About Antidote Outdoors

Antidote Outdoors in Placentia, CA, specializes in high-quality rooftop tents, cargo solutions, and vehicle racks for overland adventures. Customers frequently praise the friendly, accommodating staff and the well-designed, easy-to-use features of their core products like the Stargazer tent. This shop is ideal for overlanders seeking innovative, quick-setup gear backed by installation expertise, though potential buyers should weigh product durability concerns against positive initial experiences.

The Good

Customers frequently praise the friendly, helpful, and accommodating staff, specifically mentioning Sebastian, Casey, and Brittany for going above and beyond. Products like the Rooftop Tents (RTTs) are highlighted for being easy and fast to set up/take down (sometimes under a minute), comfortable, durable in various weather conditions (wind, snow), and featuring thoughtful designs like entrance awnings and clear ceilings for stargazing. Installation services are generally reported as smooth, quick, and well-executed, even for custom setups. Many customers appreciate the high quality of the merchandise relative to the affordable pricing and the availability of local discounts.

Things to Consider

Significant negative feedback centers on poor product durability and severe customer service issues following product failure. One customer reported rapid clear coat delamination on a cargo box, followed by poor customer service when seeking a warranty fix, being told to pay for the repair of a manufacturer error. Another detailed a dangerous failure of a primary strap on an RTT while driving at highway speeds, leading to product damage and subsequent refusal of a refund by the company, with the customer feeling unsafe using the product afterward. Other complaints include receiving damaged/missing parts for a roof rack that subsequently caused vehicle damage (sagging roof, torn seals), unorganized storage leading to incorrect part usage, and difficulty reaching staff during business hours for inspection appointments.
