Single Portable Mosquito Net Tent, Pop UP Mosquito Tent for Camping Outdoor Travling Backyard, Self Standing Auto- Expanding

Initially, I was looking for a mosquito net that did not require tools to setup or stay up for when I stay overnight at my parents' place. This pop-up tent was the solution. It offers a self-enclosed structure for the mesh/anti-mosquito fabric without requiring any rope, string, or tools to setup. it's long enough for me (6' ft tall). And it has both a mesh fabric side for when you want to look around and a solid side when you want to block out the sun or street lamp.Setup is easy because it's one entire piece that pops open. No need for poles, straps, or anything else. For indoor use, it stays up on it's own. For outdoor use, they included stakes so it stays in place when there is wind. Folding it away is easy after some practice (it's like folding the car sunscreen that you put in the windshield). But make sure the velcro that encloses the center arch is closed properly before you fold it up. Other than that, it's working better than I expected. I might see if I can try it on the beach where I can read under the shaded side but still enjoy the view on the mesh side. Lightweight and small enough to transport in my 2-door car.

It's basic to open or fold.Less than twenty seconds.Pros: base is a tarp so it can lay on damp ground.The netting is strong and stitching is excellent.Cons:The zipper is the weak point.The zipper of the cover bit it first.I didn't care because I didn't rely on covering it after every use because it has a sturdy flex strap that buckles it shut.Then the zipper of the tent lost a knob.Luckily it has two zippers but it's just a matter of time before the zipper goes.Not tent ending failures overall, but after three seasons, it will be time to retire it.

I hope to use this on the AT for nights I spend sleeping in shelters, to avoid mice and bugs running on me and my stuff. This is perfect for this purpose and keeps the mesh off my body as I sleep. It is also not so big as to be obnoxious when sharing space with others. It is a bit cumbersome to carry due to the large diameter of the packed tent, but I think its usefulness outweighs this inconvenience!

Ok, the bug netting works. It folds easily enough if you’re used to the style. If you don’t have exactly the space needed the shape is going to be odd as it will kind of refold or collapse a bit, so you may have to prioritize an end. Odder still is the design that has you either being rather flexible and zipping the thing up with you toes or contorting to flip around after zipping… unless you’re supposed to have your head under the solid part. Which, great for early mornings that come too early but leaves me a bit baffled about why my feet want the wakeup. The zipper has already decided to come off the track on one side if I unzip it fully, and the seams are not happy with repeated use. Short answer? If you’re going to use it a few times a year? Great, go for it. Plan to use it for weeks at a time? Keep looking.

Received the mosquito net, and the fabric seems durable. It zips open and closed easily and is large enough for an adult. Once you learn how to fold it, folding is very easy. I have a couple of pop-ups that don't have a strap, which makes it difficult to stuff them back in the storage bag. This has a strap and clasp, which makes the process much easier!

It was too smart for me other than that the size, weight, set-up, everything was great and fast

This small netting tent is excellent! It protects a single user from all types of bugs. It is sturdy and is easy to open and use.Remember that this tent has no rainfly. It has netting as part of its roof. It is designed strictly for protection from insects. It does that job well.

The only thing I don't like about this product is that you can't sit up inside it. I got claustrophobic. It worked great for falling asleep while stargazing on a cool night in the mountains. The chihuahua slept by my feet. It's a bit awkward to turn around in if you're not teeny tiny.
