    Never use sharp objects

    Be careful not to use sharp objects in conjunction with the lifetent. This includes toenails and sticks. The material will tear. Treated well this stuff is amazing

    Stores well.

    I have not had it out of the bag and hopefully will not have to. Bought it as a “just in case” item and hope I don’t ever have to use it. Very nice storable size.

    Just what I need

    This emergency tent is exactly that. Just enough to offer a minimum of shelter when nothing else is available. It is literally a thin plastic sheet and some cord. BUT it is compact and lightweight. It is better than nothing. And that is what I had before ordering this– NOTHING.I work 40 miles from home and it would take me 3 to 4 days to hike home. So now my emergency “Get Home Bag” has a small tent, should I need oneTent: ✔️

    Tired of Glamping with the In-Laws?

    This product just may save your life AND your sanity-it’s an essential in my pack while camping or hiking. Tested in Winter under controlled circumstances (not unlike my willingness to socialize), it performed remarkably well considering it’s such a light, thin material. One suggestion though, if you intend to get one of these for yourself: carry something to use as a closure for additional protection from the elements (and your mother-in-law), because both ends are wide open. Stay safe out there!

    Good emergency shelter

    This isn’t a primary shelter, it’s supposed to be an emergency solution that you can put together in a pinch, which is why I bought it. It’s made of the same material as emergency shock blankets, so it’s a thin reflective plastic material. It does a good job of reflecting your body heat but I would minimize how many times you use this. It is a cheap material but it serves its purpose as an emergency solution.

    Not stretchy as described….

    The media could not be loaded.

     This is a great little sack for a bug out bag. But I ordered it based on the video that showed them stretching the material and it bouncing back. None of the reviews showed really showed what the material acted like when pulled and such, so I decided to show it. If you laid this on any rock, stick, or anything slightly pokey, you would have punctures. You would need a ground tarp if you wanted to use it more than once. Still, it’s a nice little thing to have especially if you have an outer bivy or tent and just need a warm blanket.

    Best in class for an affordable survival shelter

    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).

    Pure trash

    As with all safety equipment, you MUST check them before you go. With this tent and it’s promis to save you from cold and hyperthermia there is a chance that you will be using this with frozen fingers, in a harsh environment. So you might expect this is a strong plastic tent or something. It is not. Absolutely ripped when I was just testing it in my living room. I am sorry but a garbage bag which this thing belongs to, probably has 10 times the durability for a fraction of the cost. How difficult is to not produce a TOY??.Making it as a 5 star for visibility so hopefully you are not fooled by people who give this a 5 star without even opening and inspecting it.

    Not the best material

    I purchased this life tent for my SAR emergency pack. The size of the product is great for someone who has to carry a backpack through the wilderness. My SAR team set these life tents up during our survival testing so I’m not sure how these would hold up in a real life scenario. One of our tents ripped almost immediately and you definitely can’t fit more than one person inside. The ends of the tent also expose you to the elements, but overall a decent product.

    EDC

    Got two of these to put in the car for emergencies. Small & light weight. Its basically a disposable mylar blanket & can rip easily. You may want to use a real tarp to go underneath to protect it.

    Emergency Preparation

    Fortunately, I haven’t needed to use this yet. But will say that I like the small compact size makes it convenient to put one in each vehicle to use as a blanket or sleeping bag if needed. I packed mine with other vehicle emergency tools (air pump, tools, lights).Also plan to transfer it to my day pack when hiking in case of problems on the trail. Again, the small size makes this possible.

    Get 2 so you can use one to learn who to put up.

    In 40 degree weather I was so warm I laid on top of the sleeping bag with my shirt off.The ends do not close so you open to the elements or bugs. Lucky there was none of that when we camped. I needed something super light and this worked. We used our hiking poles on each end and I got 30 foot of extra rope to tie it up and down. Loved it. But its a one time use and it got too warm at times.

    Carry some duck tape.

    This is a very simple setup.I does a amazing job of keeping heat in. The best advice I could give you is put your sleeping material in it first to weigh it down. Then carry duck tape Incase you get any holes in it. I would also recommend getting a bug net for it. Overall for how small and light weight it is it’s worth the money if you understand basic scout tent setup.

