T4 Plus Hub Tent Overland Edition

Yes they are legit. We have had a T4+ for close to 5 years now.

I will second Gazelle. To clarify, the T8 has been discontinued, but there is the T4Pus/tandem that gives you a screen room. My wife and I overland with the T4Plus and love it. It's great having the extra room, especially if the weather turns nasty.

Gazelle tents are easy to set up and are indestructible. I (64M) have had a T4 Plus for years

I currently have a Gazelle T4 Overland, and I’m really happy with it. Packed up it’s bizarrely huge, but I love how easy it is to set up; it goes up in only a couple of minutes. I’d like to go larger however, and I’m looking at the Gazelle T8. My priorities are interior space and ease of setup. The T4 has been great in wind. I live in the southwest, so rain and snow aren’t a huge issue, especially since if the weather is bad I’ll just stay home. So what’s everyone’s favorite large tent that falls into this category? I’m ok spending about $3-600. If there’s a better option than the T8 I’m all ears. Edit: I’m also looking into the Gazelle T4 Plus which has the same footprint as the T8 but with a screened in room that is sealable for the same price. Edit 2: thanks so much for everyone’s input! This has been a really fun discussion and I love this group. I’ve decided to go with the Gazelle T4 Plus. It arrives on Tuesday, just before my trip to the Grand Canyon with my kid! Edit 3: tries the T4 Plus. It was amazing when set up, and rock solid. The problem is that it’s so heavy and cumbersome, you run the risk of damage the material just moving it around and trying to pack it up, which is really an ordeal. I wound up going with the Core 9. Not as solid as the Gazelle, but much lighter and easier to set up, take down and move around for one person.

I have and they definitely were a contender, but I love the interior space of a gazelle tent. It’s basically a big globe so you’re not bumping into the walls, and there are plenty of places to hang your stuff throughout. It’s crazy easy to set up. Seriously, less than two minutes. I’ve camped in it in 40 mph winds and it barely moves.

I got a Gazelle T4 plus and I’m loving it. It’s heavy, and durable, but it’s like an instant apartment at the camp site. Can’t say enough good things about the Gazelle brand.

The T4 plus is heavy. But if you’re alright with lugging it around, it’s great! Compared to a pole set up Coleman tent I have it takes half the time but is twice the size. There’s plenty of set up and take down videos on YouTube for all the Gazelle brand tents. They like to say it takes 90 seconds. But, real world, it takes me around 10 minutes by myself. You just pop out the sides and put the rain fly on top.

I also should add that the bag it comes in is super roomy! It fits inside with extra room to spare. I keep two carpets and a ground tarp in the bag along with the tent.

We have the T4 plus, two adults, two dogs. It's perfect for us. I like the flexibility of the screen room, airflow, and view. It's our living room when it's raining. Keeps gear out of the "bedroom." More room for dogs. Yeah, it's big and heavy, but like you already know, Gazelle makes a good tent. We like the headroom and easy setup, too.

We have the T4+, too-2 adults, and 2 dogs. It's heavy and huge but so easy to set up and incredibly comfortable for us. We also like that the plus part means we have a space to hang out in if it rains and don't need to worry about a tarp all the time. Some small things are annoying like the velcro at the entry, but I'm still very happy with my purchase.

I do have the t4+ which is nice as it as the nice big open door. Very easy to set up and tear down. About the only times it takes longer is when you have to steal out all the guy lines on windy days. But yes it is big and bulky and can be hard to move around. Took it on a road trip from WI to Utah and used a roof top carrier to haul it with.

Gazell has some different tents that are nice, but can take up a bit of space depending on how you pack it in your vehicle. I have the T4+, so you do have a two rooms in it. In some ways it can be an easily converted to a 4 season tent if you had a good heat source for it.

It is a hub style tent, made by the same company as Eskimo ice shelters. The roof on the gazelle is mesh, but has a rain fly that would go down the full side. When it does get colder people have put moving blankets or a heavier reflective emergency blanket on top of the tent but under the rain fly. From there a propane heater or diesel heater would be enough to keep it warm. I’m sure there would be ways you could rig up a wood burning stove in there. Their newest version is already set up for 4 seasons with replaceable window inserts with the heat shield for the smoke stack. They also have some that would be more hexagon shape vs square / rectangular.

I have a gazelle tent which is bulky but also nice. I have also looked at the 10x10 ez up canopy tents with side walls or inserts. I know they make some that are 10x15 or 10x20 with side walls. May not be as fully enclosed as some other tents, but gives you plenty of room.

I have the T4 plus and love it with one exception. A full-size air mattress does not quite fit with the fixed room divider. Last trip we took and attempted to use two complete sets, one in each room, and it was very tight. As a compromise, we are moving everyone to a large cot and getting the kids bunkbed-style cots. But overall, we love the tent, great build quality ect.. It would be amazing if it was just 14"-24" bigger in each room. There is a new model but I dont think its much larger

Do you have any other requirements, and how will this be used? If you're mostly overlanding or car camping, the best value for the money is a Gazzel Hub tent, but there are downsides, like its weight and size. But I love the fact that I can order replacement parts, including the detachable floor panel.
