Oz Tent The 30 Second Tent. Great for Camping & 4wd.

The story of the OZTENT all started in the mid 1980's when Joe Viglione (Oztent inventor) went camping with his wife. He borrowed a tent from a friend and on the first night he almost had a divorce. He didn't know it at the time but one pole was missing from the package. It wasn't the best way to start a holiday and in frustration he yelled.............

When he got back from his holiday, cut short by his experience with the tent, he went about trying to find a tent that would be easy to setup and pack away but also a tent that had nothing to lose or go missing. Well he couldn't find a tent on the market with the features he wanted. After thinking about all the tents he had investigated Joe thought he would design his own. He was sure that there were other people who hated the tents currently on the market and felt sure that if he designed a tent he wanted, many others would buy it also. None of his designs really worked and in frustration he stopped thinking about it. One night he had a dream about a tent design that could be erected in 30 seconds. He got up raced to the kitchen table and started drawing pictures. It was the first drawing of the now famous ........

Many prototypes were made. The design really worked and Joe patented the tent worldwide. Finally the Oztent was released in 1993 and in that same year the Oztent was awarded ....





From kitchen table to International Award Winning tent - The Oztent has been and continues to be another great little Aussie Invention that is now available in the U.K., Switzerland, Netherlands, Germany, France, Denmark, New Zealand, South Africa and the USA.

Apart from the fact that the Oztent is so easy to set up (in less than 30 seconds and by one person) Joe added many new features to make this tent a real pleasure to camp in.
  • Waterproof Rip- Stop Poly-Cotton Canvas (Yes, Guaranteed Waterproof).
  • Double stitched seams in all places.
  • Superfine insect mesh to keep out the smallest of insects (including sand flies).
  • All guy ropes are attached and consealed in convenient pockets on the tent, so that you can't lose them and they are always there when you want them.
  • Apart from the two awning poles, the Oztent has no poles to assemble or lose because the internal frame forms part of the tent. You simple unfold to erect it and fold it to pack it up.
  • It comes complete in just one waterproof carry bag.
  • Heavy duty ropes and pegs are included as standard.
  • The heavy duty PVC floor is heat welded and has no sewn sections - it can't leak!
  • Zippered power cord inlet.
  • Large attached awning is included and has zippers for the innovative options available.
  • Large window and doors for great ventilation.

Well this is the tent for you. OZTENT suits all 4WD vehicles on the market. Our product has developed a reputation for this and many four wheel drivers are now singing its praises. Imagine driving all day, tired & hot, the last thing you want to do is fiddle with a tent for half an hour or more. OZTENT takes that stress away. You could even drive until night fall and erect it without hassles in less than 30 seconds even in the dark.

Well the OZTENT is just perfect as a quick annex or extra room for the kids or grandkids or just the perfect outside area. But of course it still doubles as a tent so when you want to get away from the van for a few days to go to the more rugged areas of this great country (that most people just dream about), you can leave the caravan or trailer behind and take the hassle free and easy OZTENT.

If so, this tent will provide you with instant extra room with a minimum of fuss. Because the OZTENT is free-standing you can safely drive away from your site and be sure that the OZTENT has secured your great spot. It can be erected either to the rear or side of the van and forms part of your setup.

You don't need to have one of the recreational vehicles discussed above to enjoy the great features of this tent. The OZTENT is so versatile that is is also used at sports meets, dog shows, picnic and equestrian events.
