I have one of these and it rides in the same spot in my truck. Super happy with it. I removed the bags and replaced with open top plastic baskets that fit perfect. That way I can pull them out like a drawer and not have to unzip every time to get to my stuff. I store my paper towels in the same spot too. I love the idea of storing the stove on top with bungees!
I ordered one before the video was over. I'm been using a heavy duty tote with dividers that gets the job done, but it's like playing jenga every time I went in for something. There are a bunch of solutions but most are ridiculously priced. Thanks for the video.
Ok my friend, I don’t know your history but I am an absolute new subscriber. Glad to have stumbled upon your page. You have great skill in instructional videos. I’m on TH-cam all the time and don’t need another subscribed site. But your videos are some of the most well put together succinct -correct -helpful that I’ve come upon. Keep up the good work. Live every day.👮♀️🇺🇸. I have a 2016 Tacoma luckily with a 6 1/2 foot bed and long wheelbase. Great for truck camping. I’m fixing to watch the CampChef video!
Thank you! That is incredibly kind of you to say. I have a lot of fun making the videos so I'm glad they are helpful! Your Tacoma sounds perfect for truck camping! Have you got it setup for camping?
I have been thinking about purchasing this to organize my camping gear. I car camp and had been using collapsible crates that I have found cumbersome. This does look to do a better job especially if I begin primitive camping wh err e I will need storage and a table top. You are so right about having to open your storage units from the top. Thanks for the video.
It's definitely nice to have an all it one setup with the cook surface! If it's not too bulky in your car then I definitely recommend it 👍🏼 I hope the video helped, cheers!
That table will be super helpful to me. I'm gonna get one because settling up camp takes a lot of time but breaking down camp does too so if I can keep it packed and squared away and accessible at the same time, that just makes sense.
I can attest to the durability. I bought one back in 2015 and it's still serving me well. So well I bought another one in 2018. Carries all my stuff. Never had a problem with the original one.
I've been eyeing that camp kitchen for a while now, but unfortunately just don't have the space for it (I'm a literal car camper), so I'm living vicariously through your video. 😅 You could use a bungee cord through a small length of PVC pipe (or not, but it may be easier to roll it with) and fix your paper towel roll to the other side of the unit when you're actively using it. Alternatively, a dowel and 550 cord. PVC/550 cord. Dowel/bungee. Boot lace, no pipe/rod. Loose pajama drawstring. Whatever works. Thanks for the walkthrough, it was very cool and informative.
@@TregsTravels I'm using my daily driver, a 2013 Hyundai Elantra GT hatchback, to camp. Can't really do any overlanding in it (though I probably do take it places it ought not go, poor suspension and low profile tires bedamned, lol), and it's a bit of a squeeze, but it's been a fun challenge trying to get it to work, and it does. Mostly. 😅
I bought one from watching this. I am really happy with it. Most camp table kitchens collapse and that’s ok. Not needing to unload it to do so is a positive for me.. square volume is square volume The stuff you unload still needs to go somewhere regardless. There is a cheaper version not by camp chef I guess who’s knocking off who? For 65.00$ the legs come out and not collapse . Some fabric is a little lighter. I got one of each ,,,we’ll see in time if they last as long as each other. Under the fabric at each leg is a plastic fitting I’ll cal it triangle. It makes a great place to place a piece of wood to support weight if your bags get heavy and start to sag the fabric. I also took out two bags and put in plastic Walmart sterilite storage drawers. Utensils knives cups etc. things used continuously. Quick access and less constant zipper . Thanks for turning me on to this with the video. I’m glad I didn’t build a drawer system
Thank you for the feedback! That's cool you bought one of each, I'm interested to hear how the longevity compares. That's also a great idea to use the sterilite drawers. Thank you so much for sharing!!
I’m in the process of setting up a Softopper camper setup for when I go kayak fishing. I really like your setup. I’m going to order the Sherpa kitchen. I’m going to use my Coleman Grill Stove so I can grill steaks or burgers and cook in a pot or pan. Thanks for the video.
That sounds like a solid setup! I have really loved camping in mine. The Sherpa kitchen organizer is one of my favorite parts of the camper. I hope you like it!
I have the Portal version of this. Suggestion, pull the legs out a few inches and either wrap them with duct tape or PVC pipe. Otherwise, the legs sometimes go up in the plastic piece. Tool bag I put in the zippered compartment in the back and a big cutting board under the table. Paper towels on a bungee cord.
Sweet, been looking for something like this, thanks for making the video. Wanted a modular, lightweight setup for a truck camper that could be extended up to waist height when needed. A little short but looks like it'll do.
That's incredibly kind of you to say, thank you!! Those kodiak tents are so nice! Alaska is on my bucket list, my dad went when I was a little guy and brought back so much salmon and halibut...I've dreamed about it ever since. Hopefully I can plan a trip in the next few years!
Awesome! You probably already do but just a reminder to check Craigslist and Facebook marketplace for one before buying! I've seen a few of these pop up in my area
I wound up with 2 due to shipping issues with Glamping World during the plandemic. One is my camp kitchen and the second one is still in the box. I like how you kept the top on and stored the stove on the top. I have mine in the Sherpa. I use the waterproof one as a drink cooler. The other 3 bags fit inside the Sherpa. I can’t remember how I got them in there. The second I will use as my art studio and clothing/bathing storage. I just bought a truck so I can store it all in the bed under the cover, along with my tent. Should clear up a bit of room in the garage. I don’t have a topper yet. I Iike having a camp kitchen set up so when you want to go out you only need to get the food.

I've thought about something like that too...I haven't figured out exactly how to do that, it would have to attach to the aluminum on the sides...I'll keep thinking 👍🏼 or maybe a portable tripod that you could extend and stand beside it 🤷🏼♂️ clipping my utensils bag to the side has worked well for me! I just have to bend over to open it
@@TregsTravels how about like a clamp on mount. like those tablet phone holders or some kind? one on each side. and you can put a like a mini curtain extenstion rod of those hotdog sticks. I will let you know how I will come up with my camp kitchen. I would also like yo try adding like a small folding extension table. or a diy sink. where you can place it up and you can use the sink to wash food. I dont think it wouldnt hurt much to add extra ppouch bag to the side tables.

Great question! I haven't had it in the rain yet but it is made out of 600 denier fabric so I believe it's classified as water and mildew resistant. You got me curious so I just poured water on mine and it just ran right off it 😂 it didn't absorb into the fabric at all 👍🏼
Question: I have a camp chef stove and the table top on my Sherpa is not quite wide enough for the stove and the propane bottle. How do you support the propane bottle on the side?
Mines a Coleman stove and if I scoot it all the way to the side then the propane bottle fits on the table top too...If you look at the thumbnail for the video you can see what it looks like with both the stove and the propane bottle both on the table top
