Camping Wagon Selection Strategy

2023-05-04

To sum up, it is to choose from "three views": one is the scene, the second is the performance, and the third is the crowd.
1. Look at the scene
Since the year when the camping fire started, all kinds of tents, canopies, folding tables and chairs, cooking utensils, and stoves have appeared in the camp. With the increasing equipment weight, small carts have become extremely important camping companions. After all, who has the strength to run around dragging dozens of kilograms of equipment?
For example, if you start with a small cart, it primarily pulls equipment. Or pull people?
Pulling equipment: pay more attention to whether the inner space and capacity of the cart are super large; pulling people (for children): pay more attention to whether the frame structure of the cart is safe and whether the load-bearing capacity is strong enough.
Whether there is enough space in the home.
Can the trunk of the car hold a large-sized stroller?
I live in an elevator room or a staircase room.
These are all questions you need to pay attention to before buying.
2. Look at the performance
Manufacturers usually introduce the trolley’s capacity, load-bearing capacity, weight, fabric, wheels, unfolding and storage dimensions, etc. first, such as 150L capacity, and 100kg load-bearing, but do you really understand?
Simply put:
A. If you use it to pull equipment, the size of the space of the small cart is more important, and it may allow you to know whether it meets your needs better than the capacity;
B. If it is used to carry people, the bottom metal structure of the stroller is more important, because the conventional load-bearing capacity on the market is basically above 80kg, which is enough to accommodate the weight of an adult, but the bottom frame is the key.
Therefore, in addition to the above two data, we need to fully understand the composition of the product:
What are the advantages and disadvantages of fabrics, metal frames, tires, etc.?
Choose the most suitable material and structure from the details, and you can find the stroller you like.
(1) Key points of metal structure
In terms of materials, it has been written in articles such as tents, canopies, moisture-proof pads, and sleeping bags.
Iron, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, and carbon fiber, the weight decreases step by step, and the price increases step by step. The following focuses on the difference in the shape of the skeleton.
The skeleton structure of the trolley can be distinguished from the storage shape: umbrella shape and plate shape.
A. Umbrella Shape



It can be stored in an umbrella-like shape: which means that the metal structure of the trolley uses a large number of foldable connectors, which are composed of M-shaped or W-shaped staggered four-way central extrusion.
This structure can save space as much as possible after storage, but there is a lack of beam support at the bottom and around it. If it is a small-volume and heavy-weight item, it may cause local collapse.
If you plan to use it to hold a lively baby, don't be fooled by the kg+ load on the product page, and let the baby step into it. Because there are only X cross bars at the bottom, the load-bearing of a single point and a single bar is absolutely not enough. You need to lay an extra hard backing plate to share the pressure.
B. Board shape
It can be stored in a plate shape: which means that the trolley has a beam structure, and the overall stability is stronger, but the disadvantage is that it takes up more space.
It can be seen that the bottom of the umbrella is different, and there are many beam structure on the side, including beam handles on the top.
If you encounter rough ground and need to carry it by hand, this shape may be more convenient. If you plan to bring a baby, this kind of stability will be better, but it is also necessary to prepare the laying board in advance to share the pressure, and to be safe.



(2) Key points of fabric
In fact, from the comparison table above, it can be clearly seen that all brands have reached an unprecedented agreement. Out of comprehensive consideration of cost and wear resistance, the manufacturers all use Oxford cloth, which is thick and durable, so, The fabric material of the trolley is also similar, basically, it is made of Oxford cloth.
Oxford cloth with a higher D value and T value is more wear-resistant, while cotton cloth has better texture, but is more expensive and less used. Basically, the small strollers produced by regular brands are not too bad in terms of fabric, so more attention should be paid to the dimensions of the length, width, and height of the car.
For example, whether the canopy pole can be put down directly, whether the folding table and chair can be put down, and whether the tent can be plugged in. If you have a lot of luggage, it is best to add an extra luggage net bag to prevent the equipment from being missed during the bumps.
(3) Key points of the wheel
A. Whether it is off-road wheels
Off-road wheels are usually wider than household wheels, and the wheel diameter is larger. Off-road wheels are preferred. If the storage space allows and the budget is sufficient, it is recommended to choose wide-wheel off-road wheels.
Wide wheels are more suitable for muddy grass, snow fields, and beaches after rain. But if it is only used in flat cement road parks, narrow wheels may be more flexible and lightweight.
B. Whether with brake
Not all camps are flat, and some parents will use them to bring their children. Only wheels with brakes are safe. In terms of braking performance, wide wheels are much better than narrow wheels.
Other optional data, such as preferentially selecting tires with bearings within the budget range, will be stronger and more durable, and the thicker the surface rubber layer, the better the shock absorption and silence.
C. Can the wheels be disassembled?
The reason is very simple the wheels that can be disassembled should be more convenient in terms of cleaning.
(4) Multi-purpose key points
The camping wagon can be transformed into a camping dining cart after adding a small table.
3. Look at the crowd
(1) Young people
For young people camping on the outskirts of the city, who like to experience moving camping, they can choose a camper with off-road fatigue and umbrella storage. The equipment is small and light, and the price is relatively low.
(2) Parent-child groups

For parent-child families, in addition to bringing equipment, it is recommended to choose a camping vehicle with brake off-road wheels, all-steel, and plate-shaped storage. Strong enough and stable, the price is relatively high.
