We have retired this product to focus on our core products. We hope to bring it out of retirement someday.

The Shelter

Don't let pesky bugs ruin your night. No-See-Um netting keeps out the smallest critters while the tub-floor blocks moisture from below. Deep, tapered walls improve the usable room inside while retaining a minimal footprint.

  • Tapered tub-floor walls for extra elbow room.
  • Deep, 10" tub-floor walls.
  • Interior stash pocket and hang loop for your odds and ends.
  • Taped DCF seams at corners of tub never need sealing.
  • Lineloc tensioners at apexes for easy pitch adjustment (removable).
  • UHMWPE Core guyline with reflective tracer included.

This net-tent pairs well with our Cirriform tarps and the 9'/7' x 9' tapered tarp. It will work with the 7'/5' x 9' tarp, though with minimal overhang.

The floor of this net-tent is made from 1 oz DCF. See more about material considerations, see our Materials Page.

Proudly made in the USA.

Rigging
Included items

Your net-tent comes with the following rigging included. The guyline and tensioners come pre-installed. The rest is left to you to cut and install to your individual needs.
Note: Partnering this with a Cirriform Tarp? Please see the bottom of the page for suggested cord lengths.

  • 1/16" Shockcord: 20 ft | 6 m
  • 3/32" Shockcord: 3 ft | 0.9 m
  • Mitten hooks: 12
  • Guyline: 15ft | 4.57m
  • Guyline grommets: 2
  • Lineloc tensioners: 2 (pre-installed)
Installation Process

There are no set rules, but at each location, we like to connect the net-tent to the tarp with a length of shock cord and a mitten hook.

  • At one end of the cord, tie a loop. We like to use a simple overhand loop knot.
  • At the other end of the cord, tie on a mitten hook. We like to use a clinch knot.
  • At the end with the loop, attach it to the webbing loop on the net-tent using a girth hitch. To do this, pass the loop part way through the webbing loop, then pass the mitten hook through the side of the loop poking through the webbing. Pull the mitten hook end to tighten everything up.
Locations/Descriptions

It's not necessary to install cords at all locations, but with more locations secured, the better the net-tent will keep its intended shape (especially in lower pitches), and the less it will move around in wind.

  • Peaks (2): If the distance between the tarp and net-tent remains fairly consistent night to night, we like to connect the net-tent peak to the tarp using the 3/32" shockcord. If your tarp pitch is not consistent, for example if you sometimes pitch your tarp at different heights, you might be better off tying a mitten hook to the end of the guyline installed at the peak and adjusting the length using the tensioner.
  • Bottom of tub (4): We like to secure the bottom corners of the tub using a length of 1/16" shock cord and mitten hook to connect the the tips of the triangles (at the tub's corners) to the stakes used to secure the tarp's corners. We either clip the mitten hook to the end of the tarp's guyline at the stake, or to shorten it, wrap the shockcord around the stake and clip it back to the floor or some other location. Alternatively, you might use some minimal stakes to secure the bottom of the tub. Stakes might be a better route if your setup would require excessively long connections, is not an a-frame setup, or if you're in a really windy environment. You can also forego securement entirely if you clip out the top of the tub as described below.
  • Top of tub (4): Securing the top corners of the tub is optional if you're securing the bottom (see above) and may not work with all setups. When using them, we'll connect them via shockcord and a mitten hook to the tarp's corner tie-outs. For low pitches, when the net-tent can't be pitched to its full height, tensioning the top of the tub and letting the rest drape helps the tub retain function. For very low pitches with the Cirriform Tarp, run the cord through the loop on the tarp's associated seam before clipping it to the tarp's tie-out.
  • Midpoints on tub's edges (2): Optional. Using these locations will improve security in wind. To use, connect them to associated locations on an a-frame tarp with the 1/16" shockcord and mitten hooks.

This is a great ball for high energy dogs.
Color: Blue
I have a Belgian Malinois, so you can imagine the Maligator jaws. Just opened this today and let her play with it indoors. She LOVES IT. It wore her out and it’s a toy she can really stay focused on without needing me to throw or roll for her. It moves on its own! I supervised her play. I was hoping it was too big to get under the couch, but no. It goes right under it. I had to block off the gap so I didn’t have to keep getting it out from under for her. The outter “shell” is very durable! When she had resting moments, she chewed it pretty good - I could hear the material squeaking against her teeth. I was worried she was tearing it up, but nope! Not a mark on it. It’s easy to set up and operate. It needed charging before play. After hours of play, she was able to somehow unscrew the outter shell. This concerned me bc the smaller, inner ball mechanism came out but I saw it right away and was able to put it back together. So, make sure it’s screwed together tightly (which I thought I had done without breaking it) and check it from time to time to make sure it hasn’t loosened. This is a great ball for her incredible high energy drive. It gives her the work and fun play she needs to get tired, which I love. This toy is on the expensive end, but so far it’s worth it. Now we’ll see how long it lasts!

Love love it
Color: Blue
Best dog toy ever. I have a 1 year old boxer who is full of energy (understatement). This ball has provided more entertainment for us both than any dog toy I’ve ever purchased. Charge holds well and has a very resilient shell. I love it. Worth the price.

Great ball for limited entertainment. Replaceable outer shell is an amazing option!
Color: Blue, Color: Blue
Bought this for our 45lb, ball-obsessed Dutch shepherd/pit bull dog mix. I had one of these years ago with the hard shell and couldn’t be happier with the new foam shell. The new foam shell is much quieter and while our dog might put holes in it with his teeth, he doesn’t seem to ever pull pieces off. For engagement level, he found it VERY interesting at first and was scared to grab it, but once he got over that he started holding it in his mouth even when it shakes and just tries to keep it. Isn’t the best for fetch or anything as he has trouble letting it go when it is actively moving, but it makes him happy while he has it. We just make sure to monitor him while it is out. The ability to change the outer shell and just buy a replacement for the shell instead of a whole new toy is a lovely feature that makes me very happy to continue buying from this company.

Great Interactive Option
Color: Blue
To start, I have been very happy with this purchase. A couple of key points for me are durability and being able to keep my dog's attention. I have had it for almost a year, just a month shy, and she hasn't managed to get through the foam outer shell even though she tries real hard to do so. Let's just say, she's hard to find toys for because of her habit of finding the point of failure where she can pick and gnaw at until the toy is no longer safe for her to have. With this toy, she not only found her match, but it also has her watching, waiting, and even stalking. Only one small issue has recently occurred: the motor has started having an issue where the charge doesn't hold, and it doesn't remain on afterwards. I have reached out to Cheerble directly to see about replacing it since I am still within their 12-month timeframe, and they responded right away.

Quality product for the right dog...
Color: Orange
Honestly it's a really cool product well constructed and moves around on its own with several different modes. The design id brilliant with a tough rubber ball that unscrew to expose the element that makes it move in the middle. The dog won't be able to unscrew it but you can if you ever need to replace the ball for any reason but it would take some work for a dog to destroy the outer ball. Almost like "Kong" type material. The ball is about the size of a softball and the element inside is about the size of a golf ball. I thought my dog would love this but she was afraid of it, which is strange because she's afraid of nothing. Anyways I gave it to my neighbor upstairs and she has a yorkshire terrier who plays with it all the time so it all worked out great. Quality product . Good job!
