Front Runner 3 Person Roof Top Tent

Take a look at this Front Runner roof top tent. If you are someone that regularly goes on overlanding trips or would even like to take a couple of days off to go camping this is a perfect roof top tent for you. This is a 3 person roof top tent which is one of the lightest roof top tents on the market.

Key Features: 

  • Sleeps 3 (2 adults and a child or pet)
  • Water-repellant 260g 600d poly/cotton ripstop body
  • Lightest roof top tent on the market, only 43kgs/93 lbs
  • Includes a 2" thick high-density foam mattress with a washable cover
  • Includes ladder made of extruded aluminium, stainless steel, and nylon-6
  • Panoramic windows as well as the skylight vent windows

A 3-season camping tent, the Front Runner Feather-lite can withstand harshest weather conditions such as rain, heat, and heavy winds. This RTT originated in South Africa, where durability tests are conducted, and proudly, the Front Runner tent conquered them all. With canvas materials such as Oxford 400D, a polyester fabric that's impenetrable by water, and gives off that nice, continuous airflow, the Feather-lite can surely provide you peace of mind when outdoor camping. 

The Front Runner tents body is made out of water-repellent 260g 600d poly/cotton ripstop and has an aluminum sheeting and foam core side rail tent base. It comes with mounting tracks that can be mounted front-to-back or side-to-side depending on your needs and even the universal mounting plates and all necessary hardware is included.

Lightest Roof Top Tent

It holds the record for the lightest roof top tent, the lightest soft shell tent to be exact in the market weighing only 93 lbs,  the Feather-lite contributes little to less fuel consumption. This also enables the roof tent to be set up by a single person in a matter of minutes. Pair it with a Front Runner Roof Rack,  and absolutely, this combination will deliver you outstanding performance and a worry-free adventure!

This Frontrunner featherlite roof top tent is extremely easy to set up. You only need 5 minutes to do so, even less if you get a hang of it over time. This light roof top tent comes with a comfortable high-density foam mattress (6cm / 2.25" thick) with washable moisture & mildew-resistant polyester oxford fabric cover. Pair that with an insuated foundation of this Front Runner roof top tent and you get an environment in which you can fall asleep like a baby and get rest for the upcoming day.

    It has a number of features such as storage pockets where you can store your shoes or other camping supplies or even toiletries, a Sky Window that lets in extra sunlight during the day and is perfect for night-sky viewing, and exemplary ventilation that reduces condensation during day or night. This roof tent also features panoramic windows that let you enjoy the scenery around you. Adding the Annex is highly recommended.

    Thanks to its sliding aluminum ladder you and your fellow campers have an easy way of going in and out of your Front Runner roof top tent. They have a weight limit of 180 kg or 400 lb which is more than enough to support even two people at the same time. However, we do not recommend that more than one person uses the ladder at a time as it is not safe. 

    The great thing about this Front Runner tent ladder is that it folds and is packed away inside the tent so it does not take up extra space inside your vehicle. Also, another thing that you should keep in mind is that the ladder can only go as high as 2m. So if you do install the tent higher than that you should acquire a tent extension ladder. 

     

    Why the Front Runner Roof Top Tent is Perfect for Budget-Conscious Overlanders

    At 93 lbs and under $1,500, the Front Runner Feather-Lite Roof Top Tent opens up rooftop camping to smaller vehicles and tighter budgets without sacrificing the essentials.

     

    93 Pounds Changes Everything

    At just 93 lbs, the Front Runner Roof Top Tent is one of the lightest soft-shell tents available. That's 50-80 lbs lighter than traditional rooftop tents, which means better fuel economy (1-2 MPG saved), improved handling on technical terrain, and compatibility with smaller SUVs like Subaru Crosstreks or Toyota RAV4s with dynamic roof ratings around 110-150 lbs.

    The low 7.87-inch profile reduces wind resistance dramatically, keeping highway driving quieter and more efficient. Your vehicle stays composed instead of feeling top-heavy on off-camber trails.

     

    Budget-Friendly Without Cutting Critical Corners

    The Front Runner Roof Top Tent costs roughly half what premium brands charge. You're getting quality materials: 400D Oxford fabric that's waterproof and UV-resistant, durable YKK zippers, aluminum poles, and a functional 2.25-inch mattress. The tent sleeps two adults comfortably with 87" x 55" interior dimensions.

    The trade-off? Initial assembly takes 2-3 hours (bolting rails, attaching ladder system). Once assembled, setup takes 5 minutes. For half the price of premium competitors, that's fair. The optional annex adds valuable space for changing, gear storage, or weather protection.

     

    Built From South African Overland Experience

    Front Runner started in South Africa, where overlanding means serious business across challenging terrain. That heritage shows in practical design: reinforced stitching at stress points, proper ventilation to prevent condensation, and a low-profile design tested across African deserts and mountain passes.

