Pop Up Tent News from Our Pinnacle Tents Brand Prototype Tent Shop

Well, we have been quiet for a while busy with some new pop up tent design ideas and pop up tent improvements in our prototype tent shop and are ready to introduce them to the market.  A new pop up tent that we are excited to introduce is our pop up, self opening tent series XP4000 in 2, 3, and 4 person sizes. See Details .  These tents spring open in 3 seconds and have walls and roof made of fine mesh screen for great ventilation.  To top it off we cover it up with a full, highly waterproofed rain fly with a large vestibule front and back. Simply toss the tent out to open it, toss the rain fly over it and stake it all down and you are done.  Of course on hot, clear days you can use the tent without the rain fly and enjoy the full ventilation of the screening and do some star gazing.  For versatility, the rain fly for Pinnacle Tents brand XP4000 series tents will be compatible with our XP3033 series tents so you can upgrade your XP3033 series tent to a 4 season tent whenever you choose.  As always, we use the best tent materials such as zinc plated spring steel for an unbreakable frame and high quality polyester fabrics. Please leave us a comment on what you think since your suggestions drive our future products and enhancements.

Self Erecting Pop Up Tent - New Design

NEWS: We were excited to have the opportunity to exhibit our tents this year at the OUTDOOR RETAILER SHOW in Salt Lake City from 8/8-8/11/2008. After over a year of design work, we showcased our new patent pending pop up self erecting style tent and it got rave reviews and generated a lot of excitement from visitors at our booth. The show allowed us to show off our newly designed tents and also spotlight the versatility of our tent manufacturing that we have done for the Girl Scouts, US Military, Jack Daniels, Snap-On Tools, Grand Canyon Expeditions, Naturalists at Large and a host of other outfitters, retreat centers, and individual campers. Of course, along with all the work we got to have some fun too. The outdoor industry has a unique casualness and we met a lot of friendly people, attended some great parties at the show and gatherings outside the show. I would recommend doing whatever you can to make your way to the show in the future as you get to see all the new gear and it is always a fun time by all. Hope to see you all there next year! Check out and order our limited offered Pop up Tents.

Here is the much awaited redesign of our pop up self erecting tent. It is much more durable and waterproof than previous self erecting tent designs. It has an unbreakable spring steel frame. We listened to your suggestions and worked on better materials and a new roof design. We are making 4 different model tents. These tents started shipping at the end of November 2008. We are manufacturing limited quantities and you can buy one now at our consumer website. Please leave us a comment if you have some time.
