Kings Kwiky Rooftop Tent Review - Is it any good? NO! IT BROKE! Watch my other video where it broke.

[@OverlandTravellers]

Just so everyone knows, this tent ended up breaking and I got a warranty replacement that is heading the same way. I did an update video explaining what happened so please give it a watch. Cheers!

Did the one you got for replacement, broke same way than the first one?

[@OverlandTravellers]

The “flappers” have been sorted!!! We were hanging towels on them.... but after heaps of suggestions we now feed them through some little gaps at the top of the tent! I can’t remember who gave me that tip but cheers 👍🏽

[@t215remer]

You can use one of the internal bungy cords that come inside the tent to link the 2 flappy straps together and tuck them up above the side door, its a very quick and easy solution. Great review too guys

What is that type of truck called??

Subscribed mate. Fantastic vibe on your show. In an age of 200 grand plus super rig's its awesome to see realistic set ups with real people doing trips that are accessible to us regular folk. Will keep an eye out for your videos

[@OverlandTravellers]

“ Thanks for a great honest review.We are headed to the Big Red Bash in a couple of weeks and have ordered our tent! Thanks for helping us to decide what to buy:)” Cheers ✌🏻🇦🇺 Safe Travels

[@stanleyj.mitchell4851]

Very accurate review. I’ve had mine for 12 months and used lots. Another Con is the tie down straps. Would rather buckles. I have a 4 metres strap around the leading end in case those straps let go. Another dislike is the condensation on the inside of roof. Apart from that, again, top stuff.

[@2010gt1]

Fantastic review man. Really showed the viewer what we wanted to see. Thank you!

[@zambiakid]

Interesting about the canvas. I'm guessing they use similar canvas on their tents and swags. We bought a cheap Kings Double Swag, literally for a single 3 week trip so weren't expecting much. I'm actually very impressed by it. Waterproof and very durable. Been using it for 3 years without issue now. Our other two more expensive swags leak in very heavy rain, which this doesn't. Cheap doesn't always mean lower quality. You've got me thinking about one of these tents now.

[@OverlandTravellers]

TK-421 I agree about the canvas, they’re onto something good. I suppose if you’re making it at the quantities they are you could make half decent stuff very cheap. We haven’t had a drop of water inside from the start and is holding its integrity very well in massive changes in climate and temperature.

[@sammyscellojourney3851]

My dude! This is the best review of this pop up tent. Thanks

[@drogs]

Great review, thank you so much for putting it up. Hearing that your tent is needing replacement has really helped me make the decision on what to purchase for our needs.

[@OverlandTravellers]

Glad it was helpful!

[@GooseTube]

Great vid. I picked up one of these and love it. I also came up with a solution for “the flappers” after opening up the tent, throw each strap onto the roof, then I climb to the very top of the ladder and use a small adjustable strap (occy strap would work too) between the two straps. Hope that helps!

[@susie9893]

So nice to hear Aussie voice on KZbin. Subscribed just cos that (well and you say you'll be vlogging your travels around Oz). I liked how the tent was dusty and stuff - obviously getting used and well, dust, so Australian

[@spencercoe7550]

We have had ours for 18 months and absolutely love it recommend it to anyone that doesn't want to spend a fortune as all others start fron $4500 & upwards absolutely fantastic for the money.

[@drjukebox]

I have a Maggiolina, which is four times the price. Ten years old still flawless. No noise when driving and no change in fuel consumption. So I wonder how this holds up in the long run. Gas struts will have to be replaced at some point, usually they stop working in cold weather. The Maggiolina shell looks more sturdy and has a more streamlined look. For the money the Kings may be a good buy.

[@2adventure_oz921]

They're actually metal hinges with springs. No gas struts in there.

