Manufacturers don't appear to take storing kit into account when labelling tents, so you might find yourself short on space. As long as the sky is clear you might do great with such a tent. The four windows with mesh should give enough air circulation. But when it is raining, you have to keep everything closed. In such circumstances, you would want to have floor vents and also roof vents. Both are missing here. Tents are sized according to the number of adults they can feasibly sleep (two-, four-, six-person and so on), but unless you’re looking for an ultralight adventure tent for one person, the rule of thumb is that if you halve the stated person number, you’ll get the number of adults the tent will actually sleep comfortably. A four-person tent will give two adults plenty of extra space for bags without being squashed but, if you’re camping with kids, a six-person tent (with separate bedrooms) is ideal. So there is nothing really “hydraulic” here, but the setup is indeed fast and easy, so I have included it in my list of best instant camping tents.

To pitch, you simply pull on two chords that clip and bend the poles into position. With the flysheet, bedroom and groundsheet already fitted, you’re ready to go in 30 seconds, if that. Once pitched, you can move it into position and peg out.

Regarding the price, this is a very affordable tent, a good value for the money. It is rare to have aluminum in such budget tents. Specifications A handy rule of thumb is to subtract one person (or two people if you have a lot of stuff) from the number listed. This means if there are two of you (for example) you'd probably be best suited to a three-person tent. 2) Look for air vents and consider their size and quality I already mentioned the issue of ventilation. The tent is best suited for warm weather camping without rain. It is tall and boxy so I would avoid windy places. You can also use it as a utility tent next to your family camping tent, so here you can store some of your gear.

And because the inner bedroom pod is already attached to the flysheet, once you’ve clipped the poles into each of the corners you just clip the flysheet to the poles and you’re done. This also means you can’t get the inner fabric wet if pitching in a storm. It took us less than four minutes to pitch. Be warned, though, that you’ll need to be at least five-feet eight inches (172cm) tall and have a relatively strong grip to lift and clip the tent together. The outer fabric is made from silicone coated ripstop that will survive any weather and there are two doors with mosquito net protection, so you can avoid clambering over people in the night.They have added an extra pole that creates a small awning above one of the doors, so you can keep one of the windows partly open probably most of the time. Materials The poles: You have an interesting combination of aluminum and fiberglass used for the frame. This means the tent is with 4 aluminum legs poles that continue to the roof with fiberglass extensions. There is one short fiberglass pole (shown below) that supports the awning. Awning pole, 8 stakes, and guylines.
