I`d like to see a head to head comparison between this shelter and the similarly priced and sized Overlandish Basecamp V2. And then a follow up after a year or so. That would be a Heavyweight Championship.
I’m a former tent camper, one of the big 12x12’ cabin tents. My husband and I got to hating the whole experience of packing up to go to the campsite, then setting up the tent with all its poles, and all the other camp gear, then taking it all down this tent was huge, and please no rain! It did nothing to insulate sound, heat, light or cold. There would never be a comfortable nights sleep in it. I sold it a few years ago to a Boy Scout den mother😂 . Then we went to cabin camping, much nicer, but again, back to reserving ahead, and pricier. Since then, I inherited a Prius, and tried overnight in that at a campground, and stealth at a truck travel center. The Prius is superior to a tent as there is sound and light insulation, and climate control through the hybrid system. But, it’s limiting in space especially for two, it’s definitely an option. Now this shift pod is something I would consider for tenting, but hesitant to risk the money for experiences more of the same like with my cabin tent, though the shift pod will be easier to set up/take down. Noise, light, heat cold in shift pod like the nylon tents? Is it a risk for theft if you leave it all day doing adventures? Thanks!
It is still a tent but definitely gives more sound/thermal protection than a nylon tent. Try looking at the used market for deals! Thanks for the comment.
I've been contemplating moving away from my RTT to something that won't tie me down, in other words, a ground tent again. Although, that one night outside Silverton when something big was rubbing up against the Xterra while the wife and I were in the RTT made me glad we weren't on the ground. A heavy rainstorm in the early AM washed away any tracks that might have been left.
I just got my ShiftPod III after using a ShiftPod II. I noticed right away that they put handles on the bag for ease of transport. That is definitely a cool thing as the ShiftPod II didn't have those
I feel like 10 pounds is definitely not a huge difference when loading a car. But it does make a difference as far as loading/unloading and packing/unpacking it at the campsite, so 10 lbs is DEFINITELY appreciated!
We always figure a few pounds save over many pieces of gear adds up. You have a good point that the 10 pounds is much more relevant when lifting the tent above head to load it. Thanks for the comment‼️
I got my Shiftpod 3 the beginning of this year (Jan 2023), and immediately set it up in my backyard, in the snow, to test it out. I promptly slipped in the ice while testing it, hurt my back, and am now scheduled for back surgery this January (2024). That said, I was able to get it setup prior to injuring myself, and I immediately noticed how bad the condensation was with myself, a dog, and a Big Buddy Heater set to low. Horrible, even with the ventilation. Also, I have discovered that deploying the 'blast shield' (actually more of a rain fly), keeps the tent cooler in hot weather, and drier in wet weather, as it covers the window ports, yet that section of the shield can be tied up, or back for a view out the window it covers. I have not given up on it though, I see lots of advantages to this tent. So I went out and purchased a Propex HS2800 propane gas heater, that I plan on setting up as a 'suitcase heater', that can be used either with this tent, or just for heating the inside of my pickup. This heater only heats the air from inside the tent while venting all the combusted gases to the outside, like a diesel heater does. Hopefully this will solve all or most of the condensation problems, as the entire ceiling and at least half the walls were saturated with moisture. I considered a diesel heater, but I already carry propane, and want to avoid carrying yet another type of fuel. I have the heater ordered, but it has not yet shipped. My hope is, that this will turn what I would term a 3.5 season tent, into a very comfortable fully 4 season tent.
Thanks for the comment. Good information on the blast shield. The dry heat from that heater should help solve the condensation, but let us know once you try it out.
High hopes for the Propex. Still in the recuperation stage from surgery but I have it almost ready to test as a standalone unit prior to a full test on a campout with the Shiftpod. Did I say, "Getting old is hell, and it really sucks at times?" Well it does. That said, even at 70, I am looking forward to my next camping trip!@@RogueOverland
I just recieved my Shiftpod 3. I have been testing it out in my backyard for several days. Condensation does get bad, though I admit I have been running propane for heat in it for several days during below freezing conditions and snow. I slept in it one night and had droplets of water fall on my face from the corners on the ceiling. It was not excessive and did not interfere with sleep. The doors are just a bit too small for me, as I have physical challenges, but not too bad. Tent seems to do a great job at keeping in the heat, as far as tents go anyway. It doesn't seem like packing it up wet for one or two days would be an issue, but definitely would not store it that way. When I set it up initially, I set it up on the snow, which created a large amount of condensation on the floor. If I do that again, I will leave the floor unzipped, and use the floor panel as a dry island in a corner until the snow floor melts away, and then zip it in. I am over 6 feet, and it is really nice to be able to fully stand up in the tent, especially for those middle of the night nature calls. The tent has a wide skirt on it, which is good for windy areas if you weigh the skirt down with soil or rocks. The tent is well thought out with multiple tie off points, and included accessories for securing and storing various items such as eyeglasses, wallets, keys, etc. I will probably be getting one or two of the vestibules, just for extra outside covered storage. I am anxious to take this to the Alvord Desert for a few days camping this summer.
