"Highly recommend the Gazelle T4, I've been using it for ~5 years now and it's holding up great."
"Durability - have had 0 issues. 2 years, quit a bit of camping in hot and cold (well, down to 30)."
"I have been in severe thunderstorms in the Outer Banks of NC and snow storms in Utah in the T4. The tent has always kept us safe, comfortable, and dry."

"First year I owned it, I was at a sporting event and a massive storm rolled through. Tons of thunder, lightning, and torrential rain and came back to a bone dry tent at 1am. ... Even this year for that same even, lots of rain one day but tent stayed dry and the only water that was inside was from me going in and out."

"The footprint of the floor is a square for the T4 hub tent, so you should find the available space easy to work with, even with mattress. ... We have the T4 plus, which is just two squares with a room divider. We use cots and there is room for 5 and the dogs."
"those style of tents will have the highest headroom and usable space."

"The screen room is great for extra gear you don’t want to leave out, or to just have a place to relax during a downpour."
"We use one room for sleeping, 2 adults and a kid. The other room for stuff, chairs if it’s bad weather, etc."
"not 4 sided. That way you can setup a table in the middle and still get around, or set up multiple tables on the walls with tons of room."

"traveling with it is painful. ... The pack size is huge and heavy."
"it is HUGE when folded down for storage transport ... You need to have a large SUV or a roof rack to transport this thing."
"The biggest problem with it is that it’s huge when it’s broken down you basically need to put it on your roof rack."

"Constantly leaks"
"So if it's heavy rain, you do have to ensure your windows and doors are zipped fully to prevent water from intruding."
"First, in super heavy downpour (more than an inch per hour) it would soak through around the hubs and also where the mesh bags are sewn into the sides. ... The first time there was a dribble of water from the hub seams I had to sop up with an extra t-shirt. After seam seaming it was damp to the touch but not dripping."

"But for a tent that caters to taller folks, the door sucks for taller folks... at 6'1" i'm always tripping getting in and out of it."
"My only gripe is that I will bust my butt on the triangle doors EVERY SINGLE TIME."
"The triangular doors takes some getting used to"
I have a Gazelle T4 Plus. It’s the best tent I’ve ever had.
r/camping • Recommendation for Instant Cabin style tent, 2025 ->I have a Gazelle T4 plus. It’s amazing. A two room pop up tent. They also make other sizes. Sets up in minutes. And you can stand up in it, great for dogs and wives.
r/camping • Any reason not to get a bigger tent. ->I have a T4+ and love it. I’ve only used it a handful of times so far. I’ve been in it during a very windy thunderstorm and it held up remarkably. The screen room is great for extra gear you don’t want to leave out, or to just have a place to relax during a downpour.
r/camping • Pop Up Tent Question ->I have a T4 plus. I’ve taken mine to the outer banks (windy) about 5 times and it’s been rock solid, including last time when a cold front came through and we were getting 30mph gusts. I’ve camped in rain about 3 or 4 times otherwise. I do guy out the hubs but nothing special or time consuming and have never had a hub collapse. Rain fly has been tested and works well with no water intrusion in light to moderate rains/sprinkle. Have not had it in a thunderstorm. I think ventilation would be relatively poor if you had to close all of the vents for a heavy rain as the design relies on top ventilation due to design. I think wedging pool noodles at the top, underneath the rain fly over the top netting would help airflow. Haven’t had any quality related issues. It’s huge and heavy-but all hub tents are huge and the bag has a nice shoulder strap. Strongly recommend the overland edition for the stakes and tarp.
r/camping • Are Gazelle Tents worth it? ->Yea, the plus has a much bigger rain fly, awsome tent.
r/camping • Gazelle t4 overland ->I've been using the T-4 Plus for the last 30 or so trips and have had zero issues with it. It's held up to 50 MPH winds and torrential rain. The doorways and bathtub style floor actually do help with bugs a bit since the entry's not \*on\* the ground. I think you'd have to be a pretty determined bug to get in through the velcro if you closed it up correctly. I'd bet your invader came in through the door or on your person. Anyways, best of luck.
r/camping • Buyer Beware Gazelle T4 Overland Edition Tent ->It's pretty easy to reseal the floor if you take it out. There are little red tabs that help you line it up correctly.
r/camping • Buyer Beware Gazelle T4 Overland Edition Tent ->I have a Gazelle T4, T4+, and gazebo. Gazelle makes some of the highest quality products that can stop be found. The quality of material cannot really be found anywhere else on a retail tent. I have been in severe thunderstorms in the Outer Banks of NC and snow storms in Utah in the T4. The tent has always kept us safe, comfortable, and dry. I’ve owned the T4 for five years. If you want to buy something and keep it and have the room for the monster bag, you will always appreciate the Gazelle.

r/camping • Timber Ridge instant pop up hub vs Gazelle T4? ->https://preview.redd.it/lonhowt0plne1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=335f4215cd1ffa7c9be7d777690142c3ad7253b5 My Gazelle has been a go-to for the speed of setup and sturdiness in wind. Well worth it. Pretty large tote, and heavy. Not for packing distances.
r/camping • Recommendation for Instant Cabin style tent, 2025 ->Love my gazelle gear. I have the T4 plus and the gazebo. Highly recommend. https://preview.redd.it/435mp8df88ge1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=647e98fa68220878af6fcc87227a384f3c784623
r/camping • Pop Up Tent Question ->I have the T4 plus and have enjoyed it. The rain fly is much better. I gravitate to my White Duck canvas tent if I’m car camping though. Breathable and better suited for all seasons.
r/camping • Gazelle T4 Hub Tent?? ->Honestly, not often these days. We aim for cold weather camping so we can use the stove. The Gazelle has become our loaner that we set up our friends and family with. My beef with nearly all nylon tents is how they collect condensation. I’ve had 5 people and 2 dogs in the Gazelle. All of that breathing made the inside pretty wet.
r/camping • Gazelle T4 Hub Tent?? ->Gazelle T4 Plus is an instant pop up tent that is two rooms. I’ve had a family of 5 in it with 2 dogs just fine. It has a lot of thoughtful features. Sets up in under 2 minutes and folds up just about as fast. I also have a canvas bell tent that I use more often these days because I like winter camping. https://preview.redd.it/zhsi0wmbxlhe1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=39d80b8eb8cf6ed09d038240abb661dc4d9c8efc
r/camping • Family tent recommendations ->I've got the T4+ Overland and can recommend. So far we've used it on about a dozen nights with a 7-person family, and it's lived up to the marketing. The big T-shaped stakes that come with the overland are nice but the six L-shaped takes that come with the the footprint suck.
r/camping • Best hub tents? "Pop up/instant" options worth researching similar to gazelle? ->I have the gazelle t4+. Easy to set up, amazing tent. We use one room for sleeping, 2 adults and a kid. The other room for stuff, chairs if it’s bad weather, etc. It’s held up to strong winds, though i guyed it out enthusiastically But… traveling with it is painful. The pack size is huge and heavy.
