FAULTY ITEMS

We highly recommend opening your tent at home to see if it is standing straight and practising the pack down as soon as it arrives.

Items must be returned within 14 days, in their original (unused and unwashed) condition and packaging, with all tags attached. You will be required to cover all postage costs associated with the return.
TWISTED FRAME
Due to the design of pop-up tents, if incorrectly folded the frame can get twisted in the fabric sleeve, making it difficult for the tent to stand up straight or pack down easily. This is why we strongly suggest opening your tent as soon as it arrives and practicing the pack down using our folding technique you can find here or by scanning the QR code on the care label of the tent bag.
We can't accept responsibility for tents that are twisted due to user error by not using the correct folding technique.

We can make changes if your order hasn't been processed yet but after that you'll have to wait until it arrives and then pay the postage to return it to us.
The Pop-up Tent
How do I fold up my tent?
Pop-up tents can be tricky to pack down if you don't know the correct technique. Attempting to fold your tent without knowing how can damage it.
The best way to learn is by following our easy folding tutorial video. We have tried and tested many different folding methods and come up with the most fool proof one.
we strongly suggest practicing before your first outing, to make sure things go smoothly when the time comes to getting out and about with your little ones.
If you learnt his technique and your tent doesn't fold easily using it please reach out for help- it should be super easy and if not its likely faulty. We are always happy to help a customer troubleshoot or replace a badly behaving tent.
How should I clean and store my tent?
To clean your tent, spot clean with a damp cloth or sponge and mild soapy water before leaving to dry in the sun. Avoid contact with any chemicals and chlorinated water as much as possible.
After each use, make sure the tent fabric is completely dry before storing away. If your tent is damp, we suggest reopening the tent once you get home and leaving it to air dry before packing it away in its carrier bag and storing indoors until next time.
How do I secure my tent to the ground?
Depends where you are!
At the beach? We've designed the tent with outer sand pockets on all three sides. Just fill them up to add some weight and keep it from budging.
If you're somewhere with grass or dirt, there are four fabric loops in the corners that can used with any standard tent pegs to secure the tent to the ground.
My tent does not look right/ is not folding easily- what should I do?
If your tent does not look symmetrical, does not stand up straight or fold down easily there's something wrong with it. Please reach out if you notice anything that doesn't look or feel right and we will be more than happy to help out. We are always happy to replace a badly behaving tent!
