Sports reviews of ABO Gear Instent Max Shelter

Customer Review: Very well-thought-out
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I've only used this once but I was really impressed with it. It's light and easy to carry when still enclosed in the storage bag. It lets you zip up all the doors and windows, which is great if you want to change clothes.

I previously tried another manufacturer's shelter that was advertised as "pop-up" but that required a complicated procedure assembling together segments of pole and running them through the shelter. I'm not camping, I just want to sit on the beach! In contrast, the Instent Max is really set up almost instantaneously, it truly does just pop open. It has large pockets on the side that allow you to put a sizable amount of sand into them, weighting the shelter down very securely without the need for stakes (though they are supplied as well if you are on grass or another surface). My wife and I were searching for the instructions until we realized that they were attached to the inside of the storage bag on an indestructible piece of fabric that could not rip out. Smart!

The shelter felt quite substantial for a product of this nature. The frame poles seemed secure and sturdy.

Taking the shelter down afterwards was fairly easy as well, and fast. We had a little difficulty initially getting it to collapse, but as the directions note, don't force it, rather open it up and try again. It was down and put into its compact storage bag within a few minutes.

I look forward to using this more, and my overall view is that the people that designed this put a lot of thought into small details like mentioned above. I guess the only downside is that it seemed kind of expensive for what it is, but you get what you pay for.

Description of ABO Gear Instent Max Shelter

The Instent MAX is bigger with 2 doors for easy entry. Up in seconds, down in a flash. Air vents and screens on every side. Sand bags around the side for stability. Includes pegs to secure to ground.
Enjoy full protection from the sun or rain while hanging out at the beach or campsite with the ABO Gear InsTent Max shelter. The bigger brother of the InsTent, the InsTent Max offers 41 square feet of covered floor space--enough room for you, your spouse, a couple of kids, and even the family dog to sit comfortably.


The InsTent Max shelter offers comfortable UV protection for one person or a small family.
The shelter is easy to set up, with a unique pop-up design that opens in seconds. Once you're inside, the shelter offers comfortable protection from the elements, with a sewn-in water-resistant floor, air vents and a shutter for maximum airflow, and a zippered door for total containment. And the InsTent Max will stay secure even on blustery days thanks to the staking system and outside pockets, which fill with stand for extra stability. Other features include a sturdy Elasti-Cord system and interior storage compartments for your sunscreen, playing cards, and other items.

The shelter, which comes with its own carrying bag for easy transport, measures 6.4 by 4.3 by 6.4 feet (W x H x D) and weighs 8 pounds.

About ABO Gear
Short for Australian Beach Outdoor, ABO Gear opened in 1995 with a mission of making outdoor life more comfortable. In the ensuing years, the company has moved in a more pet-focused, sustainability-oriented direction. In 2004, ABO Gear entered the pet market, providing pets with the same rugged, high-performance, waterproof gear as their owners. In 2008, ABO launched a Natural Products Division focused on "green and pet gear." The division's Aussie Naturals brand features products made using jute, wool, cotton, coconut fiber, natural gum rubber, and leather. ABO Gear continued its movement with its Outback Jack line. Inspired by watching tons of scrap fabric being trucked to landfills, Outback Jack products are made of discarded fabric given a second life as dog toys, travel bowls, and more.

ABO Gear tests all its pet products on employee's dogs and maintains a partnership with Barking Hound Village Foundation (BHVF) in Atlanta. BHVF rescues dogs slated for euthanasia in local city and counter shelters and transports them to no-kill rescues across the East Coast. ABO Gear is currently based in downtown Decatur, Georgia, with a 50,000-square-foot warehouse and fulfillment center in Murphy, North Carolina.
