You can now pitch a test faster then Michael Jackson in Disney World (Pah-rump!). A new line of tents promise to unfold in a matter of seconds – just unzip and toss in the air. Packing is just as easy, just a quick crumple and you are done. Perfect for those of you who don’t want to fully commit to the camping thing, but still want some time to be one with nature.

Priced between $49 and $109 all depending on the size.

    you might want to reconsider recommending a tent that was recalled due to fire hazard.

    Anybody remember the movie Congo? They had these same type of tents. Way cool back in the 90’s. Nice to see you can finally buy them.

    This isn’t new! It’s been out for over a year in UK/France.. maybe it’s only just got to USA..

    I have this tent, and it really is awesome. Mine’s from 2005 and has never spontaneously combusted. The new ‘light’ model looks really great, as the only thing that stopped me from using mine too much is that it was too wide to strap to my backpack in windy conditions.
