Introducing a first from OEX, the Vertex Lite roof tent. Designed to attach securely to the top of your vehicle, this comfortable off-ground sleeping area can be set up in seconds making overnight camping missions a breeze. Made from strong and lightweight aluminium, it features an easy-to-unfold five-pole frame. Its hardy 3000mm HH Oxford ripstop outer, finished with double silver treatment, provides thermal insulation and dependable protection from the elements.

Spacious for one and snugger for two, the tent has three windows offering a commanding 360-degree view from your Vertex Lite when the door is open. The built-in 3-inch foam mattress offers high levels of comfort after a long day on the hill.

One of the lightest roof tents on the market, the Vertex weighs just 37.5 kg (including its telescopic ladder), making it manageable for two people to lift. It has a maximum ladder load capacity of 150kg. The Vertex is compatible with roof bars that have a maximum Dynamic Load rating of 50Kg or greater and, unlike larger roof tents, can be used on smaller hatchback cars fitted with roof bars. A handy repair kit is included and lantern hanging points and two internal storage pockets help you to stay tidy and organised.

The OEX Vertex Lite is the perfect no-nonsense adventure tent - simply pull the car over and pop the tent up.

    I know our Ford Galaxy should only have 75kg of weight on the roof rack, so how many cars would recommend the weight of 2 adults?
    SeanRTK's avatar
    The 75kg weight of your ford galaxy will be the maximum weight the car can take while the car is moving.

    When parked up and not moving, it can take a lot more, I believe 4 or 5 times the weight.

    As long as you're not planning on having someone sleeping up there while driving it'll be fine.

    Edit: updated it to try and make sense. (edited)

    Great price reduction but still very expensive. I'm interested in the benefit of these types of tent. Is it just speed of pitching and not having it in your boot taking up space?

    You joke but there was a dude I met who Airbnb’d his vw camper in Beverlyhills and made a solid $4k a month easy. Nuts!! But genius!

    How does this work if you have to "take a walk" during the night after overindulging on coffee or whatever your favourite tipple is ?  I'd imagine a few sprains or breaks and some bad language happening
    KitKat23's avatar
    You fall off the ladder, wet yourself and fall unconscious. Simples.

    Easier and quicker to erect?

    For all the haters - I'd be far more inclined to on the spur of the moment have a night or two away at a local campsite with one of these as far easier to putup and take down. You're off the ground if it's damp, which is a bonus.

    Not so good if you wanted longer away?/are likely to want to use your vehicle to drive off site while you're there. (edited)

    This is how I see them and have considered one for, I know some coastal sites where I'd like weekend away, no need to leave site. I spoke to someone with one and he said another advantage was being able to dry it on top of car also if needed, no need to hang out or pitch in garden.

    Please buy one, their use and their users are a constant source of amusement on campsites across the country 😁

    I’m not describing a tourist as a snob. In fact I’m currently travelling Europe myself and quite comfortably, but I have the decorum not to boast about it.

    Your condescending comments about other peoples ways of holidaying is however snobbish.

    Don't understand the hate for these. Was at a campsite last weekend and saw one of these at the edge of the lake on a pitch that would have been unsuitable for a ground tent. It looked fantastic and the couple had the best view on the site.
    I just have a normal tent btw.
    markgh's avatar
    I don't understand the hate people can harbour for lots of products that appear here. How can anyone be so annoyed by something they don't have to buy, don't have to use, and aren't affected by in any way?

    Let people buy an expensive roof tent for their mini cooper if they want one. Maybe it works out really well for reasons you can't predict
    Maybe it's just an overpriced lifestyle accessory. Does it matter?
  11. OrangeJuice's avatar
    Why not just get a normal tent for 10% of the price and put it on the floor?!
  12. londonstinks's avatar
    Aren't these a bit pointless in UK? Given that you can't camp anywhere legally and likely to get moaned at by nimby locals or useless coppers, only place to use is a paid camp site and if you are at one you may as well use a tent.
    ymuch's avatar
    Might be pointless in rest of UK but perfectly legal to wild camp in Scotland.

    Perfect for protecting you against snakes, wild animals and flooding!

    Wouldn't it be alot more simple and practical to put on some grass????

    Good grief

    Some people are incredibly lazy and would buy this.

    Very cool on old Lada Nivas and Panda 4x4s in bear country. Not so cool on your Quashqai surrounded by caravans and 'one life, live it!' VW transporter cultists

    Why not?
  16. afroylnt's avatar
    Maybe more for wild camping though camping in the first place can make you angry...

    What a gimmick
    wellayeman's avatar
    How so? I see a lot of these used by people who work at festivals etc. They take about 1 minute to set up and you don't need to worry about the quality of the ground, or whether or not it is absolutely pissing down, which it often is. I've had plenty of problems in the past where the rain has either caused big problems with the initial set up of the tent, as well as tents letting in water at the doors because the rain just wouldn't stop.

    I think it’s just the normalisation of something some people have been doing for years.  I’ve had a roof tent for about 15 years now and use it on average 3 times a month, all year round.  There are now lighter, cheaper and better designs around which has driven the market for the wider population to engage with them.

    Knackers your fuel consumption and loads of wind noise as you plough that boxy roof box along your journey. (edited)
    ymuch's avatar
    I don’t think people are buying them for fuel economy reasons. Never caught any wind noise from mine (I’ve got a hard shell right enough, these boxy soft shells might be worse I suppose). (edited)

    Out of interest, has anyone here put a rooftop tent on the cab (rather than truck bed) of a 4-cab pickup?