[@waynedoeblin6801]

I have no problem with mine,to give you some idea,on my vehicle,the ladder is barely long enough,so the pack up solo is a little harder than you experience.If you get a couple of stretchy straps,you can stop the straps flapping in the wind,see how you go,one less con👍

[@OverlandTravellers]

Wayne Doeblin haha I wish my ute had that kind of height, it’d mean I have actual clearance 😂 nah I got new suspension in recently and it’s a lot higher, and adds a little more effort to the pack up. And yeah it’s great how many different ideas I’ve got to sort the flappers from everyone, better than me just hanging the towels off. But yes straps have been mentioned a few times I’ll pick some up when I’m in bunnings next. Cheers mate!

[@folsomtransport]

Like the bloopers at the end. Nice touch.

[@OverlandTravellers]

Martin Febanske cheers mate! They’re my favorite part of the editing haha

[@dashcoja]

Top review, very comprehensive. I've just bought one and have lined the roof with a van liner to keep in some heat and stop some heat and to deaden any sound of rain on it.

[@OverlandTravellers]

dashcoja yeah I’ve been thinking of doing that! How do you rate it? Helps a bit?

[@dashcoja]

Overland Travellers got the Van Liner through Car Builders you buy in a 5 metre roll for $133. Feel like I’m in an oven or air con duct but does the job. Bugger to put on. Self adhesive and needed to put on in strips to make it look reasonable. Just laid a big strip without sticking ,under the mattress to stop cold from underneath

[@nickh5773]

iKamper Skycamp, Budtrol makes one and there is another company in qld who makes the half clam shell half hard top, give them a look at, I went to Fraser in one and they're the best. They're huge easy to set up (only 2 straps) have bigger windows and are just as quick to set up (they're about 2.1x2.1m).

[@OverlandTravellers]

Nick H if (or when) this one falls to pieces I’ll give them a look!

Hey Matt and Holly, great video and a little marketing goes a long way I guess as found your channel via this vid and will watch your adventure unfold. You balanced the audio well on this one with music not overwhelming the commentary, looking forward to seeing your new camera in action on your next upload. Great honest review, the getting-in-and-out challenge is one that might see us buy a different tent, otherwise good to know the more affordable option stacks up ok so far. Safe travels.

[@OverlandTravellers]

[@alphawiley5042]

Overland travellers The two belts on the outside of the tent, to solve the wind and beating sound problem: 1- tape them to the hardshell before you go into the tent. 2- throw them on top of the tent and tie them up together with a little piece of rope or shoelace.

[@jailbreakoverlander]

alu cab is cheaper than baroud Ive done a couple RTT reviews and a maggiolina grand tour review is coming tomoorw

[@mkoshful]

bro I put a simple plastic glue on hook on the front and back under the tent and it holds the loops down. then just run a hair tie or some tape around it and you have no flapping in the wind. The flapping is terrible and you cant sleep through it if you dont do it. good review brother!

[@PitchUpCampsiteReviews]

The con you listed about the pull cords is easily fixed by tying off a guideline to your towe ball away from the actual tent and on the front you can tie it through a front door handle or something. That would have driven me crazy for the length of time it took me to find some string and tie it.

[@OverlandTravellers]

Gods Country Bumpkin we actually had one person suggest to feed it through the little holes near the corners at the top and it’s worked a treat

[@PitchUpCampsiteReviews]

Nice, it's annoying when you've got rattles and bangs disturbing your sleep. Love your country, plan on living there in 5 years and exploring, can't wait.

[@bredvulture6989]

To stop the straps flapping roll the front one up and tuck it between the shell and canvas. For the rear pull it though the zipper at the top. Helps out a lot

[@OverlandTravellers]

cody astill thanks for the tips we will give it a go! Honestly it’s funny how many different solutions have to the “flappers” it’s great!

