OMG, thank you! I almost resigned myself to never getting this put away. I pictured future cocktail parties and dinner with the boss, "Oh, don't mind the giant blue beach tent in the corner."

Seriously, this was exactly what I needed. I read the instructions and tried twenty different ways to make it work. This was easy-peasy!

I fought for hours on the beach wrestling sweating and dehydrating to get this thing closed, thanks maam from Texas!

Life saver!!!! 3 years never folded until today

Thank you, after almost a year, it is back in the bag!

I sure put on a show for beach goers yesterday! Everyone was dying laughing (including me). Thanks for this. Those ikea directions are ridiculous! This is so simple! Thanks!!!

I wish KZfaq had a tip jar! This video is perfect!

Thank you so much! We struggled with this for 15 mins at the beach, then gave up and 15 mins at home. Got it folded in less than 30 seconds with this video. Thanks! :)

Thank you for this. Was starting to think I was gonna just have to live with this open in my living room forever! 😂

So helpful!!!! No lie, I had this thing halfway folded up against a wall andfor weeks because I couldn't follow the Ikea instructions and got inpatient after 2 tries. I knew someone else must've struggled with those silly directions so I searched KZfaq... Voila!! Thank you so much! I closed it properly in 1 minute flat😃

I just spent 1hr trying to close this for the first time from 3 different videos made by men. One 0:59sec video from you and I got it! Women rule!!!

Omg. Thanks. I almost started pulling my hair out. My scalp is thanking you right now.

God bless you for this. I don’t even want to share how many times I had to watch your vid to get this tent closed 😂 by no fault of yours! Very clear and concise directions, this is a me problem lol

Best instructions on ikea tent folding! 🏆🏆🏆

Bless you for making this video! like most IKEA things these instructions were so unclear. I probably would have shaved 10 years off of my life trying to do this without your tutorial 😂

Found this after another video showed a different way where you have to be two people in order to close it. This tutorial was so easy to follow. Thanks.

lol , my friends rented and Airbnb , i found this tent and I couldn’t for the life of me understand how to put it back , so I am sooo happy U decided to make this “How-To ♥️♥️♥️

We fought this tent and eventually just threw it in our trunk. Thank you so much!!

Thank you this tent was in my garage for 3 weeks and we finally fold it you’re awesome, ikea should hire you!

I watched so many videos on how to fold this up! Took about an hour( and a lot of cussing 🤬) before I stumbled upon your video! Watched yours, and took me about 15 seconds! THANK YOU SO MUCH! It was almost doomed to the garbage can!😂

This is the first time in two yrs that I was able to do this!! Thank you!!!!!!

Thank you so much for uploading this video! I was trying to fold the tent for 30 mins and had slapped 2 times by it. Lol. After watching your instruction, I was able to fold it in less than 1 min.

Ikea should reward you for this video. You saved our lives 😅

OMG! Thank you for this video. I just couldn’t figure it out

We bought one of these two weeks ago. My wife opened it up one night after i went to work. It was on the bed in our spare bedroom because we couldn't figure out how to close it. Thanks for the video, saved us lots of embarrassment at the beach. lol

Just came to say thanks again. I always look for this video when it’s time to close my tent lol

I will never remember how to put this thing back together. Ever. Thank you for this video.

This thing has been heaven and hell to me. Had to leave it crumpled up in the car overnight while camping cuz I gave up on folding it. Thanks for the easy help!

THANK YOU! I gave up at the beach and finally stuffed the whole uncollapsed tent into my car. Wish I would have watched your video before my trip.

I needed this so bad. I avoid using it when my husband’s not around 🤣🤣🤣 thank you!!!

Thank you!! Watched your video once and figured it out in 15 seconds.

Thank you so much... I was a laughing stock in the beach the other day 🤦🏻‍♀️

I’ve always had trouble with this and was just now struggling to get this folded up and your instructions were perfect! Thank you! 😇🥳

Every fall I have to pull your video up. Thank you for saving my sanity

You have given therapy to so many frustrated minds with this video.

THANK YOU!!! WE ARE TRYING TO LEAVE TO THE BEACH RIGHT NOW AND I WAS FIGHTING WITH THIS THING 😂😂

Thank god for you. Me and my niece were struggling with this tent forever till we saw your video. Thank you. These ikea paper instructions were no help lol

I keep coming back to watch this video every year

Wait why are people disliking this video?? Thank you for saving our sanity

THANK YOU SO MUCH my partner and i got this for free outside and had no idea how to close it. i really appreciate it!!!

