Will automatic tents be more expensive? If you are skilled in building a tent by hand, it takes about 5 minutes for a single person to build a tent. Anyway, we have never seen an automatic tent here. Generally, it is enough to go out to play and build a tent by hand. It would be even worse if the structure of the automatic tent were more complicated. There are bumps and scratches outside. If you don't open it, it will become a tent manually.
