- I'm reviewing the NaturNest hardshell RTT from Amazon, installed on my 4Runner! It currently runs around $1300 USD + shipping, which ended up being around $1600 total! These used to be $1000 and will likely increase from here on out.
If you're interested in purchasing this exact tent, check out the link below! This is only my second video on TH-cam, like and subscribe if you're interested in seeing more content!

Dude you just sold me, with your help I will be purchasing this tent. I’ve been looking for one for about a year or two but you’re right, the price is phenomenal. Keep up the good work I’ll ping you if I need help on installation.
Thanks bud Mahalo.🤙🏼
Awesome! Apparently on the listing questions, there was an issue with another person selling the tent saying daneoverlanding is a fake account? I purchased it from GEWUU instead of daneoverlanding (so I hope they’re the same exact tent). There’s an option to choose which seller to buy from but Amazon’s going to protect your purchase regardless. Hope everything works out brotha!
I got this exact same tent a few weeks ago and I have absolutely loved it so far! I have a Yakima roof box on top of the crossbars on the tent with some other things in there as well as a Mountain bike on those crossbars as well. So far it has been an amazing purchase
Sweet! Might try and add a box on there as well. RTTs are a bit spendy, but man this tent is so worth it comparatively!
That is awesome and I was wondering if you hold back on the weight of the roof box? If possible, can you post a photo of the roof box on top of the tent? Thanks
Appreciate the review. You covered everything, and I'll be looking into one. Looking forward to seeing more videos.
I've had mine since March and a dozen nights camping. Solid product, no issues at all. So easy to set-up and take down, done easily by one person. Great service from factory.
Awesome video! Loved the review, background music, and B-roll!
Thanks for the review. I'm in the market for a RTT, and I will definitely be keeping this one in mind.
Right on man great production. I’ve been combing the market to build my 4Runner and I’ll have to check out this option.
appreciate the review bro! I just ordered one.
Thanks for your review. 😀
Got mine coming this week not looking forward to how heavy it is lol but it does look nice! NEW SUB BUDDY!
Great review! Thank you.
Dude! Naturnest needs to hire you onto the sales team!
Thanks for the video! Mine should be here next week! I’ll see how the mounting goes on the front runner rack.
Shouldn’t be too bad. Front runner racks have a lot more room to reach the brackets. Also, you can use the sunroof as well to get the front brackets on if you have one.
I’ll be sursprising my girlfriend with this tent for Christmas. Thank you for this video!
I have a similar style rack on my Bronco and I have been looking for mounting options. The Front Runner style rack in particular, there is a quick release option that functions a riser, raising the height of the tent to give clearance between the rack and the tent. This is an interesting option and similar (non quick release risers) that are available in 1” or 2” heights seem like additional options to make mounting the tent easier. Thanks for the content. 🙏🏼✌🏼
Great video!
I have the same. Its great for the price. Definitely the same, close to same as the expensive name brand out there that cost $3k plus! 🙌
we purchased this from Amazon after watching it. unfortunately, we got scammed. glad Amazon was able to return our money back. we ended up buying the same tent but different brand in Canada and it was 200 dollar more. I must say. they are pretty well built.
Sorry to hear that man.. the original seller said their listing got hijacked in their question section. I just linked the same tent from a different seller now. They are definitely well built.
What tent did you go with? These aren't in stock anywhere anymore and I'm in Canada!
The side windows have no rain fly. Have you had any water leaks?
Hey there... thanks for the great review. It was really thoughtful and helpful. Quick question: when raining while camping, how well did the inside of the tent stay dry? I don't see obvious rain protection but may have missed it (protection from the rain coming in the windows / waterproof surfaces)? thanks again.
Just went on a week long trip in Banff which was raining a handful of days. The awning material was more water resistant, but water will definitely cause the sidewalls to become wet. Could benefit from a waterproof treatment though. Dries quick, but wasn’t ideal for run and gun camping like we were doing.
Hi, Thanks for the video. What cross rails have to installed on the vehicle. I saw the tent is 170lbs, I could not find cross rails for my chevy Tahoe thats rated for 170lb.
Thank you for the video. Read the comment on mounting your awning with Ironman mounts. I have the prinsu mount which sticks up about an inch. Curious how thick this tents mounting rails are and whether they will clear my prinsu mounts? Also have a 4Runner and will need this tent to overhang Prinsu rack by a couple of inches.
i bought this couple days a go,and i’ve notice i got whistles noice when i drive 60mph up
I have a GFC on my Tacoma, but I used to have a 4Runner. Seems like a good tent, the cost makes it seem like a worthy investment. You mentioned that if you take care of it , it would last and treat the zippers gently.
GFC is by far superior but a little spendy for my taste, so I’m jealous of course!
