“I love the new addition. Creates a big enough space to have some privacy without having to climb up to the RTT. Few downsides: it makes a 60 second setup into a 30+ min setup. Also, because of its size, it’s difficult to maneuver solo. It can be done, just not ideal. I found myself having to research videos to setup. Wish it was more cut and dry where to start. Perhaps with a numbering system. Overall, great purchase.”
“So the annex room. First off I'll say it's good. However! For what they cost why would you not have a floor to go in it ? What if it's raining really bad and you have let's say a dog or stuff in the room your trying to keep dry. It's just going to get wet from water rolling into the room under the annex. It's a very poor design. Now, there are rtt tent that come WITH annex rooms or can be optional. And not only that, some have an option to either have it attached all the time or when it gets dirty you can simply unzip, take it off, and clean it! Super simple and easy. AND they are cheaper in price. Now granite ikamper is known for quality I'd say maybe possibly they may have a better quality. But then again the only way tell is to try them out for yourself. So in my opinion if I'm going to spend $4000+ on a tent and have to purchase an annex seperater, whether you "think" you need it or not, it should be an option. It's better to have and not need than to not have and need. Of course you can always put down a tarp. But tarps get wet and messy and they are difficult to deal with vs a rubberize/ rugitized floor that can zip onto and attach to the annex itself. Anyway, I do prefer ikamper but wanted to give my feed back so people shopping for this product can have it. Again it's just my opinion, some people like it without it I suppose and that's fine. Still a great product. But just like anything else. It can be better !”
“The annex was a necessary addition to my set up and has already proven itself several times. I had some issues with one of the poles bending. Customer service was great and sent me another set. Since then I have angled the poles away from vehicle with bottoms being closer to vehicle. I haven’t had any issues with poles bending setting them up this way. Aside from that I love the annex! Great out of weather area and is considerably warmer especially while cooking.”
“The iKamper Skycamp 2.0 and Annex room far exceed our expectations. The quality of the iKamper product is durable, extremely easy to set up and comfortable.”
“The tent pole on the right side poked the grommet out on the first time using. Please send me a replacement. The material seems weaker than the main tent.”
“We bought the annex and were not expecting to use it as much as we have. We’ve been doing some winter camping and got caught in a serious rain storm. The annex kept us relatively warm and very dry with a place to cook and play some cards until it passed. We have also used it as a place for additional campers to sleep. It will hold two cots with room for a table and gear. It has been a very versatile addition to the camp kit.”
