What is the absolute best 4 x 4 grow tent?

I bought a package deal from Home Depot last August. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Hydro-Crunch-1000-Watt-Equivalent-Full-Spectrum-Horticulture-Grow-Light-Fixture-with-Grow-Tent-and-Ventilation-System-Daylight-TKLED-HLG-4848/310783188

The HLG Rspec, a 4 x 4 and a shitty 4" inline fan. Basically the tent and fan cost me about $40, light was full price.

This tent is a HydroCrunch "second".......1000 pin holes, flimsy front zipper, and 300D canvas (thin).....Velcro is in places where it shouldn't be.......Port holes are not in same positions as my original HydroCrunch tent........first time Ive had trouble maintaining a stable RH.........I'm in cold country, need a well sealed unit.......with strong poles.

Any suggestions? From online reviews they all say Vivosun's 4 x 4 is the best. I am having a hard time believing this.

What say you all?

I've heard nothing but good things about Secret Jardin's products. I'm not sure if they have a 4 x 4 but they do have this 4 x 3 that I plan on getting.

Looks nice but kinda small for my equipment.

I think the Gorilla is pretty darn sturdy. Metal connectors at the corners, larger diameter poles, thicker fabric. Plus they extend up to 8 feet. My last tent was a secret Jardin and it was pretty good too (not as nice or as expensive as the Gorilla).

Strongly considering a Gorilla......just not a Vivosun fan....read online reviews, Vivosun must be paying these reviewers.

I like my gorilla. No pin holes, some slight leakage at the zipper ends.
Held up well considering how many times i have opened and closed the thing.

Gorilla. Transformer tents do a sweet copy if they are available in your country.

The Gorilla Lite has gotten some bad reviews on Amazon....price is doable 200+ The Lite is 210D canvas (thinner then what I have)

The reg Gorilla lookin good but 300+

Im willing to pay 200-250

If that was a 2x2 with the extra room for clones it would be in my closet already. I might just get a another 2x2 and put it right next to the one I have but I need to get some measurements to see if it would fit.

Pretty much what I had assumed, I guess. There is no great 4 x 4, lol. All are a risk, for pinholes, ports placed in odd spots and funky zippers.

A roll of the dice.

I went old school....about $20 per 4x8 sheet of rigid foam.






My garage is cold in the winter, hot as hell in the summer.

i just put up a Transformer 4 x 4. 1680 Density. metal poles and connectors. Comes with an extension kit.

This tent looks great for the price:


Transformer up above ^^ lookin solid!!! Can't find it online, at least not on Amazon.

Thanks for your contribution, Promethean. I should have stated it cant be any taller then 80".....I have about 1 inch clearance above my current tent, then it hits copper piping.

I used Secret Jardin's exclusively from about 2008 - 2017. Switched to topogrow (you can find them on amazon) and I've been VERY happy. I own 3 topogrows

having trouble finding a Topogrow without included Light....just need a decent tent

found it:

upper rods support 40 lbs......need stronger support
