GoHimal SUV Tent for Camping, 8' W x 8' L x 7.2' H, for 5-8 Person, Green

Well dang, this is a much nicer tent than I was expecting for the price! The reviews did not lie. What I liked: - Super well waterproofed. Huge rainstorms every day, and we had no problems. There was even a small amount of standing water under my side of the tent one day (felt like a thin water bed, lol) and nothing got in. -Fit well around the opening of our SUV, no issues with bugs or water getting in. -Decent amount of space— we fit a queen air mattress + had room for an XL dog bed for our 90lb & very long pup. We both could stand up comfortably in the middle + under the SUV hatch (5’9” and 6’1”). -Colors are pleasant. Unobtrusive in nature but colorful enough to have personality. This shade of green matches the Subaru Autumn Green very nicely (more olive-toned than the listing photos) -Impressively good quality for the price. I’ll be curious to see how it holds up over time, but none of the materials feel cheap, and the quality control seems good. -Sidewall hanging pockets were convenient -Tent seems to be holding up so far to my dog camping with us. Smaller dogs may find the threshold at the tent door a little high. Things I like a little less: -If you aren’t using the car feature, the amount of standing room area is a little small for tall people -I really wish there were doors on more than one side of the tent. We keep ending up with campsites where (in order to park our car with the tent) we HAVE to set it up with the door facing the very edge of our campsite, with the rest of the space on the opposite side. It’s not the end of the world, but matters when you can’t just rotate the tent because of the car. -Definitely awkward to set up with just one person. My spouse (military engineer— definitely can put up a tent, lol) prefers to do tent setup alone but even he had to admit this tent is a two-person job. He managed to do it but mentioned it took much longer to setup alone than other tents he’s done by himself. Disclosure: I was compensated for my review my the manufacturer, but in no way advised on what to say, how to rate the product, etc., these are my honest opinions. Will update review if I have further feedback after more extended use!

Exactly what I was looking for to fit my Chrysler Pacifica. Pros: •Set up and tear down was easy enough for one person to complete in around 30 minutes. I did do a run through prior to actually arriving at my campsite. •Everything held up to four days of Florida storms, including one that produced a tornado just 15 minutes away. Many tents surrounding mine were ripped, collapsed, and leaking while this one didn’t budge an inch and showed no signs of water coming inside. •The large windows provided adequate ventilation and air movement even in 90 degree heat. •The storage compartments around the inside proved to be very useful for holding flashlights and other necessities for easy access. Cons: •Setup instructions could be improved upon. Like I previously stated, I did a trial set up before arriving to my campsite so it worked out the kinks but instructions were lacking details. Straps and poles were referred to with letter names (A, B, C…) in the directions but there wasn’t actually anything labeled on the tent. It was a little bit of trial and error at first. •Some of the plastic and metal on the straps worried me that it would rub the paint on my car especially during high wind or storms. I chose to remedy this by using cut pool noodles to cover those areas. It was worth the added step to protect my vehicle. Overall this is a great tent and I would highly recommend it.

For the price, this is a hard option to Beat. The only reason i'm not giving it five stars is because the durability is slightly lacking. Overall, the design is really well-thought-out and it is easy to set up even if you are only one person. I have not had any issues with the zippers, and it fit perfectly on the back of my suv and my friend's pickup truck. The thing I like most about it is how roomy and spacious it is. I also love the fact that you can use it as a tent on its own. The best part about this tent is that it comes in a bag that is big enough to fit the tent after you take it down. No more hassling to try to fit a large tent into a small bag!

We’ve used it twice now and have two more trips to go. It’s roomy enough to put a queen sized blow up mattress in it with a nightstand. Simple to put together and great quality.

Puchased 8/21/23 on Amazon after much research on SUV tents. This was a new item on Amazon and it didn’t have many revues yet, and I was skeptical it would fit our 2023 Ford Expedition, and after hesitating for more than a week the tent went on sale for $30 off so I pulled the plug and ordered. The tent came pretty quick, very tight packed in storage bag and I was afraid we would never get it back in the bag again, we did. So first thing we needed to confirm is that it would fit our truck. We decided to set up in our back yard first to practice and confirm it fit, and it does but no room to spare when strapping to the back end. First time unpacking, reading instructions, setting up tent, attaching to truck took about hour. Strapping the tent is an experiment and figured you need to have the tailgate half way down, then slide the tent onto the backend of the truck, after attaching straps you lift the tailgate and it will not go all the way up with this truck, you will need to watch your head when climbing in and out. The tent seems good quality, good size for my wife, me and the dog, good windows, ventilation, and standing room. Sliding the polls through the pockets is not easy, it helps to have 2 people putting this up. We spent a couple nights sleeping in our back yard and were not bugged by mosquitoes finding their way in. The only complaint was sleeping on hard floor of the truck without good padding. First time camping trip to Madeline Island, WI on 6/18/24 would really test this tent in nasty weather. We knew the weather was warning for possible heavy storms that night, but decided to set up tent anyway, had black plastic down on dirt and outdoor carpet in tent, The site grade had the truck roof tilting down to the tent which worried me water would run off into the tent. It started to rain about 7pm and down poured all night, got up middle night to use the potty expecting inches of water in tent but only slight dampness on floor, was amazed next morning there was not a foot of water in tent, only a little damp! It rained so hard that many roads on the island were washed out. I have to say I think the truck has a channel directing water down under the truck when tailgate is open. The rain fly worked as expected, the camp site was a muddy mess, but we stayed dry for the most part, we then disconnected the tent and went to town. We stayed one more night and just folded the tent in a tarp as the bottom was still muddy, getting home we dried and cleaned the tent and packed away. Good tent for the money

Looking for a tent that would provide extra room of the back of my Outback, I thought I would give this product a try. We went on a 20 day road trip. During our travels, we set the tent up and broke it down five times. Not too difficult to set up and the way it connected to our vehicle was great. The tent was tall and provided the extra space we needed. Now to why I returned this item. While we were breaking down the tent, one of the sections of poles split in half resulting in a pretty good cut on my hand along with some splitters. The tent was useless after this because without the poles the tent would not work properly. Good idea and concept but poor quality. Guess that is why it is priced so low compared to other similar products.

I purchased last year but just took it out camping for the first time last weekend. It was tricky to put up as a first time. The instructions were not helpful. I'm glad my adult daughter was there, it's definitely a 2 or 3 person job. Overall we like it but I was very disappointed to find a hole in the bottom of it. I'm hoping there's a patch available to fix it. It was a big purchase for me and it should not have a hole.

This is the best tent for the price, and I've recommended it to a lot of people in my camping groups. It's very roomy, and I fount it easy to set up alone even though I'm short. The only change I made was that I use caribiners instead of the clips for the poles. The clips were very difficult to get on and off. The floor is thin so I put a canvas painter's tarp on it to make sure it lasts longer, and it comfortable to stand on. I also figured out a way to rig it over a back passenger door instead of the hatch-back. Although it left a gap at the wheel well, which I worked around by stuffing with a big plastic tarp so animals couldn't get in at night. Zippers seem like good quality, and the rain fly worked well.
