Which one should you buy?

The WhiteFang Deluxe XL is our pick: it pops up in seconds, ties for the highest rating here at 4.5 from 5,150 reviews, and anchors with five built-in sandbags rather than pegs alone. The HAPPY TRAVEL gives you the same 8.5 mm poles and fourteen anchor points for less, and the WhiteFang 3 Person is the most reviewed shelter you can buy under sixty-five dollars.