[@Scrambler85]

Very well done, thanks for sharing this

[@UncleFjester]

So Glad I'm not afraid to sleep on the ground

[@the_curry_cruiser]

Got to hand it for you to you for sticking it out for two months! I use a spring loaded carabiner to stop the flappers. You'll find it's just long enough to hook on where the roof top tent bolts to your roof rack. you do have to tweak it a bit and pull it to one side to get the best result. I've added two extra layers of foam to my mattress too but it's only just bearable. Definitely considering a high density foam mattress from Clark rubber. Looking at about $300 though. Also postage to WA for me was about $300. another con I would say to is being black really absorbs heat if you want to have a nap during the day, it's a no go. I'm on my second tent now. With this one has the weatherproof ladder flaps on the wrong side for my setup. It all comes down to how they assemble in the factory. First one was fine but now I'm putting holes in my canvas hooking my ladder on the wrong side. I have to unzip the canvas and unbolt the struts and twist it 180° to get the canvas weatherproof flaps on the correct side for the ladder. That is if I can be bothered taking the tent off the roof.

[@OverlandTravellers]

Reuben Jones that’s a bloody good way to strap the flappers down! We just started hanging towels on them every night and that works well, but not great for the towels if it rains 😂 next bunnings trip I’ll pick some up. Yes foam is surprisingly expensive! Exactly the issue we ran into when I was looking at doing it, I luckily got a 250mm mattress for free through work, which made cutting it to pieces a bit easier to do without thinking about how much it cost. But you will have to cut it so the struts fold in correctly. If you do get one message me and I’ll show you how I have done it. And yeah agree it get very hot. All tents do but this a bit more so. And that’s weird they do it at different sides, I would have thought they would do it to both sides!

[@the_curry_cruiser]

@@OverlandTravellers just got a slim caravan mattress from Clark Rubber. Would love your advice on cutting thanks!

[@code-fox]

awesome review, thanks

[@MichellinavanLoder]

My roof cracked on this exact tent right on the 11 month mark, one month before warranty. I got my money back tho so appreciate that. Going with the James when I can as that has a five year warranty.

[@OverlandTravellers]

Michellina van Loder that’s interesting. It’s good they honored the warranty at least! Yeah I think I’ll have to do a “12 month update” on it. And that’s a massive difference on the James tent for warranty. Fingers crossed it lasts me haha

[@allandavis6049]

@@OverlandTravellers Hi I had one when I opened it the two front struts did not work. they supplied two new ones for me to fit. (no compensation for fitting) then after 6 months the two front corners cracked on the upper shell. They replaced it with a new complete unit. Fitting was also a problem as I was fitting it on Rhino Racks heavy duty the bolts supplied were not long enough & i had to work out some way to fasten them. The new unit cracked after two months when I got in touch with them I asked if my warranty would be extended because the hole unit was replaced & the answer i got was that the warranty ran out 12 months after i bought it which means i did not get a full 12 months warranty because it was 6 weeks after paying for it that i got it. So I asked for my money back & got it no problem. Must say they were good with my claims replacing & then refunding. On my last trip Sydney to Brisbane I saw 3 Kings Pop Up Tents & each one was starting to crack as mine did. I would say to you to check yours as I stopped your video on the only good view of the drivers side front ( 3 min 30 in) & it is showing signs of cracking as mine did. I also had trouble once it was fastened the out sides of the bottom shell was flexible & rattled so I had to put rubber under it. Other than the cracking problem I thought it was good to sleep in for 1 person & once I got use to putting it up & down on my own no problem. I did enjoy your video I thought you did a great job good luck with your travels.

[@OverlandTravellers]

Allan Davis that’s good to hear about someone who has had one of these tents longer! Thanks for all the tips, I’ll have to make sure it doesn’t crack, I’m about to get onto the really rough stuff so the real test will be the next 6 months. Good to hear they at least were good with the refunding of the money.... who knows..... I might need it soon!

Great review Matt - thank you!!

[@MikeBanks2003]

Anything with gas struts has a powerful internal strain when the struts are compressed. This means plastic needs to be reinforced with metal, such as stainless steel or aluminium. I always reinforce them with stainless--it is tougher. Some have tried fibreglass with metal inserts to take the dtrut anchor points. Lotsa luck wuth that one, but properly done it should work as long as the struts are not too powerful.

[@Aphony66]

Have you considered putting a latex mattress in there. Your sleep will be the best ever. Much better than a normal foam mattress. Little bit heavier but definitely worth it.

