The Hitch-Home features a built-in air mattress that can be effortlessly inflated using an air pump. Reinforced with sturdy aluminum support panels at the base, the air mattress provides sturdy support, guaranteeing a secure and stable foundation for a restful night under the stars. Comes with adjustable leg support height of 5.9 inches (15cm), this innovative design ensures a secure and stable foundation for a restful night’s sleep, even in rugged outdoor conditions.
The Hitch-Home TPU air mattress demonstrates remarkable durability, effortlessly supporting weights of up to 551 pounds (250kg) without any issues, unlike a typical cot that may bend over time under similar pressure. This feature ensures that campers can enjoy a tranquil and comfortable night’s sleep, free from worries about instability or discomfort, allowing them to fully relax and unwind amidst nature’s beauty.
Featuring a 2-inch hitch receiver compatible with Hitch Class 3 or 4, the Hitch-Home boasts a unique capability to effortlessly tilt the main unit upwards over the hitch receiver. This innovative design simplifies the setup process, allowing users to easily attach and detach the hard storage case from their vehicle’s hitch with minimal effort. Whether you’re setting up camp for the night or preparing to hit the road again, Hitch-Home’s tilting mechanism ensures quick and hassle-free installation, giving you more time to enjoy the great outdoors.
The Hitch-Home can be hitched using three types of mounts, providing adjustable installation heights to accommodate various vehicle types.
Experience ultimate versatility with Hitch-Home’s detachable design. Seamlessly separate the vehicle and the Hitch-Home by effortlessly detaching it from the hitch receiver. You can effortlessly drive away even after setting up your tent, without any concerns about vehicle usability or the need to relocate the vehicle, as often experienced with rooftop tents. Whether you need to run errands or explore nearby attractions, simply detach from the Hitch-Home and drive away to create more space and flexibility for your adventures.
At a mere 77lbs (35kg), Hitch-Home stands as the epitome of lightweight innovation in hitch-mounted air tents, making transportation a breeze. This remarkable feature not only ensures easy handling during setup and take down, but also allows for hassle-free movement between different camping locations. The lightweight construction doesn’t compromise on durability, providing you with a compact and portable solution for your outdoor adventures.

The Hitch-Home takes adaptability to the next level with an added feature—adjustable leg height. This innovative design allows you to tailor the tent’s height to fit any vehicle, ensuring a perfect fit and a seamless camping experience regardless of your vehicle’s size or type.
Moreover, this height-adjustable leg support is designed to adapt seamlessly to various ground conditions, including rain, snow, gravel, rocks, and mud. Constructed from durable stainless steel, these supports feature black plastic caps and rivets, ensuring the tent’s strength and durability. Emphasizing its wear-resistance, this design guarantees enduring performance even in challenging environments.
In addition, our Hitch-Home tent features a combination of breathable cotton and high-quality waterproof fabric, ensuring a dry and comfortable camping experience in various weather conditions.
Breathable cotton is a natural fabric renowned for its comfort and versatility. It allows air to circulate freely, preventing moisture buildup and promoting ventilation to keep you cool and comfortable, even in warm conditions. The waterproof fabric is specially chosen for its durability and resistance to the elements, providing reliable protection against rain and moisture. With Hitch-Home, you can confidently enjoy your outdoor adventures, knowing that your shelter is equipped with top-notch materials designed to withstand the challenges of nature.
Our innovative design features 2 key elements to ensure superior insulation and resistance to cold. Firstly, the flysheet provides primary defense against chilly winds, effectively blocking out cold drafts. Secondly, the air mattress beneath the tent serves as an additional layer of insulation, trapping warm air and preventing heat loss from the ground up. Notably, the thick 5.9 inches (15cm) air layer in the air mattress acts as a barrier, minimizing the risk of condensation buildup and enhancing overall comfort during your outdoor adventures.
The Hitch-Home reveals an impressive storage capacity within the storage case located beneath the air mattress. With approximately 1,200 liters of storage space, this cleverly designed storage compartment offers ample room to stow away camping essentials and gear, keeping your living area clutter-free and organized. From sleeping bags and clothing to cooking equipment and outdoor accessories, you can conveniently store all your camping necessities within easy reach, maximizing the functionality of your camping setup.
By incorporating advanced materials like premium TPU fabric and internal polyester cords, this tent boasts exceptional durability. Unlike cheaper alternatives, which often lack these features, our tent’s construction includes strong cords within the fabric, offering superior resistance to abrasions and punctures. Additionally, the eco-friendly TPU material ensures longevity while minimizing environmental impact.
Whether leaning against the tent or installed over the fly wall, the Hitch-Home Rainfly is designed to securely fix at just the right angle, keeping water out of your tent. Additionally, featuring knob bolts for easy attachment and detachment, the versatile Rainfly doubles as an outdoor table when needed, providing convenience and versatility for your outdoor adventures.
The Hitch-Home adapts to various environmental conditions across all four seasons.

- Tent Body + Awning : General environment
- Tent Body + Rainfly : Sunny or rainy weather
- Tent Body + Rainfly + Awning : Sunny or rainy weather

Setting up Hitch-Home is a seamless and efficient process designed to enhance your overall camping experience. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you get started.
⠀
In the case of rooftop tents, there were various inconveniences due to the need for constant installation on the vehicle’s roof, despite the convenience it offered. Drawing inspiration from hitch carriers, we aimed to develop a tent that could be easily installed and used in various environments.
Hitch-Home focuses on the following 4 aspects for improvement and development:
- Main Body Structure: A structure capable of handling loads, with the ability to store the tent and camping gear in a case structure.
- Hitch Receiver Mounting Structure: A structure that allows easy solo attachment and detachment, ensuring stability when mounted on vehicles.
- Tent: Enhanced convenience in installation through an air tent and air mattress structure, eliminating the inconvenience of pole-type installations.
- Versatility: Accessories like fly, shelter, awning, etc., can be docked and connected individually, allowing for various forms, and the structure is suitable for year-round use.
As a new structure that did not exist before, we improved and tested it in a more convenient form through various attempts and design changes. Over the course of 3 years, we obtained 4 patents and received recognition from the Republic of Korea government.

U-RANG was born out of the inconveniences of traditional camping. We reimagined features from rooftop tents, camping trailers and standard tents to pioneer the development of the first hitch-type air tent. Recognized by the Republic of Korea government and holding 4 patents, U-RANG stands as an innovative startup.
Through 3 years of development and testing, we have incorporated considerations for potential issues in outdoor activities into the product design. Therefore, we’re excited to introduce our revolutionary hitch receiver detachable tent through Kickstarter.
We prioritize camper convenience as our first value, and vehicle safety as our second value. We’re committed to create an environment where people and nature coexist.
In Korean, ‘유랑 (U-Rang)’ means ‘nomad’, signifying the spirit of traveling together. “Rang” signifies ‘together’ or ‘with you’. As such, U-RANG is dedicated to being your outdoor companion, providing a smooth and enjoyable journey for all your adventures.
