I had been researching RTTs for a while when I cam across the ArcWonder RTT. I was impressed with the specifications and features (cargo bars, solar panel, integrated rain fly, shoe bags, ladder, all aluminum construction). With all of the features plus including the cost of the included cargo bars and solar panel (with included controller) it is actually one of the cheapest RTTs of it's feature set on Amazon. Such a great value versus price! Based on all those details I decided to finally order a RTT and I have not been disappointed. The RTT was shipped VERY fast and well protected in a substantial crate. I had to fabricate connection hardware due to the cargo bed rack on my truck being more substantial than most racks (was of larger dimensions than the connection hardware that comes with the tent: not the manufacturer's fault), but the tent was still very easy to install (lifting still requires 2 people). For how well built it is the tent is still very lightweight and at only 7 inches thick when closed it is such a low profile (looks way better than most RTTs and WAY less wind resistance at higher speeds). Overall the size is no larger than it needs to be to serve as a tent with enough sleeping space for two average sized people. The cargo bars and solar panel were super easy to install. The power provided by the solar panel easily charged my battery setup quickly (and there is actually plenty of remaining mounting space on top of the tent for an additional solar panel or cargo bars, if you choose). The tent is very comfortable (although the sleeping pad is a bit thin due to the slim nature of the closed tent), but I use an extra memory foam mattress (due much more to my body being over half a century in age than the comfort of the included sleeping pad ;) ). I've used the tent a couple times now and have zero issues opening or closing it (just be patient and close it slowly and make sure the flaps and rain fly are fully inside tent: this isn't a flaw with the design, but an good example of how excellent the build quality is and how tight the tolerances are in its construction). The tent has been through several intense rainstorms at highway speeds as well as deployed for camping in heavy rain. No water intrusion to speak of either closed or when deployed. And if you are an experienced camper you will know that you will get some few droplets of water here and there when the wind whips up or if you come into the tent with wet clothes. Not sure if the material used for the tent is antimicrobial/antifungal, but no sign of mold yet anywhere in the tent. VERY quick and easy deployment and stowage. Overall: -HIGHLY functional -VERY high build quality -EXCEPTIONAL value of included accessories -OUTSTANDING value overall I am VERY pleased with the purchase and capability of the tent. It certainly beats the stuffings out of a traditional tent, getting to the campground/site late, after dark and trying to fumble around and set up (often in the rain).

Tent is amazing for the price, haven’t gotten the solar panel set up yet, ladder came with a broken hinge that I was unable to get resolved but have been figuring it out and looking into alternative ladders as a replacement, overall I’m very satisfied for the cost compared to some other brands I was considering, esp as an entry into the RTT market and see if it was something my wife and I’d enjoy and actually use, so far we’ve used it for about a month since getting in January with a road trip to Cali down the PCH and back on Route 66 a couple nights in Missouri’s camping and then Arches national park and Zion on the way back to California for work where we’ve done Salton sea and will be doing some other places coming up. Highly recommend zipper lubricant and some zipper ties to make them easier to pull and grab.

Solid RTT for the price. I’ve used it for two trips so far and here is what I like and what could be improved: Pros: - Solidly made. Does not feel cheap. - Easy assembly, ships in a solid box, and easy setup once it is on the roof. - Easily broke down. - Very dark inside, even in the morning you can’t see the sun. Areas for improvement: - Add a thicker/ better mattress, maybe a 3” mattress and a condensation mat underneath. - Consider adding a port hole to connect a 3” heater/AC hose for easy all-weather use. Overall, the RTT is a great tent and well made. I would recommend it to friends and family. Follow-up review: Fantastic after sale service. I had an issue with the solar panel, and the vendor sent me a new one hassle free. 100% recommend this RTT.

Good quality roof tent. Camped in heavy rain with no water intrusion. There is an additional vent over the rear/main entrance that is not shown in product photos, this would be good to know if anyone plans to use propane or butane heater in tent. I like that ladder can be positioned at any entrance. The solar panel is ok. It charges my bluetti 700w power station throughout the day but I do not get the advertised 218 watt output even in optimal sunlight. You’ll need an additional pad for the mattress as it is not that comfortable to sleep on. Don’t get one too thick or it won’t close. I use an inflatable camp pad that I do not store inside tent when closed. I can’t even store pillows in tent but I don’t mind. I prefer to have a slimmer tent profile when in closed position The lights stopped working about 3 months after purchase. The seller was very responsive in sending me replacement lights. One thing to note is there is only 1 light setting which I love. I just need to quickly turn on and off the lights without cycling through several colors of lights before going into off setting. Several storage pockets on both sides of interior tent as well as ceiling making it easy to stay organized Would be nice if the tent had a 3” diesel heater port but I can’t complain because the price is good The ladder does not have angled steps so going up and down barefoot is somewhat uncomfortable. The built in rain fly is more important than you would think. Camping in heavy rain makes it pleasant to have the doors open without water intrusion. During daylight hours , it’s pitch black in tent when all windows and vents are closed. Makes it nice to sleep in

Great quality and shipped in wooden crate. Came with no issues. Tent is built very well and glad I settled on this one. There's another version that has insulation layers that are removable so keep that in mind if you will be in colder climates. Wish I saw that one sooner. Very easy to install and takes seconds to open and close. Just make sure to tuck the sides and front in when closing. Black out fabric which is a plus!
