Make time for the outdoors
Blackout sleeping space, a separate front living area and a 200 cm peak height give you room to organise family camp. The 15 kg packed weight keeps transport manageable.
Blackout sleeping fabric reduces early sunlight and campsite lighting. Close the bedroom doors when it is time to settle in, and keep the tent ventilated as directed.
Use the front room for bags, changing and shared space. Mesh panels and side windows help you adjust airflow while keeping insects out.
Colour-coded poles help you follow the pitching sequence. The instructions stay sewn into the carry bag, ready when it is time to set up or pack away.

Handy size and easy to put up.
We purchased the Discovery 4FEV Blackout tent in the Labour Day sale last year and used it for the first time over the Kirihimete/ NY break. We were super impressed — it comfortably fit our family of four (two adults and two primary-aged kids). The larger room worked well for sleeping, with the smaller entryway used as a living space.
The quality is excellent, with great airflow thanks to the large windows. The high roof makes it easy to stand and move around, and the blackout feature is a real game changer. It was also easy to set up. An ideal tent for families with younger kids, while those with teens may want their own space. We’re very happy customers and have just purchased the outdoor shelter to go with it!
Is amazing! We love it we are a family of 4 and we all fit perfectly with space and with young children we could all sleep in because of the dark room features :) stood up to Nz weather and easy to put up its the best tent we've had to date.
The 4FEV was a great size for our family of 3 + dog and the blackout feature was nice for getting our toddler to bed before dark and sleeping in on lazy summer mornings.
Purchased this tent and went camping over in the West Coast. Simple to erect and pack up. Plenty of room. Great design. No concerns during wet weather. I would highly recommend this tent.
