Do you have camping furniture such as kitchen cabinet or a table and you have a question about its maintenance or repair?

We give you all the information you need to keep them for a long time!

First use

How do i place my furniture on uneven ground?

If you have hexagonal furniture from the Tepee saga, you can adjust the height of your legs. The hexagonal design of the furniture allows one or two legs to be adjusted to suit all types of terrain. 

The base of the legs can also be rotated to really fit the terrain.

When cooking at the campsite, it can become difficult to keep your gas on when the wind is blowing hard.
There is a solution: set up a windguard! All these steps are explained in the video below.

How much weight can my furniture carry?

Our kitchen furniture can support a maximum load of 50kg.
For the hexagonal furniture of the Tepee saga, each tray can support a maximum load of 20 kg. 

This means that you can set up a real kitchen to enjoy your living room at the campsite!

What to do with wastewater?

To take care of nature and collect waste water, you can place a jerry can on the floor (under the sink for example) to empty your sink. We advise you to use a 10L jerry can (minimum) for ease of use. 

To empty the waste water from the jerry can, you can then use the necessary facilities.

Maintain and repair camping furniture

Caring for your furniture

Washing

There are two ways to wash the fabric of your furniture:

- The fabric on your furniture is not removable. You can use soap and a sponge and rinse with clean water.

- The fabric on your furniture is removable. You can remove the fabric from the furniture (for ease of use, keep the zips open so that the fabric is not stretched too much when you remove it). Before putting the fabric in the washing machine, we advise you to close the zips so that they are not damaged. Everything is ready to be put in the washing machine at 30°C maximum! 

For the trays, a sponge and soap are the best solution. 

Storage

Our camping furniture has been designed for occasional outdoor use when camping, in your garden or in the wilderness. Continuous exposure to UV light for several weeks can damage furniture and tables. These products do not fall into the category of "garden furniture" and are not designed to remain outdoors permanently.

To ensure that your furniture lasts as long as possible, it is important to store it when it is not in use. Keep it clean and dry and do not put any weight on it when it is stored. It is best to store your furniture in its storage bag. 

In case of rain, don't hesitate to use the rain cover supplied with the furniture.

Repairing your furniture

Replacing platforms

Several spare parts are available to extend the life of your furniture. 
Simply replace them!

Repairing the fabric

Do you have a tear in the fabric of your furniture? Did the fabric tear?

To repair it, we advise you to use a patch or an adhesive to fill the hole. It is best to apply it to the inner part of the fabric for optimal adhesion.

Giving a second life to your camping furniture

Do you no longer use your camping table or kitchen furniture? And you don't know what to do with it?
Instead of throwing it away, don't hesitate to resell it second-hand using the Decathlon Second-hand platform!
