“A couple of pictures of the tents in Chile. It's a really nice product you are selling. The tents were set up for 4 month, they went through rain, wind, sun and a lot of humidity and they ended up very well.”

Hunted out of this tent for two weeks. Paired with a camp chef wood stove, this tent was always warm. I seasoned my tent and stove before my hunting trip. It rained heavily the first two days of my trip and not a drop of water got in my tent. I also burned my stove very hot at one point to the point that the stove pipe was glowing red. No damage to the tent at all. Just an all around great tent for hunting in bad weather conditions.
Used in my 12x12 tent under a camp chef wood stove. I kept my stove hot for the better part of a week with no issues. The mat did a great job at deflecting the heat and even ate a couple of sparks/coals with zero issues. At one point my stove was burning so hot that the pipe started glowing red and the mat did its job perfectly.
Got this unit to downsize from a different tent. 1st time out was in 40mph wind gusts. Handled wonderfully!! So far extremely happy!
If you camp all the time like I do—more than most people—this Kodiak Canvas tent is a total game-changer! It’s made my van camping so much better. Setting it up is a breeze—it takes me about 10 minutes now, but even the first time, during 40mph gusts, I still got it up in 20 minutes. In no time, you’ve got a private, comfortable space to sleep, change clothes, read, or just escape the rain.
The durability really stands out. The first week I used it, it rained , and it kept everything inside dry and comfortable. If you’re dealing with rocky ground and can’t get the stakes in, you can just use paracord and big rocks (as you can see in the pic), and you’re good to go.
I also love that Kodiak Canvas offers just the replacement canvas body if you need it down the road 5 years ,which is a more affordable option than buying all the poles and stakes again.
So far, I’ve set it up twice, and I’m really impressed with how solid it is. I’ve seen plenty of 5-year reviews from others, and I’m hopeful it’ll last that long for me too. I try to be mindful and go easy when zipping up the doors to hopefully keep them in great shape.
All in all, I can’t recommend this tent enough. If you camp as often as I do, this is the shelter you need. Huge thanks to Kodiak Canvas for making such an incredible product!
I was looking for a good tent and my buddy bought the 12x12 package and I was super impressed. I bought the 10x10 because it's just me but I could not ask for a better tent. I could live in this comfortably =)
