Hasika SUV Camping Tent Car Tailgate Shade Awning with Screen Net Waterproof 3000MM UPF 50+ Black (Small)

I’ve had this tent for over a year and I do a lot of car camping in my 2006 Honda Element. I hadn’t tried it out until very recently but decided on a whim to take it on my last trip. Honda Elements are extremely versatile cars and have an almost cult like following, but the rear hatch is quite different from most SUVs on the market now (they stopped making Elements some time back) and the products designed specifically to fit this vehicle are so expensive it’s almost laughable. I found this tent on Amazon and figured I give it a go, knowing that it might not be a perfect fit but prepared to make it work in the interest of saving literally hundreds of dollars. I was very surprised and pleased, both with the quality of the product and the fit. It was easy to set up and with a few careful adjustments it was almost perfect. It provided me with easily an extra 2 feet of interior space in the back of the vehicle AND it allowed me to enter and exit with ease. (A major design flaw in the Element is that Honda did not see fit to equip it with a handle for opening the rear hatch from inside the vehicle). The extra ventilation it allows when sleeping in such a relatively small space is wonderful. It made the whole experience of car camping so much easier that I almost can’t see going without it now. There are some very small gaps near the taillight area where the tent meets the car, but nothing that can’t be managed by tucking in a small cloth, if you’re worried about mosquitoes or other insects finding their way in. It was otherwise perfect, and really one of the best investments I’ve made in my camping gear! Highly recommend!

I have a very small SUV. My car is barely large enough to camp in, so finding a way to maximize available space was the priority. This hatchback tent is easy to set up. There are multiple hooks with elastic straps that can be pulled to adjust to different sections of the car to optimize a snug fit. The waterproof outer shell is easy to roll up to leave the screen opening fully available for optimal stargazing at night. No problems with the zippers or durability of the seams. It comes with a few small magnets to help secure the tent to the car. The magnets are pretty small and ineffective. If this is of concern to you, you might want to bring larger, heavy duty magnets with you on your camping trip as back ups.

Exactly what my wife and I were looking for for our first car camping adventure. Was easy to setup with two people. We had to use an extra bungee cord for one side of the straps to reach the wheel to secure in place - was not long enough for our RAV4. I also wish that it extended farther on the top for a better fit, but it works great as long as you don’t expect rain. I would assume it fits perfectly for a smaller car (hatchback size).The outer layer rolls up nicely to hide away, I just wish the zipper was double sided like the screen. Harder to unzip from the inside.

Used while car camping in Missouri and even in the wind it stayed put and held up really well. Birds pooped all over it but it wiped off perfectly with a wet rag. No mosquitos got in, although I did spray repellent around the edges to help deter anything. Heavy dew didn’t phase it and we stayed totally dry. Only used once so far but totally satisfied with my purchase and think it was worth the money. Zippers worked fine, although we were careful with it to not snag anything. Folds up extremely compact, so it doesn’t take up any room.

Just got back from a week of camping in Montana. I purchased this specifically for this trip and am thrilled I did! It fit the back of the 4Runner nicely and was relatively easy for one person to install, even with a little wind. (For reference I'm a 5'6" female)The back awning came in handy as it rained often. I could fit a Coleman camp table, chair, and my cooler under it nicely. I threw a tarp over things when the rain was blowing and to keep critter off my table. It really is spacious. It also held up to a stiff breeze. The only thing I recommend is to upgrade the tent stakes. I honestly wouldn't consider what they sent to be proper tent stakes. I will be replacing mine before my next trip.I also like that the awning can be rolled up to allow for better airflow on warmer nights and better viewing during the day if you find you need a break from the local flying biting wildlife. If you would like additional privacy, it can be zipped closed.I paired this with a couple of the slip-on bug nets for the back windows to allow for extra ventilation, which came in handy in eastern Washington.Overall, after my first run with it I'm very pleased. Will update if anything changes.

My product did not arrive with any sort of instructions on using it. But, that said, a search on Youtube yielded videos on setting up the Hasika suv tent and reviews. Set up is not too difficult for a single person to accomplish. It helped me to lower the tailgate enough to work the tent over it.I recommend paying attention to how it unfolds because trying to fold it back in order to put it back in its stuff sack is a beast. I had to make three attempts before I succeeded. You will need to lay it out on a large flat surface and work from the closed (top) end and push air down toward the loose (bottom) end as you fold it. Try to fold it into thirds.My vehicle is a 1999 Ford Explorer and the large Hasika tent model fits almost perfect. I doubt that I will need the included magnets. The material quality is the current industry standard for lightweight camping tents and should be adequate for my occasional use. I can repair any damage with Gorilla Glue and needle and upholstry thread and this tent should serve for multiple seasons. I recommend spraying this tent with a tent sealant before using (as should be done with any new tent).
