Goodies For Vanlife
( We recommend )
Below are some of the products we use regularly in our campervan setup. If you follow us on YouTube, you’ll probably have seen many of these in use during our travels.
You can find everything we use in our Amazon shop here, but we’ve shared a few of our absolute favourites below — along with a few reasons why we genuinely love them.

Why we love this;
-
Much cheaper than the Snow Peak alternative, and comes with the grill included
-
Lightweight, compact, and easy to store — ideal when space is tight in the van.
-
The steel base makes it easy to level and protects the grass
-
Practical design that actually feels sturdy and well-made — not flimsy like a lot of travel gear.
-
Makes outdoor living so much easier — whether it’s campsite cooking, beach days, or quick roadside stops.
Why we love this ;
-
Compact and eco-friendly composting toilet for campervans, perfect for off-grid adventures and van life travel.
-
Easy to install, chemical-free, low odour design with a removable waste container for simple cleaning.
-
Space-saving and lightweight, ideal for campers, motorhomes, and converted vans.
Why we love this set;
• Compact, stackable design with no rattling — the whole set stores away neatly, saving valuable space in the van.
• Perfect size for campervan hobs — unlike standard pans that are too big, or camping sets that feel too small, these fit beautifully on 2-ring burners while still being practical for everyday cooking.
• Safe ceramic non-stick coating — no harsh chemicals, easy to clean, and much nicer to cook with.
• Strong, sturdy quality that feels built to last — not like the flimsy camping sets you often replace after one season. You can genuinely feel the difference.
Why We Love This Canopy
-
Quick and easy setup — attaches effortlessly to your van’s side rail and can be installed solo in minutes
-
Strong dome-style design provides excellent stability and weather protection, even in heavy rain and strong winds
-
Extra headroom makes it ideal for taller campers (perfect if you’re over 6 ft tall)
-
Flexible and portable — bring it when you need it or leave it at home to save space
-
Expandable design lets you add extra side panels to create a larger outdoor living or dining area
-
Budget-friendly alternative to expensive permanent van awnings without sacrificing durability or functionality
-
Ideal for campervans, van life adventures, road trips, camping holidays, and all-weather outdoor use
Why we love the Omnia Oven 🍴
The Omnia Oven is basically a mini oven for anyone travelling with just a gas hob — perfect for van life, camping, or holidays on the road.
While the SQ Grill is brilliant for quick meals like chips, bacon, and toasties, the Omnia takes things to the next level. Think lasagne, shepherd’s pie, pasta bakes, cakes, and even apple crumble 🤤
If you love cooking or baking and don’t want to give it up while travelling, this is such a game-changer.
A couple of downsides? Cooking times can be a little longer, and it’s not the smallest thing to store — especially in a smaller van.
Overall, we think it’s worth it if you enjoy proper home-cooked meals on the road. If you mainly cook basics like chips and nuggets, the SQ Grill might suit you better… although we’re greedy and have both 😅
