- Quechua 2 Seconds Pop Up Tent "Fresh & Black" 3 Person Tent Review. These tents can be found at Decathlon.
At the end I’ve also included pack down in real-time to show you how long it normally takes.
Thank you :D fight for 1 hour with it, win battle after watching your video.
Lubos Nedorost haha yes it’s a bit frustrating at first isn’t it! But once you get used to it, it is easy. Hope you enjoy the tent and thanks for watching!
Same story for me :)
Hi, I have the XL version of this tent, for solo use. I must admit, I watched the set up and take down videos a couple of times before I bought it, so I didn't find it too hard. The hardest part for me is when you pull the red strap to make a figure 8. I have to brace it with a foot or it gets away from me. Apart from that, I really like the tent, though.
Nianudd yes it’s pretty easy I think but it’s also my third pop up style tent so I’m kind of used to them. This is still my favourite tent! I’ve used it at least 15 times now.
Thank you for the tutorial! I played/paused many times and finally got the tent in its bag. I was scared to bend it in half thinking something would snap but went for it on the second try and YES!!! it’s neatly packed away until my next camping trip. Again thank you so much. 🙏🏽
Thanks for this very helpful vid! I bought the 3-person model and love it but could not figure out what the back cable thingy was. This is the ONLY video (at least that I've found) that clearly explains about the rear window feature and how to activate it. Well done!
Really useful video, thanks so much!
This fits in most full size truck beds also. Love this tent.
Nice video. Thanks.
Would be so nice if this tent had opening mosquito net lateral windows.
The way it is now, when the lateral windows are opened to improve ventilation, mosquitos and even animals can get inside the sleeping area.🙁🙁🙁
I went on a stag doo last year, and used this tent for the first time. Obviously I failed the following day when I tried to out it away hungover-my previous pop-up tent mastery not preparing me for the straps and wotnot! I'm sad to say I put it in a corner, half strapped up and...forgot about it for 9 months. Just put it away with your help now-thanks!
Wow! Great vídeo. Congratulations!
Good video but why not film the fun part of it popping up?😉
Thanks for the great video. Really helped with the buying choice.
J K thank you!! I enjoyed making it and I still love the tent
Thank you for the video.
Just a correction. There are 5 tie down points, 2 in the front, 2 in the sides and 1 in the back.
The tie down ropes are inside a pocket ,inside the carrying bag, and come from the factory not installed.
With this 5 points attached to the ground, the tent then can stand really strong winds.👍🏻🙂
Thanks for including #packdown in #realtime.
Adelaide Dupont thank you for the feedback!!
Thank you, a very helpful video.
Gillian Mallon thank you!!
Saw these in the sale and really fancied one - but only bought after watching your *excellent* video which reassured me (I'm 65 & arthritic!) that I'd be able to pack it up on my own! However, would just like to point out to your viewers that this tent comes with three unattached guy ropes (two for the front, one for the back) which would make the tent far more stable in strong winds if utilised.... Your bad, Quechua: why aren't these pre-attached?!?
MsGeorgieBrown thanks so much for the comment!
I checked my bag and I didn’t get these ropes. I suspect they may have added these in later models! But you’re right, they should be preattached!!
You’re a lifesaver thanks so much👍🏻
Darren thanks mate! Hope you’re enjoying the tent! It’s a great tent once you get used to packing it up haha
Good instructions to package the tent, thanks. But I've got a few questions / remarks as I've just bought the same (but for 2 persons):
* I'm 170cm (5.7") and my feet and head touch the net inside. Very weird. It seems a tent for children.
* You say the awning prevents dew in the morning. But there is a lot of dew moving inside because the door is too close to the inner net. They both touch each other so there is a moisture transfer. Especially because of my pillow pushing the net towards the door... because I'm too... big. I never felt that big.
* The lateral windows are useless as they aren't made of a mosquito net, but only a very tight fabric not letting the air pass through. So you have the choice to either let it open (and get all the insects) or let it closed (and not getting and fresh air from lateral "windows").
What do you think about those issues? Am I missing something?
I've just used the 3 person version for the first time and also find it very bizarre that there is no bug mesh over the side windows. I've never had a tent where the windows weren't covered! It makes no sense. I live in Queensland, Australia so you definitely want the windows open but need to keep all the mozzies/spiders etc out. I'm not sure why so many reviews don't mention this 😳
@@kimberleybruce39 I came to the conclusion that tent was made for festival lovers. No bug mesh over side windows so that they can easily transfer beers and joints in/ out to their neighbours without opening anything...
