February 28, 2023I used this daily for the three months I lived and traveled in northern India. The pop up area is spacious over the head/shoulder area. The netting is long enough that it completely covers sleeping bag, and can even be pegged into ground like a tent if used outside. As I was never sure where I would be sleeping, this was invaluable and easily fit into my hiking pack.

September 1, 2022I bought this for my son's camping trip. Before he left, we watch the video and tried to close it back together.... Impossible!!! We were 4 people watching and pausing the video, and everybody tried, but we couldn't figure it out. I managed to make it a bit smaller, and it went in a big pocket in the back of his chair. I think it worked fine for him. After I bought it, the price went up $10, and I don't think that was right. I paid the cheaper price, but I don't like price gouging.

July 21, 2022This product is awesome. I love the small pack size and it's good for minimalist campers. It can be a bit awkward to get in and out of once it's set up, but practice makes perfect. I had to travel to Indonesia for my work and this kept all the insect off me during the evenings. I also use it for comping while in the USA, as well. There's a good youtube video on how to pack it back down if you have trouble with that. It's easy to find.

June 10, 2022Very good idea, not enough netting. For my particular needs, I am using and appreciating the Net. First of all, it fit into my hand baggage and was light enough for the kg allowance. Secondly, I am using it on a bed with a mattress so that I can tuck the two side ridges around the edges and my pillow blocks any opening above my head. As to folding it up, once you get the hang of it, it twists back into its bag no problem. However, for some unknown reason which I am sure the manufacturer could put right, there is scarce material around the head pop up part which is a real shame. All it would need would be to attach some more netting to the side flaps so that you could either tuck in better or let hang, allowing for the more restless sleepers to turn in the night without risking exposure. When I get home I shall try attaching some old netting and I am sure I will be able to remedy the defect.
