I purchased my original REDVERZ expedition M/C tent at the BMWMOA rally in Salem, OR somewhere on or after 2008 and have used it consistently throughout the years all over the US. in all types of weather. Never any problems. It is ready and waiting for the next trip. Easy to set up, even during heavy rain, Due to wanting to try the different sleeping bay orientation in the Gen 3 Atacama, I purchased the new version last week and the tent plus additional accessories arrived in four days. Of course, I also purchased the additional ground sheets and another 50 liter bag to pack everything. I now have two very similar tents/bags ready to go. I should have about 40 to 50 nights in the new version by November 2024 and will write another review at that time.

Let's start by saying that I have spent plenty of time in the "just big enough to sleep in" types of tents and used an accessory fly for additional space "protected" from the weather. To give the only concern first....this tent is fairly large packed down, and fairly heavy in comparison to the backpacking tents I have used. That said, I have used this at a multiday "Motofest" where there was rain every day, including the "hangout time" in the evening. I can't say how pleased I am to have had the large vestibule to put up a backpacking chair, and open a flap, remain completely dry and watch the rain coming down outside. There is loads of room for gear in the vestibule or in the sleeping area. I did not need to "hide" my bike in any of the situations where I have camped but am certain that I will in the future which is why I purchased this tent. I am aware that there are other tents which have copied this design. I would buy this one again. Everything is well thought out, and executed with the highest quality. The poles are high quality, believe me - the tent is completely waterproof for sure, whether you bring your bike in or not, that vestibule is key to having better sanity when confined to the tent in bad weather. Lastly, I am 6 foot, and 65 years old. I LOVE being able to to stand fully upright when I am getting gear on and off inside the tent!

Tent was nice and set up as advertised Very roomy. The tent seems well made for the most part. The loops to hold the doors/screens open could have been smaller. I will sew them smaller for a better fit on my tent I think.

I'm 76 and needed a tent that was easy to set up and take down and pack. The Atacama is easier than my Expedition Tent and just a little heavier BUT I can stand up in the Atacama and we really enjoy the "garage" which we call "vestibule" since we do not cycle; we use it for airplane and car camping. I really appreciate all the outside tie-downs since the winds here in Arizona can be over 45 mph gusting. I like the tie-down pockets EXCEPT they are hard to open. If the velcro was sewn to the side so I could get my fingers under to open, it would be a lot easier and save time - especiallly when it's cold; OR perhaps a couple tabs for pulling the pockets open. Otherwise, I only wish I had ordered BOTH ground cloths when I got the tent! I ordered the garage cloth after I discovered how nicely it snaps into place. Overall it's a great design and well-built tent and I'm very happy with it. My wife says it should have windows and netting on at least one side of the garage but I'm not convinced of either of those since that would increase the price. Also we use it in the winter with a Little Buddy propane heater in the garage....works great.

Spent 2 days in intense mountain weather lightning storms hail and high winds this tent stayed put and kept me dry.

This is a great tent for solo camping - e.g., bike rallies and road trips. Don't even notice the weight when strapped across the pillion seat. Takes only 5-10 minutes for one person to set it up, depending on how many tent ropes you decide to use (I only use all the ropes when it is windy). I am 6' 2" and can stand inside the garage without any problem. I don't use the garage for the bike (I just park the bike outside at night with a half-cover). Instead, the garage serves as a fantastic covered patio...nice not having to enter the sleeping tent from the outside. Plus, there is so much more room in the sleeping area because you can store side cases and other gear in garage. In fact, I even McGiver''d a coat/helmet hanger for the garage using an old camera tripod...packs easily and legs pull out high enough to keep jacket and helmet off the ground. I recommend getting the awning kit also...great place to sit/cook/hang out. I know the sleeping area is big enough to accommodate 2 or even 3 people but I bought it for solo travel specifically because I wanted the room. After any years crawling into tiny tents, this is true comfort. BTW - the quality of Redverz is superb. Everything is built to last many adventures.

Purchased this to encourage my wife to join me on longer moto trips. Not only that that work out wonderfully, but I'm using it on a regular basis when camping solo (it is a GREAT home base style setup). Feels high quality, all the zippers are super smooth, and I stayed 3 nights in wind and rain without a drop penetrating the outer shell. There's something weird (and wonderful) about waking up to your bike safely next door.

My wife and I just returned from our second trip with the Atacama. First trip was a one night stay so other than ease of set-up, tear down, there wasn’t much to report. This trip we spent 4 nights in it and we’re sold. We had rain on and off, including one 2 hour storm with heavy rainfall and some wind. We set up our chairs and table in the garage area, where all our riding gear was already stored, and had PLENTY of room. And we stayed bone dry. We tour and camp 2up on a single bike so weight is a constant concern. At 14lbs there’s really nothing else out there that I have found that affords us so much space and peace of mind in all weather. If I would ask for anything it would be more off ground storage and hooks to suspend lights and what not. A minimal concern though, as we are very happy with this tent. Also, at 50+ years old, sleeping comfort is important and we should be able to fit a queen size air mattress in the sleeping area. Our ultralight sleep pads didn’t do the job…Great gear, I’d recommend it to anyone

I reviewed and did researched online about the Atacama Tent in 2019. I looked at You Tube videos and finally purchased it 2021. My camping trips have been without my motorcycle for now and the weather completely sunny every trip. I set it up in my backyard after receipt and very happy so far with my purchase. The tent was very easy to setup. I found stacking the wind side down with two stacks and pulling the opposite end, was the easiest way to set it up. There was also a video online about this. Mainly camping in State parks and so far no issues. I camped with two Teton cots, Yeti cooler, a chair, two storage containers and aluminum table inside the tent. After two months of use though, no rain or heavy winds yet to further evaluate it, comments and suggestions: 1. The inner vestibule main zipper doors in the sleeping area sits a little to high off the ground. Tripped a few times entering and exiting from not raising my foot up high enough. Wider opening near the bottom would be nice. 2. There is a noticeable gap of space 4-6 inches average around the vestibula and the tent itself, especially the roof area. The bugs easily got between the vestibule and tent because of the gap. The tie downs stretch a lot and seems too tight attached to the tent as if the vestibule should be taller and wider. There were no attachment loops in the center, just the outside. Had no problems though and very happy of the enclosure because it kept the mosquitos out when inside 3. The two garage door entrances are nice and although I also purchased the awning kit, had no use for it yet. Great if there was bug zipper screens on the doors would be a nice modification. Currently rolled up was fine but you couldn't keep all the bugs out. The tent gets hot in the sun with the doors down and it's nice if you could sit down in the garage area bug proofed by two additional zipper screen doors. 4. Both ground sheets are a plus and keep everything inside completely dry. I removed both sheets after tear downs to dry our the bottom of the sheets before packing, great groundsheets. Packing the tent also with groundsheets attached was also no problem but only when completely dry. 5. I own a Ducati Multistrada 1200S and although I haven't placed it inside the garage, know it would fit but area tight. 5. Single person in the tent with two full size dogs great. Perfect for one or two people is fine with this tent. 6. On average, about 75% of The bottom edges of the tent around sit higher off the ground. This was noticeable for the garage area. The outside center of the sleeping area has an elastic tie down strap for a tent stack but still kept the edges high off the ground. In general very happy so far with this tent and excited to have it when camping using my truck. Single motorcycle rider now but looking forward when I camp using my motorcycle. This review is after three months of use. I hope continued use and exposure to more what mother nature decides will further determine its quality and built but so far a very happy customer.
