Nitehawk Pop-Up Hunting Camouflage Tent/Hide/Blind - For Photography, Shooting, Bird Watching

For the price this is brilliant. Very easy to put up; it puts itself up out of the bag so stand back and don’t try it at home! It’s a good camo colour and light weight. The openings are great and flexible, with double zips inside and out. It comes with pegs and guy ropes, which you will need as it’s very light. I’m a large middle aged female photographer, and once I’m in (the doorway is quite low) there’s plenty of room for comfy chair, tripod, small table, big lens and me. The only downsides are: the mesh window covers - great that they are provided, but they don’t offer any camouflage really; an opening flap in the roof would be great as it soon fills with flies. Hover flies are tricky to guide out and boy do they buzz! I don’t know how waterproof it is, but will find out today as it was left out in the rain last night! I haven’t tried putting it away, that’s a challenge for later in the year.

I like the design, three large or integral sub windows on sides plus generous door opening. The sides are quite low and you will need a very low seat to use with a camera. The poles make for a good height once you are in there. Only criticism is that it faded rapidly from the brown woodland camo to being quite orange. As I didn't want it spotted from the road I bought some NiteHawk camo netting to disguise it. Overall it is good value, improving the colour fastness would make it a very good product for me.

Excellent photography tent. Love the camouflage material. It's really roomy could sleep 2 (cosy). I am 5ft 4 and can stand in it. Love the windows and netting to stop the mozzis who love me. Very impressed. Easy to put up. Not sure I will ever get it back in the storage bag again. It sprung open once out of its bag. No instructions included but easy to put up without. Would recommend. I wouldn't call it lightweight to carry though.

SImple and fast to put up, surprisingly sturdy despite being so lightweight. A little low but once I was seated its fine, good visibility and blends in extremely well.Perfect to set up and just leave, as long as its tied down. I used pegs made out from sharpened stout twigs instead of the tent pegs provided. I will have a couple more for different locations.

Very happy with this tent/hide, having just received, unpacked, erected and then packed it away again without resorting to instructions or YouTube tutorials. Just as well really, as it doesn't come with instructions! Appears to be very well made for the price with some thoughtful little details too. The supplied fibreglass poles are fitted on the inside to prop-up the roof and there's lots of little velcro straps to hold them in situ. I looked at several hides before deciding on this item and I reckon this is very similar to one which is endorsed by a particular wildlife photographer and costs three times as much! The woodland camo design is very good. The sun was out when I first tried it out and it looks like it could get rather humid rather quickly in there. AirCon isn't an option, but all four sides can be opened to varying degrees if there's any breeze to be had. Once inside, there's no daytime silhouette to alert wildlife to your presence, but I'm sure you'd be noticed if it was lit from inside at night! I can't say if this hide would be 100% waterproof, but really don't see it getting wet inside unless you rub the fabric. The supplied tent pegs (8) will doubtless do the job - four for the corners and four for the guy ropes, but I'll probably throw them away and use heavier duty items. The hide has not been used in anger yet, but I don't forsee any issues and I'm looking forward to it.

I've setup loads of these popup tents before, just like the Simon king one, there let down by cheap, poorly made fibreglass poles, lasted seconds before splitting. I'll order some alloy ones and feedback how long the fabric lasts over the summer. Update. It held up in some storms, fabric seems fine still but it needs some UV protection.

Easy to erect but the pegs are no good in soft ground. The sun has changed the colour, it's now more red than green.

As value for money it is bang on and that is what you have to remember whilst using it. The material seems a little to fragile in fact the first time I erected it I made a small tear with the rods. I have felt the need to reinforce where I believe the most fragile places with duct tape and cover the metal rod contractors with electrical tape. With that point aside it is very spacious inside (I am 6ft2in) with plenty of shooting positions. The velcro windows are also a nice touch. There is also ample pegs to anchor the hide down. Almost worth the 5 stars
