An instant tent is an exciting way to make camping somewhat easier. Normal tents need quite a bit of putting tubes and supports together, unfolding and arranging the tent materials, and threading the supports through tiny loops. It is fine for the skilled camper who has conducted this task hundreds of times, however for the unskilled camper who's just trying to enjoy the outdoors, setting up the tent can be the worst part of camping. For people camping alone it may be extremely difficult to carry out some of the tasks necessary for putting a tent up, making the job take a lot longer than it should and driving the camper to spend most of his evening setting up a tent rather than enjoying a campfire or wildlife. For those who are camping with an inexperienced or somehow incapable person this is equally hard. Families that have decided to go camping together may find themselves unable to watch their kids while they attempt to put up a tent. Their kids might lose interest in camping as they watch or participate in struggling to set up the tent.
There are some kinds of instant tents out there, each with their own pros and cons. A few offer faster setup but are constructed with lighter materials which are not suitable for rugged camping. Some others are heavy and wouldn't be suitable for campers who plan to carry their tent with them on hiking trips. Some are small even if they are quality items, and these are not suitable for groups of three or more campers.

The very quickest tent for assembly is the 2 second tent. These easy and quick tents are extremely lightweight. They don't come in large sizes as the larger structures require more supports than the small tent. However, 2 second tents can be perfect for campers who are planning to sleep alone or also for two person tents. They are small and very mobile so they are ideal for hikers who intend to carry their tent with them. The convenience of setup is another plus for hikers. They will be finishing their day tired and don't wish to spend minutes of their rest time trying to put up a hard tent. Rather, they can have an almost instant bed. The 2 second tent does in fact pop-up in a matter of two seconds, which makes it the fastest of all of the instant tents.
Camping families who would like another shaded space for a picnic table may appreciate the EZ up tents, which are tent canopies which can be assembled in a minute or two. These are not camping tents but canopies that can be used to offer shade for chairs or tables or other area the campers would like to have shaded. This kind of pop up tent is fantastic for large parties of people because it offers another space for people to get out of the sun or the rain. An EZ up tent can also be used in private homes or other areas for a semi-permanent shade structure to use.
Instant tents are a fantastic choice for people who wish to spend most of their camping vacations experiencing and enjoying the outdoors and time spent with family and friends instead of spending time putting together or disassembling tents. It is very important select a correctly sized tent and keep in mind the weight if you wish to hike with their tent. An instant tent can make a camping trip the vacation it's supposed to be.
