As a first time tent buyer I read all the online reviews and watched the videos of it being effortlessly erected. I was skeptical. Much to my relief I experienced the tent as being designed by someone with common sense and sympathy for dummies. It all went together quite logically and was manageable for a 50+ woman and a small dog on our own. Don't be fooled by the videos though, it takes more than two minutes. Two things I loved most about it are, one, the terrific air flow! With large windows each side, doors on the other sides, ventilation in the ceiling and half circle vents near the floor (all with mosquito netting) you really can feel air movement. As well as this you can use the outside window coverings as awnings to shade the windows (you'd have to buy more poles to hold the awnings up though). Second, is the generous vestibules, (extra bits front and back) that made the tent feel very roomy. The tent passed the Christmas 2022 rain test with flying colours. Thunder, lightening and wind gusts were no threat to the Oztrail, it is so well designed that even with the front awning up no rain came in. My only grumble is that as a 'black out' tent the fly is riddled with pin hole 'stars' which I thought must be a fault in the fabric and mean it might start leaking. When I took it back to the shop I was reassured this was normal, and part of the manufacturing process and that they have had many customers coming back concerned it was a fault. I would have appreciated it if staff had been upfront with me about this when I purchased it in store and saved me an hours round trip to bring it back to the store. For this reason I deduct one star for an otherwise five star tent.

This is the first tent we purchased in NZ. We went camping with a toddler and this was an easy and quick setup. For some reason the middle part of the inner tent is a bit droopy, but we will make our own fix. Loved it and is definitely worth every cent.

Exactly as described. Would have loved if it came with extra ropes to secure it to the tent.

My partner and I had recently upgraded tents to the OZtrail Fast frame 6P and we love it! Great Quality, and easy to put up and pack away! We used it for the first time and the weather was absolutely terrible! This tent handled the rough weather incredibly and exceeded our expectations! Definitely recommend so far!

After hours of research, chose this product - it appears to have extra head room/height throughout compared with the ‘pod’. It’s relatively easy to put up alone (for the first time) - the instructions on the ‘tag’ sewn into the bag - very handy, won’t get lost or ripped due to wear & tear. Heaps of space inside...and did I mention the head room? The only thing that could make it better is a fly...and maybe slightly stronger pegs.
