“It feels like a treehouse”
I bought it mainly for its weight but also for the easy set up. It feels like a treehouse, windows on all sides for a nice breeze and the windows on top are great for getting 360° views. Only takes 15min to set up, no leakage when raining and with the window awnings over 2 of the windows, you can have the windows open when raining without getting rain inside. All in all, really happy with the purchase!

“Centerpiece for my Rivian camping setup”
The Air Cruiser has been a really fun centerpiece for my Rivian camping setup! It's stylish, sturdy, and the setup/takedown couldn't be easier. Just having good gear like this makes me want to get out there and explore!

“Compliments My Rivian Perfectly”
I’ve used a large hard shell rooftop tent for a number of seasons but was forced to leave it on the vehicle year round due to its weight. When I discovered the Air Cruiser’s weight I was cautiously optimistic. This would allow me to remove it off season and not have the wear and tear from taking it everywhere. I was also looking forward to being able to use covered garages again.
When the Air Cruiser arrived, the installation on the vehicle couldn’t be simpler. We were off on our first camping trip with it the next day. While it hadn’t been a factor in my decision to purchase the tent, initially, I underestimated the value of the use of compressed air as the structure for the frame. I ended up finding it so easy to set up and take down the tent that I was able to use the vehicle during the day when with the previous tent I would leave it set up on the vehicle and that was that, a significant compromise with roof top tents. With the Air Cruiser auto-inflating, it gave me more time to do other camp setup tasks.
My kids sleep in the tent while I’m in the vehicle below. They love how tall the interior volume is and how the large sunroof allows for light and visibility. I could barely get them down for breakfast. I like that there are no support rods to hold up canopies, which on my last tent would pop out and damaged the roof more than once. The Air Cruiser compliments my Rivian perfectly.

“This "Downsize" Was Such An Upgrade”
I downsized from a tear drop trailer with bells and whistles I never used, to my Air Cruiser. I intuitively felt it was the right decision for my Subaru Forester, but this “downsize” was SUCH an UPGRADE!!! I am a single mom to a 5-year old boy. This roof top tent is perfect for us and my draw to dispersed camping. It keeps us mobile to go beyond just campgrounds. I feel an extra sense of security being elevated off the ground, and it is SO easy to set up once installed on the roof. My son absolutely loves it.

“The Air Cruiser Has Been Everything We Hoped”
My son and I decided on the air-cruiser because of its weight and use of air to set it up. This intrigued us and so far it has been great. There was a slight problem with sliding the support bracket on one side and I could not be more pleased with the awesome customer service. It might be the best I’ve ever experienced, just amazing.
We have only used it for one overnight trip so far but it was great. The light weight makes it very manageable for 2 people to lift and mount on your vehicle. Sets up in about 4 minutes, large interior, clear roof for star gazing if wanted, lights and pockets to hold things. And the build quality appears excellent.
We plan to use this RTT for over-landing adventures in our Nissan Pro-4X pickup. We have a hard rolling bed cover and mounted it over the top of it and it is working great. It sits below the cab level for less wind resistance and possible dangers. We lined it up on one side of the bed so there is still room for gear on the other side - great for a kayak, SUP or outside shelter.
So far the Air-Cruiser has been everything we hoped for with better than expected customer service. I expect to get many years of use and wonderful memories with it. Let the journeys begin!

“It Literally Takes 20 Seconds... ”
I really like the air cruiser for a number of reasons. My brother got a very complicated trailer with a pop-up tent, and it takes him more than an hour, with two people working, to get it all set up. After my initial tinkering to get the air cruiser mounted, it literally takes 20 seconds to undo the straps and flip it open. Then it inflates in eight minutes by itself while you are doing something else. And then it’s done! I also really like the design, I have not tried it in the rain yet, but it looks like it will be good for that as well.

“My Two Young Daughters Love It! ”
I have been a loyal Cinch fan for many years. I was one of the first Kickstarter backers of their first product the original cinch tent about 6 years ago. That tent has kept our family warm, safe, and dry all this time, and the fact it was a popup saved us so much time setting up that we were thrilled.
When we saw the Air Cruiser announcement, I was in. If it provided the flexibility and same level of support and ease of use as the original tent we were in. As it was it's so easy to set up and my two young daughters love it. The blow-up aspect, the panoramic views and the LED lighting are great. I feel bad for my original cinch tent as it's not getting the love the Air Cruiser is at the moment. But we are not getting rid of that tent yet. We may just keep them both and for old time's sake I may just set it out back and sleep in it for the memories. When we saw the Air Cruiser announcement, I was in.

“Set Up And Pack Up Is The Quickest & Easiest Ever”
Set up and pack up is the quickest/ easiest I have ever had while camping. I was pleasantly surprised by how comfy the built in air mattress actually was where if wanting to travel light I don't feel the need for anything additional on top of my sleeping bag. My first test run was on a very wet and windy North Yorkshire night. Felt very sturdy and we kept dry there was dampness on the inside of walls but was more condensation than us getting leaked on. The built in light strip Is a great touch and the more we looked around the tent the more we appreciated the attention to the small details.`
