Eskimo quickfish 3i cheapest deal 40%off......, any one own one ,any reviews ..

Finally got myself a new portable pop up the Eskimo quickfish 3i it was not the one I originally set out to get two years ago so I'm giving up the dream of the 949i Eskimo pop up I'm giving up some space with the 3i but I could not resest the 40% off regular price $499.00 now $299.00 ,home hardware sells this unit for $549.99 anyway if any buddy is interested in a qf 3i or a 949i fat fish I know where some are the 949i is on sale for $399.00+ tax and $25 for shipping still $399.00 for that pop up is a good deal ....anyone interested just pm me and send back details /////////////

Just set it up in the house and its more roomy than I thought I'm pretty happy with it I went over all seams and gave it a once over because I read some reviews about the stitching and the windows not lining up but it all looks good and also the bag has been upgraded with 3 heavy velco straps built into the new bag and two straps for the hut ,so far so good and not to much of an issue setting it up,I'm gonna leave it set up for the wife to get used to it cause this is where all have to dry it out......... lol
This will be great for camping as well..........

You've either Avery low ceiling or that pop-up is huge!

Now to get out and use it!

Ya bigger than I thought ,my ceiling is 8' the inside at the center of the hut measures 6' 8” I still have over a foot o clearance the picture is deceiving....... Can't be the price I'm kind of glad I didn't get the other one. lol....it wouldn't fit in the living room to dry lol.....

I had that exact same pop up before I bought my Clam flip over.

Definitely a very nice hut I'm sure you will enjoy it.

Do you have any tips seeing you had this one ,do you need to treat the outside material with anything ,like a water repellent????

I have this hut and it is amazing. I got the same exact deal you did also. Best hut I have ever owned by far.

You are 'allowed' to set up in living room to dry!!! Amazing!!!

I was challenged to set mine up 'new' inside the house - I'd never be able to negotiate to set up to dry . . .

Thanks

Its set up now to show her ,she will probably say good now sleep in it outside........lol.
Boats in the garage so this is the only spot I can fit this in ......I won't have to dry it to much
In the winter if its below freezing but maybe a couple of times I just wonder what the neighbors are thinking its glow red in my living room like the red light district....ha ha ....great hut ....thanks for the replies.

Great stuff.

It is nice. I like this shack. Is it 4 men ? if it is 4 m4n it would be good for 2 and for 1 would be awesome with lots of room. How much did you pay for it ?

For camping I am not sure as it does not have the floor cover, which regular camping tent have, so insects or squirrels might into your tent easy , also as it looks insulated would be hot inside for summer camping but you can try and see.

I don't think 4 adults would work unless 2 people where sitting and the other 2 standing but still would be tight especially if they where big people.
3 people for sure and this will give you room for the heater and gear...
I payed $299.00 I have seen it in the states for cheaper but with our dollar the way it is and shipping I figured this was the way to go ....cheers..

I fish with with 3 people in camping chairs in this hut with a heater and some gear.

Took it down with no problems I was able to get it in the bag with no problems as well they have provided a couple of Velcro straps to go on before it goes in the bag ,however the hub end of the hut the strap fits well but the other strap will not go around the top part of the tent because its to puffed out ,maybe if I really really worked at it and had it folded up perfectly then maybe but who want to be out there messing around in minus -20 or worse with a short strap so I'm using the one I have and the other thing is the windows if there's a weak spot in this hut its the clear plastic windows the plastic feels very flimsy but I'm told by others that most of the hut manufacturers use the same product....not sure why they couldn't improve on that but other then those two things its great....

In case someone wants one, huronia bait in fesserton has the Uninsulated one$279. I left. And still the 2 man flip $399! Some great augers deals too. Good time to gear up for next season.
Edited to fix my mistake. Non insulated.
FF.

Dry and warm they fold back up easy. Cold with a layer of moisture frozen on it it will puff up a loy more and be a bit harder to put away, though should never be a major problem. the advantage of this drawn out cold winter is that you should still get plenty of use out of it this season!
