The product, in the report: Core Instant Cabin 9 Tent, Green
I’d like to report a safety issue with a popular mechanism used by “instant tent” products, such as the Core 9 Instant Cabin. Two of my fingers were pinched between the center hub that resulted in them becoming disfigured but thankfully returning to “normal” looking a few hours later (but one has remained swollen even 7 days later). Had a fellow camper not helped, it would have taken me longer to get the fingers released. Furthermore, he initially moved the tent poles in the wrong direction that added additional pressure onto my fingers. If I did not stop him, there might have been a possibility for some serious injury, such as bones breaking or fingers getting severed.
Core is not the only tent manufacturer who uses the same or similar mechanism.