TinyHouse and Offgrid Resources yeah mate pretty heavy.... but rooftop tents generally are around that. I suppose it’s a decent surface area and if you had really thin plastic it would turn to shit pretty quick. But yeah if you’re a serious off roader too much weight up top would be a deal breaker.

[@officialWWM]

As with most of Kings products, this thing is an absolute bargain! Let's face it, 95 percent of people who buy their stuff are probably likely to use it half a dozen times a year at most. Used in that capacity, you don't need a $5000 roof top tent! Sure, you might be hardcore or planning some major adventure but I still think the Kings tent would be up to the task.

[@recommit]

Can't believe the access door is also the access cover with steel props that needs to be disassembled every time you want to close the tent up at night. It should have been designed with a separate door & cover to always have the entrance covered. Looking at the competition to see what they have designed.

[@OverlandTravellers]

Airborne Images sorry if it wasn’t clear in the review but you don’t need to do that every time to close the tent, it’s optional. The steel props only allow you to have to main entrance canvas flap up at the sides if you wish. Honestly we never use them, we close it up with the zips usually. And have the windows at either end open for ventilation. Hope this helps :)

[@OverlandTravellers]

Airborne Images it actually has two doors, one mesh and one canvas, you can close both or leave the canvas one either propped up or rolled up and hitched at the top.

[@recommit]

Overland Travellers I understand that from your description, but the folding or “clam shell” tent has a permanent awning over the access door protecting the bedding from rain that stays there at all times. With the Kings Pop up, If you want to seal the tent up for the night in cooler climates you need to remove the ability to cover the doorway in order to achieve that. They should have put a double canvas panel there to have a rain cover and a sealable door, just like the folding tent has. This is a deal breaker for me, just bad (or cheap?) designing.

[@OverlandTravellers]

@@recommit I have found it really good in the wet and cold. The west coast of Tassie was both and I never had any issues with the bedding getting wet or anything like that. But yes the clam shell style tents do provide more cover at the entrance. If you get an opportunity to go to a 4WD supercenter warehouse you should be able to check both out for yourself and see what would suit you :) Hope this helps.

[@dagsbouch]

@@recommit ,I have 1 of these and I do agree with you, they should of made another door on the inside with the same canvas so you can leave the outside awning up, I leave both sides up but have a towel on both inside openings held up with pegs to stop the light in the mornings, have not had a heavy raining trip as yet but would close both sides if I did, the 2 ends have the canvas on the inside and they are great, I reckon they also should have a pocket for each side for personal items ( his and hers ) as they only have 2 on 1 side but since i'm by myself I don't have a problem. I have not added another mattress but it's not a bad idea. I also have had a strut fail and they replaced it. I like the occy strap idea for the end flaps, will give that a go. But to you sir I would not be so quick to buy something else, this is pretty good for the money, I have had mine for about 15 months and it is a good product. Hope this helps you or anyone else, Cheers Dags.

@@OverlandTravellers Vids are great. we moved from Qld to Tas for about 3 years, and have been back in Qld now for a bit... seeing your vids make us miss it so much :) keep up the great content & have fun.

Great review. Hey..would the ladder be long enough for a patrol with 3inch lift & 33inch tyres do you think?

[@OverlandTravellers]

Daryl Zampese yeah mate pretty sure it would. Just go online and have a look at how tall it is fully extended.

Haha the end is too good! Question.. how does it go with rain? The windows don't have any covers over them, does water get in if you zip the window cover up?

[@OverlandTravellers]

kizz jd honestly we haven’t had a single drip of water get in and that’s in some pretty serious rain 👍🏽

Doesn’t look very airtight when you strapped it down?

[@OverlandTravellers]

Mazda_Media yeah I’ll see how it goes when we get onto the red dirt! Might be a different story inside.

Do you know a supplier of these shipped to the US? They're like $2k+usd ($2,900aud) here plus shipping and I can't see spending that much on something that'll likely break like your's.
