Space age materials and the extreme demands of the most adventuresome explorers have combined to bring easy and reasonably priced quick setup tents to anyone. One may go online or to the local sporting goods store and find an engineering wonder.

Where does the magic in these amazing products begin? The various manufacturers all share a few of the same claims. They say that the tent can be set up and ready to go in less than one minute! This may seem outlandish, but in fact, is true, because the fully pre-assembled tents basically unfold into their complete form with a pop-up style design.

The technologically advanced materials used in the tents are another key to their design. The lightweight poles are constructed of aluminum or fiberglass. The skin, or shell is usually a very durable polyester, with high ratings of water and wind resistance. The fire-retardant qualities of the shell are also important for anyone intending to light a campfire.

There is not a one size fits all approach to tents. Key options include size, height, and extra rain protection. How many persons do you want to fit into your new outdoor room? Accommodations may allow for only one, or as many as four campers. Domes units may allow a grown man to stand up straight, but others require the inhabitant to crouch. A drape known as a rain fly is available on some tents, and is very desirable to keep rain from seeping inside.

The best of all tent worlds has now converged into this readily available technology. The experts can spend more time doing what they choose, and the beginning camper has nothing to fear. The new tents are ready to go on the next hike, out camping, or maybe just into the backyard for a lovely evening under the stars.

Quick setup tents have made the old-fashioned, somewhat comical struggle with poles, canvas and ropes a thing of the past for any outdoor adventurer. Good riddance! The new standard is easy for all.
