Base Camp Outdoor "The Everyman"

This is the best couch for action packed play through to quiet time. I chose the Arki because of all the different shapes pieces, fabric and the Velcro tabs for sturdy builds. It took me ages to compare brands and I wish I had just bought it sooner so the fun could have begun! It was my initial choice before I went down the rabbit hole of researching brands.
We have built cubbies, thrones, tunnels and used as stepping stones for playing lava.
My 3 year old still needs mum to help with the building but it’s early days….she is getting more adventurous with it. After play we always turn it into a cave rather than a couch. She loves to share with her toys and watch her fav tv from inside although usually gets distracted back into play, ditching tv time!

We purchased Basecamp Outdoor in “the Everyman” and use it indoors at the moment, but will take outdoors in the warmer/drier weather. It’s comfortable and does feel like outdoor fabric which is pretty durable for the grubby action it sometime gets.

This couch will not disappoint.

The customer service is also excellent pre and post purchase. I was lucky enough to receive free waterproof liners which thankfully were fitted prior to sending to me.

Bought it as a first birthday present for my son, and my 4 year old can play with it too but honestly i just love using it myself- i have a playroom in the backyard and it’s nice to lay on and read books, nurse and just watch the kids play around or with the couch. It’s super strong and I am quite big but at no stage does the foam compress so that i am on the floor. Used it as a camp when we had a sleep over for kids and they loved it. i like the velcro so that the two big parts don’t slide apart when they were sleeping on it. Spilt kinetic sand and play doh on it and it left no stains and am able to vacuum up the couch a treat.We are still figuring out more creations beyond a house or a washing machine. highly recommend.

Delivery took exceptionally long thanks to aus post. The material was different to what I anticipated but seems very durable still which is what we where after.

It can be challenging to find activities to do together that both kids can enjoy equally with a big age gap between them.

Kids have not stopped creating once it arrived, was an instant hit with both my 1yo and 9yo. They have happily played with it daily.

Thank you Arki tribe for such a great product.

Kids favourite toy that isnt my couch!
Make cars and cubbies, trains and castles. Play horsies or make picnic islands.

Great product, highly recommended the outdoor fabric, especially with younger kids.
Pity the postage is expensive

To say me and the kids are happy is an understatement!! Even hubby who was very hesitant is loving it!! We got it for our 3yo & 1yo for Christmas 2021 and we have already used it so much!! The kids love playing with it, especially when it means climbing and sliding!! Last night it entertained them for over an hour which mean we didn’t have them climbing all over us on the lounge!! Total win!! We have been in isolation the last week too and it’s saved us, especially in the rainy days!! It is also heaps of fun for us adults to build and engage in the imaginative play of our little ones. If you have the room for it, but it!!
