NaturehikeMongar Ultralight Silicone Backpacking Tent 2 Person for Backpacking Cycling Hiking Camping

Have had this tent for a couple of years now, so consider this a long-term road test. While not the absolute lightest on the market, unless you're doing 2 weeks of 30-milers this is fine for almost every backpacking scenario. I've also never needed the groundsheet, and that includes January on Dartmoor.In terms of sturdiness, my 11yr old son and I spent a night on Pen-y-Fan in 70 mph gusts and, despite the tent flexing to the point the panels were touching my nose (novel experience), there was not a single tear in the morning; just an ex-Para in a bivvy who'd taken shelter in the lee side overnight and who admitted, even by Para standards, it had been a 'bit blowy'.Lots of little details like the loft and pouches that others have mentioned, and that make solo hiking that much easier. V quick up and down, although I've yet to put up alone in a real blow, but I have done it in the dark. I guess if you're putting it up in the absolute pissing rain, you might want the groundsheet so you can get the outer up first.Basically, £500-600 tent for £150. Certainly enough for weekend moor stompers like me, or 2 weeks in the Pyranees. And if you're thru-hiking the AT or PCR you won't be relying on Amazon reviews as you'll be too busy dehydrating bananas and weighing your sunglasses.Edit: if I have any small complaint, the 'porch' space is quite small, so if you need to leave more than boots and Bergen outside the inside, may be an issue. I just put anything extra that's wet or dirty in a drybag and clip it round a pole outside. It won't get any drier or cleaner but it's not like the porch is a laundry/drier either.

I’ve had this for some time now and I have to say that the pack size and weight are very good for such a high quality and robust tent!It stays bright inside for longer as it’s white and strong and thin material.I have used in high winds and in cold weather but it’s by no means a winter tent. More like a 3 seasons style.But if your sleep system is good then it can be pushed.

For a budget tent this is really, really good. The double y pole system pops itself together almost like magic, the clips that connect the inner to the pole have a nice, positive twist-to-lock action, and putting the fly over the top is about as simple as it possibly could be. Having a footprint supplied as part of the package is a nice bonus. There’s plenty of space for one and adequate for two, with the porches a bonus for storing kit. It somehow manages to quadruple the volume of my previous tent while being lighter and easier to put up.The pegs are very effective but I found them hard to push in, if your hands aren’t a lot tougher than mine you’ll need some sort of tool (I used the base of my bike pump.)On a breezy night at around 10 degrees c I found this tent a pretty cold sleep compared to my previous one. This will partly be due to the increased volume, but I think that it could do with a slightly longer fly sheet that gets closer to the ground and/or a taller ground sheet to reduce drafts. Also there were fewer pegs supplied than you would need to fully peg out the tent and all the guys.

Very easy to set up and put down, comfortably fits 2 adults. Bought this for myself and my fiancé we tried it out in the garden first, then on a campsite, all was great. Very much recommend.

This is a really impressive ultralightweight tent. Very simple to erect and all materials seem to be good quality. The tent feels pretty solid when pitched. It always feels safe even when there is some flexing in high winds.The included footprint allows for an "outer first" pitching, to keep the inner tent dry if pitching in heavy rain.The included pegs are great for most conditions, but for stormy weather I will be packing a few extra longer pegs.One disadvantage is that internal storage is limited. There are no wall pockets on the side of the tent. There is a mesh hammock "loft" in the roof but it never feels very secure - items stowed in the loft often fell out. And fitting the loft reduces the headroom too much for me to be able to sit up.The flysheet doesnt go right to the ground, so maybe not suitable for snowy weather when snow will blow underneath.This is my first naturehike tent - I will be definitely looking at more.

Affordable price for a summer camping vacation. . The bud colour is slightly darker than i thought it was going yo be but a nice tent for price . Ideal for one person who likes to have a spacious sleeping quarters on a camp out….. Roll on the long days of spring and the warm summer evenings…

I love this tent for a few reasons, it's lightweight and easily and quickly put up, the groundsheet attached to tent works brilliant. I used the tent for the first time on a 3 day motorcycle trip and it was excellent, first night was quite wet and tent held up perfectly. Spacious tent also helps with keeping all my gear inside.The only bad point is the pegs, they are aluminium but they are very small, I bent 1 and broke the top part off another, no idea how. I actually binned the pegs before I left camp.I'm going to upgrade the pegs and the guy ropes for more easily seen items.Overall 9 out of 10, just let down by cheap pegs.

camped in this for 3 weeks. Some heavy rain and it was fine. Not tried in very windy conditions yet. Good internal space and good insect proofing. Easy and quick to set up with a minimum of pegs.
