Quest Shelter MK3 Carp Fishing Bivvy Overnight 1 Man Brolly 2 Tent

I've now had this day shelter for a year and it's been a game changer. After using a brolly with removable pole for years I found it frustrating to set up, messing around with storm poles and trying to get it secure and stable and then still not being adequately sheltered due to open sides. I set this shelter up whatever the weather because it's easy! Spread the shelter on the ground and orientate the door as needed. Assemble the 2 pre fitted elasticated poles that form the back/roof support and locate the ends into the fixings giving the shelter rigidity and shape. Next assemble the long pole the runs from side to side. Insert this into the side sleeve, under the back/roof poles and into the sleeve the opposite side. Push the poles rather than pulling to avoid them coming apart. Insert the ends into the attachment points and the structure supports itself. Finally peg down. After setting up once you'll be able to do this in 5mins. I'm over 6' and there's loads of headroom and room for all my carp gear. It's not designed for bed chairs really, it's a day shelter. The mesh window is great in summer for ventilation and the sides with windows can be rolled back when it's hot so the shelters open fronted. Alternatively they're great in rain and windy weather. I rarely use the door but it's handy for shading you from the sun. I've used the shelter in heavy rain and it was waterproof and very stable. Guy ropes are provided but I haven't needed them. The inclusion of a groundsheet is fantastic considering the great price of the setup. The pegs provided are adequate but I upgraded to more heavy duty ones. I'm really surprised how this shelter has grown on me. It's the first thing I set up now on the bank because I know once it's up all my gear fits inside and it doesn't matter what the weather does. I would buy again without question.

Great little bivvy, withstood unbelievable storms during its first few days and didn’t budge, had a tiny tiny amount of water come through on the ground sheet but it wasn’t on even ground to be fair! Your not fitting a bed in it but a small low chair is fine and room for a bag or 2! I did do 2 nights in it and it kept me snug and dry but I’m happy sleeping on a chair as long as I can stretch my legs out! For the money I can’t fault it!

You get what you pay for. I cannot fault the delivery and follow up emails from this company. It was delivered ahead of schedule and no issues with putting it up. BUT if you’re thinking of using this on a windy day forget it it’s not strong enough and it is not fit for that purpose. If you want a shelter from the sun or just somewhere to relax in on a normal day then this is fine but it’s not for all round use. I won’t use it much but thats not saying it’s a bad product when it’s priced to its purpose.

I am 5'10 tall and I can't quiet lay down in it so you won't get a bed in really.Other than this it's a really good shelter. I've used it in heavy wind and rain and it's been good as gold. It's really good indeed. It takes about 5 mins to set up and about 5-10 mins to take down, it's really easy when you see the online video.This is a good item and priced really well, last night it kept me out of the wind during a 24 hour run, 6 carp in as well.

Great product, but the URL takes you to a different video for another tent!!!!

Brilliant piece of kit,only took 5 minutes to put up, just join the shorter poles that are already threaded through the sleeves,next join the longer pole together and thread through the sleeves and put ends into cups,then the shorter ones,and it's up. Then just attach the groundsheet with the toggles and peg down. Plenty of room for two chairs and kit,or my airbed just about fits with the door shut,but I usually have it open anyway,so not an issue. Packs down to 60 cm X 15 cm.

Very disappointed with this product. I found it difficult to erect.

The shelter was delivered on time and I was contacted by the company to keep me informed of the delivery.etc.It arrived on time and no issues arose. Put it together by following a YouTube clip and I would definitely recommend practising this a few times. When I used it there was no wind and I would think that may be tricky to put it up in those conditions. However that is my only concern, the tent is large with plenty of space and most importantly waterproof. I did get to fully test that. Would recommend it to anyone, just practice at putting it up, before you need it for real.
