Review on Experience the Ultimate Comfort with the Marmot Orbit 6 Person Camping Tent by Dusty Tofte

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Oh my God! - Camping

Bought this tent for car camping and festival camping and it's great. The best tent I have ever bought for this activity. Also bought a trail. Low key also want to buy 4p just to have options. All my friends at the festival are seriously considering this tent or 4 people. I'm serious, this is amazing. Pros: - 5 poles to set up the whole tent, my girlfriend and I set it up in about 15 minutes in the dark at a music festival the first time, very intuitive. My parents also borrowed it for the festival and installed it with no problem. - The headlight diffuser pockets in the tent itself illuminate the entire sleeping area, the best I've had in the tent is massive, these photos don't convey that properly. They can comfortably accommodate 10 people in small chairs in the closed lobby. - Dry to the bone when properly anchored and used with a prop. Tested in festival conditions with torrential downpours and 50km/h winds. - Super big inside, I'm 6ft 2" and have never had to bend down - Dimming options with different doors opening on the fly are amazing. Cons: - heavy but don't buy it as a camping tent so who cares - it only comes with two poles to open the side doors. If you want to open both doors for shade you'll need to buy two more small racks for that - ventilation isn't the best, when fully closed can get hot in the sun, don't forget the ventilation at the top of the throw. ! We put a small battery powered box fan in there as an exhaust vent and it definitely helped.

Pros
  • Interior light vents and storage bag.
Cons
  • Skimpy Instructions
