The Oztent Jet Tent Bunker XL has a little more length and width to cater for larger frames or campers who like to have extra wriggle room. The simplicity of a swag combined with the luxury of a camp stretcher creates a single person shelter that provides a good night sleep on any terrain.
Cosy when the weather turns bad, the steel frame keeps you off the cold ground, and a 100% waterproof heavy duty rip-stop polyester fly keeps you reliably dry. During summer, the elevated bed allows all-round ventilation, no-see-um mesh provides insect protection, and fold up side flaps on the fly enable plenty of ventilation.
The heavy-duty waterproof base features sewn-in padding for comfort and warmth, and thanks to four interior organiser pockets and the expandable vestibule, you can keep all your essentials handy and stay in bed all day!

Staff tip:While the Jet Tent Bunkert has a built in foam mattress, we recommend the addition of a second mattress for extra warmth and comfort.
Is the Exped meg matt 10 over kill as the extra mattress?
What do most folk use as extra matt?

G'day Col,
It's definitely not overkill to get an Exped Megamat for your Oztent Jet Tent Bunker XL Stretcher. If you find it comfortable, then go ahead and spoil yourself! Most people get a self-inflating mat for these, it just comes down to different specifics and what they're looking for. If you like the Exped, then go for it!

Height inside the stretcher.?1 answer
Hi what’s the inside height at the higher end is it enough to sit up when inside?
Kirsten - Hervey Bay(7 years ago)
G'day Kirsten,
I just had a quick try for you. I'm 181cm tall and my head touched the mesh of the Oztent Jet Tent Bunker XL Stretcher but it didn't quite touch the polyester. If you're much taller than me then you might have an issue.

Tent material 1 answer
I like the size Bunker XL but would have preferred this in a polycotton canvas which the regular size does.
Why did they make the regular size in poly cotton canvas and not the XL size.
I see the polycotton canvas as more breathable for Australian warmer clients and heavier duty.
Weight factor isnt an issue as I would use it for vehicle camping and would presume the weight between the 2 sizes in a polycotton would be not much.
Also I have read some reviews about concerns zip quality, do the stretchers use YKK zips ?
Why go polyester over cotton canvas?
I have used / owned the oztent RV5 for many years.
Im deciding if I should buy a jet tent stretcher or not, but kind of wished the XL size came in a polycotton canvas.
MARK - NEWCASTLE (8 years ago)
G'day Mark,
You raise some fantastic observations. As you've already mentioned, the reason for the difference in the fabric is due to increased weight and the strain that it puts on the frame. I agree that it would be fantastic if both models were in a poly cotton canvas and this is something I'll certainly pass on to Oztent.
They also don't use YKK zips in either model. In saying this, we don't often see Oztent stretchers returned for zipping complaints.

Ripstop polyester Vs Poly Cotton Canvas1 answer
What are the differences between the fabrics used for the XL and the standard size.
Baz - Perth(8 years ago)
G'day Baz,
The main difference between the two is that the polycotton canvas and polyester is that the canvas will be a little bit more breathable, and it’s also generally a heavier duty fabric. Both fabrics are completely waterproof, so they will perform the same out in the elements.

Can you use the bunker like a normal stretcher without the flyscreen1 answer
I was wandering if you could use the bunker like a stretcher and put your swag on it with no fly screen if you wanted to?
Thanks
Greg - Cootamundra(8 years ago)
G'day Greg,Â
I've just double checked with the display model, and I've found that the walls/roof of the Jet Tent Bunker XL Stretcher is sewn onto the base of this stretcher, so you won't be able to use it as a standalone stretcher with a swag Greg.Â

Megamat with Bunker XL?1 answer
Would a Megamat 10 LXW self-inflating mat/mattress match up well with the Jet Bunker XL?
Graeme - Shepparton(8 years ago)
G'day Graeme,Â
The Megamat 10LXW will work nicely in the Jet Tent Bunker XL, and definitely add a lot in terms of comfort and insulation! A great choice :)Â

does sunlight show through? How does this compare to the light transparency of the poly cotton stretcher?1 answer
Michael - Valley View SA(9 years ago)
Hi Michael, the fabric on this is a heavy duty polyester that doesn't let light shine through it. That being said, it is not a complete block-out fabric and you will be able to tell if it's light or dark outside of the shelter. I would say it is quite comparable to a PU coated poly-cotton of the same weight.
