This is a lightweight, low-cost, tent. There is plenty of room for two people plus additional kit. Quick and easy to setup and dismantle. If it’s warm and dry you can choose just to use the inner tent as a ventilated shelter. Of course, if you’re expecting wet weather, or morning dew, then you can also erect the outer waterproof pvc cover.

Good to look at but the inside of the tent was soaking wet in the morning, will try and leave a door open next time to let moisture out but that will let in the bugs and that defeats the object of the thing. no room for kit if 2 people camping.
Read Full Review »I needed a tent that was both lightweight and had a reasonably small pack size, as i was going to be doing the Land's End - John O Groats cycle (no support & carrying all equipment). I looked long and hard, and for tents in this price range, one of such weight and pack size, was very hard to come by!
Although i was alone, the reason i wanted a two man tent was because i had two large panniers. However, there probably would have been enough room for another person with my panniers as well.
I was putting the tent up every evening and taking it down again the following morning for a fortnight, and although that in itself was tedious towards the end, it was very easy; from the point of actually emptying the tent (so it was ready to take down) to the point of it actually being packed away in its little bag, took about 15mins by the end of the fortnight, (hardest part of course squeezing it into the bag). Some of the tent pegs got seriously bent due to the huge range in soil density throughout the trip, but nothing 20mins couldnt sort out in my spare time.
As for keeping me dry, i guess it wasnt really a fair test, as i travelled the first half of this September, which just so happened to be dry every day. Although waking up high in the Scottish Highlands, there was a considerable amount of dew, to which i remained dry, and A LOT of wind; but the tent stood strong, and i got a good nights sleep.
So, for the verdict...
If you're looking for a cheap, small pack size, lightweight tent, this is perfect. (I am planning on using it again next year, when i cycle it all over again). I do understand i never had seriously bad weather, but, if you set the tent up properly, i see no physical way in which the inhabitant could get wet!
This is a very elegant and clever tent but unfortunately it fails on the basic requirement - to keep you dry! Love the light weight, easy pitch design and the double side doors but it leaks !! The vent panel below the hoop drips constantly in heavy rain and both occupants get wet. Also flysheet rests on inner tent at foot level so that doesn't work either !!! a shame 'cos otherwise a nice piece of kit.
