Go Time Gear Survival Life Tent • 2 Person Mylar Emergency Shelter Tube Tent + Paracord • All-Weather Protection for Camping, Hiking, & Survival Kits • Includes Emergency Whistle

TL;DR: Pack- and user-friendly, 'best in class' for an affordable survival shelter. Quality item, well-sized, durable and puncture-resistant material. There are obvious limits to this kind of gear, but respect those limits and this shelter can handle a fair share of misuse and abuse. As per Murphy's Law, anything can be destroyed, but in the class of 'survival tents' the Go Time Life Tent rates highly in idiot-proofness. My rigorously scientific research includes setting it up in our back yard and letting my kids and wife at it. They've shredded other advertised 'indestructible' shelters, tarps, other gear, etc. (give me your indestructible knife, my wife will find a way), and the Go Time has handled it without more than a little stretching and a couple of tiny burn holes from the kids roasting s'mores a little too close to it. Like any tent, it won't protect you from a cold ground, so remember to have an insulative layer. (No sleeping pad? Soft vegetation like leaves, turf, springy branches will do.) Of course, as a 'survival item' it may well spend 100% of its life packed up. On that count, the Go Time really does manage to be lighter than its competitors, and compresses easily. (I swapped the paracord for 50' of 100# kevlar braided line and 2' of duct tape, which lightens it further and takes up 1/3 the size of the para.) Fits inside a small Trangia mess tin with room to spare for more 'survival gear.' In other words, it doesn't give you a reason to 'leave it behind' and not have it when you need it (which--Murphy's Law again--will only be when you don't have it).

The Go Time Gear Survival Life Tent is an excellent addition to any emergency kit, and after testing it out, we were thoroughly impressed. The compact size and lightweight design make it perfect for carrying on any outdoor adventure without adding much bulk. It easily folds into a small sack, making storage simple. The tent’s tear-resistant polyethylene material is highly durable, and it provides solid weatherproof protection by reflecting 90% of body heat—great for harsh conditions. Setting it up is a breeze, and it can be used not only as a tent but also as an emergency sleeping bag or bivvy sack if trees aren’t available. The included 120-decibel whistle and 550lb Paracord drawstring are thoughtful additions that enhance its functionality, making it more than just a shelter. This tent is an essential item for anyone’s survival kit or bug-out bag and performs perfectly when you need it the most. Overall, it’s a reliable, well-made product that offers great peace of mind for outdoor adventures. Highly recommended!

Seems fine. It is compact and light fits good in my get home bag. Haven’t set it up and hope I don’t ever have to. The whistle on the draw string is a good touch too. Gave 4 stars since I haven’t set it up. I’m afraid I would never get it back in the bag lol. Does seem durable from what I can feel in the bag.

The Go Time Gear Survival Life Tent exceeded my expectations in every way! This two-person mylar emergency shelter is incredibly compact and lightweight, making it perfect for my hiking and camping trips. It folds down small enough to fit in my backpack without taking up much space, yet it’s spacious enough for two people in an emergency situation. Setting it up was straightforward, thanks to the included paracord. The mylar material does a great job reflecting body heat, ensuring warmth even in cold, windy conditions. I also appreciate that it’s all-weather resistant, providing a reliable shelter no matter the circumstances. The emergency whistle is a thoughtful addition, and it’s surprisingly loud—great for signaling if needed. This tent is not only ideal for outdoor adventures but also an essential addition to any survival kit. Knowing I have this in my bag gives me peace of mind, whether I’m out in the wild or just want to be prepared for unexpected situations. Pros: • Lightweight and compact • Easy to set up • Durable and weather-resistant • Effective heat retention • Includes a loud emergency whistle Cons: • None so far! If you’re looking for a reliable, space-saving survival shelter, this one is a no-brainer. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Nice and compact; simple and functional. Make sure to pay attention to how it unfolds if you want to put it back in the bag. There are a million folds and it would certainly be a nightmare in the wind. However, this is an emergency tent so don't expect frills or luxury. Para-cord ends will need to be redone to prevent fraying. Final photo was after I folded it back up and put it away (no photos of the tent deployed because I didn't fully open it up). I laid it out on the floor and it's the same material as an emergency blanket (mylar, I believe). I ordered this tent twice. The first arrived with a broken sliding spring lock. They were very quick to provide a replacement and the owner sent follow-up emails to ensure complete customer satisfaction. All-in-all: Great product for the price! Now, I just hope I don't need to use it ha.

when I am walking a 10-15 mile loop trail I want to have a portable shelter in case something goes wrong. A tent is too heavy. This fits the bill nicely, it will sit on the bottom of my pack and be ready in case I need it. I set it up in my backyard to test it and it went up easily and is large enough for me to fit in comfortably (6'1 250 lbs). Folding it back up was not as much fun but doable. This is an emergency shelter. It is not meant to replace a multi-use tent but it looks like it is durable enough for several nights in the field.

Toggle broke about 5 seconds out the box, material is “tear resistant” which means absolutely nothing. Honestly just go down to your local supermarket and buy some aluminium foil at this point.

Must have accessory for backpacker. Super light. Super compact. Easy to set up

Not needed to use it yet but appears to be fit for purpose

No he tenido la necesidad de usarlo, pero se me hizo una opción accesible y reducida para emergencias. Se ve de buena calidad.

Super Qualität
