Got recommended this tent, is it good?
Gear QuestionI asked for tents on the cheaper side, but this seems like too good to be true.
Edit(since I can’t edit the post): am planning on going with another person (two in total but will probably use it for myself otherwise. Is a 2 person tent enough?
a 2 person tent is for 1 person. A 4 person tent is for 2 people. Silly? Perhaps. I would only share a 2 person tent with someone I really like. There won't be much spare room for gear.
She’s my sister, so not much more people I’m as close to.
If you look at the diagrams for how two people are to fit into the tent, you may find that you are NOT two person tent close to anyone! The pictures show two people in mummy bags, lying opposite to each other, so your feet are in the other person's face (and vice versa), and your backpack is your pillow and is the only gear in the tent. A three or four man is far more comfortable.
I find that rainfly style is useless if it actually rains. A drizzle is doable, but it is nearly impossible to stay dry in a downpour. The overhang doesn't fully block the door, and rain bouncing off the ground or being driven by the wind will soak the tent.
Ok yeah I see it now lmao
You shouldn’t be “2-person-tent-close” with your sister. Get the 4 person Sundome. It’ll last for years and it’s perfect for 1-2 people.
Yep i saw the way people sleep in them. I heard people say it’d be stuffy with gear, but that seems a bit smaller than advertised. I’ll definitely be getting a larger size.
