Last reviewed: March 2026

At a glance
Why this product
The Basin Wedge pairs a fiberglass shell with Tepui's wedge format, creating better aerodynamics than a flat popup or clamshell. The 210D polyester ripstop is notably lighter fabric than most competitors. At 155 lbs it is heavier than you might expect for a wedge, likely due to the fiberglass shell. The 60-second setup is faster than fold-outs. If you want a wedge-format tent with Thule backing and prefer fiberglass over aluminum, the Basin Wedge fills that niche.
