Hi - Just thought I'd let you know ... after watching your video, we decided to buy the Gazelle T4 Plus Overlander! Just arrived and we're letting it warm up (was below freezing temps during its transit). Our first camping trip will be 5/19/23! We actually ordered 3 other tents prior and returned them (Amazon was NOT happy! Oh well). We ordered the Gazelle from the manufacturer. So excited about using this tent. It's everything we were looking for. Thank you for your video.

@@redgreengrass Wow, thanks for asking! It was fantastic! My first camping experience and I enjoyed it all. We did have some good luck to be able to scoff up a cancellation for a lakeside site. That made all the difference in the world (esp seeing the dud we booked originally - lol). The tent performed like a champ! Fri night until about 4pm on Sat, weather fine. Then the rain started and eventually the skies opened up. Two huge bouts of pounding rain and wind and the tent didn't budge in the slightest. Rock solid. We went right back to sleep because we felt totally secure in it. We shopped for months for this purchase, and even ended up returning three other tents (we hadn't even opened them because they were so light weight). This tent is substantial, well designed and assembled with care. We couldn't be more pleased owning this one! Thank you so much for your video.

Very good demonstration of setting up the tent. Nice to finally hear someone reviewing these Gazelle tents say it takes longer than 60 or 90 seconds to set up a tent and then you are done. And good to even point out things like pushing the ground sheet under the tent so rain doesn’t collect and a method for pulling tent pegs. Obviously not your first rodeo. A demonstration of the tent in the rain was also informative. Well done sir.

I have the T4 and as a 73 yr old female I can put it up in 5-10 min by myself; much easier with a helper. I have to buy a pop up screen room but I’d love the plus with attached screen room! May have to rig up a cover connecting the two. If raining I sleep in my in my minivan. It was worth what I paid a couple years ago. Clam screen room with no floor will fit over a picnic table. Mosquitos are big prob in my area.

I’m a bit older than most tent campers, campus, same arthritic issues that some have. I have been looking at the T4 and the T 8 tents, thinking that it should be pretty easy to set up and take down. I’m going to try to find a camping store around me that might have one on display that I can see how hard it is to pull the sides out and push them back in thinking it shouldn’t be that hard I love this chat this would save me from buying two items, the tent, and then the screened in canopy, thank you for such a fantastic overview of this tent. I think you’re sold me on it.

Thank you so much for an honest review. I bought two of these a few days ago hoping for the best. After watching you I think I made the right decision. Bad reviews about abrasions on the fabric during transit has been fixed (May 2023). On some job sites I live in a tent for 2 months or more, so I need a great tent. Right now my go-to tent is the E-Z UP Camping Cube which is great, this one is better. I climbed Mount Whitney, so I have slept in a shell of a tent. Climbing and camping is different, if you have the room to fit this in your car it is incredible.

Great review and advice on many parts of setting up the T4+. That Gazelle footprint is more expensive, but it is also incredibly tough as well and I like that it fits the parameter of tent perfectly without adjustment. Also, when setting up on gravel or rocky ground, put the 2x2 interlocking foam squares over the footprint to protect the bottom of the tent from getting punctured or worn. It helps your feet inside of the tent too! :)

As an owner I have to say this is by far the best overview of the T4+ anywhere. I actually even learned a few thing. I run the screen room floorless as our muck/chair area and I have had to trench a few times in weather like that lol. The one caution I would note is I had the retention grommets fail (the grommets in the four corners that hold the poles the fly connects to). They just tore out mid season. Gazelle opted to replace the unit but probably could have been fixed. Just be aware, lot of tension on those grommets even when packed up. The other middle poles dead-end into sleeves which are more robust. Understand the design compromise here just something you may want to keep an eye on so you don’t discover an issue in the filed as I did.

G'day from Australia. Thank you for the great review of the T4 Plus. So many good ideas. I have recently taken delivery of an Alpine green T4 hub tent. Possible the very first in Australia. I have taken on board all of your suggestion... I really like the T4 Plus but I'm old and don't think I can handle a 62 lb tent. The T4 is 30lb and even at that I would not want to be carrying it too far. Yours was a great review and helped me make the final decision to import this tent to my country. Your tent really does look great.... Well done.

