      Thanks, we've missed getting out camping and filming too. Just gonna be some day trips until our dry season kicks in up here.

    Welcome back. We thought you might have finished your trip, and just gone home. All roof top tents have their problems. Bedding storage, Mattress comfort, The width of bed, condensation, leaking around the seals, leaking zips, canvas quality, even the weight of the unit can be a problem. Safe Travels.

    Thanks for the honest review, what would you recommend for similar size/dimension and weight? I’m looking to surprise myself 😉

    • @thirsty.ramblers

      No dramas at all. Honestly I can't personally recommend anything else in that size/weight range. We're looking at the Bushcompany RTT range.

      No dramas at all. It's the review I wish someone had made before I bought one.

    Thanks for the review mate. I was looking at getting one, but I think I'm leaning more towards the Bush Company RTT. Cheers 🤙🤙

      That's what I'm also looking at getting.
      The warranty was pretty straight forward. Through the Darche website, submit proof of purchase, select the product, write down the issues and upload photos.
      Had to chase them up a couple of times over the phone to get the ball rolling but once the claim was accepted they sent a courier to collect the old. One they had it they sent out the new one.

    Good review! Think I may have dodged a bullet…at my price range and weight 23Zero is looking like a good option

    • @thirsty.ramblers
      @thirsty.ramblers  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Good choice!

      mate it was until I sat in it today and realized its WAY to small at 6' tall. Pretty surprised actually! @@thirsty.ramblers

    Maybe you can try out SAN HIMA rtt😏

    • @thirsty.ramblers
      @thirsty.ramblers  ปีที่แล้ว

      Their range of tents look nearly identical to Darche's. Think I'll steer clear of them.
      I'm liking the bush company RTT's as they have a checker plate top so less prone to sun damage.

    With the skylights i had an ezytrail camper that had the funky plastic skylights and same they all cracked its a shit idea and cant believe Darche are stupid enough these days to do it stay well clear of amything with these plastic so called skylights

      Not wrong mate, something you thing this sort of industry would have learnt by now.

      I’ve had PVC plastic windows on my Zempire tent for 10 years. Granted it’s only use 1-2 times a year but it’s never cracked or shown that kind of damage…I think it’s a good idea to for the star gazing, perhaps Darche’s let themselves down on quality and manufacturing

    Aftermy 81 years i have never found a plastic that lasts in the sun none of the patio furniture last no matter the price 2 convertibles cars bothe plastic windows went tp s---t . plastic is just committing suicide in the sun.

      Very true, I'll never use a plastic based item for a vehicle again.
      Thanks for watching 🍻
