Product — 4 m diameter

4M Bell Tent

The 4 m is the bell tent as a family and touring product rather than a furnished site unit: four sleepers in bags or a couple with real luggage room, in the smallest diameter that keeps the bell shape's standing centre. In this catalogue it is a size within the custom glamping bell tent line — cotton canvas, diameters 3 to 7 m, listed band US$175–215 per piece, minimum order one piece, 47 sold on the line's listing. Two related listings sit beside the line rather than inside it: a 300 gsm poly-cotton canvas model listed at 3 m only, and a four-season family model with a stove jack hole whose size is not stated.

Why 4 m is the honest family size

Bell tent sizing is optimistic across the whole industry, so buy the 4 m for what it verifiably is: a 4 m circle. Four sleeping mats fit with a centre aisle you can stand in to dress — the use case is a family at a festival, a couple on a long tour who are tired of crawling, or a site offering a "standard" pitch under its 5 m premium units. It pitches faster and packs lighter than the 5 m — the touring and family size against the 5 m's furnished upgrade. Ask for the 4 m's specification sheet — canvas weight and packed weight in particular — because at this size the tent competes directly with large family tunnel tents on the same shelf, and packed weight is where canvas must justify itself.

Questions to settle in the enquiry

Three questions belong in the enquiry, because the catalogue lists them as separate products rather than as options on this line. Fabric: the line is cotton canvas; the 300 gsm poly-cotton model is a separate listing at 3 m, so ask whether poly-cotton is offered at 4 m before weighing its easier care. Stove jack: the hole belongs to a separate four-season family listing (see the stove jack page); ask whether it can be supplied at 4 m if autumn use is planned. Groundsheet configuration: not stated for this line; ask, and have the answer written into the quoted specification. Nothing in the listings shows these options can be combined on one 4 m order, or that a combined price stays inside the line's US$175–215 band — so the enquiry is where the real 4 m price is set, quoted for your size and configuration.
