Why should I buy a Gigatent?

The Camping Team is an AUTHORIZED dealer for Gigatent. All Gigatents sold are covered under the Gigatent factory warranty.

Fabrics:

Gigatent uses materials that are heavier coated than most manufacturers. The coating on fabrics is measured in millimeters. This measurement refers to the height of a column of water that the fabric will support without it coming through. Most of Gigatent's competitors use a 450mm to 600mm coating on their tents and rain flys. Gigatent tents use a 1200mm to 800mm coating on the rain flys, because the force generated by a storm is greatest on the rain fly. Gigatent uses an 800mm to 600mm coating on the tent bodies where the force is less direct and weaker. The thinner the coating the less pressure needed to push water through.

Zippers:

The door zipper design used most in Gigatents is known as a Twin Track zipper. This means that there are 2 zippers for the door, a horizontal zipper and a slightly curving vertical zipper. The Twin Track design minimizes the curve to the vertical zipper which can cause the zipper to fail sooner than a straight one, it also allows for a larger and easier to enter doorway. The zippers they use for their doors are larger in size than most other manufacturers. Gigatent uses only nickel plated zipper sliders on their tents which slide easier and last longer.

Designs:

Gigatent family tents are specifically designed to give the user the most interior volume possible. By using a combination of steel and fiberglass poles they have combined the straight walls of the cabin tent with the free standing nature of the dome tent to give the camper the best of both tent designs. The free standing nature of most of the family tents makes them easier to position in a campsite and requires less staking which means less time during set up. Gigatent Combo Room allows for more versatility in one tent. The camper can now own a screen house and a tent in one package. The Combo Room also allows the owner to store wet gear in the Combo Room without endangering the sleeping area. The Combo Room will also accept the extra campers that won’t fit in the rear room. Gigatent backpacking tents are designed to provide the maximum amount of living space without weighing too much. They use pin and ring attachments for the poles which are easy to replace should one require it.

Poles:

Gigatent uses 19mm steel poles for most of the large family tents. The poles are cable corded together instead of chain corded to reduce the possibility of breakage. Gigatent uses larger diameter poles and shockcord in most of their products more than the competition uses. The backpacking models use a 7000 series aircraft aluminum which resists cold and cracking unlike fiberglass. Aluminum poles are also lighter than fiberglass poles.
