and the tub is a staple in our own camping expeditions. Aldi sells a few varieties, including a large tub, a large dish drainer, a small tub, and a small bucket. All come in blue or green and are designed for camping use, although you can use them around the house, too.

The large tub has a 5-gallon capacity and is 18.6 inches x 14.9 inches x 9.7 inches expanded; that last number drops to 2.8 inches when collapsed. The dish drainer, meanwhile, has a 4.2-gallon capacity and measures 18 inches x 14 inches x 8 inches when expanded, with the last number dropping to 2.5 inches after collapse.

Aldi does not currently have any posted product information about the small tub or the bucket, although they operate the same as their larger counterparts.

Adventuridge Lighted Tent Fan With Remote Control

Product Code: 801343

Cost: $14.99

Manual: 2017

Thoughts: Aldi has been selling this fan for several years, although the 2020 version is the first we’ve seen that also comes with a remote. This extra also comes alongside a $3 higher price tag, up from the $12.99 of years past.

This fan sports 3 light settings (high, low, nightlight) and 2 fan speeds (high, low). It comes with a hanging hook that it claims is compatible with most tents and soft foam blades, so it shouldn’t be a cutting hazard. It requires 4 D-cell batteries, which are included. We aren’t sure how long the batteries will last, although the manual lists some projected times, including up to 72 hours for the low fan setting and 336 hours for the nightlight. We’re also not sure how much weight this fan will have with 4 D-cell batteries. Still, but it might be worth a look if you need some lighting or a breeze for your tent. The warranty is for 2 years.

Adventuridge Foldable Chair

Product Code: 52802

Cost: $7.99

Manual: none online yet

Thoughts: This is your standard folding chair, with polyester fabric and a steel frame, like you’d see at big box retailers. It comes with a cup holder on the armrest and a mesh storage net in the back, and is easily stored inside the included carry bag. As of 2020, it is available in green, gray, or blue and comes with a 2-year warranty. We bought one back in 2017 and it is one of our favorite folding chairs.

Adventuridge Lightweight Portable Chair

Product Code: 700984

Cost: $14.99

Manual: none online yet

Thoughts: This compact 1-piece shock-corded quick-setup frame, manufactured by Westfield Outdoors, is designed especially for backpacking. It is made of polyester fabric, carries corner loops on the frame, and comes with a carry bag with handle. When open, the chair is 20.5 inches x 20.5 inches x 26.6 inches and has a 250 pound weight limit. It comes in green or blue and is backed by a 2-year warranty.

Intex Inflatable Camp Chair

Product Code: 702249

Cost: $19.99

Manual: none online yet

Thoughts: This Intex chair, which comes in gray, measures 48 inches long x 44 inches wide x 38 inches high and features a flocked surface for comfort and a cup holder. It has a weight capacity of 220 pounds and folds for travel. We haven’t used this model, but our previous experience with Aldi inflatable chairs hasn’t been great: we hope this one is better.

Adventuridge Camping Floor Mat

Product Code: 90519

Cost: $19.99

Manual: none online yet

Thoughts: This mat measures 98 inches by 118 inches (roughly 8 feet by 10 feet) and appears designed to fit with the Adventuridge 6-Person Tent. It can be cut to size, though. It’s made of PVC and polyester and is both nonslip and mold resistant. It comes in either green or gray and includes a carry bag.