Thank you. I was at the beach all day trying to figure out how to fold this thing.

Thank you! I literally watch this video every single time I use the tent lol 😆

This is the second time I've had to watch this video, thank you again.

I had tried to do that with a physician and two engineers w/o success. The pics in the manual weren’t good! You nailed it in way less than 60 secs. Thank you!!!

Thank you!! Weeks after going to the beach this tent was still sitting around in my room partially folded.

I reference this video everytime I’m packing up at the beach and I can’t remember how to fold this thing (which is most times). I honestly think it’s that my arms are just a tiny bit too short to hold the whole thing and fold it by myself so I usually grab a friend to help. But your video is such a huge help. I have it permanently saved as an open window on safari

Thank you so much!! We were having so much trouble putting this thing away. I didn’t think we’d ever get it folded right.

HOLY MOLY THANK YOU SO MUCH! This was soooo much easier than the pictures!

Use your video everytime!! Thanks so much!! I'll get better at this now that my toddler daughter is old enough to open the zipper bag and the tent all on her own!!

Fantastic little tute vid! Had this tent for years and always dreaded The Put Away... but no longer. Cheers!

This was the best one on here by far! #ikea this should be your new spokesperson @ikea

Thank u soooo much I was going crazy I was about to throw it away sumthing said go to KZfaq and there u were thanks again 🌷👍

Yes kudos to you, many thanks! Most fold-together items with this kind of coiled clastic cable sort of fall in on themselves but not the IKEA tent. I too read instructions several times but the way you explicitly instructed to fold down and tuck under did the trick!

Just pulled this video up after looking like a clown for 10 minutes. I’m glad that not only was the video easy to find, but easy to follow too. Thank you!

thank you so much. you’re such a life saver!! anytime I go to the beach I struggle so much to put this back in its case. :)

Omgness!!! Thank you!!! Years.. I couldn’t do it. Out of all the KZfaq videos I watched, you explained it the easiest!! Took me no more then 10 seconds.

Best explanation, thank you so much for this amazing video. We always carried the cabana in a big size not being able to close it

This was very helpful! Thank you so much!

Once again this is that time of year where I watch this video once again.

Wow, so simple when you do it! Thanks for showing us!

Thank you so much! My husband and I couldn't figure this out in this video we did it on the first try. Just what we needed!

Oh my goodness! Thank you so much! I've been trying to figure this out for two days! Many thanks!

Wow I love my tents(2) . You made it so easy breezy. 😊 Thanks

Thank you! Perfect, short, easy to follow!

My mom and I were struggling so much. Glad we found your video BEFORE we go to the beach 🤣

This video is a lifesaver!!!! Thank you.

This is so helpful, thank you for posting!

Thank you!!! Was was preparing to just throw it away 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I had gotten so frustrated 🤦🏾‍♀️

Wowsers!! IKEA lost me after I connected the 1s and 2s. Your way is so easy! Make a taco. Then fold your taco and tuck everything under. ❤

Thank you ! Life saver!

Thank you for simplifying this for me!

This was very helpful thank you so much for this

Thank you for the tutorial!

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I spent an hour trying to get the thing to close. I was ready to set it on fire just so I wouldn't have to deal with it.

You have saved my sanity, thank you!!

Thank you Aim, my granddaughter appreciates it too.

So helpful. Thank you!

I always have to watch this video so thank you

Thank God for you!!! I would not have figured it out on my own 😂

super helpful! thank you so much

Life saver!! Thank you!

You are a genius woman!

It's very useful . I have learnt it.

Thank you for this video!

I always seem to forget how I do it… I usually get it right 1/4 times but you are a lifesaver. Now I’ll be 4/4 lol

Thank you , because we were struggling 🤣; but you got us there 👍🏽

Thank you for making this video! I have been storing this behind the couch because I could get it folded all the way, ugh.

Thank you!!! This saved us

Thanks, my mom needed this :D

Awesomeness!!! Thank You 🙏🏽

Liked and subscribed lol I hate using this tent but that will change cause now I know how to close it haha

It also works with STRANDÖN tent. This is the easiest way and cleanest description of folding it.

Thank you ! You saved us 😂!
