This tent really does go up in a minute. I bought the tent on this reason alone. I’ve spent to many times arriving at a camp site at dusk and fighting against the light, trying to remember where I put the pegs and hoping I don’t have the tent inside out. Sound familiar?
The tent is water proof, light weight and is very easy to carry in a small bag with handles that don’t cut into your hands – another common failing with tents. This is most handy for those long trips from the festival car park to the camping area.
The only problem I have found is that it’s a little hot in the morning. The ventilation is in the roof but doesn’t seem to ventilate enough to clear a hangover at a festival but then again, what does?
The tent comes with a patch kit and seam sealant. These are small enough to carry in the bag so if you have any unforeseen rips, you’re covered.
As for size, its spacious for one and but a taller friend of mine (6 feet 2+) found it a little cramped for two. Saying that, he’s getting one himself now so it cant have been all that bad.
One more important thing for camping at festivals is security. The front opening isn’t evident and would be hard to find if you didn’t know where it was in the dark. Also there are two internal zips which make access harder and anyone wanting to steal from your tent can’t see who is in the tent on opening the front zip. All this means that anyone stealing from tents, as so often happens at festivals, is more likely to move onto the next tent. I still never leave anything I can’t afford to loose in my tent.
This tent is lightweight, waterproof and very easy to put up. These are all the qualities I need from a tent so its one less thing to worry about when camping.