@@christianlaville2382 ahh yes of course! I'd still prefer my tent beer bug free though ha! Silly design
Love the tent otherwise, but agree, not having airflow and bug protection at the same time makes the tent worthless for camping in the summer. It should have either the right mesh and a bug screen or a bug screen and a cover or even just a bug screen. I wonder if I can come up with a solution...
I always afriad that u will break it when I flip the figure 8 to 0. Hahaha
Moses GTC haha yeah I was worried at first too but actually it’s fine and hasn’t broken on me after a few years now
Great overview. However missing the most important part: the 2 second deployment.
I have this same tent. It's very easy to deploy. Just unbuckle the straps and throw it. Love the tent!
I think I need to make a video about the tent, packing in, as I see the struggle of this guy packing it.
Omg thank u for this
I'm not sure about buying the one tagged for 2 people or 3, I want to be comfortable when walking with my tent folded... Which one would you recommend?
arkanngell the 3 person tent is only about 5 cms wider when folded up. So it doesn’t take up much more space physically and doesn’t weight that much more so I would probably go the 3 person however to be honest I don’t think pop up style tents are great for long walks. It’s quite cumbersome having a big round disc on your back!
Nice bro
any need for a tent footprint?
thank you sooo much my friend you realy help me
Danke❤
Haha I'm also watching this trying to figure out how to fold it do. I feel like I'm gonna snap it it half.
Nice:)
Did you figure out what the blue things on the side cables suppose to do?
I saw a picture online where they slide it up in front of where you hook the blue clips to the rope. That way the clips don’t slide up because they are held back by the blue things. But I found I didn’t really need to use the.
Are the other quechua pop up tents are better than fresh black in winter or they’re same? Cause i bought one today
Honestly I am not too sure because I have not tried the other pop up tents from Quechua
World, by Wilson-Media how’s this tent with you is it good?
Yes I have 3 tents and this is the one I use the most. No faults with it so far. Used it about 20 times now.
can we unassembly the fabrics out of the frame? in case it gets lot of dirts, so we need to clean it up? thanks!
Chonchon Christian no this is all sewn together so you can’t detach the fabrics.
so in your opinion..its a bit of downside or not?
Chonchon Christian for me it is not a big downside. Because the entire tent is held together in one piece, I simply open the door, lift the tent and flip it upside down. All the dirt falls out that way and I do it each time I pick up the tent. I’ve never gotten it dirty enough that I felt it needed a wash.
But you can detach the sleeping section from the water proof structure .
Is it really waterproof ? The information in the web page shows different information 200 rain forest? I am hesitating about this one or other model with roof 2000 and base 5000 (2 seconds tents)
It is really water proof and stand winds of around 30 mph.
The REI halfdome 2 is not a blackout tent.
What the heck? At 1:55 - 2:02, the person has his back to the camera so we cannot see what it is he is doing, and that's a key part of the pack down! I needed to see what it is he was doing more than I needed to see how FAST the take down could be.
It's gonna blow away in first bit of wind
That has me giggling... elegant design, but awkward AF! Any minute I expect the dang thing to explode into is full form and fly away never to be seen again.
Took a bit longer than three seconds to fold back up
It takes a few seconds to deploy - I had an older model of one of these 10-15 years ago and it was great. Of course it takes longer to fold it back up - still WAY quicker than any other tent I've ever used.
complicated as fuck. cant wait for 2030 to just press a buton
Nice tent until it comes to packing it up, this guy makes it look easy, belive me it's a friggin nightmare
too messy, dislike
Whatever.
REI half Dome 2 is faster and more portable.
Its price is also 3x higher. Do not compare apples and pears.
@Evan Brogan This tent is $199 and the REI Half Dome 2 is $229. Not sure why anyone is afraid of a well established brand with an incredible warranty.
@@Sherlockthegr3at This summer I've bought the Quechua F&B 2 persons for 85 euros. There was a sale, 3 persons was at the same price, I've chosen the smaller one for portability. I went to the beach with it. Very satisfied.
@@christianlaville2382 That's awesome! I'm glad you're happy with your purchase. Always love a great deal 🙌
