Napier Outdoors

I ordered a tent from an unnamed supplier and ended up getting the wrong tent in the right bag. Contacted Napier directly and after giving them proof of purchase and a couple of numbers they are sending me the correct tent. If you enjoy camping and own a pickup, quality product at a reasonable price.

A unexpected summer storm came upon me while sleeping in my napier tent in pickup box,I experienced 75 mph wind for a hour,fearful for what's going on outside my tent.three days later I am still here and my tent is well also, no damage at all, I can not find words for how GREAT the Napier tent is ,SIMPLY LOVE IT...

I love my Napier Backroadz SUV tent. With the option to sleep in the tent or the SUV it’s the perfect solution for me as a solo camper with my dog. The downside side is that this tent has 2 x 22’ poles and it’s challenging to set up with one person. I broke numerous poles this summer and the company replaced them within a week. And when I complained about the set up the company communicated within a day and we found a solution. 10+ stars for customer service and product quality.

EDTI: I have received contact from Napier and have submitted the warranty. Will update once I hear more. EDIT 2: I have received the replacement items and have not had a chance to check if this is more waterproof. I wanted so badly to love the Backroadz hatch tent that I purchased September 2022 brand new. I am a K9 Search and Rescue volunteer and I travel a lot by myself. As a volunteer, we pay all our own travel and accomodations. I have a Toyota 4 Runner so after a lot of research I purchased the Backroadz tent; I wanted something I could hook up to the car because my K9 is crated in the back and that way we are in the same "room". I have used it for a total of (3) two day weekends. Weekend 1 was GREAT! I loved the roomy tent and it was so fun to camp in. It is a bit hard to set up w/ one person (I am 5ft 5in) but I could have overlooked that w/o the other issues. Also, that first weekend the weather was georgous and no rain. Weekend 2 we had some light rain and the tent leaked a bit at the seams (specifically where the plastic bottom attaches to the tent) so I decided to reseal once I returned home. Also, weekend 2 one of the tent poles split. Last weekend was a nightmare. The rain started while we were out training on day 1 so I was unaware that the seams were continuing to leak and caused the floor of the tent to become a huge puddle, and subsequently hundreds of dollars of gear and equipment were soaked. By the last morning I was literally walking in 1 inch of water on the floor of the tent. When I looked closer at the seams they create a cup/channel that the rain just sits in so I am guessing that is why they continue to leak. I almost threw the tent in the dumpster but decided that I can at least bring it home, clean it up and give it away to someone who may be able to use it in nice weather.

Always wanted a hatch tent for my Honda Element but didn't want to pay the dealer price. Finally found a great alternative through Napier Outdoors. Went down to see the people in St. Catharines and was able to test-fit one of their tents prior to purchase. Just love this tent. It is the Sportz Cove 61500 model and fits well on the Element; a little tight around the lower door but haven't had any issues with the seams or zippers tearing. A much better price than Honda dealer. It makes a great difference getting that extra two feet of space in the back of the Element versus trying to sleep with the rear doors closed. Held up to a storm on the first occasion of use. Have loads of people stopping and asking about it.
