Costway 6-Person Blackout Camping Tent vs Abahub 6 Person Instant Cabin Tent

The Costway is the better tent for hot, sunny trips and for anyone who wants a dark, private cabin to sleep in past sunrise. Its 9 x 9 ft floor, blackout coating, UPF 50+ fabric and 3000mm waterproof rating beat the Abahub on space and weather protection. The Abahub wins on setup: its instant steel-and-fiberglass frame pitches in about a minute, where the Costway needs poles, stakes and ropes threaded by hand. Owners of instant tents like the Abahub praise the speed but report more flex in wind and heavier packed weight; the Costway is the sturdier, roomier shelter once it is up.

• Choose the Costway if you want a dark, roomy cabin tent for sunny or rainy basecamp trips and don't mind a slower pitch.
• Choose the Abahub if you pitch and strike every day and want a cabin tent standing in about a minute.
