    I have the same tent except in orange I had it out for several outings last spring and over the summer I absolutely love the setup and breakdown of the tent I’m an old guy with mobility issues and I can set it up and take it down myself

    Just were given one for Christmas by our children. Can’t wait to use it. We set it up in our yard in two minutes time.

    Thanks for the review. I've been lookin' at this tent for nearly 3 years now, so it was not an impulse by when I finally pulled the trigger the other day and bought it. Look forward to using it in a few weeks, Lord willin'.

    If you have your setup in a sealed truck bed, SUV, or trailer it’s super fast to leave it outside of the bag and leave the sleeping pad/bags/etc partially full. Pop it up, throw bedding in, done. Cheers.

    What about cooler weather - in my experience I have always had to add a tarp over the rain fly in open vented roof tents to block out the cold.

    • @TheOutdoorGeneralist
      @TheOutdoorGeneralist  Před 2 lety +1

      We’ve been comfortable down to about 28F with two people on a fairly calm night. The fly fits fairy close to the top vents. But a tarp may be good to have if it’s windy or colder!

    Thanks for the nice review. Not crazy about the limited way of entering/exiting on this tent but I'm sure its due to the design features it does have. Meanwhile, do you know of another quick pop up type tent like this that competes with this tent? Thank you

    One review I saw said that the velcro left gaps on the corners where spiders and bugs could get in. That's been the only thing holding me back from purchasing. Your thoughts?

    • @TheOutdoorGeneralist
      @TheOutdoorGeneralist  Před 2 lety +1

      I’d say that there are probably a few small gaps, but not a big deal at all. It’ll depend on how evenly you get the Velcro secured around the edges.

    • @rdiggsrn
      @rdiggsrn Před 2 lety

      This has been the only thing holding me back too, it’s a no go for me if bugs can get in.
      I’ve also heart a reviewer say if you take the Velcro bottom off you will never be able to get it back right.
      I’m hoping if I never take it apart, the bugs won’t be an issue.
      But a few reviews say, that it gaps in each corner and bugs got in.
      That’s what’s holding me back.
      Also, some videos of water leaks inside around the hubs… anyone experience that?

    How does the rain fly hold up in wind?

    • @TheOutdoorGeneralist
      @TheOutdoorGeneralist  Před rokem

      Really well! Definitely need the guy lines for tent walls in the wind, but the way the fly anchors to the tent, it stays in place very well. I’ve never had rain get in during a storm, and I’ve spent a considerable about of time in it in rainy, windy conditions.

    Can the rain fly stay on all the time?

    • @TheOutdoorGeneralist
      @TheOutdoorGeneralist  Před rokem +1

      The way it’s designed, it has to come off when taking down the tent. Otherwise, it can stay on when the tent is up.

      More comfortable than the cheap thin ones, maybe not more than a better quality air mattress. But way more portable!
