Sanhima Rooftop Tent Hard Shell - Hotham Lite Overland Aluminium Roof Top Tent 4.56" Slimline, w/Tri-Color LED Strip Light & 1.97” Thick Mattress, for Car SUV Truck Camping, 2-3 People

I have been looking at rooftop tents for over 2 years wanting to buy one and while I have purchased lots of things from Brands I'd never heard of before on Amazon this was a big purchase and I was extra cautious and wouldn't pull the trigger until a couple weeks ago. I purchased the San Hima Hotham Lite because my family does a lot of camping and traveling to other states and we were camping out of the back of my SUV, with a tailgate tent and air mattress and all. It was nice but took forever to pull the stuff out of the vehicle and set up the back of the car to sleep and then squeezing our stuff into the front seat was a pain. Well I came across this tent on Amazon and decided the time had come to make my purchase. I ordered the tent on a Sunday morning and was told it would be delivered that following Thursday. A couple days before it was supposed to arrive I realized I had ordered the version that didn't come with the crossbars on top and contacted the seller to see if they sold the crossbars and see how much they would be. When I went to message the seller I noticed they had already messaged me to let me know that I had forgotten to hit the button for their free camping flashlight/torch (which is awesome by the way) and that they were gonna ship it to me anyways. They also said that for some reason when they shipped my tent it had shipped without the ladder and that would be shipped separately also. I was leaving on a camping trip on Friday and started to get upset but said screw it, bought another ladder and went to Home Depot to get materials and I made my own to use for the weekend. I asked them about the crossbars and they said they do not ship them separately. Oh well. The next morning I wake up to another message from the seller. This message was letting me know that my ladder and light had shipped, and that to make up for the mixup with the ladder they were also shipping me the crossbars for the tent for free as well. Awesome. The tent came on Thursday at about 10AM and I had it on my vehicle by noon. I've seen horror stories of people receitent with massive dents in them and other damage but mine came in PERFECT condition, it was beautiful lol. It is easy to mount on the vehicle just make sure your roof rack and crossbars or whatever you mount it to can support the weight of the tent while driving. Opening the tent and setting it up takes less than 5 minutes once mounted. There is plenty of room in the tent for me (6'1" 170lbs) and my wife (5'11" 135lbs) and we weren't squeezed in at all, though there is no way you are fitting a third person or even a medium sized dog in there with us. The mattress seems thin but I still slept well and didn't wake up stiff and sore, though my wife is insisting I find an air mattress that fits (which is difficult not because it is a RTT but because it apparently has odd dimensions for a RTT, it's been I week I'm still looking for one that will fit this well). We slept in it 3 nights over the Labor Day weekend and it was great and my wife and I are planning more camping trips than we normally would because of how easy this tent makes it. We love everything from the show bag to the fact when we close the doors/windows the zipper didn't try to bind at all and were nice and smooth. The USB powered light in the tent works great hooking it up to a power bank and doesn't drain my 60,000mah power bank more than 4% during the night. It has more pockets inside than we had items to stuff in them. It is an overall great value for the money. When we got home from our trip the ladder and flashlight arrived on Tuesday and are just as nice as the tent and then the free crossbars they sent arrived on Wednesday. I am so happy with this purchase and recommend this tent/seller to anyone looking for a rooftop tent. From purchasing the item to dealing with customer service the transaction, while not without it's flaws, worked out wonderful in the end and I couldn't be happier.

I have been looking for a rooftop tent for my nephew. He has a 2003 4Runner. I was initially skeptical of buying an ‘off-brand’, but the specs, reviews, and price point checked all my boxes. I took a chance and am very happy I did.1. Interior bed is about 46” by 80” by my measurements, the sleeping pad is about 2” thick, so it’s about 8” wider than a Twin XL. I’m 5’9” and I comfortably fit inside, lying down and sitting up, although it might be a little snug with a partner. The pad isn’t anything special, but it does the job. There’s enough room when the tent is closed to probably fit another 1 or 2 inches of padding in there squished down, which I will definitely be doing.2. Hard exterior shell with silicone weather sealing around the outer trim. For under 130 pounds, it feels incredibly solid and is an easy lift with two strong people onto the vehicle. I appreciate how low profile it is (under 5 inches). Haven’t experienced it in a rain or wind storm yet, but because of how solid everything feels, I wouldn’t hesitate to try it out.3. Setup was under 5 minutes. The hydraulics are rigid, fast, and quiet, but aren’t too difficult to pull down when you collapse the tent. There’s a cord that wraps around the fabric interior to help keep it inside the box, the trickiest part was getting that cord out of the way.4. The zippers appear to be air/watertight, I tried to close the tent with all the zippers fully zipped up and the tent wouldn’t close because all of the air was trapped inside. That’s great for where I live, don’t want the dust getting in there.5. Having the optional mesh zip layer on each opening is really nice. The mesh seems to be good quality too.6. Interior LED light already included is a great feature. It’s not too bright either so it won’t blind you at night. The storage pouches above you and on the sides inside the tent are helpful too.7. Lockable hinges with an included key to prevent anyone from opening it up. I haven’t mounted it to my vehicle yet, but the mounting hardware appears to be solid.Things to improve:1. The initial shipment did not come with the advertised included ladder. I saw another review had the same issue. Hence why I haven’t mounted it to be a vehicle. Awaiting response from seller.2. There’s a handle included on the hinge side to make it easy to release, but it would have been nice to include a handle on the other side as well for easy carrying.3. The rain fly arms are a little bit awkward to install but do the job.4. After the tent is closed, there’s a gap underneath where the outer edge of the shell goes over the inside of the tent. I could see that gap collecting dust, time will tell.Overall, very satisfied with the purchase and excited to take it out. Happy camping!

Overall quality seems good. While the design provides a low profile there are a couple misses. Since there is a gap between the top and bottom there is nothing preventing dust, rain, critters, and anything else from going up into the tent area. There should be a gasket to fill the gap so that nothing can get up in there. I will be adding a self adhesive gasket to help fill that void but the tent should come with it. Seems like a bit of an oversight. Also if you plan on mounting an awning to it, you are out of luck. This was an oversight on my part as I didn’t take that into consideration. The package arrived damaged but the tent did not show any damage where the box was damaged. However. There is a pretty deep small ding on top and there were a few scratches and smudges here and there.
