Kelty Camp Galley Deluxe

The Kelty Camp Galley Deluxe is a great addition to our camping gear. It’s a quality bag with a lot of storage space and some great features. It’s made with 600D polyester which is durable and easy to clean, and uses YKK zippers so opening and closing it always feels smooth. The storage area allows for a lot of organization. There are a couple of pockets along the back, allowing you to store some of the more flat items like cutting boards, knife set, plates, etc. There are two side pouches with elastic straps to hold down additional tools or longer items you may have. And the main base of the galley is wide enough to store some of the more bulky items like a pots/pans set. Up top there are three zippered pockets, two of which have a partial mesh area which is helpful for visibility to your items. There are also side pockets on the outside of the bag that can hold something thin. The bag itself can be hung using the straps, either from a roof rack, tree branch, etc. The bottom of the bag has cord that is detachable on one side so that you can hang a roll of paper towels if you wish. It’s a quality bag that I would absolutely recommend.

Bought this for Jeep Camping/Overlanding. Have used Milwaukee Packout drawers which are great, but when also sleeping in Jeep, they take up a lot of space. This has been awesome as I can hang it from the inside or outside of my Jeep. Very portable, but can hold a lot. Gave 4 stars only because some side exterior pockets would have been great.

I finally got a chance to use this in a real world scenario. Here's what I found... The good: This Galley Bag can hold a LOT of stuff. I put a cutting board, set of knives, collapsible collanders, measuring cup set, measuring spoons, pot holders, kitchen towels, a set of silicone cooking utensils (with their round cup organizer), can opener, cooking thermometers, a set of silicone rubber spatulas, and basic spices. Probably a few other things as well. I had almost everything I needed (except the pots and pans) to cook. When you open it up, it hangs nicely giving easy access to all of the contents. I hung it from the top bars of our pop-up canopy. It actually worked well as extra weight to help hold the canopy down when we had some fierce winds. The not quite as good: The opening of the large section has a low threshold - a little too low. I have to use the strap to hold my utensils in place or they will fall right out onto the ground. A little higher and it wouldn't be a problem. Just make sure you use the elastic strap and it should be fine. The bottom of the bag has a string that can be used to hold a roll of paper towels. It's a little awkward to set up, but then it works fine. Just beware of wind. The roll of paper towels moves so freely that wind will unravel your roll and carry it across your campsite faster than a 2-year old with a roll of toilet paper. The material is durable and weathers the elements well. The zippers are sturdy and the pockets are roomy. It's a fantastic choice and the best I've found. Highly recommend.

I cannot say enough good things about this bag. It is literally a game changer. We used to keep all our cooking gear in a tote which 1. Took up a ton of space and 2. Was like a bottomless pit. This fits EVERYTHING and keeps it so organized. I know where everything is at any given moment. It is my favorite camping accessory by far. It fits 4 large plate, 4 bowls, cutting boards, utensils of all shapes and sizes, cups, a plethora of spices, large heat proof gloves, foil, non stick spray, trash bags...I'm talking EVERYTHING! With room to spare! And it saves soooo much space. Sometimes I hang it and sometimes I just lay it on a table. Either way it works perfectly. Could not recommend it enough.

My wife was kind of mad at me the other day. She thinks I spend too much money on camping, she says. So she was upset the other day because I was talking about getting a chuck box. She said, "what do you need a chuck box for? You just bought that Kelty Camp Galley Deluxe! That's got plenty of space in it for anything you could put in a chuck box." And she is pretty right too. This Kelty Galley is really spacious, and have a spot for whatever you need, including the wine you might be serving for dinner. Kelty never disappoints, there is not a product more durable, easy to use, and compact enough to fit just about anyplace.
