Pro Action 4 Man 1 Room Dome Camping Tent - Red

Product Information

Pop up tents are all about convenience, so getting them up and down in good time and without frustration is a key part of what makes them good or bad. Just before we get into the detail of analysing the price of this product, we want to briefly highlight the importance of setting yourself a budget before you spend too much time shopping around for a suitable product. It’s all too often that we get carried away when shopping and find ourselves buying a fantastic product, but probably actually overdelivers on what we need and therefore costs a lot more than we should have spent. So spend a bit of time looking around at the sort of price you can expect to pay for products in the Tents category and use that alongside your own financial situation to set yourself a budget. Air circulation might not be your first concern when tent shopping, but it can have a major impact on your comfort. So let’s carry on with our ProAction 4 Man 1 Room Dome Camping Tent review and explore the product’s pricing.

Whilst in the new forest it rained one night and some of the next day and we stayed very dry in the tent, the top cover kept the rain off. We found the top cover was a snug fit but did the job well. As long as you tie it to the middle before pegging you get a perfect even fit (i forgot to tie it first time much to my partners annoyance when he couldnt get it even LOL) Has survived thunderstorms and plenty of rain - no leaks in the sleeping area and very few drips into the living space. More information on quality can be found in this old but still very helpful article from Harvard Business Review. It stayed quite cool in the sun during the day (it is quite a pale colour) and it kept us very dry in the rain! There was only 2 of us using it, as my partner is too tall to fit in smaller tents! But it had room for our double sleeping space, and all of our bags and belongings beside us, with plenty of room left.

We fitted a double airbed and a single airbed in the bed area and left our belongings in the porch area. There was no room left in this area once we had the beds in but this was fine as we only wanted it as somewhere to lay down. My partner is 5ft 9 in and we laid the airbed so that our feet were at the door end, in the morning he complained that there was not enough room to stretch out. I looked at the tent and thought all sides were the same- apparently not. My father in law suggested turning the airbed the other way and laying on it and much to our surprise when we did this there was slightly more room for him to stretch out in! Next up is material.

It comes with two canopy poles so you can have the porch door up for shade, or to cook under when it's raining. The first time I used it was just outside Brighton, me and the dog.With my son and his friend in other small tents on the next pitch.

Oh, and the basic wire pegs supplied with the tent let the side down - buy yourself some better pegs if you have this tent, it'll make life so much easier. As you can imagine, pricing is one of the most important factors of any purchasing decision. We can find the perfect product for our needs, that fits the brief in every single way. But if it doesn’t fit our budgets, we simply can’t (or at least shouldn’t) buy it. The first is brand. Looking at the brand of the product is often a really good indicator for judging product quality. For example you’d expect a much higher quality product from a brand known for providing excellent quality than you would from an unknown or even a budget brand. The only thing we noticed was the top covering didn't seem to fit completely, it was a struggle getting the pegs in the ground, and tying it to the main tent!

Of the 50 products, we discovered that 43 were more expensive and 5 were cheaper than ProAction 4 Man 1 Room Dome Camping Tent. Prices from ProAction Putting it up was easy, in spite of my allowing the instructions to blow away on the wind! The sleeping area is a good size, the outer living area is more than adequate to allow two people to shelter from a serious storm, stand up, move around, and keep all the clothing and equipment out of the storm. This is a perfect tent for first time campers, copules, teenagers and lone campers. It is fantastic value even if you pay full price. Although it's technically 4 man, I wouldn't think it would be comfy for any more than 2 adults. It was a great size for me and a large hairy dog but like caravans etc ' 4 berth' would have been an uncomfortable squeeze. Find out why ProAction 4 Man 1 Room Dome Camping Tent scored an incredible review score of 9.0 out of 10.Also, the zips for the 'doors' are fiddly - almost impossible to pull zips closed without catching something somewhere on the way. Maybe I'm just clumsy? The brand of product you buy can vary in importance, from person to person. Some people will of course be much more particular about the brands they will use. Whilst others aren’t interested in the brand and are more interested in the overall quality or price of the product itself. Thankfully ProAction is a brand that many customers have grown to love over the years and is very popular for items in the Tents category. Like the compact size, the modest price and surprised by the amount of usable space - at 1.8m, can stand upright no problem. Room for everything we take (and that's a lot!) camping with us.

The living area was large enough for us to have two chairs, a table and the cooker, along with bags etc. A handy rule of thumb is to subtract one person (or two people if you have a lot of stuff) from the number listed. This means if there are two of you (for example) you'd probably be best suited to a three-person tent. 2) Look for air vents and consider their size and quality We passed it on to our daughter and son-in-law this summer and hopefully there will be a few years left in it yet for them. The next step was to try and narrow down our search even more. So we’ve already looked the prices of products in the Tents category. Then we’ve also looked at the prices of products from ProAction. So this step combines the two and looks specifically at the price you’d expect to pay for ProAction branded products in the Tents category. The only reason I'm not giving 10/10 overall is because there is no way this tent could sleep four people in any sort of comfort, in any weather!

Small or poor-quality air vents will lead to a hot, stuffy tent and lots of condensation build-up on the ceiling. This tent served its purpose in convincing us that camping was the way forward and we upgraded this year to a larger tent with SIG as we found it to be a bit draughty with not having the sewn in groundsheet, but for the money you pay for this tent, you couldn't possibly complain! We chose the latter, went to the nearest Argos (on advice of someone in a local camping shop), and selected this tent as being the right size for the right price. We had some heavy rain on one of our trips with this tent but there was no leaks through the fabric/seams at all. It also stood up to the wind very well too.