    The Front Runner Roof Top Tent pairs perfectly with Front Runner roof rack systems, creating an integrated setup. Add an awning and storage boxes for a complete adventure platform at thousands less than premium-only options.

     

    Ideal For First-Time Buyers or Smaller Rigs

    The Front Runner Roof Top Tent makes perfect sense if you're new to rooftop camping without wanting massive investment, running a smaller vehicle that can't handle 150+ lb tents, or building a budget overland rig.

    The mattress is adequate at 2.25 inches (some owners add foam toppers), and it's designed for weekend warriors and regular camping rather than extreme expeditions. If you want the absolute easiest setup or most luxurious materials, there are pricier options. But for a functional, reliable rooftop tent without the premium price tag, the Front Runner delivers.

      Reasonably adequate room divider
      Size: 4 Panel-88'', Color: Beige
      I'm reviewing this as I assemble it. Couple things: 1. I didn't expect as much assembly. I've ordered dividers before and they more-or-less came as one unit. Sometimes the panels needed screwing together. These require complete assembly and come largely as three rods: two make up vertical columns and snap together. Another one (called part "C") makes the horizontal columns and you have two of these per panel (one attaches to part "A" and the other part "B"). These parts are metal with a plastic shim. Using the wood screws to attach to part "C" is a real pain in the neck. There's not much holding the panel in place so it's a little tricky. One tactic I've found while I'm assembling that works for the initial connections from parts A and B to their respective "C" rods is to hold the screw in place with a screw driver and then rotating the rod around the screw. This will do a number on your hands if you aren't wearing gloves. This obviously doesn't work when completing the connection. Using a driller driver on this is really near impossible because there isn't anything you can use to secure it in place. You can use it on the first panel, but as it gets longer, it becomes increasingly difficult and because it isn't wood, it's really tight. I considered drilling larger pilot holes but since there are only 4x4=16 screws I need to screw in, I just decided to use my screw driver to complete it. 2. Also related to assembly. When completing the panels (attaching parts "A" and "B" to parts "C" that have the cloth cover on it), you have to be careful that when you tighten that side that it isn't loosening the other side. Because the pilot holes are so tight, you can end up rotating the rod, which rotates it in the same direction as looser on the original side. Having someone hold the "C" rod in place while you screw it in is probably the easiest approach. I didn't have a 2nd person, so I just had to keep flipping back and forth and tightening both sides as I screwed it in. Not the worlds biggest deal, but annoying nonetheless. 3. The way the instructions are written, they seem to suggest building this thing progressively; that is, you do panel 1, then 2, connect them together, then do 3 and connect it, etc. I took a different route that I suspect saved me quite a bit of trouble, and I assembled all four panels first and THEN connected everything together. 4. For the love of God make sure you check that the plastic tip is on the same side for every panel. Otherwise, you have to take one side apart again and reverse it. On the bright side, if this happens, you've essentially bored out the pilot holes to be the correct size... which is having me question if I shouldn't have just bored them out to the appropriate width in the first place. 5. Attaching all of the panels together is also an enormous pain in the ass unless you happen to have an 88" long elevated surface. Attaching the legs either requires you to elevate one side, which will invariably twist the inexplicably cheap material in the bottom connectors... or you can attach them sideways... or you can put this thing upright, having two people hold the panels in place while you use the allen wrench to tighten the bolts on the underside. None of those are particularly great options. NOW on to the utility itself. 1. The panels do let some light through (I didn't believe their advertising, and that was one of the reasons that I bought beige, is that I wanted it to not be too dark). They aren't transparent though, so it isn't that far off from their description. They functionally work great, and keep the mess of wires hidden and when I'm sitting at my desk, actually reflect quite a bit of light into my office. Great! 2. My wife has described these as "the most hideous piece of furniture ever conceived of by man." So it does not have spouse approval factor. Granted, she will seldom be in my office area, so that isn't the end of the world. 3. These are really hard to align in a way that doesn't look a little tacky. There are some plastic connectors but they don't do a bang up job of keeping these in place. Each panel is slightly tilted and it's... quite obvious. I may at some point make my own improvements to these to help make them more level. It's not a particularly expensive product so I wasn't expecting much so it's fine and I'm not going to ding them on the rating because of it. All said, would I buy this product again? Probably not. It's assembly was ~90 minutes which is about 75 minutes longer than I was anticipating spending on this (not including the 5 minute writeup that I'm doing here). But am I going to return it? Also no, if for no other reason I'd be just as annoyed taking it apart and putting it in the original box to return it.

      if you are going to be moving them a lot, buy something more sturdy.
      Color: Black, Size: Wheel-6 Panel
      I use these at our churchc. They are pretty good, not terribly study and the screw that hold the faabric have pulled out in a couple of places. But they wqould work especially well if you were not constantly moving them as we do. They are a bit of a pain to assemble.