Thank you so much !!!❤ I just got my roof top tent . Thay gave me the new upgraded tent with all the bells and swissels . Thay said a week to get but it took 3 weeks before it arrived . payed $1400 after tax. As I said Thank you🎉
Curious what your thoughts are after having had this tent for a while, is it still waterproof etc… thanks
How do you attach the poles to prop up the tent shade?
Nice tent
Getting mine this week! Thank you for the review. I do have one question. Does the ladder store inside the tent?
The ladder comes inside the tent, and stores easily without an issue inside of it. It’s a tight squeeze but I’m able to leave my unrolled sleeping bags + ladder up there.
Hey thanks for the vid. Just wanna ask your roof rack you used. Do you mind send a link. Thank you
Thanks for the review. I’m pretty sure I’m getting this tent. It doesn’t appear to have any solid coverings for the side windows? Is that true? I wouldn’t think it would be good in the rain?
It has a mesh window, and another window to cover the mesh. As far as an awning, this one only covers the large opening towards the back of the vehicle.
How did you mount the awning to the side?
I just bought one off of Amazon today
What's the dynamic weight of the tent? Any help appreciated - thanks!
I am ordering this tent next month. I am now thinking I should have it shipped to my work so i can use a forklift to put it on the bed rack of my F150...
BRUTAL!! The tent in Canada is $4000!!!
I hate how things always have such huge price disparity in Canada.
Make a friend in the states and have it shipped there and go pick it up? Some one that lives near the border. Just mount it before the trip back in case they try and tax you.
How is the flapping in the wind??
This is a super great deal. Let me tell you why. It looks like it's made by the same manufacturer that the other big name companies slap their name plates on - e.g., Roofnest. This one in particular looks almost exactly like a Roofnest Falcon, which I own and which cost me way more than this. Not long after I got my Roofnest Falcon (which was shipped to me in a wooden crate from China) I quickly realized that many of these companies must be contracting with the same Chinese manufacturer. I'm not saying that there are any quality issues - mine was fine. I'm just saying that you should look around and keep your eyes open for deals like this one which is being sold under a lesser known name...
💯💯
Hey man! I have this same roof top tent and love it so far ! You’re one of the reasons I got it . I just installed yesterday which took forever but got it done with a buddy. Do you know if it’s normal that I can hear some rattling when going over small bumps?? Almost as if the shocks are making noise on the roof top tent itself
I would make sure the nuts are tight. With RTT you will notice the nuts will start to loosen with time.
What kind of awning you have?any link?thanks
Awesome review. I'm interested to know how it does in the rain. Additionally, do you have an IG? Would like to see more angles of it on the 4R/how far it sticks over the sides of the rack. Thanks!
Great video! Do you mind telling me which roof rack you went with? And how tall your setup is overall? I want the same exact setup but my garage entry is 83”. I’m leveled on 33’s. 2023 TRD Pro
I have an alphafoxtrot rack (similar to prinsu) and it’s discontinued. I have 275s, and a 2.75 lift. It is right under 84 inches with the included crossbars. I know this because I brushed against a parking garage ceiling 😭 I think you should be good but very tight without crossbars.
What are the measurements on the out side when close? 🤔🧐
It was really nice informational vdo , I have question about that cross bar on top of tent ,is it enough strong to load 2 kayak around 80lb weight?
Thanks
its 90lb, you will be fine
Sweet tent for the price. Got a question though. How are you able to put a clickable link in your description? I'm having problems doing that on my channel.
Might just be the formatting of your link? I just copied it from Amazon so I’m not entirely sure.
How has it held up now 11 months later ?
Great review. I have the same tent and love it so far. What type of mounts did you use to mount your awning?? Maybe its me but i am struggling to find the proper mounting brackets.
Would love to know this as well. I have a NAPA awning.
He is only using one bolt on each mount. Which seems sketchy to me honestly.
@@hupo I drilled an additional hole onto the iron man mounts so there are two bolts holding each mount on the channel. I did this a week after making the video. Never ran into any issues with one, it was very solid but didn’t want to chance it.
@@johnscontent good to know. I'll do the same.
Hey man is this 4 season? Thick walls?
Is it easy to close?
How was the process of mounting to your roof rack? I am confuesed on how it will mount up with no access underneath
It's tight on these things. A long ratcheting wrench is a good purchase for these.
It was difficult with a low profile prinsu-style rack like mine. I took off two cross bars on my rack, measured the distance between the two, and installed the tent onto the removed cross bars. After that, install the tent/crossbars onto the rack.
This hard shell tent looks so amazing!! I really want this for my Jeep wrangler! 😍 o|||||||o 🖤 Would also probably put some solar panels on there. Great review! 👌🏻😊
I want to attach one to the top of a box trailer. Do you think this will work ?
If it has two bars you can attach it to that holds x amount of weight
❤
Does the hottie come with it?
😀👍👍

Hydraulic system? There is nothing hydraulic in it.
Your latches are upside down😂
$1600 is not a budget, Top Heavy Tents are a waste of money, get a Gazzell ground tent $300 and sets up in 90 seconds
