From my experience of five years of using my TM quite a bit, the is no comparison in the time that it takes to set up the TM versus a popup. It takes me less than 10 mintues (by myself) to set up the TM. The popups that I've observed being set up and being closed down take much longer. I've had many a popup camper come and watch me either open or close. Most seem to be downright shocked at how easy it is and how different they are on the inside.

The TM was designed by a guy who was frustrated by a popup.

I've had to open and close my TM in some pretty serious rain and I'm still amazed that no water gets inside. I got pretty wet opening or closing but the inside remained dry.
