L RUNNZER Single Person Pop Up Tent, 1 Person Mosquito Net Tent

As a 6'1" camper, I was happy to find this bivvy tent has plenty of room and a strong, durable mesh and pole system that handles moderate pressure without ripping or breaking. However, it has a major engineering flaw: a double-zipper roof design that leaves a quarter-size gap right where the zippers meet. Bugs congregate there immediately, sensing your heat. To keep mosquitoes and noseeums out, you absolutely must cram a thin grocery produce bag or some Saran wrap into that hole to plug it. Edit: after living in it for a week I must say I do like it. It's super roomy and I see the other model has solid fabric over the main dome which I really would not have liked. I just found another pocket. They're handy side pockets on either side in here. Great for a phone or glasses or book or whatever you think. I like how there's solid fabric of the first half foot of the side walls so I feel like it keeps up sneaky smaller bugs. And sure water gets through the bottom but that's to be expected I put a waterproof tarp underneath it anyway and on top. I just rolled up this sides of the tarp for breeze. That works really good because I can unzip either side of my tent to unroll either side of the tarp in case of rain or if I want some breeze and openness. I bought a noseum net to throw over this and I'm really glad. I can just unzip this and lift that up if I want or if I want to take my shoes on and off I can sit here and have that secondary net over me. I duct taped a produce bag to one of the zippers so I always have that handy to plug the stupid quarter size hole on the very top of the dome where these zippers meet. Good tip there. I'm bumping it up from three stars to five because I think this is probably the best model of this type of mosquito tents You're going to find here. I definitely wish it had that middle hoop like some models I've seen if you can find that one get it because yes it does sag in the middle too much it barely is above my knees and the tarp brings it down a bit. All my moving around in here with my gear I still have not created a rip. It's not weak material. The tent setup is fast if everything is aligned, but packing it down is an absolute nightmare. Any amount of wrestling with the internal slinky pole will warp it if you don't fold it perfectly. Once warped, the tent gets tipsy and the sides lean in, requiring you to physically guide and rub the pole inside its sleeve to coax it back into shape. Finally, the included stakes are incredibly flimsy; they bent quickly when being hammered into medium-packed earth. If you cinch the foot-side maximum tight, it won't sag to your knees, but definitely plan on upgrading the stakes and bringing a plastic bag for the roof gap.

-Got not bites -Easy set-up -Plenty of space for my size: 5'7", 135lbs. -Head area more spacious than I expected -Zipper works smoothly -Easy in/out because two zippers -Lightweight -Discreet -Little pocket inside -Fabric the zipper is attached to is not heavy - avoid using it fast or pulling hard. Actually, all the fabric I think can tear if you're not careful with it. Not heavy duty. But not totally cheap, I'm happy with it. -Folding it up was awful. After ~45 min. it was good enough to get back into the carry pouch whew! The directions were terrible; only vaguely useful. I'm sure it's just a matter of practice. My other pop-up tent is the same, it's not this tent's issue. It's the nature of the design. But that's the price of the ease of set-up. -Sides have no loops for the ground stakes so it's really loose. But once I was inside it didn't matter. I can sew loops on easily (I think?) if I feel the need. -The bottom (by feet) hoop does not stay up on it's own, need to use the cord to tie it to something. But nothing heavy duty; I tied it to a very small log/big branch that was on the ground with a regular bow tie. (see pics/vids)

Perfect description. Arrived early with no damage. Perfect for what I need. Easy to set up and use. Protects me from bugs. Air flow is good. I feel safe and protected. So convenient. I highly recommend. Very well made ,excellent quality .

This is a really nice well made tent. The mesh is very sturdy and the rain cover works well. I tested it in my yard today during a light rain. It's a very portable lightweight design. This would be great for a child, backpacking, or single person day trips. It sets up very quickly. The rain cover attaches using buckles. If the kids are small enough you could easily have two kids camp out or slumber party together. The tent comes with two storage bags. A larger one (If you struggle to get the tent folded up to the original super compact design) and accidentally smaller compact storage bag. It fits well in either bag. A word of caution, however, practice packing this up as few times before you first use it. It took me about 20 minutes and searching a video review to watch someone else do it to figure out how to do it. I did not find the provided instructions helpful. I find it easier to fold up the dome arch part, roll the bottom material around it end over end (to keep it compressed) and then fold up the other half circles.

This tent was way too big for the use I wanted--to sleep insect-free inside my car when it's hot & I have to have the windows open. No rainfly so not sure how useful it is to use as a tent unless you were sure it wasn't going to rain. Looked like it would have good head room. The worst thing is I am a reasonably intelligent/handy person & I could NOT get this to fold up to fit back into its small carry bag. I followed the directions that were provided but it was just poor photos w/captions reading: fold A to B, etc. I struggled for an hour & just gave up as I was afraid I was going to damage it by folding/twisting it wrong. I've learned my lesson: if the product has to be twisted around itself to fold it into a smaller package, count me out! Had to return it in a big box because I couldn't get it to fold down to fit into carry bag/shipping envelope.

Lasted 4 years of scout camp with a boy who's not exactly careful with his belongings. Bought this in 2022, just put it away after another stay at scout camp. It's had its share of snags and small tears in the netting that I've patched up in a couple of minutes with some basic thread. Structurally it has held up with no unwarranted breakdown. At the end of camp, my son can't figure out how to (or doesn't care to figure out) how to put it away properly, so the wires have become bent. This last time putting it away I had to watch the video 10 times to figure out exactly where to hold it and press the wires back into their intended shape. I think next year might be the last year after we get it back out from the bag, not sure it's getting back in. For the price, won't complain. I'm sure for someone more diligent this could last a decade.

It's OK. Good for avoiding bugs, but needs a sizable tarp to shed the elements. It's not going to keep out water from coming in on the lower edges or bottom either. Simple set up and storage. Perfect light and convenient bug protection only setup. I'm a big dude and for me not very roomy either, but workable.

Zippers are easy to use, the weight is light, the ventilation does allow you to get hot.
