Mother nature rules us all
We build really good gear that's easy to use and will last. However, let's be clear: we bow down to the all mighty Mother Nature. Burro Tent Weights are not a promise that your tent will stay put. They're a tool. A really good one, but a tool nonetheless.
If the wind is strong enough, a tent will blow away. It can happen with 25 lbs per leg, 40 lbs per leg, or even 80 lbs per leg in the most extreme cases.
You're on the ground
You're the one standing under the canopy. You know the weather. You know the forecast. You know if something feels sketchy. We built these weights to make setup and breakdown easier, and so you can finally have tent weights you actually love. But the decision to set up and the decision of how much weight to use per leg is yours. We've found that the range of Burro Tent Weights, 25-40 lbs per leg, covers most weather conditions, and if you double-up per leg with 50-80 lbs per leg, it's unlikely your tent will budge, but it's never a guarantee. We trust you as the expert on what you're doing and what the day calls for.
What we do promise
We promise your Burro gear will last, and if it doesn't, we'll make it right (see our warranty). We promise that, when used correctly, Burro Tent Weights will hold down your tent just as well or better than any other product of the same weight. But we can't promise the wind won't show up and blow away your tent, no matter how much weight you have secured to it. Please use your best judgment, and always take down your tent if conditions seem unsafe.
