Adventure Kings Rooftop Tent review of Performance

Any tent expert will tell you that a canvas tent is better than a plastic one, it helps in keeping water out during rain storms, and it will allow the moisture to get out of the tent which will make it relatively cold in the summer, and not so cold in the winter.

Be sure to open all 4 side if you are summer camping, this will provide a better ventilation and then cover the windows with mesh to protect against mosquitos and the various insects in the area.

but we should not that the zippers of this tent are not strong enough if you are planning to camp a lot with it, and by camping a lot I mean camping way more that what the average person spend.

Setup difficulty (assembly time)

The setup of the Adventure Kings Weekender rooftop tent is easy if you are an experienced camper, but if you are still in the beginning of your camping journey.

it is better if you try to set up this tent a number of times before going on a trip, this way you will be 100% sure that you won’t have any complication or time wasted that will ruin your camping experience, the average setup time is 20 minutes.

This tent weight is nearly 70 KG, installing it will require multiple persons (at least two) to lift it and doing the initial installation on the roof rack.

The installation itself is easy, the supplied parts are easy to use, the installation process will not take more than 30 minutes.

You should be very careful with the zippers and straps, We noticed that they are not that strong in comparison to other tents, so be careful.

Weatherproofing

This tent is made out of canvas, which means that it will be excellent in rainy days, the momentum of the rain drops will prevent them from leaking inside the tent, and even after the outer canvas layer is gotten wet, it will swell and make it even harder for water to get inside.

The canvas used in this tent is the “320 GSM Poly Cotton Ripstop canvas”, this canvas has a great cost to value proposition which a lot of other canvas brands lack nowadays.
