Every X-Gloo is weather-resistant as standard. Each tent is waterproof and can withstand winds of up to 20mph without ballast – we’ve even tested them in industrial wind tunnels to prove it! Standing under an X-Gloo will also give you as much UV resistance as putting on factor 50 suntan lotion and the polyethylene covers are fire resistant. In short, an X-Gloo can withstand almost anything the elements can throw at it.

An X-Gloo can be washed, but only with a very mild detergent. Special care must also be taken over what colours are washed together: if your X-Gloo contains vibrant reds, blues or other similar colours mixed with white, these colours could run in high temperatures, ruining the design.

Setup times vary depending on which X-Gloo is being inflated. For the smaller models, such as the 4×4 and the 5×5, it can take as little as 5-10 minutes to inflate the X-Gloo with an electric pump. The larger models are just as quick, with the largest, the 8×8, taking only 35 minutes to inflate fully using a pump. If inflating the tents by hand, however, these times may be longer.