A very comprehensive review of this tent . I’m watching from Australia and there is one major flaw in this tent that just won’t work in Australia , that being the gap where the crickets got in . Crickets are no big deal but seeing as Australia has many deadly snakes and spiders it’s a big NO for me , the other issue that is a red flag is the price , $3500.00 Au dollars for this tent is daylight robbery which doesn’t include postage . Thanks for taking the time and effort to post this review for us .

Very nice tent, buuuuttttt……purchased a t4 plus tent a few months back after months of research. Was stoked and couldn’t wait to get it in the mail. I knew before purchasing that it was pretty big when all packed up and didn’t think it would be an issue. But once I got it, oh man it was just too big and pretty heavy. If your trying to save space on camping/over landing adventures. Or trying to move to a more minimal approach, I don’t recommend this tent. It’s just really big and heavy. I put it up on Craigslist that day and sold it for the same price I got it for lol.

What are your long term thoughts on the design of the velcro detachable floor? I've seen some other review mention that it can be a hassle to get the velcro lined up when using the door on the open screened in area, and it can be a real easy way for insects and even rodents to get in the tent. I'm not sure what the thinking was around that part of the design. It seems like it would be plenty easy to sweep/wipe out the floor without needing to detach it to clean it.

This tent is amazing! It rains a lot where I am but seeing your video makes me feel confident that this tent should work. Which I’m super happy about because I want a tall tent with a large entrance to act as a living room area/changing room (we have a truck tent which is pretty much just for sleeping) but most tents I have looked at don’t measure up to what I want. Was the rain extended for you and short, apologies if you mentioned it? Also, the place you camped at is beautiful! Thanks for this video is helped me decide on things.

Well , I got my standard T4 last September. I didn't get to use it , because last years Canoe Adventure got canceled. So in preparation for this years 35 Night Canoe trip , I set it up and tested it out in rainy weather. Glad I did too , because it definitely leaks. I cut a tarp to size for under the tent and cut another for inside the tent. At first I thought it didn't leak a drop. But then found water under the tarp that I used as a floor liner. Didn't find any on top of the floor liner though , so that makes me think it leaked through the walls and ran under the floor liner. So , I just ordered 3 cans of Kiwi water proofing spray. Hopefully thats does the trick. It's sad though , it shouldn't leak at all. If the spray fixes the problem , which I won't know until the Adventure in September , then i guess it was still a good buy for ease of set up. I'll just spray it every year. Gazelle needs to fix this issue though.

I was seeing these on Amazon and thinking...looks awesome...what's wrong with it? Now I know...Its perfect. They should be ashamed. LOL I was hesitant to spend the bucks but after watching this its a no brainer. The only thing I see that I'd probably want to modify is the ties for the flaps. I'd want to go with velcro personally although your friction tie method is likely workable where high wind is not an issue.

I have been looking at this tent and other Gazelle tents. I noticed you said you can open both entrance flaps without staking it. My question is do you think I could open/mold the doors to allow me to back up my Tesla Model 3 trunk and open inside the entrance and either use the car AC or heat or sleep in the car but be able to stay dry with the trunk open and move into the tent from the trunk. Thanks! Great review by the way.

I spent $89 on a Coleman 4 person insta-tent. I've had it for 14 years and is finally showing some signs of wear. I was curious to see what's new out there and a friend told me about Gazelle. I've never had the issues with the Coleman tent I see in this vid with water/bugs etc and have also been in some crazy weather. I've never had to put a tarp under it. It has never leaked. This thing is $500+. Thanks but no thanks. I'll buy another Coleman.

Hello I just got done watching your Video an thoroughly enjoyed it. One question I had was regarding staking down the tent and tying the guidelines. I wanted to ask if next time you use your gazelle tent if you don't mind showing how you attach the guidelines to the tent and also the type of knot you use to attach the guideline to the stake as well please.

Glad you enjoyed this video! I have no plans to make a video on how I guy out the tent. However, there are many videos on how to tie guy lines to tents. I do recommend tying the lines directly to the metal hardware and not the pull handles, however.
