What a great bit of kit! We looked at various tents before deciding on the Escapade 4X4. The build quality is excellent, the materials feel robust and the operation is easy and intuitive. The added bonus is the way it fits with the other products in the range. We bought the roof rack that is designed for our vehicle, tent, 270 degree awning and annexe and they work together flawlessly.

Im extremely pleased with my set up from Escapade4x4 from the ordering online to the fitting appointment and return visit for the 270 awning add on. The staff are very helpful, friendly, and great at what they do. Definitely recommend anybody to go check them out!

A solid bit of kit

Overall it feels sensible and well built. The hard shell has a few scratches where I've been laning but I don�t worry about getting properly damaged.

Looks good and performs well

The structure feels strong and reassuring throughout the night. I had a cheaper roof tent before but the material was quite thin and not blackout. This tent was the perfect upgrade

High standard throughout

Everything fits together properly and feels made to last. My wife and I have been loving working together to get it setup faster and more efficiently as we go. It really is very cosy without feeling cramped when you're inside. Waking up and feeling like you're in a treehouse and taking in the views was a highlight of the summer for us.
