Alvantor Pop Up Bubble Tent - Large Oversize Weather Proof Pod - Cold Protection Camping Tent - Winter Tent Beige

We bought this top use in our yard during cooler days. It stays very warm as long as you have some sun. We use a small electrical heater to keep it warm on overcast days. We have only used it when the temperature has dropped to the low 40s but it was in the 70s inside with sun.Setup was easy. Just be aware of the fact that when this is untied from the storage bag and pops open, it is a sudden and strong force. They give warning but I didn’t really pay attention. We have it staked down on our patio and it gets almost daily use.To keep the doors open for ventilation, they must be rolled upwards and fastened with toggle straps. The straps are not long enough for this and I had to add some bungee cord to make it easy. It can also be difficult to zip after opening. Those are my only complaints. There was a problem with the main entry zipper and it was quickly resolved by customer service.This has withstood a week of strong winds and heavy rains with hail mixed in. There has been no problem at all, but I do have it completely and securely tied down.Ours is a 12’ model and the interior is pretty roomy. We can comfortably fit four people with chairs and side tables. You could fit more but it would start to become crowded.I would buy this again, and recommend it for outdoor entertaining. As long as it is properly fastened down, it should last for a while.

We decided to do an intimate marriage ceremony in our backyard. This bubble tent was the perfect addition to that vision! It is easy to set up and put away. I don’t plan on using this regularly. I plan to use it for like date nights, special events, etc.. I think it’ll hold up well for what I want it for. I’m not sure that if I used it every day or left it outside that it would last long. I take it down after and store it away after every use. For me, it’s perfect.

Do not buy the Alvanator!!I have it and it’s junk. It Came ripped in multiple spots right out of the box. Then when I put it up, the zipper ripped on day 2. Then the ropes that are used to anchor it ripped right off the tent. They give you little flimsy bags that they want you to fill with sand to help weight it down from the wind. The bags don’t help. The anchors don’t stay. If there is any wind over 10 mph, the product does not do well. It has blown over twice in the 10 days I have it and 3 Of the anchor ropes of have totally ripped off the tent.They give you poles to keep the top up, but they don’t fit properly and seem to cave in. I called and the customer support told me to tie the poles with a shoe lace or a ribbon to help keep them sturdy! She said many people called to complain, but tying helps. This is a failed product.After it fel the 2nd time and the anchors ripped, I called and the company directly and no questions asked they sent me another one free of charge. They said I didn’t have to send the old one back as shipping was too much. I just needed to text them pictures of the rips. I texted pictures. They sent me a new one and it came out of the box with rips again. It should be a glaring warning that they didn’t even want the old one back, and sent me a new one for free. Really Cheap product.This thing is junk. It would be great if it worked and was built well and held up in the wind and didn’t rip, but it doesn’t, so it’s junk.I have never reviewed a product in my life. If you are in a corona pandemic, like me, and you are thinking of ways to add some outdoor space for the kids to play when it’s cold or raining, then keep looking, as this Alvanator sucks.The Alvanator totally sucks and will fall over in the wind and will rip and tear.Fair warning. Do not buy the Alvanator.

Wow! We’ve had some heavy winds this year with some speeds reaching up to 70mph. I have this thing anchored down and have some sandbags inside to weight it down as well. With these heavy winds, this thing did not move. Well, it did blow with the wind but it stayed in place with minor wear and tear (shown in pictures). I set this up over my hot tub for winter use and it was very successful at helping maintain water temperature during the day as well as night. Even on those cold 20s-30° nights, this helped the water temp stay between 92-97 during use.As far as the tears go, I’ll probably patch themWith flex seal and see how long that holds. But I will buy another one when needed. I can’t give this a big smooth reviews. I’m thoroughly impressed with it.
