I must assume that you expect to be at a site for a long time ? In my 35 years of camping I have never saw the need for one . Then again I never stay for more than two or three days .
That's really my feeling and my comment to the OP; what kind of camping do you do? I've toyed with the idea of buying a slinky but never really saw the need for it. We're not retired yet and go out 3 to 4 days at a time, sometimes a week or two, and we've been doing this for 15 years.
On the other hand, I definitely see the value of the slinky if you full time or camp long term.
