Night Cat Pop-up Camping Tent: 1 Person Tent Waterproof Instant Easy Setup Outdoor TentGlobal Recycled StandardGlobal Recycled StandardGlobal Recycled Standard

So far I'm very satisfied with my decision to purchase this tent. It's extremely easy to set up and to pack back up, especially compared to other brands of similar style tents. I'm also impressed with the attention to details of the features of this tent, especially for this price range. I'm still waiting to see how the tent will perform in rain. I will update the review with that information.*Rain Update*We had a slow moving front come through my area last night and I was able to see how this tent performed in the rain. While not a strong thunderstorm, it did rain pretty good and for a large portion of the night. Overall I was very happy with the result. PLEASE NOTE: I purchased this tent to have something quick, easy, and compact to setup and take down for an overnight sleep. As such, I don't bother to make use of the stakes. By not using the stakes the tent wasn't as taught as it should be, which caused some areas of the tent to sag and allowed some water to collect. When I awoke I noticed a couple of drops permeating through in these areas. I'm sure that if the tent were fully taught and staked this wouldn't have happened. I woke up to my self and belongings being dry and I'm still a happy camper.Please see my notes regarding rain and waterproofing below...Speaking of rain... I've seen some reviews criticizing leaks and wanted to share some information. The very first thing you should do with a brand new tent, regardless of brand, price, and claims of "waterproof" is apply a waterproofing product. These usually come in the form of sprays. From what I've read in the description is this tent's waterproofing is based on the fabric rating. You should always apply a water repelling product to a new tent - think of it as "rain-x" for your tent. Also, nothing should touch the sides of a tent as this will make water come through regardless of waterproofing. A tarp should be used for the bottom and should never stick out beyond the edge as it will give an avenue for moisture to collect between the tarp and floor of the tent. Tuck any excess tarp under the edge of the tent and under the tarp itself.

Does the job. I don't use it to sleep but to temporarily store stuff while outdoors. Tricky to fold but once you get it it is very easy.

This tent is a good 1-man tent. Enough space for 1 person sleeping plus backpack/gear next to you in the tent, as long as you're not claustrophobic (I had a 70L frameless backpack with me in mine). This is basically a sleeping tent. Not a tent you can stand up in, or one you would want to spend a lot of time in otherwise. Crouching down or crawling around on hands and knees is all you get. Probably best suited for overnight thru-hiking on trail.Pros:1. Small footprint, light-weight, with easy-carry handles, and backpack strap option. The shape of the tent makes for good wind resistance during high wind conditions (speaking from experience).2. Set up is quick and easy. Less than 20 seconds (without setting the guy lines). The longest part is getting it out of the bag or staking, tying, and adjusting the guy lines, but even that doesn't take long. Tear down is quick and easy as well. I was able to tear down (guy lines included) and be ready to move in under 10 minutes without rushing.3. Zip-cover for entrance doubles as a canopy for shade (in good weather) when used with hiking poles.4. Waterproof tent, extreme weather circumstances excluded (see Cons for more info on this). Well-stitched seams, with durable material.Cons:1. No Rainfly. This is a waterproof tent, as long as you aren't in heavy/sustained rains. During extreme conditions, moisture may soak through. Speaking from experience here (remnants of Hurricane Helene September 2024 in Northern KY/Southern OH, with 20+ hours of rain). If there were some type of rainfly over the tent, I think it would have held up just fine. It didn't leak, it just became overly saturated due to the amount of rainfall I experienced.2. 3-way ventilation. There is the main entrance, and two small side zippered mesh windows only. No top mesh ventilation. If the "wall" opposite of the main entrance had an additional zippered mesh window or opening, it would maximize ventilation potential since there is no top mesh for "waterproof" purposes. However, I believe Night Cat offers 4-way ventilation in the 2-person version of this tent.Overall:I feel like this tent lives up to descriptions, again, extreme weather conditions excluded, but that probably goes for any tent. Ease of set up and tear down are a plus if you're thru-hiking and just need cover for a quick sleep, or just want something simple for overnighting somewhere on your own.

Bought for Sea to Sea endurance race. Just fit in the race bin flat on top (tight but lid goes on- will fit at angle easily). Opens in seconds! Easy to stake (will need to stake it as it is super light). Closed in under a minute- BUT you practice closely it back BEFORE your out using it- It’s not hard to close but there is one way to do it. I would definitely recommend this for Warrior Race events!

It fits on my truck bed. Easy to set up and pack up

Ease of setup:About 45 secsEase of folding:Took about 3mins to figure out and fold back up.My son (about to be 14) wanted his own tent and camping stuff for when we went out. So I figured this would be perfect. When I got it I put it up and left it up for a bit to make sure everything was good. The quality seems good so far. The ease of putting it up and taking down is simple and fast. Its lightweight and compact great for backpacking. I can fit it in a tote with his xxl sleeping bag chair, lights, etc so everything is ready to go.The only reason it gets a 4 stars is the shipping. Not because USPS was slow at shipping it (got it in 3 days.) The company it comes from took about a month to ship it out. So be warned if.yoi buy this item to.order it way in advance or you may not get it in time.
