You should have just bought an RV1 before they stopped making them! They have the zip to connect to the awning and oztent sells an adapter for caravan. RV1 is the same pack size as the RS1 just a bit heavier.

Good review. Just bought the combo myself. Maybe to stop the breeze underneath drape a trap over the stretcher so it hangs to the ground, couple of pegs to keep it anchored.

Thanks very much mate! Since owning this swag for almost a year now I might do an updated review as there are a couple of things I’d like to add. One of which is the issue of condensation build up on the inside of the roof and under the mattress in colder weather. I have tried a fair few things to minimise this including opening up as many of the openings as I can (everything bar the main entrance) and still getting a fair bit of build up. That being said I have heard of a moisture absorbent pad people have been using under the mattress that is a relatively good solution. Just something to keep in mind.

Any budget friendly options? Going swag but have lots of teenagers and might break bank to swag everyone out. I thought of hammocks too but we got some big kids. They really like their own space especially from the younger children... I'm so torn. I might get one big tent and cots but love the idea of swag.

It was fine whilst I was using it. The inside of the bag is rubberised so it’s pretty weather proof. Top tip, grab an old candle and run it over your zips, wax will help keep the water out

Heyyy my man! I still like this work however I am actually shooting a new swag review this weekend. The only issue that I have with the Oz tent are S1 is the condensation issue but as long as you can get some good airflow it’s not so bad however in winter this does make the swag pretty cold so I would recommend a really good sleeping bag to go with. Flick me a message on my Instagram it’s great to hear from you

A great review of a very neat setup...the awnings are great...I'm lazy and want all my bedding in my swag...as for 2 weeks on the ground you are welcome to come away for a few months and see what it's like...when I get home all I want is to be back in my swag and I'm a lot older than you...and as for 100km/hr when I had my LJ80 that was it...80km/hr but it went everywhere...just a bit slower...keep up the good work.

Not sure to be honest. The hard part is the mattress is segmented in order to fold up inside the bag. You’d be better off getting a self inflatable to put ontop of the existing one. That being said I’d probably only chose this swag for warmer climate use

Good review, how’s the full set up going for you. Still happy with it, any dislikes or issues? How are you securing the stretcher to the ground?

@MightyOverlander

Gday mate, thanks for the kind words! Set up is did well over the winter period. Only issue I’ve had is condensation build up can be a bit of a pain during the colder nights. Im looking forward to getting out there in the warmer months to see how it goes. Next trip is planned for November when I get back from being away with work. The Oztent line in general is pretty good. I do have my eye on another swag but I’ll save that for next year. I only secure the swag/stretcher to the ground if the weather is up. But generally it’s not really needed as the swag is strapped down to the stretcher. The main reason I went with this is purely being off the ground offers a bit more comfort and protection.

Spotted a good tip on another review of this set-up. You can flip that awning over to the back of the swag and pole/peg it out so it sits above the roof. It puts the reflective surface facing up and leaves a breezeway underneath which is handy for hot and/or sunny days if you don't have shade. Great review though. Subscribed.

Just bear in mind because it’s more of a traditional tent material you do have to be mindful of condensation in cooler or moist weather. Just make sure your vents are open. I’m running a rooftop tent now but it did me very well when I was running the RS1 and my friend now uses it

@@MightyOverlander A mate took one through central Australia last year the condensation was horrendous compared to my 23zero dome, with all vents open he was having to wipe down all the walls each morning where mine would dry up as soon as the sun hit the canvas. Other than the low profile and fast set up you mention I would not recommend this swag for overlanding with lots of early morning pack ups.
