Highlander 4 shelf Wardrobe. A brilliant addition to our pitch.

One of the major problems we have when camping is living out of bags. Its a nightmare trying to find your clean creased clothes in a morning, and you can always guarantee your stuff is buried at the bottom of the bag under everybody else's clothes.
That's what got me looking at the different wardrobes available. The one I finally settled on was 4 shelf wardrobe from Highlander, expect to pay around £35.

It sits in the corner of our tent very nicely and actually takes up less room that a couple of bags chucked about the place. The top is also good for putting games and things you want to place out of harms way. Once all the clothes are out of the tote bags and placed on the shelf's, we can see instantly what we came without and it saves time trying to find what we never packed in the first place. Seriously though, our youngest only packed one fleece on the last trip, because we realised this, we knew she had to make do with the same fleece all weekend and took extra precautions to keep her from getting it wet.

it's easily assembled and is quite robust. Included is a piece of hardboard for each shelf to give extra strength and there is a different pattern on each side, one is kitchen themed as they also make great larders.
It packs down very copact and fits into the supplied robust bag easily.

The front has two zip mesh doors, accessing two of the shelfs from each door, however we just role ours back and leave them open.
Open size is Length 58cm Width 47cm & Height 140cm
Bagged size Length 71cm Width 46cm & Height 10cm
(Robust carry bag is included)

If I had to pick fault with it, and I really don't want to as it more than meets expectations, but I would say its a shame there's no side pockets like on some of the more expensive models.

A good buy and really useful edition to our pitch.
