Ideal as a camping or temporary toilet cover, for changing clothes at the pool or beach, or even as a hide for bird watching or studying wildlife, without scaring away the animals.it's ideal for use in public places such as parks, pools, beaches, campsites, forests, mountain areas, or national parks. It has a covered roof for extra privacy while you are dressing, changing, or doing other activities where privacy is key. The zip-up door and roll-up flap make easy entry or exit. The unit is supported by a flexible steel frame that is sewn into the fabric. Just take the carrying bag around, and 'pop-up' the tent!
