Camping Tent 2 SECONDS _PIPE_ 3 People - Blue

Great Tent easy to put away even easier to put up .

I was a bit dubious about buying a pop up tent but when I saw it was double skinned I thought I would try it. So quick and easy to put up, which was good as it was pouring with rain. It survived the horrendous rain and wind of Download 2019 and didn’t leak once. Very quick to put away as well with the colour coded clips. Only downsides were that it is a bit awkward to carry with a rucksack and it didn’t have a porch to put my muddy boots in. Can’t complain for the money though.

Done a fair amount of camping in my 67 years but not since buying a VW Stealth camper. Usually take a motorcycle or two with me to club events or rides but as I am currently riding crutches (due to a motorcycling mishap) I am using a Smart Car.

Took a punt on this tent due to the good price and was prepared to be disappointed. Definitely not, I managed to erect it swiftly on my own and used it for 3 nights during which time it rained a couple of times. No leaks or problems of any kind, even in some gusty weather. Taking it down, after watching the videos, was done on my own as well in about 5 minutes.

Overall I'm very impressed at the moment. Obviously it is a large flat package and does not suit hiking or motorcycling but fits in a small car with ease.

I’ve had this tent for a couple of years now and I really like it. I’m a Scout leader and prefer to hammock but some sites there are no suitable trees so I use this tent.
I’ve used it in some very extreme weather conditions with driving rain and gale force winds and it’s never let me down. It has always remained completely dry. In very windy conditions the does flatten a bit to the point it can touch you when sleeping but I’ve never felt it was ever going to rip or break.
It is an absolute doddle to erect, “2 seconds” might be a bit of an exaggeration, 2 minutes would be more accurate. Striking the tent takes a little longer and requires a bit of practice. However after a couple of times it is quite easy. I can get it down and in the bag in about five minutes. There is also an instruction sheet with diagrams stitched to the bag which is good for reference.
I would say the tent is a great size for one or two people, I would think it would be a bit “cosy” for three as you would have nowhere for your kit.
Inside the tent you have an inner which is fully bug proof (even midges). You are not going to be walking around inside but can sit up or kneel. There are a couple of pockets, one on each side that are ideal for phones, keys, coins etc. Also a hook at the back, perfect for hanging a small lamp.
Carrying the tent is probably one of its few negatives as it’s disc shaped, you can’t fit it into a backpack. You need to strap it to the outside of your rucksack making you look like a Ninja Turtle. Not a problem considering it’s other benefits. There is also a pocket in the bag for your pegs which is really handy.
For the cost of this tent I think it is fantastic and outstanding value for money. If I eventually did need to replace it, I might be tempted to go for the XL as it has a small porch ideal for wet boots and would allow you to open the door when raining but the XL is about twice the price and not sure if the benefits are worth the extra cost.
I would confidently recommend this tent.

Used for 4 nights in South Wales in August. Slight rain one night. Dried quickly. Excellent tent, really quick to put up and to take down (I had tried it in the house before I left so I didn’t look a fool trying to take it down on the site). Quite sturdy even though it is a quick pitch style. No hesitation in giving this a good review and have recommended it to others.

This was a great buy. It’s easy to pop up and, once you know how, pretty easy to pack away again.
The only thing I would say is that it would be very tight for 3 people. Admittedly we slept on an air bed but my 9 year old and I slept in it and it was cosy. Not sure what would have happened if my partner had come along too!!
