Everything you need to know before buying your first rooftop tent.
Hardshell tents offer faster setup (under 1 minute) and better aerodynamics but cost more. Softshell tents are more affordable and often roomier but take 5-10 minutes to set up.
2-person tents suit solo travellers and couples. Families should consider 3-4 person options. Remember: marketed capacity is often optimistic - size up if possible.
Check your vehicle's dynamic roof load capacity (typically 75-100kg). Most roof top tents weigh 50-80kg. Quality roof bars or a roof rack platform are essential.
Look for 280+ GSM poly-cotton canvas for breathability in our hot climate. Good ventilation, quality zippers, and a solid rainfly are must-haves for Aussie adventures.
