Storage/Utility Tent

[Gavinsky23]

I bought one of these vango pop ups a few months ago. Can’t stand up in it but is well made and pops up in seconds. Does the job well for us with car seats and pram etc when we don’t take the awning.

good price too…Deal of the day for Prime Members: Vango Unisex Waterproof Dart Outdoor Dome Tent https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00R4X9ZP2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_QC4D1MWM1T1X06XSSRDT

Cheers all.

Was looking at the decathlon one earlier and the vango one above looks good but possibly a little too big of a footprint.

Looking at these two as well;



The regatta being the cheapest I've found so far (in amazon sale too).

I picked one of these up from Go Outdoors. Only £69 and surprisingly wind proof. It is about 3m diameter and 2m tall, just using it to store stuff while taking the van out for the day

I started this thread and eventually concluded that I would be better off just using a tent that I already owned BUT we were in a Decathlon store a while ago and one of these pop up tents caught my eye (and which somebody else here on T6F had also recommended): 2 seconds EASY 2 Tent - 2 people.

So far we have only put it up in the garden but it's really easy to put up and take down again once you get the knack (see video in the link - it really is that simple!). It's supposedly waterproof to 2000hh which should be enough and hopefully it will do the job. As a keen camper with for a lot of years experience, I'm very fussy about my tents and don't think I would want to sleep in it in a storm but as a storage / utility tent it should be OK, particularly as most of the stuff kept in it will be in plastic boxes anyway. Each to their own, but i'm also glad it doesn't look like a fabric turd tardis.
