There’s a good reason why we’ve sold more double swags than anyone else in the country!

Just to clarify why, we’ve taken the liberty of comparing apples and apples, to see just what makes Adventure Kings Big Daddy Deluxe twice as valuable as the nearest competitor!

We’ve purchased a similar sized and feature packed swag from our nearest competitor to try and work out just what features you may be missing out on by getting your hands on one of these Adventure Kings Big Daddy Deluxe Double Swags, why is it that our competitor sells theirs for almost double the value?

DESIGN

When comparing we chose a similar Dome style swag, which features 2 large side openings to get in and out of the swag. all openings and windows also feature a handy midge and mozzie proof, flyscreen mesh, to stop all of the creepy crawlies from making their way into your bed throughout the night.

The 3 pole design of both sets up in just a few minutes, with 2 dome poles on either the head end and the foot end and both also use an extendable ridge pole to add stability to the swag!

MATERIALS

On top of the easy to set up design and stability, both swags take advantage of similar ripstop mesh polycotton canvas. Ripstop poly cotton canvas takes advantage of a durable and tear resistant grid woven into the canvas, this is one of the most durable materials used in camping gear!

The Ripstop poly-cotton canvas is also extremely weather resistant and resilient in damp environments, faster drying than a traditional cotton canvas, it also is much lighter than an equivalent.

When using these swags in the weather, the cotton fibers swell up and bind with each other locking out the water.

Both brands of swag also use a PVC bucket flooring to prevent any ground moisture from seeping through the base of the swag. The PVC bucket floor also helps with rainwater runoff, by preventing water from leaking inside you’ll definitely have a much more comfortable sleep!

STORAGE

Inside both swags you will also find a few different storage pockets around the place to help stash your phone through the night as well as any other valuables you don’t want to lose in your bedding over night!

But where does the Adventure Kings Big Daddy Deluxe actually beat the competition?

SIZE  

Not all swags are created equal, although many of the previously mentioned features are excellent for knowing your swag is made from the best quality materials, there are some pretty significant details that vary from model to model.

Whilst the nearest competition to the Adventure Kings Big Daddy Deluxe Swag is big, its definitely no big daddy, measuring a massive 15cm narrower, and 20cm shorter with internal head room.

The massive advantage of the Adventure Kings Big  daddy Deluxe is just how spacious it feels inside, because of the 1m of internal head space, it is one of the best swags for getting changed in, or sitting up and reading a book.

The Big Daddy Deluxe offers one of the best swags for killing time inside when the weather turns bad!

MATTRESS

One of the most overlooked features of a swag is just how thick and comfortable it’s included mattress is, in years past even a 1” thick (25mm) would be plenty for catching comfortable ZZZ’s on the tracks, but sensitivities are demanding thicker and thicker mattresses for a better nights sleep.

The new industry standard for a swag mattress is 50mm thick, which for a lot of people would be more than enough, this is what our competitors swag includes, and will certainly give a great nights sleep to those with a harder composition.

However, if you prefer the most comfortable setup possible there is no denying that the HUGE 70mm thick open cell mattress included with the Adventure Kings Big Daddy Deluxe Double Swag you will easily get bragging rights for the most comfortable mattress at camp. The benefits to having a mattress that is 140% thicker is the ability to camp on rocky ground without feeling every bump and sharp edge.

There is no denying so far that the Adventure Kings Big Daddy Deluxe is looking pretty good when comparing apples and apples, but we aren’t quite there yet, now we’re talking bottom line!

PRICE

On the day we purchased our competitors swag, we shopped around and found one that had a bit of a discount running to make sure we gave its price the best chance possible, we walked away paying just $522.45 which for such and epic quality swag, packed full of features seems just about right. Definitely no love lost with the local swag retailer over that price.

Considering all the pro’s and cons you could probably expect to pay a good chunk more for the larger internal space, as well as the mattress that is 140% thicker, but this is where the tables really turn, the same day that the competitors swag was purchased, you could go online and get the Adventure Kings Big Daddy Deluxe Double Swag delivered* to your door for a clean $222.50 including $30 postage and handling costs.

That works out to be $299.95 cheaper, we aren’t going to sit here and tell you which one to buy, but we definitely know what price we prefer!
