What are some compaints you have about your camping tent?
I am taking a marketing class, and we are a new tent manufacturer selling our product to Academy. One of the parts of our project is to list OUR competitive advantage over other tent manufacturers. So if you have any complaints about your camping tent, it’ll give our group some ideas.
Thanks!
I have a new tent that sleeps 7 that I mostly like, but I have a few complaints.
1) It requires more than 1 person to set it up
2) It has great ventilation with vents at the top of the tent, but because of those vents, the fly is the only protection from rain. I have not had it in a rain storm yet, but even with the fly, I would be worried about leaking under the fly with rain coupled with a heavy side wind. My solution would be to keep the vents(really makes the tent less musty) but have some ability to cover them in the event of a storm.
3) I wish it came with a rolling case like some of the other tents that I compared against. It would be nice to have one rolling carrying case to put the tent, pole bags into.
4) The stakes are cheap plastic. I wish they were better quality.
5) I wish my tent had a “foyer” . One of those pre-entrance ways that are protected by rain but you can leave your shoes.
I chose this tent for a few reasons that might be pertinent to your study
1) The floor thickness and quality was above that of other tents in its price range.
2) There are only 2 poles for the tent and 2 for the fly (actually about 12 poles but they are connected by wire running through them which is important to me.
3) The zipper on the main door was well made and looked like it would hold up better than some others.
4) Convenience pouches for holding items were built into the interior.
