Yep. It’s good quality but the price could be lower.

For all those watching in 2024... the 23 Zero now has all these features included; shower holder, roof covering, even FLOOR covering (stake down 36" x36"), LED light, some toiletry pouches and what not. I guess they improved to keep up with their competitors. All in all good video tho! Came here looking for a review on it.

Thanks for the update.

Nice review. That is so much nicer than the 23 Zero. I would imagine it keeps the heat in better too. I think this video just cost me several hundred dollars 😉 Have you thought about mounting it on the tent?

@TsarTrail

Жыл бұрын

That might be an option. It might be open to the bottom if it’s too high. Alucab makes a taller shower tent for mounting to taller rigs. Not sure if it has a too tho.

Change your swinging arm on your rooftop tent and you'll get more height

True. Our struggle is that the tent walls are short. Raising the tent is not hard. It will just leave a wind gap at the bottom. In the summer it’s not a big deal but at 30 degrees it makes for a cold shower. Thanks!!!

I would have mounted it to the side of the roof top tent myself... it's designed to have a bit of a gap between the roof and the walls and that would give you the height you wanted.

Yes, it’s a good shower tent. Both are good. The Darche was a good upgrade for us.

Why not get one or two spring steel rods to bend or bow and place over the roof top for support... much like those old school tonneau cover for a truck bed... just drill two corresponding holes in the swing arms?

that's a really nice option for privacy but almost better to cut out the wind. the drawback is they are triple the price I paid for my Overland Vehicle Systems shower tent.

Looks like a quality piece of kit. Our car is very tight for space (Land Rover 110) , so I thought about using it to store the fridge at night. With the roof on it should be sheltered enough from rain . It would also reduce the noise in the car. I would probably run the LED light from a battery bank rather than a USB socket. Are you still happy with it?

@TsarTrail

We have been very happy with it with really only one exception. I wish it was taller from the ground up. With it snug to the ground it is a little short for me. In warmer temps it could be raised up but in cooler temps I like to avoid and gaps that could allow cool air in. So, we are selling our Darche and are installing at Joolca. It’s plenty tall. If I was a few inches shorter the Darche would be great. I’m 6’1”. Keep in mind that a hard rain will pool on to of any flat roofed tent or awning. This could cause the Darche roof to dump water inside and soak your fridge.

Understand you have the swing arm, but what if you mounted it on the side of the tent. Looks like you’d get plenty of height then. Thanks for sharing.

@TsarTrail

That is a possible future mount location. There are access points on the trailer to consider.

My 23Zero shower tent has an LED light and most of the other things the Darche has. Maybe it is a different model in Australia. The only thing I can see that is really missing from mine is a roof. That would be nice to have but the problem can really be fixed with a small tarp if I ever really need it.

They are typically made by trailer companies. 23Zero had one at one point. Not sure it they still do.

We like the Joolca better. We ordered ours several months ago. Hope to have it in a few weeks. The Darche is good but too short for me. The swing out arms also droop down but the Joolca arms are supposed to stay level. We will add a light strip to our Joolca. I hope the Joolca quality is as good as we hope.

We could. But a lot of the tent would be against the trailer and the tent would be in the way of storage boxes. But it could work. We have made some other mods that are working well.

They can be hung on the side draped over the top side of the tent. There is also a hanging area inside the tent. Or, in our case, we can set them on the trailer and unzip the access door to reach them. Lots of options. Same for a towel too.

Our idea is to have our shower tent protect from the ground to above the head. Avoiding any privacy issues and wind entering the the tent. Nothing ruins a warm shower like a 30 degree breeze.
