Product Information
Full details
The Mil-Tec 4 Person Tent is designed for campers seeking a spacious and functional shelter for group trips. Its key benefit is ample interior space and good ventilation, suitable for up to four people. A potential caveat is its 1500mm water column flysheet, which may require supplementary waterproofing for heavy rainfall. This tent offers two entrances, four mosquito-protected ventilation windows, and a durable steel frame, making it a practical choice for moderate weather camping.

Troubleshooting
Tent is difficult to set up.
Ensure poles are correctly assembled and inserted into the corresponding sleeves/clips. Check that the tent is oriented correctly before securing stakes.
Condensation inside the tent.
Open ventilation windows fully. Ensure all vents are clear of debris. Use guylines to keep the flysheet taut, allowing better airflow between the flysheet and inner tent.
Water seepage through the flysheet.
Apply a seam sealer to all seams. Reapply a waterproofing spray to the flysheet, especially for areas showing wear or reduced water repellency. Ensure the flysheet is taut and not touching the inner tent.
Groundsheet feels damp.
Ensure the tent is pitched on a level surface free of sharp objects. Consider using a footprint or tarp underneath the groundsheet for an extra layer of protection and insulation.
