Coleman QuickPack Deluxe+ Gas Lantern, $28 (was $55)
Why We Love This Deal
Lanterns aren't just for camping—power outages tend to show up without much warning, and when they do, most people reach for a light source that dies faster than they'd like. That's why classic gas camping lanterns are still around, and often preferred during long outages and/or freezing temperatures. Most users trust Coleman for their lanterns. The brand still makes its gas lamps the old-fashioned way, and you can get one of its brightest for nearly half off right now.
The $55 Coleman QuickPack Deluxe+ Gas Lantern is now just $28 at Amazon. This 1,000-lumen lamp is currently the No. 1 bestselling gas lantern on Amazon —it's actually the most affordable of three Coleman models that claim the top 5—and over 500 have been bought in the last month as campers gear up to hit the site and others in various parts of the country prep for brutal summer conditions.

What Shoppers Should Know
-
Light:1000 lumens, two-mantle propane burn, InstaStart push-button ignition
-
Power Source:16.4-oz. Propane cylinder (sold separately)
-
Burn Time:Up to 7.5 hours on high, 13.5 hours on low
-
Best For:Power outages, off-grid camping, cold-weather use where batteries lose charge
Propane lanterns like this are especially useful in situations where you don't have access to an outlet, and in cold weather when batteries drain quickly. This particular lantern runs on propane, with InstaStart ignition that lights it without matches or a lighter, and a dial that adjusts brightness from a soft glow up to the full 1,000 lumens. The two-tier ventilator is porcelain-coated to resist rust, and the carry case doubles as the lantern's base, making setup and takedown easy.
Compared to Coleman's standard Deluxe Propane Lantern (also rated at 1,000 lumens with a similar runtime), the Deluxe+ version is more affordable on sale and includes the InstaStart feature. That makes it a more convenient pick for anyone who wants to deal with fewer steps and supplies, but the OG is still a solid choice for a kit where matches or a lighter are already part of the setup.

What Shoppers Are Saying
One helpful shopper wrote, "It's incredibly bright and lights up the whole campsite with ease." This same reviewer also said, "The build is sturdy, and it has that classic old-school lantern feel, but with a modern twist."
Coleman's quality is always top-notch: "One of the best functioning lanterns out there, in my opinion." Although there's a bit of prep and learning required, the lantern is "easy to assemble and use," according to many.
If you want a classic light source backed by heritage design, Coleman's QuickPack Deluxe Gas Lantern is well worth the $28. Since this deal could end at any moment, now's the time to grab one.
