[@mikekay213]

Great video, wish you included ikamper, maybe your thoughts?

[@GF-gw6op]

Do you know which of the hardshell tents have the most space for bedding when folded in?

[@gaetanypreeuw1378]

Thanks mate, great video you got here! When is the one for 2023? :))

[@supatotenkopf88]

Great review dude

[@chrisocallaghan9193]

Which one can keep the red dust out in australian outback the best

[@Ian-le3bu]

Hi, have you had any feedback on the drifta wild land rooftop tents?

[@njfilmpro-nickbrown4009]

The best Hard shell roof top tent is the bush company alpha tent by far. Double canvas, huge opening, two people easily, massive rain fly. Can’t beat it

[@anthonydagostino6618]

For 5k it'd want to be

[@anthonydagostino6618]

@Tony F 100% mate. I'm not struggling financially but I just can't see how it can't be such an improvement over say a 2k one. Each to their own though.

[@krump743]

The bush company tent is dam near 100kgs... fk that for a joke.

[@jacktag9160]

dude these are the best videos, i watched the swag one. need these for every bit of equipment hahahaha

[@OutdoorExplorer]

Yeah I'd like to make more if I get the time!

[@jacktag9160]

@@OutdoorExplorer rate the full breakdown and stats comparison bro, really different from the subjective personal anecdotes from most of the other people reviewing camping stuff! keep it up hey

[@shonkytonky]

You've missed a lot of tents. Alu cab, Camp King etc.

Not a bad video but you forgot to mention a few things. I had a ARB Simpson, did not like it at all. The set up time takes forever and the packing down even longer. Had to sit on the tent to be able to close the zip. When I was finished packing it down I had to take a shower covered in sweat. Drove to Cape York, the dust came through the zipper and the tent was covered in red dust. I suggest to wait, safe the money and buy a top quality rooftop tent. I sold mine and bought the bush company’s new alpha one. Very expensive but don’t regret it at all. In my opinion the best on the market today available.

Hi Michael, good to get some more real world feedback on the ARB Simpson - thanks for sharing!

Great video and review. But can you enlighten me on why the ability to store your bedding in your tent when it's closed up, is not a major review point. Have a smaller 4wd is the main thing I'm looking for, to save space. I've read a lot of reviews by I'm looking to upgrade my rooftop setup. I see that a lot of people in the comments are asking the same. Is bedding able to stay in once closed.

[@putnamehereholdmadoodle]

I would say so. Just might get moist

[@geraldpm1949]

what is the installation cost assuming it is extra?

[@barrymurphy3554]

Good information there Appreciate your time thanks heaps

[@JP-yp6gd]

Do you know which rooftop tent would fit a F56 mini 3 door hardshell?

[@putnamehereholdmadoodle]

Not sure they look to small to fit me my two kids and the dog in them? Might have to stick with a tent.

[@marklovell2664]

Great video - most helpful information source I've found on this topic!

[@OutdoorExplorer]

Thanks Mark, I really appreciate the feedback!

[@Nitai_one_leg_travel]

How do I know there I got the mk2 Hard shell king quickie?

[@niinja79]

Thanks for information, mate!

[@OutdoorExplorer]

You're welcome!

[@ingdanielluna]

Hey man! Good info! Good info man, thank you! I am looking at the 23zero Stealth. As I see it, it is the same as the Dakota 1400, but it packs better, with only 20cm height (not including the ladder). It is a bit pricier though, at $1,6k. Another one that I just saw, apparently new in the market, is the CANYON OFF-ROAD 2. This one I like a lot, is very similar to the Smittybilt Overlander (I have one, and works great), also the price is quite good. All the best!

[@redrogers8851]

Awesome vid man

[@OutdoorExplorer]

Cheers!

[@kellykhelley2101]

what about the dune tents?

[@Mastora9]

great info here thanks for the comparisons, helped me make my decision

[@OutdoorExplorer]

Glad I could help!

Just fyi. A verse is part of a song? Verses mean to via against! Two very different words

Top Heavy Tents are last years fad
