- Hi folks, it's Lauren from Snowys
with a Darche Quick Cube Ensuite.
♪ Hit it ♪ - It is a super quick set up
instant up frame. It's super spacious
and has plenty of versatility to use
as either a toilet shower, tent or changing room.
So your Darche Quick Cube will come in
this nifty little storage bag here.
It's got a couple of compression straps
to take up any slack in the bag.
It packs at about 110 centimetres long
by about 20 centimetres tall and 17 centimetres wide.
And it weighs in at around about six kilos.
So here's one I've prepared earlier.
Your external dimensions are
155 centimetres square at the foot.
And the overall tent height itself is 215 centimetres.
Internally you also have
a maximum head height of 205 centimetres.
So on the outside here we've got these quick clips
to go on the frame and in each four corners
we've got this aluminium carabiner here
just to make sure the frame
and the tent inner themselves are never gonna separate.
On the sides here we have these nice bright blue guy ropes
which are easy to see even in the dark
making sure you're not gonna trip over them.
And there is one of these on each of the four corners.
And all three of the sidewalls and the back wall
are just the solid material here.
We have no windows or anything like that on the sides.
And at the top we have a couple of little mesh vents
but I'll head inside the tent
and we'll have a better look at those.
So the doorway here has this nice bright blue
pull zip toggles and a nice U-shape door,
(zip hissing)
which you can roll up and store it away.
(tent rustling)
Got this elastic strap on the inside here.
We'll just hook that over the top
then the same on the other side.
Now onto these mesh roof vents.
You can see I've got one open already here for you
and this one over here is closed.
So it's just a matter of zipping down
either of those sides and giving the little panel a roll up,
and hook that toggle across there.
Now on the roof we also have this hook up the top here.
If you're using it as a changing room or a toilet tent
you can hang a lantern off that
but it's also really awesome to hang a shower head on.
Whilst we're here talking about this hook at the top.
A really common question we get on our ensuite tents
is can I use a shower bag with it?
Generally most ensuite tents won't actually hold up
to the weight of say a 20 litre bag of water hanging off it.
Whilst the Quick Cube probably might deal with that weight
quite well sorry the actual shower bag itself
once it's suspended will probably sit at about
40 centimetres long on average which means that
the actual shower nozzle itself won't be down
or will be sitting around about here on your body.
So that's just one thing to take into consideration.
In the back corner here we've got another little loop
which you can use to hang stuff on or possibly even
thread a shower hose through that there.
Along the back wall, we have this webbing strap here,
which you can use to hang your clothes on
or a towel or something like that.
And on either corner
we have these small little plastic rings.
I'll show you what they're for in a minute.
On the side here, we have a couple of mesh storage pockets
and you also get this mesh bag as well.
We're not really sure what it's for.
You could use it to store your toilet paper
or your dirty laundry or even hanging toiletries
up somewhere with that one.
Now we'll come down to the floor section here.
As you can see, we've got this solid panel in the middle
with a border of mesh around it.
Now this floor can actually also be removable here
if we unhook this corner.
And I'll do this one as well.
Now back to those little black rings talked about.
We just take the hooks of the corner
of the floor there and hook that one up
and then go over to the other side,
and hook that one in as well.
And that stores our floor away.
So whilst this is our display model
it's a bit dusty and things like this
but this can also double as a protection
for your clothes or your towel.
Now the reason why you might not want to use this
is if you are using it as a shower
and you've sort of dug a bit of a drainage hole
or possibly even if you've got a long drop a toilet
and you wanna sit this over the top of that.
So whilst we're chatting about the floor
down the bottom here the materials of the floor here
are 110 GSM polyethylene woven floor like a tarp here.
And that's the same with that lift up floor panel here.
We've got that same polyethylene panel in the middle.
And then we've obviously got the mesh panels
as I mentioned before.
Now, the frame itself of the Quick Cube
is a coated steel frame
and we've got all these plastic joins
and hubs and knuckles to help keep the tent nice and light
whilst the roof poles themselves are a fibreglass pole.
Now all the hooks apart from the four aluminium carabiners
that I mentioned earlier, all of the hooks
are a plastic easy clip on and off hook
that are attached by a nice thick webbing
that's also reinforced on these tabs here.
The material of the tent is a 68 Denier polyester
with this silver coating on the inside
which acts as a bit of a privacy filter as well.
So another really common question we get
on our ensuite tents and particularly this one
is how much privacy does it give you
especially at nighttime and when maybe
you're using a light on the inside?
So I just grab this light we've got here
and we'll have a bit of a look of how that goes.
So here I am with an overhead lantern or a light.
So as you can see there might be a little bit of shadow
and movement that you can see on the screen
but nothing defining or showing a clear silhouette at all.
If I move the lantern down to the side
you get a little bit more of an obvious shadow.
It is daylight here in the store obviously
so at nighttime, that might be a bit more pronounced
even though it's not see-through,
it's probably something to keep in mind
when you are placing your light inside the ensuite.
