Great for camping with tons of gear, the Zempire Neo 5 Dome Tent features sleeping room for four and a vestibule large enough to pack all your gear into for a day away from camp.
Three entrances to the front vestibule lead to a central zippered doorway that fully encloses the rear sleeping quarter. Two side windows combine with four draft vents for ventilation and a rollout floor features in the vestibule.
Tons of space and stability thanks to a geodesic frame, the Zempire Neo 5 dome tent is a versatile shelter for small families.
The entrance to the tent itself does it have a mesh screen as well as a solid cover so u can have it open for ventilation
G'day Scott,
The Neo 5 now features (since 2018) a full mesh and solid layer on the front entrance door.
Could you please indicate if the vestibule can be sealed off completely (with a mesh) to protect from bugs and flies (like it is in BlackWolf Mojave HV4 Dome Tent)
G'day Marek,
The front vestibule of the Neo 5 will offer weather protection, but it is not sealed like the Mojave model was. The Neo 6 tent has a sealed front vestibule and is essentially the same as the Neo 5 but with the enclosed front area to keep it bug-free.
Hi Guys, great looking tent! The description states it's rated for 3 seasons, however I do a fair bit of winter camping and even snow camping! I'm worried about those huge windows, I've got an winter sleeping bag and a self inflating mattress, do you think I'd be ok or am I better of with something with...dare I say it...less ventilation?
G'day Jack,
I wouldn't be too concerned about the windows, as some air flow will prevent condensation within your tent. You should stay comfortable throughout the night if you have a quality sleeping bag and self-inflating mattress, but you could look into purchasing a sleeping bag liner such as the Sea to Summit Thermolite Reactor Fleece Liner as this will add some extra warmth to your bag.
I want to go camping with my daughter who is 5 so I’ll need to be able to erect it without help. I’m looking for a tent with a vestibule that I can stand up in. Do you think this would be a good choice?
G'day Clare,
The Zempire Neo 5 will be a good option for you and your 5-year-old. They are relatively simple to set up, and your 5-year-old will be able to help put the poles together and bang the pegs in. The head height in the front vestibule is 175cm so as long as you're around that height it should be fine to stand in.
How would you rate this compared to the coleman instant up gold? also how much of a struggle would this be to set up alone?
G'day Matt,
It's hard to give a direct comparison between the Zempire Neo 5 and a Coleman Instant Up Gold tent as they're a different type of tent. The Neo 5 is a dome style tent with fibreglass poles so will probably take you about 30 minutes to set it up by yourself. The Coleman Instant Up Gold tents are a quick set up tent with pre-attached steel poles, these will take you a little less time to set up, but packs into a much larger bag. Give us a buzz on 1300 914 007 if you've got any more specific questions and we'll do our best to answer you.
Hi, I was wondering about the durability of the floor and whether you thought it would last if you're sitting on chairs in there in bad weather. You can't roll the floor away? Would it be worth purchasing a mesh tarp to go over the vestibule floor to extend the floor life? If so which would you recommend? Thanks heaps
G'day Sam,
The vestibule floor on the Zempire Neo 5 Dome Tent can be rolled back to the door of the tent, allowing you to set up your chairs and tables under cover without fear of damaging the floor. Alternatively, you can use a mesh tarp to help protect the floor if you'd prefer.
Hi, Is there any video to pitch up this tent
G'day Tim,
Unfortunately, we don't have a video available, but we've just started shooting videos and can add the Zempire Neo 5 Dome Tent to our to-do list if you'd like?
I'd like to order better quality pegs at the same time as ordering the tent.
G'day Cris,
From what I can work out from the imaging, you're looking at around 24 pegs including guy ropes. Unfortunately, I can't check this as we don't have a display model currently set up in store sorry.
Just curious about size of the vestibule for this one. In the photos it looks quite large but the dimensions plan showed it 1m deep only... That sounds like a non extended vestibule sort of dimension... Confused
G’day Vanessa,
I can totally see where the confusion is, I’ll make sure we update the floorplan to reflect the dimensions of the vestibule more accurately.
In the meantime, if you have a look at Zempire’s floorplan you’ll be able to get a more accurate idea of what the Neo 5 looks like.
wondering if the entrace can be sealed off or by any fly screen?
G'day Matthew,Â
The vestibule of the Zempire Neo 5 tent is not sealed by a fly screen/mesh, if you have a look at the fifth picture linked in the description, you can get an idea of what the inner tent looks like without the fly (and vestibule).Â
If you're after a tent with a sealed vestibule, then you should take a look at the Zempire Neo 6 - this model has a fully enclosed vestibule that will keep out insects and doubles as an extra bedroom on the tent.
before ordering this beauty, i am wondering how long doe it take usually to build up the tent? also, with the fly, could we separate the tent part and front vestibule part? or they are fixed?
G’day Amber,
If you’re an inexperienced camper I’d say it would take you approximately 20 minutes to set this up as there are more steps to take in comparison to an instant or pop up structure. If you’re a pro at setting up tents, it may take you less than that.
From feedback from other tents in the Neo range, we’ve had first time campers who have had positive experiences setting up their Neo so you shouldn’t have any trouble. Â
As for the fly – the vestibule area is an extension of the fly which goes over the top of the entire tent, so you can’t use the vestibule and tent as separate shelters.Â
