    Roof Top Tent on ebay

    Hello AULRO ers.

    Can I get your opinions regarding a type of roof top tent currently sold on ebay.
    Seller is ARCO designs , brand is Sahara , Ripstop Canvas.

    It is the 1200x2400 smaller unit with external ladder

    Not the worlds greatest quality but for the 6-10 times a year I'd use it what do you think.

    I bought a damaged one from Arco design .
    The damage was a hole about the size of a 20 cent piece and easily fixed .
    The vendor is very helpful .

    Had mine for about 3 years now....still going strong...cover starting to rip a little in corners. Spent 3 months out west touring in it, no problems.Been through 12inches overnight at Carnarvon, no problems. Good value.If you have a defender remember to get the ladder extension.




    cheers

    Thanks Guys

    Dfndr. Where was the damage , in the ripstop or the base?

    Longreach is yours the one with a tarp type bottom or solid bottom and was it new at $ 500.

    OLR. Yours looks like a very swish one. Better than the ebay ones? I see the ladder extension on yours but longreach does not seem to have one on his?

    I think they're a great idea...need to get SWMBO accustomed to the concept

    Am hoping to get to the Qld Caravan and Outdoor show week after next to make some comparisons...I seem to recall there are a couple of other designs where the ladder is "internal" in bad weather when the skirt is deployed...

    But $500 ...damned good deal... the savings buy a lot of umbrellas
