Straight-up reviews of water, beach and outdoor gear.
KXOne Slider 410 Review
The KXOne Slider 410 made our list of top 10 best 2-person kayaks as it is easy to set up and is well made. While it’s high-quality, there’s still room for improvement, and the kayak is quite short to comfortably seat two adults.
Gumotex Twist 2/1 Review
The Gumotex Twist 2/1 is a high-quality and lower-cost convertible choice that made number 6 on our list. It’s not as firm as the next level up of drop-stitch kayaks, but for this class of kayaks provides good durability and handling.
Sevylor Tahiti Plus Review
The Sevylor Tahiti Plus is extremely portable and comes at a very reasonable price. Unfortunately, this sacrifices the quality of the paddling experience. Read more in our in-depth Sevylor Tahiti Plus review.
Gumotex Thaya Review
The Gumotex Thaya is an excellent kayak for its quality, packability and versatility. We love that it packs down all-in-one and can be configured to fit one, two or three people.
Razor Kayaks X2 High-Pressure Review
The Razor Kayaks X2 High-Pressure is one of our best inflatable 2-person kayaks UK for good reason. It’s a comfortable, easy-to-use performance machine, and you won’t get a kayak like this for this price anywhere else.
Razor Kayaks R2 Ultra Review
Built with the same materials found in rescue boats, the Razor Kayaks R2 Ultra is our pick of 2-person inflatable kayaks. It’s super high quality, versatile, and best of all - great to paddle. Read more in our Razor Kayaks R2 Ultra review.
The North Face Blue Kazoo
The North Face Blue Kazoo is a mummy-shaped bag that offers a great balance of warmth and quality at a reasonable weight and price. It has great water repellency and uses soft, breathable fabrics with good warmth distribution. Read more in our Blue Kazoo review.
Therm-a-Rest Hyperion 20
At a mere 1lb 4oz/600g, the Therm-a-Rest Hyperion is INSANELY light for a sleeping bag of this quality. It's been specifically engineered to be light weight so it's perfect for longer hikes - but keep in mind that does mean some compromises. Read more in our detailed sleeping bag review.

Driftsun Rover 220 Review

Aquaglide Navarro 145 Review
When we look at the Aquaglide Navarro 145, we see a great deal of versatility and durability. It’s well-built with the 600 denier hex ripstop polyester and the drop-stitch floor. Read more in our in-depth review.
Itiwit X500 2P Review
The Itiwit X500 is way better than its 1 person in so many ways, particularly in its quality. It comes with a rigid drop-stitch floor, and it was easier to manoeuvre despite its low profile. If you’re looking for speed, this is a great option. Read more in our in-depth review.
Aquaglide McKenzie 125 Review
If you’re looking for an easy to inflate kayak that performs well on the water, you’re in for an adventure with the Aquaglide Mckenzie 125! As an upscale version from its older models, it has made significant changes and you bet it’s definitely a competitive one on the market.
Gumotex Rush 2 Review
The Gumotex Rush 2 promises stability and speed for touring on the coast, and has ample storage space for when we want to refuel and grab a sandwich. It weighs a good 15.5 kg and packs down to a compact size of 64 x 48 x 28 cm.
Advanced Elements AdvancedFrame Convertible Elite Review
Performance-wise, the Advanced Elements AdvancedFrame Convertible Elite exceeded our expectations. Stability, rigidity, and the nitty-gritty details that made the experience fun and worry-free. It’s a great choice for proper touring and recreational use.
Sea to Summit Traverse Tv3
Sea to Summit typically makes well-constructed products, and their Traverse Tv3 is yet another example. While not as warm as others we tried, the synthetic fill helps keep the price down, and it’s clearly a durable bag that will last you a long time. We also like its unique triple zipper design that helps adjust the bag for warmer or cooler nights.
Kelty Cosmic Ultra 20F
The Kelty Cosmic Ultra 20F is a quality bag at a great intersection of warmth, weight, comfort and cost. Though mummy shaped, it has a slightly wider foot box so there was a reasonable amount of room to move, the zips worked well and the internal pocket was conveniently placed.
