    I have this tent and used it when I had a problem with my larger Coleman. Two observations - 1) in cool weather, it retains heat quite well. The reflective fly kept me nice and warm with no cover ontop of me, but really felt the chill as soon as I got out of the tent in the morning (big difference in temperature!). 2) The blackout fabric is very effective - keeping a light on in the tent does not attract various bugs outside the tent. This tent was a godsend for me when the big tent had a failure, and I bring it always as a backup when I car camp (I usually go for a week).

    Great tent, i used mine this week motorcycle camping and it packs down a bit smaller than in your vid which is a bonus.
    Good quality feel to the material and a roomy feel inside which was good.
    I attached the Quechua Large tarp to it for some living area and yeah very pleased. Will be using it a lot over coming months in UK weather.

    I love this tent, easy and genuinely so brilliant at night, but after two weekends of sitting in the pitch darkness with a headtorch during the light evenings or even in the morning, because it is raining outside, I'm now looking for a new tent. It needs a window for when you don't want it to be dark! If you open the door to get light in you get wet cos of the design so it is useless in UK weather when you might well spend time in your tent during the day. If you are somewhere where rain isn't an issue then this tent is awesome. Been shopping around for a porch extender so I can leave the door open when it rains and get some light but they don't seem to do them. New tent it is...!

      I use the 3person regular dome version I just use in summer keeps so cool inside even during hot days, much better than a normal tent anyway, however yeah I have another with a porch if it’s it’s likely to rain a lot or take a tarp to give extra dry space in front of the door. Definitely a hot weather tent though with the airy mesh inner.

    i just saw an ad for this tent and it peaked my curiosity. i own a pop up tent with the same black out technology and while the heat resisting part has its limit, it does help me sleep in at festivals. just remember to bring a flashlight because its sometimes hard to find stuff even mid day with the door open. the tent i own has been practically flawless at keeping the inside dry as well so i trust the brand in that regard. the thing i find apealing about this tent is the form factor when its folded since the large disc my tent folds into takes up an impractical amount of space.

    it is a good tent, but it is more fragile than a normal one : the two umbrellas inside the fabric must be protected from drops, bangs and pressure, else you end up, pretty much like with an umbrella, with a bent or broken rib, or a jammed mecanism that is difficult to repair.
    oh, and it's heavy. Good for a motorcycle or a car, not so for a bicycle or on foot. this is why I got the trekking version of their black tent.
    that said, Decathlon did a good job at trying something new.

    It's a near perfect motorbike camping tent. could do with more ventilation in the roof though. It has flaps for airflow, but there isn't any meshing directly in the inner roof, would be good if there was a zip or something to open it up for colder weather camping where you don't want to leave the vestibules open.

I find that on my channel I can never predict which video will spike and which ones will just get a few hundred views. I’m betting you feel the same way. This tent video has over 174,000 views as of this comment. It’s a good video but you have many more at least as good. Anyhow……. Keep up the great work! New subscriber here!
