Coghlan's has been making practical camping accessories since 1959 — the small, unglamorous items that make camp life significantly easier. Tent pegs, camp stove toasters, salt and pepper shakers, knives, bungee cords, fire starters. Individual items are affordable; together they fill out a camp kit with reliable, proven gear.
At Dwights, Coghlan's accessories are the practical additions to any camping or tramping kit — the kind of items you don't think about until you need them and don't have them.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Coghlan's products are most useful for NZ camping?
The most practical Coghlan's picks for NZ camping: the camp stove toaster (makes bread and tortillas on any burner — genuinely useful), the salt and pepper shakers (small, lightweight, purpose-built for camp cooking), carabiners and bungee cords for gear organisation at camp, and the camper's knife for general utility. Coghlan's tent pegs are a useful supplement to standard kit — extra pegs are worth carrying on any NZ camping trip where exposed coastal or alpine sites demand more anchor points.
Is Coghlan's gear good quality?
Coghlan's is practical and reliable rather than premium. Their products are designed to do a simple job well at an affordable price — and for most camping accessories, that's exactly what you need. A camp stove toaster doesn't need to be engineered to a high standard; it just needs to work over a burner without warping. For that kind of functional camping accessory, Coghlan's is consistently solid.
