Zips won't last
"Great tent but I had two zips break within 3 months of the 3 year warranty ending."
Only tent to not leak @ Rhythm & Vines
"Brought the tent for Son for Christmas and feedback was after the heavy rain it was the only tent of his group that didn’t leak."
Spacious
"This tent is relatively light and compact (not for cycling or tramping but for loading into the car) and is spacious enough to accommodate one or two people. With one person, there's plenty of room inside for a chair, small table and your luggage as well."
Needs two to tango
"This is a well designed tent and we use it for two. Three would be very friendly. . . . The Kathmandu video shows two people erecting the tent and it does need two to fit the red T-shaped struts in place unless some special ingenuity is applied. Ten minutes for erection is reasonable with a bit of practised teamwork. It was 'on sale' and excellent value for our use as a car-camping overnighter."
Perfect size
"Great tent for two or a small whānau. Weather tight, even in Wellington’s windy nights. Easy to set up and pull down. Surprisingly compact and light. Definitely recommend."
Great wee tent
"Our kids used this at a music festival and it was easy for them to set up and pack down."
Retreat 80

UVE 95%+
- This woven shade fabric provides 95%+ UV protection according to AS 4174.When shade fabric is used for purposes such as shade structures for human protection, the ultraviolet effectiveness (UVE) may not be an accurate guide to the protection provided and may be less than the measured value due to factors including variations in design, height and size of shade structures, stretching of the fabric, the distance of the fabric from the persons, the direction of sunlight, and the physical location of the persons within the shade structures (e.g. at the edge or at the centre.)
