This Affordable Cooler-Sized Box Turns into a Full Camping Kitchen

The Cruiser weighs 43 lbs, so although I wouldn’t classify it as a featherweight, it’s still light enough for a single person to carry, aided by a pair of handles on either side.

Once at the campsite, the box unfolds in less than a minute to showcase a surprising amount of utility. First, unfold the four metal legs from the bottom to get the box off the ground. Next, unfold the sides to create a prep table on the right and a sink station on the left.

Pull up the top to create a shelf that doubles as a windguard for the stove, then open the bottom cabinet to unload the accessories needed to set up your sink and stove. And just like that, you’ve got an entire outdoor kitchen from an impossibly small container.

The Kitchen Cruiser takes just seconds to unfold.

The Cruiser’s stove is a single burner that runs on propane, and there’s a dedicated spot where you can easily clip in a gas can. The sink consists of a detachable basin and a faucet powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery. You just insert the included hose from the base of the faucet into a container full of water and the faucet will pump running water into the basin at the press of a button.

The box’s cabinet isn’t just for storing your sink and stove parts, either. It also has two drawers with organization for utensils, knives and cutting boards (not included), meaning the Cruiser effectively contains everything you need for your camping kitchen.