@@RogueOverland I ended up slipping on ice and hurting my back and hip while going in and out. I have slept in it 4 nights now. I figure it's better to test it out prior to going out in the field. I planned on packing it up today to figure out how to pack it into/onto my pickup with the rest of my kit. It is still standing in my back yard, and I have been able to see how it does in 40-50 mph winds, as it gets quite windy here at times. Some of the Shiftpod videos seem to hint at the fact it only takes 2 minutes to setup. While this is true for the basic structure, DO NOT think that the tent is now secure to spend the night in it. Nor is it enough to simply pound in the stakes for the sidewalls where the ropes attach. You need to also pound in stakes through the skirt at the corners where the grommets are, and the stakes should be pounded all the way in, or close to all the way in at the skirt. I did not have stakes at the skirt to start with during the wind, and it pulled one stake out, and along with the rope they got flung somewhere???? and have not found it yet. I would not go so far as to say it is the perfect 4 season tent, but maybe a 3.5 season tent, with a bit of a learning curve, maybe a 4. Seems Shiftpod would do well to make a tent adapted for a tiny woodstove, or a diesel heater might be good. something with dry heat. I do recommend a test run in this tent before taking it out camping. Having one of those highly absorbent cloths that wring out easily might also be a good idea for wiping down walls and ceiling as well.
Looks great! However, the biggest reason I’d hesitate to buy this - not enough windows!! I also very much want to be able to star gaze at night. I realize this is considered a shelter, and an excellent one of that. Yet, I wonder if they can find a way to provide great Protection from the elements, but allow more light and views. That’s half the reason we go camping, isn’t it? If they do that, I’m sold!! One more quick thought, hopefully none of the fabric and ingredients in the tent are toxic. I’ll look on their website to confirm.
There are plenty of thin nylon tents with shells that are literally all screens and a full coverage rain fly, if you want windows for stargazing! Windows on the shift pod would defeat its purpose. I will not camp ever again in those thin nylon tents that let all the light, and heat of the sun in.
Nice vid! Love the shifpod concept. Never understood the appeal to a RTT (climbing up and down a small ladder, leveling the vehicle, stuck at camp, etc). Are the deployment handles annoying in the wind? Seems like SPIII has issues with pole strength. They really came out hard about being gentle when deploying the pod. If you have to be extremely cautious when setting up a tent, its not a tent for me. I think I'll wait for the next iteration.
Inability to leave camp setup is definitely a drawback to a RTT. We didn’t notice any issue with the snacking against the tent at night but we also didn’t have any super windy days. It sounds like they have a binding issue if not deployed properly. We would advise deploying the tent as recommend by shiftpod. With that said we did the whole Colorado trip just yanking on the deployment handles and didn’t have any issues (we didn’t learn of the new deployment technique until after our trip). Thanks for the comment!
Awesome review yall! I was looking for input regarding the floor quality. Does the floor experience any water ingress during storming conditions? Campsites by my area often flood and I would love to know if the Shiftpod has a tub floor that resists water coming from below. Blessings to y’all and thanks for the video
We have never had any issues with water ingress. The floor does zip to the body of the tent so if the water were high enough it may come through the zipper, but at that level you would have issues with camp washing away.
I have been used the Siesta 4 tent for about 3 years and I never had condensation. One question for you guys: I bought the Siesta 4 because for many years I was looking for a tent system that let me camp in the desert an dont overheat in the inside. With the Siesta 4 I really solved the problem 100%, no wait, 1000% !!! I can set the tent under the sun direct for hours without any shadow from a surrounding tree, in the day, and I can sleep comfortably without feeling suffocated by the accumulated heat, because the Siesta 4 is more a standard tent in its design, it has a very nice big doors that you can open fully and let the air in. Now, for the Shiftpod, is this really the case ? I mean, can I put it under the sun for hours and it wont heat to the point that it will be uncomfortable to stay in during the day ? That's the main feature I'm looking. The problem I'm just seeing is that the Shifpod only has one door, it would be nice if it has at least two so the air can properly circulate. Regards
Good question. It goes without saying that someone’s comfort level at different temperatures is subjective. That being said we are from the southwest where heat is a major issue; we have yet to find any tent that is great in the heat. The Shiftpod does ok with all the windows/doors open to promote airflow, but on a 95 degree day we wouldn’t call it cool inside the tent. The shiftpod does have two doors. We hope that helps.
what's your experience in rain (weather heavy down pour, steady and drizzle) without the rainfly/ blast shield? Is there any noticeable water intrusion?
I have used it for a lot of years, and i'm really disappointed on the condensation. Used it in multiple states all four seasons. Winter time you cannot use a heater in it. Extremely poor ventilation with only three people.Very disappointed In cost for convenience. Biggest problems are condensation and not being able to run a buddy heater due to the telation
Thanks for the feedback on your experience. Buddy heaters are tough because they put moister in the air. We had to crack several of the windows when running a buddy heater to keep the condensation down.
If you can open all the windows and doors it’s only as bad as how hot it is. If it’s windy or rainy and you have to have the doors closed, then it is hot.