    You won’t die

    I slept out under the stars in the Badlands using only this for a blanket and grass for my pillow. It was perfect. It was July however the temps dropped to the low 60s or maybe it was high 50s at night (ferninhite). When I awoke I was surrounded by buffalo. I could have gotten myself in trouble but it is no fault of the bivy.I also slept out on a sub 30 degree night last year with this bivy. I didn’t die. I was not comfortable but I didn’t die.It’s for an emergency not comfort. If you want comfort buy a real sleep system. This is great to drop in your pack anytime you are out and about. Like wearing a seatbelt.

    Don’t try this when you’re not at home & definnot after a session.

    I bought this delightful item as it was reasonably priced & promised practicality & minimal storage. Price is ok, storage is ok until you take it out of the pouch, then its an absolute pain in the hole to roll up & get back into said pouch but somehow it can be one by one person.The item is said to be tear resistant; well let me assure you i didn’t try to tear it & it didn’t put up much resistance. It is however excellent at retaining bodyheat which is just as well as dying from hypothermia isn’t a good way to review a product.Threading the cord through the top of the tent is nogh on impossible unless you have fingers like E.T. so thats just a big no. I referred to the instructions but there weren’t any & as I’m not Bear Grylls slumming it was the order of the day (night). And finally, don’t try crawl into this item when its dark & you’re full of sauce….See attached pic for reference.

    A little peace of mind!

    I have not found it necessary to utilize The Life Tent, so I can’t give a full review. I have used Mylar in the past. Impressed by it’s ability to retain a bit of thermal heat. Mylar also provides a moisture barrier as long as it isn’t damaged.Purchased this item to throw into my toolbox I keep in my truck.Better to have it than not 🧐Recommended

    Great in a pinch

    Not for multiple uses. Just there in emergency situation if needed. First one company sent me had holes on arrival. Company reimbursed me for damaged product and I didn’t even ask. I just wanted a replacement without holes. Second one I bought was free of flaws. Lightweight and glad to have it in my pack in the event I get stuck out without a tent. Also bought the bag for same purpose.

    Basic Survival

    I bought this for my go bag on the recommendation of an experienced backpacker. It’s reasonably priced, small and lightweight so it fits nicely in your go bag. It is open both sides and, like most survival tents, comes without poles and stakes. I didn’t realize that when I bought it. I gave it 4 stars because it will be a challenge to set it up. It’ll require rocks to hold it down and two objects to tie it up to! If you are in the dark with no trees that won’t be possible. It’s strictly emergency, last resort. Also, It says it comes with an emergency whistle which was not included in the box. Thankfully the rope was there. I thought about returning it. It says wind and water proof but two open sides won’t afford much shelter in a storm. I decided to keep it until I can afford a lightweight freestanding tent that will offer more protection. Be aware that it will require care to set it up on level ground with nothing that will puncture it. It has great reviews but all of them noted this. It’s durable but will puncture or tear if set up on sharp rocks, twigs, etc.

    Just what I was looking for to keep in my daypack

    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.

    For many years I have kept emergency gear in the trunk of my car. A spare set of clothing, a pair of shoes, a sleeping bag, some bottled water, etc …This extremely lite-weight tent has made an excellent addition to that gear. I hope that I never need to use it, but I’d rather have it and not need it than need it and not having it.

    nice stuff one unavoidable “issue”

    as they come from the manufacturer they are not the easiest to unfold and “deploy” if needed in an emergency in rain or sleet one would be soaked which is not good. so i am glad i did a “dry” run at home were i refolded it to make it way easier and faster to deploy…otherwise good stuff. i think it seems so far(not used yet) but it does seem more durable compared to the cheap tiny walmart mylar …

    Can get smaller.

    So not a huge fan of the paracord it came with. But i have my own quick ridge line system i use instead. I wanted to share a discovery though. If you have some ranger bands you can actually shrink this down even tighter. I got my so small i was able to fit inside a ziplock “snack” bag. Allowed me to add it to my super tiny EDC pouch. That really bumped it up in my appreciation level. I cant give it the full 5 star review yet till its been battle tested. Ill update this post if/when that happens. Either way i doubt its durable enough to be consistently reusable…still it should do in a pinch and could last long term as long as its paired with a skilled carrier of duct tape 😀
