ROOF TOP TENT REVIEW: Armourdillo Hard Shell tent by BushBuck Outdoors 

Cheers James! Yep it’s nice and compact !!

Awesome! Loving mine, Just got back from another adventure. So practical and easy. I've definitely had a few convos at campsites already!

ThAnks bro 😎 🤙🤙

Too easy mate, happy you got something out of it

Thanks Avesh!!

Cheers Derek!!

Cheers Boyce

Cheers Beers Ed, don’t be put off by the roof top limits, once the ladder is extended can load 300kg!

Put 2 extra roof racks to spread the weight mate, should not be a problem on any car.

For what it's worth most roof bar weights are with driving safety limits in mind. Most can easily handle a roof tent with a couple in It when stationary

Got to hear mate

Chur 🤙🤙

This come up with a translate on mine 🤣🤣🤣😎

Hey get in touch with bush buck they had them put on. Cheers

Hey mate I just bought one from the warehouse it’s like a thick duvet type thing. It’s pretty good, but I guess a foam one might be better? Unsure. Good thing is I can fold it up and close inside shell so it stays there full time

Thanks for the comment Martin, glad you enjoyed the review!

Just a short Walk to the sea and the view was awesome from that spot 😊

Hey Joel, mate anything goes but a good quality rain jacket and warm under layers of good quality merino etc is key. I’m no expert in that field but staying warm and dry goes well for me, so just bringing extra merino thermals and socks etc is gold!

Hey mate I haven’t had it in and really really windy scenarios, but it’s been really good so far. Due to it being a nice heavier canvas there’s a lot less noise than traditional tents

Unsure on the company. as with most things products get ripped off/copied or the manufacturers sell the same product to different companies etc if not patented. I would consider contacting BushBuck Direct and see if they can shop direct to you which I'm sure they can.

Hey Daniel, A lot of people have alerted us to the fact that the 23Zero “Armadillo” Rooftop Tent looks very similar to the Bushbuck Armourdillo® Rooftop Tent. Without mincing words, the 23Zero tent is a copy of the Bushbuck Armourdillo®. Bushbuck engineered the Armourdillo Rooftop Tent in 2018 and we launched it in 2019. We spent years designing and engineering the Armourdillo® to create a truly unique alloy hard-shell rooftop tent. We’re really proud of it and our customers love it. We have patents pending for the Armourdillo® in New Zealand, Australia, United States and Europe, which means the design is legally protected. 23Zero launched its Armadillo roof tent in 2022. We fully support taking inspiration from competitors’ products and innovations, but replicating a patented product is crossing the line. If you’re looking for a high-quality, hard-shell rooftop tent, choose the original Bushbuck Armourdillo®, not some knock-off. If you take a closer look at our specifications the shell is stronger, durable and quality tested. The tent fabric is constructed with thicker, higher-quality materials. The Armourdillo® offers quality trims, hardware and technology - we have an eye for detail here at Bushbuck. We are 3 years market trusted and tested in AU/NZ. We also have an amazing customer service team that will support you with any questions or problems that may happen along the way. Cheers, from the Bushbuck Team

Left opening

Yep

Hope you are safe and well 🤞🙏

Yep... and I need a shit ton of money to get one haha

Just one from the warehouse mate it’s good enough. Could get a thicker one but then don’t have option to roll up and leave permanently inside the shell

Yep not cheap but quality. You can put the kayak on top of the tent as it’s a hard shell. That’s what i will be doing with my kayak

Yeah not cheap but well built.
