The Quechua 2 SEC Illumin II Tent from Decathlon is the baby brother (or sister!) of the Quechua 2 SEC XXL4 Illumin Fresh Tent we looked at last month. It's a pop up tent for 2 people that is very quick to pitch in approx. 2
seconds, and folds away in less than 15 seconds! This tent's unique features are
three built in LED lights with separate switches, one at the entrance and 2 reading lamps. Watch the video below! If you're looking for a family popup tent, try the Quechua Seconds Family 4.1 Tent
or the Quechua Seconds Family 4.2 XL Tent

Waterproofing: All Quechua tents are laboratory tested (an
ENTIRE TENT is put through 200 litres/hr/sq m for 4 hours!) and field
tested. (PU-coated polyester flysheet, 120 g/sq m Polyethylene
groundsheet, fully thermo-bonded taped seams). There is a breathable
polyester inner tent under the flysheet that prevents
naturally-occurring droplets of condensation from touching the inside of
the flysheet.
Ventilation: 1 upper air vent at the back, 2 lower side
vents, breathable inner tent fabric. You can leave the inner tent door
half-open at the top using the 2-way zip. Increasing ventilation also
serves to reduce natural condensation.

UV: (Protection against Ultraviolet rays) The "Fresh" fabric
has an SPF of 50+. Warning: High levels of UVs can pass through an open
tent flap.
