The above are his advantages. Its disadvantage is that because the tent is folded directly, it is relatively bulky and inconvenient to carry, but it is not a problem for friends who drive and can be placed in the trunk.

Hydraulic tent
The hydraulic tent is equipped with a hydraulic device, which is very convenient, and the opening and collection of accounts are relatively fast, which is its advantage.

People who often participate in outdoor activities can consider this tent. Because it is inevitable to encounter rainstorms outdoors, the anti-rainstorm tent can effectively block the rainwater from penetrating the tent and keep the tent dry.

Step 2:
After the two poles are worn, then you can insert one end of each pole into the small hole on the corner of the tent, and then two people cooperate, hold the two ends respectively, and push the pole inward, so that the tent can be arched. When I got up, I knew that the other heads were also inserted into the small holes. After inserting them, the tent was basically formed. Of course, it was only a rough outline. If you want to be firm, you have to tie the intersection of the tent poles with your body, and then After thinking about the direction of the door, you can insert the four corners of the tent with nails into the picture, and fix it.

In addition, there is a layer of dew or frost on the outer tent in the morning. There is a certain space to prevent the inner tent from getting wet. account.

Step 4:
