A reflective cover that fits over the tent you already own. Blocks 100% of the sun, drops the inside temperature about 20°F, and sets up in under 5 minutes.
Every tent on the market is built for weather, not for heat. The moment the sun clears the ridge, a nylon dome turns into an oven and the day is over whether you slept or not. The usual fixes share one flaw: they are not attached to your tent.

what a lifesaver!! i used it camping at ssbd music festival last weekend and this was an absolute necessity for sleeping during the hot day time !! . It was perfect to blackout the hot sun and had great air flow so i wasn't suffocating. easy to set up and pack away as well. 10/10 Highly recommend !!
Verified Google reviewI LOVE my Reflektent. Will never again festival/camp/burn without it. It's relatively easy to set up - have not attempted it alone but very chill with another person. She sturdy - the shape, air flow, and heavy duty stakes help it stand up against strong desert gusts. Most importantly, REFLEKTENT KEEPS YOU COOL (for real) - there is a significant difference in temperature from inside and outside the Reflektent. I get several extra hours of sleep in the mornings now.
Verified Google reviewThis tent cover works incredibly well! It fits over your existing tent and makes a noticeable difference in keeping the interior cooler and more comfortable. The entire product feels very well made, from the durable fabric and smooth zippers to the sturdy poles and stakes. You can tell a lot of thought and quality material science went into the design. It's easy to set up, performs exactly as promised, and feels built to last. Highly recommend!
Verified Google reviewReflektent is a game changer for camping! I purchased one for a music festival and the delivery was fast, the setup was super easy and straightforward, and I was able to stay cool in my tent and sleep in way longer than the rest of my group. Great design, good airflow, and even adds an extra layer of privacy from surrounding campers. I can't imagine camping without one now! 100% recommend and worth the investment.
Verified Google reviewHighly recommend reflektent if you're tent camping and would like to sleep later into the morning! Perfect for camping festivals or camping anywhere it gets sunny and warm. I slept in until noon after being up late the night before which was crucial! My setup was in direct sun too so it definitely helped me to stay a lot cooler.

Raised camping and climbing in the Sierra Nevada and deserts of California, I have always had a love for great gear. After moving to SoCal and experiencing many camping music festivals, I saw first hand the need for a cool and comfortable way to sleep in after long nights of music and dancing.
After years of waking up hot and sweaty as soon as the sun hit my tent, and seeing many attempts at solutions by other campers, from EZ Ups to tarps covering tents, I decided something needed to be done. ReflekTent covers and tents block the heat of the morning sun, so you can STAY COOL.

High desert, full sun, nothing between you and it. These are the mornings the cover is built for.
