Roofnest

[Lostsheep]

Hello all, long time lurker first time poster.

I’ve searched and read most of the threads here about Roofnests vs other brands. It seems as though early variants had some quality control issues , but they’ve been through multiple revisions and hopefully have worked them out.

Does anyone have more to up to date info / reviews for current roofnest products?

Im looking at a lightly used one for a good price so other brands aren’t really in the running. I haven’t actually seen the unit in person yet , any known problems to look out for?

I have a Roofnest Sparrow. I like it, but it's not the easiest to collapse/close. I've made some custom modifications that make it easier, but my wife still has trouble.

Wedge style ones or iKamper style ones are all functionally straight forward.

Well, I ended up with a sparrow eye 2, in good shape for a decent price. I’m happy with it for the most part , I think I’ll be changing out the mounting brackets but lucky me I have a mill or 5 at my disposal.