If you watch some of our adventure videos like this on you can see it in use: ua-cam.com/video/i0uJu0oztLo/v-deo.html We are always trying to improve. What type of clips are you looking for?
Had the shiftpod for over 5 years. This video is about our experience with shiftpod over the last 5 years and the updates for the shiftpod 3. Thanks for watching.
I just found the Shift Pod about a week ago because I have been looking for the absolute BEST Four Season shelter because I want to combine it with my invention, a Rocket Stove (in the-ground) Earthen Thermal Mass Heating System! It will heat a 100 +/- shelter easily, AND It will help keep it cool in summer also because Earth temps are always lower than ambient temperature... Tested in multiple locations King Of The Hammers Burning Man, a lot of emergency situations they've improving intestine that's what I want to work with. They used YKK zippers and carbon graphite hubs and struts I was so impressed with her system just blown away like I had envisioned, EXACTLY what I envisioned An Ice Fishing Shelter Hub on steroids, that will be good for all ALL seasons Cold and hot weather both and high winds which I think we're going to be having to deal with more and more they're like a perfect emergency shelter and that's what I've been looking for for 20 years actually since I had a picture burned into my mind about 40 years ago of a bunch of tents across a pasture and I KNEW that they were refugees and if I didn't do something to help them they would die and then in the year 2000, 20 years later, I had a powerful, -like real-time real-life Technicolor -like-I-was-there, Vision of an underground house and a homeless Family. That shook up my world, It charged me up and set me on a course that's included a website, a book, and a UA-cam channel ALL with the same name; How To Get Out Of Babylon and ALL trying to figure out how to help homeless people in horrible and emergency situations. I think this is what I've come to other than building houses underground we need to have some shelter that will absolutely stand up to high winds and snow and ice and extreme temperatures; we will see heat and cold and this is like the most PERFECT thing I've ever found; "Space Age Tent for Space Age Conditions!!" I absolutely LOVE the fact that Shift Pod has already been tested in so many great locations and conditions; King of the Hammers and Burning Man (just heard Christian center video that it was born at Burning Man they built it to withstand high winds and that's one of my biggest concerns) and mountain climbing and emergency rescue situations and disaster relief that's exactly what I've been looking for for so many years for 20 years now the perfect Four Season tent shelter for emergency situations and my gosh they've designed and built exactly what I wanted, what I had envisioned / designed in my head!! Carbon graphite struts and hubs, YKK zippers etc top quality materials everything space blanket materials for reflecting Heat and cold; "Space Age Tent Made With Space Age Materials for Space Age Conditions!!!"
I`d like to see a head to head comparison between this shelter and the similarly priced and sized Overlandish Basecamp V2.
And then a follow up after a year or so.
That would be a Heavyweight Championship.
We love our shiftpod. Great customer service with them too.
Very tru! Thanks for the input.

Thanks for watching.
My buddy bought one and got rid of his Shitpod after a season
People would probably like to hear what he didn’t like. Would you mind letting us know.
I just found the Shift Pod about a week ago because I have been looking for the absolute BEST Four Season shelter because I want to combine it with my invention, a Rocket Stove
(in the-ground) Earthen Thermal Mass Heating System! It will heat a 100 +/- shelter easily, AND
It will help keep it cool in summer also because Earth temps are always lower than ambient temperature...
Tested in multiple locations King Of The Hammers Burning Man, a lot of emergency situations they've improving intestine that's what I want to work with. They used YKK zippers and carbon graphite hubs and struts I was so impressed with her system just blown away like I had envisioned, EXACTLY what I envisioned An Ice Fishing Shelter Hub on steroids, that will be good for all ALL seasons Cold and hot weather both and high winds which I think we're going to be having to deal with more and more they're like a perfect emergency shelter and that's what I've been looking for for 20 years actually since I had a picture burned into my mind about 40 years ago of a bunch of tents across a pasture and I KNEW that they were refugees and if I didn't do something to help them they would die and then in the year 2000, 20 years later, I had a powerful, -like real-time real-life Technicolor

I think this is what I've come to other than building houses underground we need to have some shelter that will absolutely stand up to high winds and snow and ice and extreme temperatures; we will see heat and cold and this is like the most PERFECT thing I've ever found;
"Space Age Tent for Space Age Conditions!!"
I absolutely LOVE the fact that Shift Pod has already been tested in so many great locations and conditions; King of the Hammers and Burning Man (just heard Christian center video that it was born at Burning Man they built it to withstand high winds and that's one of my biggest concerns) and mountain climbing and emergency rescue situations and disaster relief that's exactly what I've been looking for for so many years for 20 years now the perfect Four Season tent shelter for emergency situations and my gosh they've designed and built exactly what I wanted, what I had envisioned / designed in my head!! Carbon graphite struts and hubs, YKK zippers etc top quality materials everything space blanket materials for reflecting Heat and cold; "Space Age Tent Made With Space Age Materials for Space Age Conditions!!!"
Thanks for the feedback. Sounds like you found your tent!
The lighting is atrocious in this video. Please do better.
Thanks for the feedback.
