legit bomber tent
1 year ago
i really have been happy with this tent so far. haven’t gotten it into single digits yet. been using it as single person and it works flawlessly. fast setup maybe take 10mins going at a slow pace otherwise you could probably pitch this tent in 5mins or less. the construction is top notch. just a very high quality tent everywhere you look. ventilation isn’t bad for one person but for two you better hope it’s windy. regardless it’s holds it own well and form factor and size is very convenient. also the foot print works well with it and is very handy to have since it packs small and doesn’t weight much.
Yes , I recommend this product

Solid single-wall tent

We left this tent set up at the base of a Himalayan wall at 4500m in late october when a storm rolled in and made us retreat to basecamp. Despite heavy snows and wind, when we returned 4 days later it was exactly as we left it and in great shape. This tent strikes a great balance between weight, durability, and versatility (especially when paired with the vestibule). The one con is that the ventilation could be better and sometimes the breath condenses on the inside in cold temperatures.

Bomber as expected

Small, but packs down small. Withstood 30+ mph winds fine. Not luxury, but very bomber. Like the fact that I didn’t have to seam seal this tent as with some other brands I’ve owned.
