The Cinch Pop-Up is a [backcountry tent](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gazelle-tents-backcountry-series) designed for the novice camper and any consumer that is looking to avid the time spent putting the portable abode together. This tent is designed exclusively for [instant set up](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/naturehike-snap-chair), without the need for rods or added accessories. Instead, the Cinch Pop-Up is compact in a [portable disc case](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bikepacking-tent) and instantly folds open into a fully functional sleeping area.

While most tents take several minutes to put together with parts that require attention and assembly, the Cinch Pop-Up tent is immediately set up. The tent comes as-is with a shape that collapses in on itself. When released from its disc casing, the circular tent expands into a fully functional abode.
