“Super quick dispatch and delivery, ordered a sea to summit sleeping bag, and then a sleeping mat the following week and both arrived the next day. Great products!”
“When deciding on outdoor gear, I like to pick up the phone and chat with the experts & pick their brain. This is where this great Kiwi business stands out from what is a very crowded market.
They took the time on the phone to walk me through my options (after listening and taking into account my height, budget, and intended use/s,) and explained the pros and cons of each option within the parameters mentioned above.
This is where I struggled with the bigger companies; they just don't have the knowledge, insight or interest to 'sell' me their products. Unlike some of their direct competitors, you can also be confident that any sale prices advertised with Intents Outdoors are a true reflection of the full RRP (and not some made up "50% discount" in order to move old stock.)
If you've found the big retailers like to give you the run-around and/or you're fed with trying to get a response (there's absolutely a market trend here with service levels of big vs smaller businesses,) I highly recommend you reach out to Intents Outdoors for a chat about your gear requirements. After it's maiden outing, I am happy to say the tent did what it does without fault.”
“Ordered some camping utensils here, and the transactions was smooth as silk. They had the good offer on the time and they are the most convenient for me to purchase the items I needed. Glad to have found them online.”
“I bought the Helinox ultralight Chair Zero. Shipped next day, arrived within the projected timeframe. Excellent quality product. Chair will be an asset on the TA, comfortable, sturdy and most importantly, lightweight.”
“Recently purchased an Indie 1 model tent which I am v pleased with. Easy to pitch and the fact that you can use your walking pole as the tent pole is great. A suggestion for future tents is to make the height of the tent 100 to 150mm higher. I think this would give just the little bit more headroom and make it a better tent. The extra material in the tent to do this would not add much weight at all. Otherwise it is a great design.”
“MCX 2 person tent and ground sheet.
The tent arrived in a day which was awesome. Pitched it in the backyard to see how it went as some reviews had it as a difficult setup. Once you see how the doors offset it is not hard at all. I really love the double vestibules as they are a decent size compared to my last two tents, the upright doors will also keep the rain from entering when you step in.
The second night was at a camping ground and it went up no hitches. It was a super blustery night and gave me a real time experience without the rain and once pegged down it was rock solid. I also use the ground sheet (Tracker 2) and found this no problem. I would prefer if it also covered one vestibule ground but not a major issue.
I have kept one star as I have yet to use it on a hike, but have two nights booked in the Kaimanawa Forest later this week. It will get the real test then and I will report back, so far, so good”
“Great range of hiking tents and camping gear at excellent prices. Really fast delivery in cardboard packaging (only $5 to our rural address). Love that every listing includes the product weight! So much easier to browse with particular requirements. Awesome website and company. Recommending to all my friends and whānau!”
“I haven’t put the tent I bought up yet, so can’t comment on that, but the delivery of the item was lightening fast. It arrived at a rural address in Wellington the day after I ordered it. Fabulous! :)”
