Our ratings (out of 10)
1 to 10, compared with the whole market. Each says what it's based on. How we score
Weight
From maker's figures 6/10How much it adds to your pack. This is the whole tent: two people sharing can split it. 6: A bit better than average.
Vango's trail weight of 1.6 kg (1.8 kg total) is in the 1.5–1.99 kg band.
Rain protection
From maker's figures 8/10How well it keeps out heavy, long rain. 8: Clearly better than most.
Fly 3,000 mm is in the 3,000 mm+ band, and Vango's page gives the 70D ripstop nylon groundsheet as 6,000 mm, over 2,000 mm, so nothing is taken off. The printed figure alone gives 8 at most: a 9 or 10 needs 3 reviews that say it stays dry in real storms.
Wind
Estimate from maker's specs: maker's season rating (fewer than 3 reviews about wind) 5/10How steady it stays in strong wind on open ground. 5: Does the job. Average for wild-camping gear.
No published review says how it copes with wind, so this is an estimate from the maker's season rating.
Space
From maker's figures 5/10Room to lie, sit up and keep kit inside. 5: Does the job. Average for wild-camping gear.
Bergfreunde gives an interior of 220 x 110 cm: 2.20 x 1.10 = 2.42 m² (a straight rectangle), so 1.21 m² each for two, in the 1.15–1.34 band. Only 110 cm wide, so two wide mats will be tight.
Packed size
From maker's figures 8/10How much room it takes in your rucksack. 8: Clearly better than most.
Packs to 41 cm long x 12 cm across: 3.1416 x 6 x 6 x 41 = 4,637 cm3, so 4.64 L, in the 4-6.9 L band.
In short
Good for
- Two people sharing a light, quick-to-pitch tent on three-season wild camps
- Backpackers who want two doors and two porches in a tent that packs to 4.6 L
- Walkers who carry a trekking pole and can use it as the extra brace the brow pole sleeve is made for
Strengths
- Trail weight 1.6 kg (1.8 kg packed) for a two-door, two-porch tent
- Packs small: 41 cm long and 12 cm across, about 4.6 L
- Semi-freestanding hub pole and an inner-first pitch, so the fly can be left behind on warm nights
- Fly 3,000 mm and groundsheet 6,000 mm, with taped seams on both
Weaknesses
- Only 110 cm wide inside, so two sleepers need narrow mats
- Pitches inner first, which is awkward in heavy rain
- No independent test or review found, so wind stability, pitching and durability are estimates, not reviewed scores
