Even for car camping, these are going to be realllly borderline. That sleeping bag appears to have zero insulation, so anything under 60 degrees is going to be a stretch for it.

The camping char probably holds 150 pounds max and it WILL fall apart quickly.

The tent isn't going to be even kind-of sort-of waterproofed. It's also not likely to be very stable or durable.

I'm certainly not saying every camper needs a 400 dollar Mountain Hardwear tent. But I'm not sure I'd use these for anything other than a camping trip in my backyard.

Sometimes you really get what you pay for. I love escaping to the mountains and lakes; and here in Arizona where it's 112 in the valley and 60 up there it is soooo nice. I have got to say this stuff looks sketchy at best. I use a reasonably priced REI tent ($120) and it has held up for years. This would probably be fine for an outing or two in a nice weather perfect condition environment. Bottom line do some research before you buy camping gear (or anything).

Ozark Trail Items are really not too bad. I bought a bigger "all you need" set, and for the price, it is pretty good. I've used the tent at least 3 different times in the summer, and it has held up well, and I've been dry in the rain. The sleeping bag is pretty light weight, but the chairs are pretty good, and I'm a heavy guy (around 240 lbs).

So are there better products, yes, but for the price, and for the new to camping/ once and awhile camper, this brand can't be beat. It is a great way to start, and you can always spend more later.

I agree with @jadedmonkey. Ozark Trail isn't all that bad. No, I would not hike with this gear. No, I would not use this gear in any beyond "fair condition" weather. However, for the weekend camper and those that go to official camp sites (water, power, and showers)... this is fine. And yeah, it is a cheap buy if you want to let your kids sleep out back and still be protected from the elements. Not everything is for everybody, but most things still have a target market.

As others have said this stuff isn't for the backcountry, but for car camping the stuff is just fine. I have an Ozark Trail mesh chair that's probably on its fourth or fifth summer without a problem. Bought a 40-60 degree Ozark trail bag from Wal-Mart yesterday and after testing it out, it will work great for warm weather camping (temps around where I live are usually upper 60's at night this time of year).

I use my Ozark Trail stuff when I know I'll be around drunk friends (or be tipsy myself). Much rather have my $10 bag trashed than my $200 Kelty bag. Yeah, it's not high class stuff, but would work for the vast majority of casual campers on a budget.

@agentbolt & @defiantblob: Never did I say this would rival a $120 or $400 tent, sleeping bag, or chair. I said this would be good to see if you like camping, if you are not one. I, myself, would not purchase this set, as I already have a nice tent, sleeping bag, and chair.

As for the "you get what you pay for" mantra is total bunk. I have a $50 Coleman Sundome tent that I have been using at least monthly for the past 12 years. I also HAVE taken some Outdoor Products gear on a 6 day backpacking trip, and it was perfect for the job, and didn't cost me an arm and a leg.

OK It is not hard core camping but for the price? My dogs know how to destroy Eurekas from the outside. Good cheap deal

Hey, log in or sign up first!

Whatever it is you're trying to do can ONLY be done by registered, logged-in Deals.Woot members. Why? Because they're better people than you. Don't worry: you can easily improve yourself by logging into your Woot account or signing up for a new one.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
