Having never used a rooftop tent before I did a lot of research and was wary of the low price of the Adventure Kings rooftop tent. However, I took the plunge and bought one a couple of weeks ago.

The installation instructions were clear and simple and there was no issue with getting it onto the roof rack (however, the tent illustrated in the instructions was not the one I purchased). When I unfolded the tent one of the locking pins on the ladder broke without any force being applied to it - the quality of the ladder is shocking! (This was reso...Read more

i have used this tent 4 maybe 5 times for a total of around 14 days. the rest of the time it has been zipped up with the black cover on it. Unfortunately the last time we went camping we arrived and flipped over the tent and zipped on the annex, but as soon as i grabbed the black straps i noticed they were really perished some even dissolved in my hands. the straps on the annex all fell apart so we couldnt use it which was really painful as it is where we keep our dogs at night so they don't wander off and cause any problems. We also use it as ...Read more

Enjoyed the tent very much in our first month after much difficulties figuring out how to actually use it. The waterproof cover that comes with it is so difficult to put on we usually spend most mornings struggling to get it on without ripping it up. Yes, the new models have covers made to fit so snugly it’s almost impossible to get it on. Normally when it is properly set up it holds up pretty well in rain and wind. However, today while we were driving on the road in high winds, the velcro straps came apart, the cover flew off and our entire te...Read more

I bought a Kings Roof Tope tent recently. We (myself and girlfriend) were so excited for our first roof top camping adventure. It was easy set up, nice and roomy, well ventilated and with internal pockets.
Unfortunately we encountered some inclement weather on our 7 day trip. It rained most nights when the tent was set up.
I thought the tent would be waterproof... Incorrect! Every time it rained our mattress would become wet through, due to what I consider, poor waterproofing around the seams which connect the tent to it's base. The base would...Read more

Set up was easy, we had plenty of room. The teenagers were in the rooftop we were in the 6 man annex and our baby was in the cot under the rooftop. We were so happy with our purchase until we had a very light shower and I mean light we noticed water puddles on the floor. It happened in the middle of the night and I thought I must of not shut one window quick enough. I was half asleep so didn’t think to much of it. The following morning we got up noticed a storm was coming. We zipped up everything laid in bed and the annex leaked in a few place...Read more

Recently (3-4 weeks ago) purchased an adventure kings rooftop tent with annex. Have not actually camped in it yet but have set it up in the backyard to get a good feel for it. The rooftop tent itself sets up and folds down really well as stated and seen on YouTube clips. The annex on the other hand is a completely different story. It's flimsy and flappy in the wind and it leaks. The door and windows only zip on the sides and not all the way around like the tent or the fly screens allowing rain to enter the annex, even during light rain I have f...Read more

Only bought the rooftop tent 7 weeks ago. Fitted to a specially constructed steel frame on a campertrailer. Used only twice. This tent has travelled from Townsville to Hervey Bay and back, NEVER been off-road. We took it up to Mission Beach, only to find when we opened her up, that the bolt which connects the main HINGE system between front/back or lower and upper ( whichever way you want to interpret ) had completely undone and was found under the matress. WORSE the other side HINGE plate bolts AND nyloc nuts had completely undone and were mis...Read more
