The Shelter

Don't let pesky insects spoil your night. No-See-Um netting keeps out tiny critters, while the tub-floor prevents moisture from below. This net tent for two is designed to pair with our 2P Cirriform Tarp, but it also works with larger a-frame style tarps. Multiple doors allow easy entry from both sides, and the front.

  • Multiple entry points from the front or either side.
  • ~8" tub-floor.
  • Two interior stash pockets
  • One interior hang loop.

Fabric We've switched the flooring to a 20D Ripstop Polyester with a Sil/PU coating. The PU coating on the inner face significantly improves puncture resistance and reduces slipperiness over the previous 20D and 40D Silpoly offerings.

Rigging to connect the Bug Shelter to your tarp comes pre-installed. If you want to pitch the shelter without a tarp, you'll need additional guyline for the apexes and six stakes (additional guyline and stakes are not included).

We recommend seam sealing (instructions) the following seams from the inside prior to use: vertical seams at each tub corner (4), seams along the base of the tub's side walls (2). We have tested Gear Aid's Seam Grip +Sil to work with this Sil/PU fabric (not included).

Made in the USA from imported fabric.

    (taller poles are ok)
  • Front Guyline: ~84" (~210cm)
  • Rear Guyline: ~72" (~180cm)
  • Stakes: 6
Rigging/Pitching
Included rigging

Your net-tent comes with the following rigging installed. Though configured for pairing with the 2P Cirriform, the rigging will allow for pairing with many other a-frame tarps as well.

  • Tops corners of tub: 24" of 3/32" shock cord & squeeze hook at each upper tub corner
  • Apexes: 15" (front) & 24" (rear) 3/32" shock cord with mini barrel cordlocks & mitten hooks

Pitching under a tarp (Option 1)

This is the recommended approach for pitching under the 2P Cirriform.

  • Pitch the tarp.
  • Clip the Bug Shelter's apexes to points above on the tarp.
  • Connect the cords at the Bug Shelter's corners to the tarp's corners.
  • Adjust the cords at the apexes to raise the Bug Shelter to the desired height.
  • Adjust the cords at the tub's corners to pull out the tub.
  • If desired, stake the bottom corners of the tub. Otherwise, let the tub hang.

Pitching under a tarp (Option 2)

This is the recommended approach for pitching under larger a-frame tarps.

  • Pitch the tarp.
  • Clip the Bug Shelter's apexes to points above on the tarp.
  • Adjust the cords at the apexes to raise the Bug Shelter to the desired height.
  • At each tub corner, clip the squeeze hook to the tie-out at the floors bottom corner. Cord should be adjusted to its maximum length.
  • At each tub corner, stake the cord that now connects the upper and lower corners so the cord forms a triangle with the upper and lower tub corners.

Pitching without a tarp

For times when you only need bug protection and no tarp.

  • At each tub corner, clip the squeeze hook to the tie-out at the floors bottom corner. Cord should be adjusted to its maximum length.
  • At each tub corner, stake the cord that now connects the upper and lower corners so the cord forms a triangle with the upper and lower tub corners.
  • Connect a guyline to the cords at each apex.
  • Stake out the apex guylines, using a pole near each end to provide height.
  • Adjust the guyline length as needed using the cordlocks installed at each apex.

Just what I needed
Size: 4 Panel-136"W, Color: Black
I have a one bedroom apt and my son stays with me half the time. He has an air mattress in the living room until I can afford a 2 bedroom. But he’s in his early teens and needs privacy. I bought this after looking online at may of these. I’m so glad I went with this one. It covers his air mattress 3/4 of the way around and now he has his own little nook. I also gave him some led lamps and he might it like his own little nightclub. He LOVES it. And now he’s excited to be in his space. The quality is so good and there’s no see through, no gaps, it’s perfect.

Instructions could be clearer, but assembles well and is sturdy
Size: 3 Panel-102"W, Color: Black
The only reason for the lack of a star is the iffy instructions. There are a few different washers and the instructions could make the difference a LOT easier to understand and thereby reduce the need to re-do things. Other than that, the panels were easy to assemble and the parts fit well together. I was able to disassemble the screens and store them for a future use, which is nice. One caution - the feet that make the panels stand up will likely be a trip hazard, so be sure to plan the location for this device carefully.

Awesome product!!!
Size: 3 Panel-102"W, Color: Beige, Size: 3 Panel-102"W, Color: Beige
This thing is really awesome. I actually bought 2 of them and made myself a nice little enclosure to keep out any peeping Toms while I’m trying to work on my summer tan. What I was looking for is FULL privacy and this DEFINITELY provides that. Fabric is completely opaque, you cannot see anything through it which is exactly what I needed. Another huge bonus is the strips of fabric to cover the spaces in between the panels, giving TRUE privacy. This is a really well-made product, great design, great structure, and pretty easy to put together overall. The only downside is that with strong gusts of wind, it wants to tip over so as you can see I secured the bottom feet with a couple bricks to make it stable and that did the trick. But to me that is a minor inconvenience given all its other great aspects. So many other privacy dividers were still see-through… totally defeating the purpose. But this one is absolutely full privacy and PERFECT for what I needed it for!!!

Broke within an hour of assembly.
Size: 6 Panel-120"W, Color: Beige
This is of horrible quality. Within an hour of building, the feet support were broken on both ends, where they spin in place & do not stay straight to hold the divider up. Pieces of the plastic on the feet were broken simply from assembling the product. The covers for the metal poles were the only reason I bought this divider instead of other similar products, however those only cover one side of the metal poles so they are still visible from the other side. Two of these covers were also torn & not useable within an hour of assembly, one was already partially ripped on arrival & the other one was ripped simply during assembly of the product. I do not recommend this item & would have returned if I was still in the return window. I missed the return window because the product was bought during the holidays & I didn’t have time to mess with the return. I have not been able to use this product even once, the broken feet which do not stay in place make it very unstable & dangerous.
