My son, grandson and I go on ATV camping trips with friends and we are the only ones who don’t have an RV. RVs don’t seem like real camping to me but now I see that it’s just a different style of camping. Anyway, my son eventually wants an RV too, and one of the reasons is that after the ATV rides he comes back dirty and dusty. He found out that making a portable shower is very simple. Water pump, hoses and nozzle, 7 gallon water containers, and an enclosure. (We don’t need a water heater for now cause we camp in practically always sunny Arizona, and the sun heats the water just fine.) I was in charge of getting the enclosure. I liked this one because it is extra tall. Then when I started comparing features with other ones that are a little less expensive I decided on this. The reviews are good and I can see why. It’s so easy to use and it folds flat and goes into the flat bag that’s included. It looks and feels like a well made, quality product. He used it this past weekend when we went beach camping up at Lake Powell by the Glen Canyon dam. My son was very happy when he stepped out of his shower, nice and clean. It is an excellent product. We will also be using it as a toilet enclosure for when there are no facilities.After it arrived, the owner of the company emailed me to make sure it had arrived undamaged. They had had some problems with delivery guys throwing around their packages. Maybe because the packages are so lightweight? I think it speaks well for a company when the owner is proactive about making sure their product gets to the customer in good shape. One of the reasons I like to buy from small companies. It feels good to give them my business.

There are lots of photos of the outside of a GE Utilitent all over the internet so I focused on pics of the inside for a comprehensive review. This thing is tall, at a smidge over 6'10". I have a couple 6'3"-6'4" men among my usual camping crew so I was looking for a tall shower/changing tent to accommodate them. I've used several of these tents belonging to different friends, including the popular Wolfwise version, and have no problem with most of them (though definitely it seems like you get what you pay for).General impressions: the materials are quality and durable, it's normal quality tent fabric and the mosquito netting seems sturdy. The zippers are great, many of these tents have weak zippers. This seems like a quality product that is worth the money. It's roomy, I don't think I'd have any problem using the tent for any of its intended uses.I'm about 5'6". The height of the tent was ok. I had to kind of toss the rainfly over the top and pull the tent down a bit to manage the hooks for it at an easy height, but I handled it without a step ladder. A 5'2" friend asked for help.Most of the features of this tent are obvious in the description. But I didn't know there would be a towel hanger line across the outside back, that's very useful. I also read an older review that the points where the wire "skeleton" meets the ground are weak points that are likely to fray. The tent I got has yellow nylon webbing reinforcing these spots, so looks like they addressed that issue.I wanted a tent with no floor so I didn't have to hassle with a wet or muddy tent after showers or storms, I got a 5x7 ft tarp to put under it if needed, making for much easier cleaning.Folding the tent was fairly easy. There's a paper with instructions in the bag and a video on YouTube. My first go at folding the tent up took 2 tries, the first time I learned if you feel like you have to force it, you're doing it wrong. Once you begin to fold it up the wires can really only go one way, you just guide them into place.A couple things that would make this better: rather than a shower nozzle hole at the top, a gusset would have been better to keep more bugs out and close that hole when not in use, as it is I will probably try to make a gusset to sew onto it. Also this would be more useful for RVers if it had a zipper window or two on the back or a side to access outdoor shower controls on an RV. The toilet paper roll holder is a great idea, but it would result in wet TP during rain or at night, as the TP would hang against the side of the tent. So I probably wouldn't use it as designed there, or at least you'd want to lay a shopping bag or other plastic over it. But the loop could be used for holding a trash bag. Also folding it up, sure would be nice to have a clip or tether to keep it folded while you put it in the bag.Overall: I'm glad I bought this and would definitely suggest it to my friends, whether of average or great stature (the shorter folks might choose some other tent).

We received this item just in time for our Memorial Day trip to the lake and so we took it with us to use as privacy area for changing clothes and also as a private restroom area. (We also purchased the folding toilet seat by Green Elephant.) Everything is great about it: the design, how easily it pops up and folds down, the extra features inside such as an attached storage bag, tissue holder, a strap for holding clothes, etc.The one negative thing I will say is that after only one trip, the carry bag that it fits into has two small tears. I am not aware of anything that we did to damage it. I have used a latex liquid stitch product to close the tears, which I hope will hold. I still really like the product-I just wish that fabric hadn't torn on the very first outing. July 2019: I am adding an update:The Green Elephant people sent a replacement cover for the tent, which I appreciate.We have used this several more times for various camping and lake trips and we like it more than ever. The options for staking it out are really good- we've used the regular stakes, the guy wires, and also the sandbags, and the tent stays in place well. It's a well designed and thought out product, and now one of my daughters has purchased one for her family camping. I highly recommend this product.

Light and easy to use.

Es bastante alto, ya que mido 1.96, fácil de transportar y multi usos, excelente producto

Wahnsinns Zelt. Sehr stabil. Bisschen tricki beim Zusammenbau

Bought a less costly one of these but when it came it had a torn seam and it was difficult to collapse and fit back into the bag. This one has robust seams, folds easily and fits back into the bag. Hoorah! Well worth the extra money.Even came with instructions for folding that you could actually read and follow.

Facile d'ouverture et de fermeture. Très bien conçu, article de très bonne qualité. Très satisfaite de mon achat

Brilliant design and excellent quality. Super easy to erect and once technique mastered reasonably simple to fold flat. We are going to use this as a changing room on beach & an emergency toilet when we are stuck in the middle of nowhere.10/10 . 5* buy.
