Rankings

The whole database sorted by the numbers people actually decide on. Each ranking is a straight sort of a published specification — the order is the data, never a “best in test” opinion, and a tent that does not publish a figure is left out of that list rather than ranked last.

• The lightest rooftop tents

  Every rooftop tent in the database ranked by manufacturer-published weight, lightest first — the figure that decides what your roof can legally carry.

• The cheapest rooftop tents

  Rooftop tents ranked by manufacturer list price, lowest first. Each price is the maker's own, in their currency, converted only for ranking.

• The fastest rooftop tents to pitch

  Rooftop tents ranked by setup time, fastest first. Every figure is the manufacturer's claim — real-world times run longer, especially for fold-outs.

• The roomiest rooftop tents

  Rooftop tents ranked by sleeping floor area, largest first — the number that decides how many people actually fit and how much you move at night.

• Rooftop tents with the most headroom

  Rooftop tents ranked by interior height, tallest first — the difference between sitting up to dress and doing it lying down.

• The best-value rooftop tents

  Rooftop tents ranked by price per square metre of sleeping floor — the most bed for the money, not just the lowest sticker price.
