Tan Add-A-Cabana

I ordered a Tan colored cover and received a black one instead. Not my preference, but more of a hassle to send back and request my original purchase.-The product itself is as advertised, though it doesn't perfectly fit my Jeep Renegade which is a smaller, sub-compact SUV.-The cost is a bit steep given that no weights or stakes are provided for the base, meaning a small breeze will push the cover up against the SUV and expose whatever is underneath, it's an easy fix but one would expect a full kit for the price.-The material appears to be of good quality and there's plenty of it for large vehicles. It can be a pain to fold, but the storage bag provided is big enough for a hasty stuffing.-l'll provide an update in the future dependant on the durability.

We put a bed in our van and camp all summer but there's no room for changing our clothes. This is the perfect solution and affords us a lot more room. I thought about sewing a similar design but after seeing how much material is used, this actually comes out cheaper and saves all that work. The magnets are very strong so this doesn't slip off the car.Also, great customer service!This is an update as we retired our Astro Van and bought a Mercedes Metris passenger van in 2017 then camped all summer in it.I must say, this works even better on our Metris because we have one very large rear gate and with this open, it gives us lots of room to fit our cabana over. Whether we're camping or surfing, we gets tons of people asking where we got it. This has enlarged our usable space for camping even more. What a great deal for this very cheap price. The quality is excellent and we hope to continue using it for years to come.

This "tent" is a nearly perfect on my 2002 Astro Van (with the lift gate design). I used additional magnets and small spring clamps to create a tight fit. I am planning to make some hold-downs for the bottom edge rather than resort to tent stakes.The tent will not keep out flying insects, but it will keep out the rain. The light fabric and lack of supporting structure make it vulnerable to strong winds.Application of sewing machine skills could readily turn this tent into a custom fit cover, and probably mosquito netting could be added. It is translucent, so don't expect it to black out sunlight.The same tent in a heavier fabric would be a major improvement with a correspondingly heavier price.

Ordered it on a Saturday, got shipping notification on Sunday and received it on Wednesday! Took me only a couple mins to put it up. Couldn't fold it as nicely as when I received it but still fits in the storage bag that comes with it.I dive (scuba) every weekend. Nice to have a personal dressing room instead of changing in public restroom. On raining days, It keeps me dry while putting on (and taking off) drysuit which is difficult to do inside of the vehicle. Not sure how others transport it when wet but I have buckets for wet gear anyway.

I am 70 and moved to a beautiful area with many camping options. I have a mini van and this is my favorite accessory. It is well made. Super easy to install (and take down and pack away.). I keep it in my car at all times and is a hit everywhere I go. My grandkids soccer team love it. Wonderful changing station after games. GREAT PRODUCT SO FAR. Arrived earlier than expected too.

Love this!I used this to convert my Kia Soul to a "tent" (too old to sleep on the ground anymore). It is a great idea and very well made. It would be nice to add eyelets or grommets on the bottom to allow for tying to a tarp.

I now own two of these. I used it on my 2005 Ford Freestar Van when I used it as a camper. Then I bought a small Teardrop Trekker Travel Trailer. It has a back hatch on it as well in which the kitchen is located. To my delight I am able to use my Cabana on it as well!! It gives me weather protection and shade when I "in the kitchen."

Add-A-Cabana's a great idea, but unless you have a roof rack and an all-metal body, it's about useless. I thought maybe using a few AIRHEAD Suction Cup Tie Downs to make it work. Not going to happen. They only work with the 2 roof rack straps and without any loops or grommets on the sides along with the magnets, there's no place to attach the AIRHEAD. I suppose I could get 2-4 tarp clips for the sides, but at this point, why bother?
