Is Roofnest legit?
Short answer: yes, Roofnest is a real store, and our score is 3.7 out of 5. The main caveat: you pay return freight on unused tents.
It sells rooftop tents, awnings, mounts and accessories through its own website, roofnest.com. Independent reviews are still scarce, so judge it mainly on its policies. Returns: Unused tents in original packaging within 30 days of delivery; you pay return freight. Cancelling before shipment costs $200.
Our take: legitimate, but read the downsides below before you buy.
